Re: x9 - no new drawing tools
Does someone has experience with the function can be read on http://www.xara.com/uk/designer-pro/whats-new/
"Windows 8 touch compatibility
v9 is now compatible with Windows 8 touch devices."
So independently from the hardware the V9 should work on tablets with Windows 8? Which we have is Fujitsu Stylistic M532

But thanks for the reply anyway :)
It's not good that we have to rely on Photoshop to accomplish things like this, especially when I want to stay away from Adobe products. This is why I purchased XDP in the first place.
I understand your frustration Fred. I hope things work out for you.

Yep works fine I'm now using win8.1 on a Surface Pro and it works fine too. X the previous version works well on my tablet as well but the pen interaction is a bit funky at times, full width strokes occasionally. This v9 update seems to have fixed that. But removal of the sketch mode button on shape builder and eraser is a bad look. C'mon Xara...

Shape Builder is now known as the 'Shape Painter'.
You can return the sketch mode button using XaReg2.4
