Version 10 programs - What do you think might be next?

Please let me see the fully rendered arrow with its arrow head during a drag.

I 100% agree.

Also I wich I could create my own arrow...

I DREAM TO ADD SOME THINGS LIKE THIS TO XARA
AND SOME ADDS TO MAKE XARA WORK SYMMETRICAL LIKE WARPING OBJECT IN TWO DIRECTION OR FOUR IN THE SAME TIME

PRO THE CLIPART GALLERY TO VIEW THUMPS FOR ANY KIND OF GRAPHICS FORMAT DIPINDING ON SYSTEM ADDS DIRECTLY , ADDS LIKE sagethumbs FROM https://code.google.com/p/sagethumbs/
AND GHOST SCRIPT
http://sourceforge.net/projects/ghostscript/
WITHOUT BUILDING XARA THUMPS FOLDER
BEST WISHES

Hi
I want to add some needs
Add slicer tool with ability to draw a custom line to slicing with .
In star tool had great style working symmetrical i hope it can be in some other Xara tools
Add magnet tool or sculpting like tools with something like soft selection like in 3D software
Add lathe tool or add to extrude tool as option
Add some 3d material feeling you can borrow them from Photo Impact or RealDraw
Add Arc tool
BEST WISHES

I agree with the line start - ends updated and I would add merged into one tool. As in add symbol to selected end. Ie add arrow head to both ends of line :-)

...Add slicer tool with ability to draw a custom line to slicing with...

If I understand you right, draw the line extending beyond the boundaries of the object/image, select both and press ctrl+4

Thanks zaphodeist I remember that but I ask for a direct tool
In all of my suggestion I know many ways to do any thing in Xara but I ask for easy and direct tools
in clipart gallery i can't see thumps for EPS files and other vector files WMF EMF CDR and i ask to use the system to view files that will save time .

I would like to see a Bone/Joint system or... something similar to PhotoShop's Puppet Warp.

Don't know if its possible, but I'd like to see gradients/fades on a curve. The existing gradients by linear, elliptical, rectangular fit many concepts but does not fit variated needs. I'd like something that works like text on a curve, but gradients on a curve instead to gradients of color or transparency.

Photoshop and GIMP (yes, I know they are image editors, which is a different animal than vector) both have a "bump map" feature (although something currently in Xara is defined as "bump map", what I'm speaking of is something different). A bump map is a layer of grayscale colors and shapes painted, or placed shapes if vector that affect the layer beneath it. White is high elevation, while black is low elevation and grays varied between. Applying a bump map onto another layer imposes visual indicators of depth in a dramatic and obvious way. For my existing fantasy cartography needs - a bump map feature is the only thing I am missing to be able to do all of my maps primarily using XPD only.

If those two features ever appeared, I'd be completely happy.

@ gamerprinter: In the 32 bit version of DP there is a live effect called emboss that is very good. It has settings for things like elevation, light intensity, light angle, angle of incidence, shine, reflection, and more.
