Dear Xara i want

For all who are not indifferent to XDP:
- Online open voting for the propagation model of the soft (as it is now/as it was)
- Online open voting for new tools(so that you can focus on what people really need)
- Roadmap for the year(it is asking for a long time and hopelessly)

and personally for me:
- corner tool
- snapping for Enhance Photo tool when resize frame
- mesh fill
- envelope tool that works with photos
- category "Favorites" for fonts
- The ability to affix tags to items in Local Designs Gallery and more importantly - the ability to "drag and drop" from page to Local Designs Gallery

Thank you for your attention. With hope, your user.

+1 I like all of these.

+1 and theese I suggest in earlier posts.

Hey,

I can talk to management about setting up a poll / vote for a set of do-able features.

"- snapping for Enhance Photo tool when resize frame" - I'm looking into what the status of this is as I know it's super annoying. For the time being, after selecting a photo with the selector tool, on the top toolbar if you click the first icon - show selection bound handles and resize it using those it should snap.

"- the ability to "drag and drop" from page to Local Designs Gallery" - you should be able to do this already? Is this not working for you?

Cheers
Rob

You really from technical support?).
Maybe I explained badly, but you'd be wrong in both cases.
I know how Selector Tool works). In this case, it does not interest me, as they are different tools and they work differently.
And believe me, drag FROM the page TO Design Gallery does not work for anybody ).

Hi,

Yep, from technical support.

Perhaps you could explain more in detail the problems you are having with screenshots and we can see what is happening and what you mean.

That would be nice.

I was joking when I said about the bad explanation. Please, just read the text carefully.

This program has a good foundation, I hope it could develop more in the graphic productivity department.
Some additions that would be great, in order of importance, more or less :

-Stroke width editor.

-Mould tool update (Subdivisions, working on bitmap)

-HSB and levels adjustments that works on vectors and bitmap alike (while preserving editability when converted to editable shape.)

-Join tool (productivity tool, while importing cad drawings for example)

-Transform nodes (Blobs to scale and rotate working on a point selection)

-Rounded corners (live fillet)

-UI update (Scalable UI that works nice at any resolution (or eyesight ;), Nice simple icons like online designer, Light or Dark UI)

-Dimensioning and annotation tool

-CMYK color space environnement..

-If a simple way to beef up the bitmap tracer existed that would be nice.

-Transform each

-Edit inside group -> Option too see rest of artwork.


Thanks and Happy holidays,

Marc

Hi, any chances of seeing this happening ?

Thanks.

I will also add something that would facilitate my everyday work in Xara Photo & Graphic Designer. Here are the most important for me which are missing in this program:
- Snapping to the path
- Pantone pallets
- Export your own color palette
- Offset path
- Transparent white color in bitmaps (the image is in 1-bit color mode)
- Intelligent removal of unnecessary nodes from the path (without affecting its shape)
- Graphic styles
- Macros
- Ability to set the fill of closed objects to no color by default to be able to save as template
- Mould tool update
- Corner tool
- Join tool
- Eye dropper (color and attributes picker)
- Bitmap trace update
- Brushes update
- Vector pattern (fill tool)

At the end, one more issue which hinders and prevents smooth operation is a visible thin line between shapes that do not overlap only with edges, eg after trimming shapes. This error does not occur in Adobe Illustrator.

I don't follow you here Pistashek. Can you upload an example?

This is an example:

Attachment 119924

Attachment 119923

Comparison of Adobe Illustrator with Affinity Designer. Xara program has the same situation as Affinity.

that s probably the anti-aliasing, especially if it 'comes and goes' when you zoom in and out

if so you can switch it off - xara window menu /view quality: change to 'full colour'

I know that only in Illustrator it works in the best display mode. When I turn off the anti-aliasing function, pixels are visible after the file is exported to the bitmap format. And here is the problem.
