I love Xara

1. I love Xara.

2. I'm British.

3. I'm confused by the number of products and who gets the cash.

4. Magix bought Xara ??

5. British Xara emerged from the ashes ???

6. British Xara now has a product ????

Best regards
Confused of Penzance ( where it’s always sunny )

I have been to penzance, and indeed lizard, when it was not ;)

technically the reinvented xara is German, Xara GmbH, registered in Berlin... maybe they wanted to pre-empt Brexit ?

But Designer Pro+ (vs Designer Pro X) is being developed and frequently updated by Xara UK.

To be diplomatic I will say that Magix Designer Pro X is not being developed as aggressively.

I second the diplomacy ...

edit - Gary they are not xara UK they are xara GmbH - it is true there are places in uk where development take place, but that is different

It all started as a Canadian (proud to be one) company called Corel. Holly crap, the prices are crazy on Corel Draw.

hey no, xara had an 'understanding' with corel way back, whicch went sour.. and they parted company [pun intended], but xara was british at birth

[btw corel painter has no equal]

No it is a British product form Computer Concepts call Artworks and originally ran on an Acorn (!) Archimedes. Corel was another Xara mistake.

By Corel-crazy, I suppose you mean £599 for lifetime access? (Buy it once, own it forever. Access to the current version only.)

Acorn

I'm not sure what I was hoping for.
I will continue to be a big fan of and ambassador for Photo and Graphic Designer.
