One of the things I asked for was an auto backup of all files with a timer (every 10 minutes, ect...) and the brushes fixed for ALL users!! Then reading all the threads all over XaraX forums I finally have another one.
Instead of depending on the icons, which I just don't tend to use very often (they are too small and I don't pay too much attention to them except for the side bar on the left where the main tools are located) or having to access the Galleries from the pulldown menus:
I would like a side bar put in that would stack the galleries with side tabs but they are docked on either side of the work space, not floating around in the way all the time.
So if you wanted the Fill Gallery you click on that tab and Wha La' you have all the fill folders ready at a glance, the same with all of them. Color Palettes could be brought in as well and the one on the bottom could have an off and on option giving more room at the bottom of the work area. I tend to work 'deep' not 'long' with my images.
I know it's reminecent of PhotoPaint but that was one of the features that I liked very much from version 9 on up. They are a called "dockers" and you can turn on and off as many as you want. It's a handy tool.
I need my tools in front of me, big as life and with the dockers in PhotoPaint they are right there and I make better use of them.
Like the layers gallery. I read how helpful they are and yet I don't use them because they aren't there in front of me, and those little floating panels are too much in the way. I can't stand those floaters!!!
