I am about to install another copy of Xara Xtreme shortly and I propose setting my defaults as follows:-
Paper Size - A4 Landscape
Page Unit - Pixels
Colo(u)r Units - 0-255
Major Spacing - 100pix
Number of Subdivisions - 10
and
SS-Kalm's colour template

Are there any other defaults that you would recommend and why?

Also, I have noticed Talkgraphics users making use of the grey scrapboard? area for other purposes - can they elaborate how and why they make use of this area please?

Thank you
