Can Xara Webdesigner 6 do the same as Menu Maker?

[ewsg]

Hello,

I just purchased Xara Webdesigner 6, and I know that it creates dhtml menus, navbars, etc.

Can it create the same things that Xara Menu Maker does, or this last one has more features?

Thank you for your help.

The navbar maker & functions in Web Designer 6 are a direct descendent of and replace the need for MenuMaker.

Great, sledger!

And regarding Xara3D 6: it is an unique tool, with features not found in any other Xara software. Is this correct?

Thanks!

[steve.ledger]

Correct, but please post questions about Xara3D in the correct forum.

Ok. Sorry, Sledger.

Thank you!

Hi,

Just a question, please:

Can Xara Webdesigner 6 do the same type of menus and navbars as for example all the displayed on the below page, made with Menu Maker?

Thanks.

Although the exact same menu templates are not included with Web Desinger, you can create those navbar styles using the drawing tools provided.

Glad to know, sledger.

Thanks again for your help.

Is there a step by step guide you could point me to that would show me how to do that?

When I try and edit the provided Designs Gallery navigation bars I have to un-group it to so many levels that I can't ever put it back together once I get it the way I like it. I think if I could see a button and then nav bar created from scratch. . . a REAL simple one. . . I could "get" it but right now I get really lost in the whole naming, soft selection, layers business.

Hello Wegg,

I would like to ask the same question you asked.
