    Hmm the text one makes some sense to me and might be handy in the long run (at least for paragraphs of text rather than say logo/image design) and it will also help prevent the problem that problem people would get when their exported web text didn't match slightly stretched text in the editor. I guess you should be able to hold alt and stretch it though which currently you can't.

    It also looks like the behavior is different for the different text areas, so text columns and text boxes wrap with horizontal handle movement and a simple text object resizes keeping aspect ratio. I think I like this change but not so much the affects on photo resizing.

    about sums it up Xtom , nothing against change if it is useful and does not take away other useful things [which has unfortunately happened in the past] -

    it would be fine if it:

    1} was properly selectable in options
    2] worked on what it was useful for, without unintended consequences elsewhere - no one from Xara has said what this is actually for in any meaningful way, it's not in release notes [or did I miss it] - we have what Frances passed on, but that's just a statement of application, not 'how this should work' - is there any detail in the manual? - I don't know because I am not upgrading, I will download the updated trial version now it is available and see if there is anything I can add - but it would be really useful if we were told what this was supposed to be for in detail

    The Paste Position feature is broken too.

    Create two different rectangles in two different places. Copy one rectangle Ctrl+C then use the Paste Position toolbar button. It moves it to a position nowhere near where you copied.

    I was trying to match up object positions across different pages and stumbled on it.

    Well that's strange, I tried it again just now and it is working. It was definitely pasting out of position for me earlier. I did a computer restart just a while ago so maybe that sorted something.

    ah these things happen to us all

    paste position is not something I use much, as opposed to paste replacing selection which I do
