OK - update - I finaly had a chance to play a little with Xara in Windows 7. After creating a default template I prefer, Xara won't use it on start up. Also it won't open to full screen (which is how I end each session). If I open the template after Xara opens, it has the correct settings, but won't use it on initially opening (like it does in Vista). I'm thinking registry entry, but don't which one yet.
