Just Launched: Xara Web Designer 10

We have just released v10 of Web Designer and Web Designer Premium. You can find details on our site @ http://www.xara.com/web-designer/whats-new/ but here’s a brief overview of the main enhancements:

• A responsive web design feature. Create variants for different devices, exported as a single HTML file, the best variant for each device is automatically displayed (for those of you interested in the technology, it uses CSS media queries to determine which variant to display). It’s a genuinely WYSIWYG solution that gives you control over how your site will appear on any device – and of course there’s no coding required. You can see an example at http://xaragroup.magix.net/vue2/
• Supersites. A new way to create eye-catching mini-sites, either single page scrolling sites or with transition effects. The best way to explain this is to point you to a few examples: here's a Supersite with transitions http://xaragroup.magix.net/menu1/, the same design as a scrolling Supersite http://xaragroup.magix.net/menu3 and another Supersite with transitions http://xaragroup.magix.net/islands1 (big photo warning on this one)
• New & fast flicker free page transition effects for presentations and Supersites
• 10 new web themes, plus new photo slider and social media widgets
• Smart Shapes, a new & easy way to create some of the most commonly required drawn shapes
• An Online Content Catalog for better browsing of themes, widgets, Smart Shapes, graphic templates etc
• A Scale to Fit option, very handy for presentations (there are some other presentation enhancements too) and in some cases Supersites

In addition to the information on our website, you can find detailed info in our release notes @ http://www.xara.com/webdesigner/notes (a scrolling Supersite) and of course don’t miss Gary Priester’s First Look on the Xara Xone @ http://xaraxone.magix.net/xwd10/ (a responsive scrolling Supersite)
