The issues with the line width control are fixed, and will be sorted in the final release version.

Thank you ... now how about layers in anim mode?
That is, the ability to have more than one layer of frames?

That also would be wonderful .. or is that being too hopeful?
Or too greedy?

Certainly it would be not only very useful but also a great additional selling point.

(not forgetting a button to reverse frame order)

The customer is ALWAYS right ... well, sometimes, anyways ...

I always missed an indicator on the rulers for the exact middle of a page (horizontal and vertical and for every page size) Now we first have to draw a rectangle in exactly the same size as the yellow borders (and click twice) to find it. It's a minor thing, but if it's not too much work for the team, can this be done in Pro?

That's a huge job - not for Pro - and not likely within the medium term future. There are more important thigs to do.

That one will be a hidden option in the next Pro release.

That's a good idea. There are number of ways we could help align to the center of a page, and it's been on the list for some time. Doubtful that will be in the next Pro release - we're really just in bug fix mode now.

Many thanks for prompt feedback it is appreciated.

Can't it be a good old XaraXtreme update (and in Pro of course) ?

Normally, CTRL+L toggles the ruler. However, when editing the new advance text it highlights a line of text.

I don't think I ever seen a short-cut in Xara ever have two different functions.

Ctrl+W toggles the case of the character to the right of the cursor.

Any chance of allowing Ctrl+W to do the same for a selection of characters?

Not sure whether this has been mentioned. I was wanting to align some cutting marks (lines)with the page boundary, this means setting one of the X or Y dimensions to zero. XXP would not allow this. Up popped “Sorry, that entry is invalid. Please enter a positive non-zero number in the Width and Height fields.”

I have been able to successfully align images and cutting marks etc with page boundaries to zero in XX.
