    Great, Charles! It's good to hear you think long-term for XX, that's very reassuring to us long-term users. I discovered (Corel)Xara exactly ten years ago this summer, so I think I qualify as a long-term user.

    Yeah I was speaking with Mick Carling from Xara the other day and he said it's less far off than I think - I am getting excited too.

    I had a pre-release of Xara Studio (before Corel Xara) from a programmer who worked for Xara who visited a flatmate - so I think I qualify as the oldest user of Xara! The dude's name was Olly.

    Klaus -- just FYI, your first link (http://www.klausnordby.com/xara) returns "Forbidden".

    Hello

    I bought the beta of Xara Studio, when I saw it at the Windows show in early 1994. It's abilities and speed were amazing then and in many ways still are now.

    I can't help it James but I have to ask: "How far off did you think it was?" I'm getting even more exited..........

    maby more than just text-search..
    what about element-search like
    activate all elements with green outlines and yellow fill to change them all in one..

    Yes, that would be fantastic! I miss especially that objects remember their individual object center.

    What i personally never understood is the XPE inside xara (i never(!) used it, for pixel manipulation i use photoshop because i do always more than enhancing/cropping/shading). In my opinion the focus should be on vektor-tools/painting rather than any bitmap manipulation, but that's just me.

    I wrote some ideas for some handy tools in this thread:

    James -- You noted Olly gave you a copy. He wasn't allowed to do that so now he must be fired. Poor dude was so close to retirement too. He'll probably never be able to find more work after the disgrace. I also hear his wife has left him since reading he visited your flatmate when he should have been home changing diapers.

    Regards, Ross http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

    PS -- Olly, wherever you are, keep your chin up.
