Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
Hi,
A patch was released today, I believe, for Xara DPX to 12.6.2.49603. Previous patch was 12.6.2.49367.
There is no indication as to what has been fixed or done. I checked the web site.
The update message popped up automatically on my Surface Pro 4 when I opened Xara, but not on my desktop - I check for an update.

patch is installing on my desktop right now...
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
Only thing I can say for certain is the bug I reported about CMYK objects going to an RGB PDF appear fixed...Thanks, Xara!

It would be great if we could get access to a "changelog" like most (internet) programs to point out what bugs are fixed, features, added, etc. The "what's new" page on the Xara site is not a very handy reference and over time will only get worse with highlights all over saying dates.
Can you provide this, Xara?
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
Once installed Xsara works much faster. Until now, there was a problem with outlines and shadows - especially on big files. Now it is ok.
I have written to support my other fixes - we will see if they will take into account my requests. You also write because Xara will be a great program

You are right - Info Xara is very unreadable
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
Hi Guys,
You can find the updates and their details, changes, features etc. via the support website - https://support.xara.com/ , which includes links to the xara website and the releasenotes file.
Thanks,
Ben
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
cheers Ben edit - can you confirm the details are there for this latest release?
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
Hi handrawn,
Sorry to be unhelpful, but not really - There are loads of really minor changes that have little to no impact, and so writing up release notes or documenting them externally would be useless/ make it so the actual useful release notes are lost. TalkGraphics sticky threads and support.xara.com site are the places to find information regarding updates and changes.
Thanks,
Ben
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
pity - because I think the whole point of this thread was that we do not know what was fixed

so why then bother to do them? why treat your customers as not important enough to decide for themselves ? why are you so afraid of documentation, do you not have the resources to do it properly?
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
Here are a couple of examples from Magix Video Pro X of patches that were sent out in the last week. We don't require any more information than this, except when there are new features. Xara should just simply add in a small text file of bug fixes like Magix does. Users would like to know if a bug that they have encountered has been fixed so that they don't have to go and check each time.
Changes in version 15.0.3.154:
* Fixed error with automatic updates
Changes in version 15.0.3.148:
* Fixed problem with choppy playback/frozen playback marker
* Fixed graphics driver crash when a degenerated state is reached using rotation/mirror
* Fixed missing sound after project is loaded
* Fixed single video frame being read at the false position
* Now, all associated keyframes are removed when an effect is removed or reset
* All OFX plug-in effects now look the same with and without optimized preview
* Fixed problems with animated position sliders in OFX plug-ins
* Fixed cut-off text for alpha material in the chromakey dialog
* Fixed 6K material file import errors in GH5
* Fixed export cancellation for DVD with AC-3 audio

I am HAPPY to say that one of my postings from the past regarding missing parts of an illustration in wireframe view has been rectified!
THANK YOU XARA!!!

This is what Serif does:
https://community.serif.com/forum/pa...ncement-19-0-2
It is pulled from their JIRA bug database. It doesn't take much effort to produce.
Re: Xara DPX update to 12.6.2.49603
