1. it'd be nice to customise some more shortcut keys. at the moment i have right mouse button set to shift-click so it's the same as artworks, which was the start of xara. but now i can't get any context menus at all as far as i can tell. the "mneu" button to the right of the right-hand start key doesn't seem to do anything.
on that note, why isn't the middle button customisable? if i could set that to bring up the pop-up menu it'd be identical to artworks. then again, i'm getting used to using it as the push tool.
2. middle button as the push tool has reminded me that artworks had a really useful function where you held down alt and you were temporarily on the pointer tool. when you let go you went back to whatever tool you were using before that. very very useful, more useful than hitting f2 to get selector and then trying to work out which f-key gives the tool you were just using.
3. could the fill gallery be able to store the user's gradients? i've got a nice chrome effect gradient i often use, and at the moment i have to open a xara file where i've used it and copy attributes over to the other file.
4. when exporting as flash, and then importing the .swf file you get into flash, you have to scale to 133.33% before you get the same pixel size. no idea what's going on here. i can live with it of course but it's not ideal, and it seems like something which would be easy to fix.
