Xara X Release Candidate

[gwpriester]

I have been asked my Xara to make the final beta (release candidate) for Xara X only available to members of the Insiders Area.

This is not being done to slight non-members but for security reasons.

The download link will appear on Page 1 of WebXealot 19 which will be posted in about 2 hours from now (as soon as I finish editing it and get it uploaded to the i/us server).

I appologize for the muddle [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif[/img]

OK The WebXealot 19 is published and available inside the Insiders Area.

The final beta has a 15-day limit, by the way.

Help. I downloaded the NEW beta and I'm still having a problem when I edit brushes.

I make a change, say moving the spacing slider further to the left, click the SAVE button, and the slider just pops back to its original position.

Is anyone else having this problem? I was SO hoping it would be fixed by now.

Or is it MY problem? Am I doing something wrong?

For the short period I could use the Release candidate (Now it doesn't open, due to error 600), I found that the "create bitmap copy" couldn't change the dpi setting.
The resolution remained fixed at 96 dpi.

Neither I found a solution to the problems of xara .eps export.

I think they should just drop that troublesome export filter and just advise users to export high-res TIFs to be separated in Photoshop (and, if some vector data is needed in the job, to export those parts as AI for import into PS or the page layout program). The EPS export is just causing people too much trouble! So Xara: save your programming efforts for fixing up XaraX!

The greyed DPI setting in the create bitmap dialogue is a temporary situation, the full release will restore DPI control.
Control of DPI on exported bitmaps in the EXPORT bitmap dialogue is still fully functional.

The import/export of EPS has been much improved in this version.

Xara please don't remove eps export, I devoloped tricks and work-arounds for those problems.

XaraX without eps export would be useless for me.

Tiff format cannot replace eps files when I have to deal with files that have small black text (for instance).
And last but not least, I found that many print shops accepted eps files without problems after I tested them with ghostview.

So what does us non-members do when the current beta runs out. I really need a working copy of Xara X and I'm going to face huge problems without one... please tell me that they're not just going to leave us stranded until the release version comes out.

Anybody know anything???
