Show Us Your Xtreme 4 created Website!

[camelot217]

Hi all.

Here is a site I designed in Xara and uploaded. It is not done and needs to be optimized and tweaked more. I just wanted to show others that you can make a fairly complicated page in a very short time. This would have taken me 10 times longer using DW. It's a busy page with a lot of information.
It is meant for people that have already seen an 30min infomercial so they are (hopefully) pre-sold.

I have question before I go any further with this. There are more paged to be added and one is much longer than the ones I have so far. Can I change the length of one specific page? When I change the length (options>page) they all change.

Here is my 1st entire site www.maulbetsch.com

the second link "tree service" will show an image out of place... I don't know why?

the error repeats...

I now know that I need to make the images smaller for it to load faster...

Thanks for your input...

An a square bullet is ALT + 254 like so: ■

Below is a list of ALT codes and the character which you can play with for use on your site.
Also listed are the Web Safe fonts (as mentioned in the Xtreme Help file under HTML section)

Unless I've done something very stupid, it seems that not all of those symbols are available in all fonts. Specifically the square bullet isn't available in Tahoma. So I've changed to a circular one.

Steve - Or anybody with a Mac, do these extended characters map OK in a Mac browser?

Useful list at any rate.

Gary, yes
You can install SAFARI for Windows to test your pages for Mac'ompatibility

It's the browser that enterprets the HTML code for the ASCII extended character code.

Stick to ARIAL for the ALT characters, format your text to the font you need.

Have a look here for HTML equivalents to the ALT+num key presses

Doh!!! How stupid of me. I don't know why I had a blank about using a different font for the bullet - particularly as I'd previously used Webdings!

Thanks for being patient with me!

There is a registry setting you can manually edit to disable all pages being the same.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Xara\XtremePro\4.0\Opti ons\Preferences\AllPagesTheSame

Or I have created easy to use executables to do this for you.
See the XaraXone Shareware page for this and other Xtreme 4 hacks.
(or see alternative link in my sig)

The two you need for this are:
AllPagesTheSame-OFF.exe
AllPagesTheSame-ON.exe

*The usual caveats apply when editing the Windows registry

Thanks, that worked like a charm.

Charles,

It's pretty outrageous that people are having to patch the registry to do this kind of thing. I can't really understand why it's allowed to continue.

I don't really see why this should even be a registry entry since for some documents you may want all pages the same, yet for some others you may not.

I agree, and especially now with the new web creation features, people will use this software more for website design. More than not you will deal with different size pages in a multi page website.
