Can you give us a link?
And did you refresh the page first (Ctrl + F5) ?

Xara does not make responsive mobile sites. You would have to manually position the text for 480 or your tablet version.
xara 365 makes responsive websites they say? what is there responsive then?Quote:

Responsive sites don't use fixed positions for the elements so the designer has less control over how the site looks. An advantage of responsive sites is that you don't have to worry about variants.
Responsive websites while easier for the designer, are not in my opinion the best direction because the content changes at each monitor or device resolution. Sometimes the results are less than attractive.
Xara's approach (which is not responsive in the true sense of the term) lets you design for one or more other variants, cell phone, tablet, big monitor. So while content can be shared among variants, the design of each variant is up to you the designer.
I like this because what I design for a normal computer monitor will be more complex. But when I design a variant for a mobile device, with often slower download speeds, I want to simplify the content to work specifically for that device.
The latest release of Web Designer makes this a little easier with Auto Fit To Page which gives you the ability to adjust the content to a different page size. But the designer still needs to tailor the material to work best with the browser size.
thanks for your info.Quote:

For help with text, look in the Help file under "Styles" Perhaps this post helps as well: https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...606#post584606.
With regards to graphics, you might want to use the Auto Fil feature that was just added to WDP. I don't have experience with it yet because I'm using XDP which has not been update yet.
