I created a simple one color solid brush.
When drawing a line and use a different brush color it looks OK in xara.
When it's exported as a PDF the selected color is ignored and it switches back to it's original color.
See the .xar document attached and export as a PDF.
Same thing happens in earlier versions of Xtreme (with your file).
Arrange>>Convert line to shape. Recolour.
Exports to PDF fine.
Yes that's what i started doing as a workaround. I'm working on a 40 page booklet with different brushes in various sections in the booklet. I need to convert them each individually and recolor them.. this takes forever..Quote:

Shift-clicking to change the colour works (and exports) in version 5 when opening a file created in version 4. (attached)
Smells like a bug after all.
Think it is a risky method of using brushes when exporting to PDF without changing to shapes.
