Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
Agreed. File sizes were identical so the presumption is that the files are identical. It is a rather obscured and circuitous procedure. I am up and running. One oddity. The Button Size options in the Control Bars screen seems only available in the White UI (Ctrl-Shft-Alt-S) and not the Grey UI. Not a deal breaker, but a small frayed thread. If you've not switched to the White UI then be cautioned that doing so dumps your screen customizations. Performing the keystrokes to return to the Grey UI does not reconstruct the lost customizations. My experience.
Thanks.
Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
the button sizing was depricated [or if you prefer, broken] when the dark UI was introduced - the light UI is not officially supported by Xara and so it may have it's own problems ....
switching either way has always reset customisations...
Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
Did not know The Light UI was not supported. Explains why it is so finicky. Thanks.
Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
Just an FYI. When I did the upgrade to Web Designer 15, I lost all my Custom FTP profiles (publish to other web host via FTP). Fortunately, I had them all in a spreadsheet and in Filezilla. Don't delete version 12 until you've checked that you have all your profiles added to version 15.
Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
I don't know why. I thought it was a matter of preference, I know some prefer the light ui but after one gets accustomed to it it's great, In fact I prefer it.
Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
What are the actual changes in v15? And what happened to 13 and 14? It's like Windows OS version numbers and wondering if Mr. Gates knows how to count... 1, 3, 3.1, 95, 98, 2000, XP, Vista, 8, 10. :p
Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
Add 'billion' to your numbers list for Mr. Gates.

Magix chose to jump to V15. There is no V13 or V14.

Re: Very confused about upgrade path...
This is going to put a lot of people's noses out of joint. Surely there should be a sticky topic for Pro X 15 on this forum? The first I knew of it was a pop-up when I launched Xara today, which gives me 4 days to buy v15 at a discounted rate, after which it will cost $300. No-one is going to pay $300 for one new feature. But now, after reading this and two other threads, I discover that I can upgrade for free because my subscription is still valid. Customers need to know this stuff or there will be plenty who'll just walk away from upgrades, as I was fully prepared to.
