Windows8 support

[Aciden]

Dear developers, in the new Xara Designer Pro version are you planning to include Windows8 support and interface suitable for sensor control like Ribbon or Modern UI (Metro UI)? It would be really handy to draw on tablet PCs with convenient interface.

And if you are considering adding a Ribbon-type interface, please please PLEASE include an option to turn it off, for those of us who despise the Ribbon with ever fiber of our being.

Xara Designer Pro X works very well in Windows 8 and so do the other versions.

What is there about the Metro UI that some people like it and some people despise it?

change

if you have a win7 system working great and it does just what you want - why change it - ok I don't need to yet, but as I have it set as far as is possible to be like XP, ccould I do this on win 8, will I be able to do it on win 9?

I appreciate the commercial need for new product, and for new features, but if I buy a licence I should have support for as long as I need it, or pay extra for as long as I need iit...

ok rant over

From my experiece Windows 8 isn't an upgrade but a let down. I will stick with Windows 7.
