    Default Xara Pro Movies

    Hi everyone,
    can anyone tell me why I am getting the message "unable to find path to Xara Xetreme" when I try open the Movies in Help in XaraPro. The movies are working fine in Xara Extreme, and also, there's always an also everytime I open XaraPro, the clipart as vanished and I have to download it once more. Last question Is it best to keep both Xara Extreme and Pro installed until the disc for XPro is sent in Jan.?

    Hi, Stygg...

    If you go the the Clipart Gallery in Pro, then click "Get Clipart," you can browse to the clipart folder in Xtreme. Click "Add" and all will magically show up in Pro!

    I'm keeping Xtreme-not-Pro installed because in that version, in the frame gallery everything is in the correct order.
    "Intbel" ... "Can't" is not an option.

    Compliance is futile. Resistance is futile. Just do your own thing an' ignore 'em.

    I know this is going to sound stupid but if you are only keeping Xtreme how will you continue to make the great Flash animations you make?

    I guess it's all what you are used to!

    Since I never worked with frames before, it seems entirely logical to me that the first frame I work with is Frame 1, the next Frame 2, etc., and that they should be shown sequentially just as they will be animated.

    But I guess those who first learn to read from right to left must find it difficult to learn to read a language which is read from left to right!

    I'll keep Xtreme for animated gifs only and for flash animations of more than a few frames.

    Pro will open the files okay.

    I agree.
    However, it is logical to have frame one at the bottom and frame two on top of that...

    Having the backround frame on top is daft.
    The background image is underneath all the other images ...

    I can't understand this reversal either. It would be better if we had a choice which way it was displayed. Background frames at the top do my head in.
