    Default Xara Xtreme 6 User interface

    looking at the screenshots from Xara's new Web Design 6, I can't help shivering about the user interface.
    Please Xara, if you plan to change the colours of the ui, reconsider or try to make it an option to revert to the stale grey we love!

    CTRL ALT SHIFT S

    and don't forget that doing this resets the toolbars to the default

    I've added this post so that this key combo is easy to find - I just spent 20 minutes searching for it!

    CTRL ALT SHIFT S

    CTRL ALT SHIFT S

    CTRL ALT SHIFT S

    I can't remember if anyone's asked this. Is it possible to save the toolbar config somewhere and reload it upon changing the interface?

    I can't say I'm totally surprised that this subject has come up again.

    I believe a poll was taken to see who preferred what.
    I think that this was just a poll and not a vote on whether Xara would change the UI

    I keep trying to use the dark UI, but find myself going back to the light UI.
    So, you can't say that I am not trying.

    I am lead to believe that Xara will not support the light UI if you have a problem. I hope that this is not the case though?!
    I'm sure someone in power can tell us.

    I do try from time to time as well, but frankly it's simply painful on the old eyes.

    It may have been mentioned in passing, but I hope that would not be the case in practice. I guess it referred to giving GUI-assocoated assistance, but I can't see Xara support saying "sorry, you switched back to the old grey gooey so we can't support your problem".
