Must have been a bad install.
After a clean uninstall and reinstall all is good now. Thank You

I'm curious if this is possible. I would rather look at the old UI. The black is hard on an old mans eyes for long periods....just a thought.

BTW, that's all that interested me in this persons post.
sorry.

Don't know if this belongs here, but what the heck, I'm sure one of the many helpful people here will answer my question. I have XP5, want to upgrade (online) but also want to order the manual, how do I go about both?

Sledger or one of the other moderators might know for sure, but I think you'll have to order those seperate.
I just upgraded yesterday and I do not remember seeing them together. I know that it's listed. Hope I'm wrong and Sledger will correct me. Be patient, they come through at least once twice a day on Sundays.

Hope this helps some.

actually if you upgrade from Xara Extreme 5 NOT PRO you DO get the manual. I have it in my hot little hands from upgrading from Xtreme 5 to Xara Designer Pro 6.

Cheers

Rolling On the Floor with that one!!!!

But ok.
I'm really liking it. It is so much more User friendly than xTreme was, it was good but this is Mo' Beta. thanks

Hi Folks,

I originally voted for the old GUI when there was a poll for it. I have to say that I've kind of gotten accustomed to the darker GUI after using it that way for a while. I still have a lot of trouble find the slide in the scroll bars but with a little hunt and peck I usually get it. If I was a commercial artist/designer, I would be upset because it does take time when you can't find the bar. Perhaps in the next upgrade that will be addressed as it seems to be the no. 1 concern with the gui.....

Otherwise, I'm starting to get used to it, not necessarily liking it that much yet.
