Imported images are turned black and white
Hi everyone long time no see... strange thing.. since updating my version of web designer pro 9, any images that I drag from my image folder goes from colour to black and white when dropped onto the page :confused: this isn't something that used to happen, strangely if I close the programme down and add an image it works for a few goes, then reverts to turning them black and white again, restarting the programme cures it temporarily.
Not withstanding I am being a muppet and missing something here - is it a known bug? or has the update got a "new" feature?
any help appreciated

This sounds like something worth grumping over.
Does this happen if you create a new document and then drag and drop images?
I'm wondering if somehow your document got corrupted somehow.

Hi GW, thanks for the prompt reply.
Well opened a new project and can drag and drop images with impunity, added a few boxes, lines, text boxes etc to make it interesting and it seems fine, as you say seems like some form of corruption, strange its only started doing it since I did the upgrade... works till I do some other action and go back to bringing an image in, then black and white until I reboot the programme, a bit of a pain.

OK Next step, http://support.xara.com/ File a ticket.
They may want to see your .web or .xar file to determine what the exact cause of this vexation and grumpiness is.

I have no idea, Ray. I should expect an instant confirmation that they received your ticket and someone will get back to you in this lifetime.
I think they have been having problems with some of their response systems and this could be part of that.
