@Rob-Xar, could you align SVG Export dialog to match those of JPEG, PNG and the recent WebP formats?

We used to be able to change TEXT LINE colour with a simple right click on the colour bar ... Now we have set text background (which arguably is used less) ... wouldn't it be simple to have both. Resetting text line colours is now a fiddle (still doable but fiddly). It was so much easier the other way.

But dare I change the page background width or height by even a tiny-weeny single pixel and the damn shadow thing reappears. >:)
Thanks Egg. I thought that was just me.

I do all of my stereogram print work at 300dpi. But if I create a repeating panel that is 163px wide and then create a bitmap copy, the resolution is 163.2px
Egg suggests I use 288dpi but I need my images to be 300dpi.
Is there any way to fix this so that the bitmap image creates at the designated pixel size in even pixels.

When you hit page up or page down in an Acrobat PDF at 100% each page is centered and in the exact same position. Same thing when using the scroll wheel.
If I am working with a book that has a lot of pages and want to go through the book quickly and look at the spreads, when I use page up or page down, the page rapidly becomes off-centered.
Making this work as efficiently as a PDF file would be tremendous.

Very frustrating for all.
My approach would be to take the panel and scale to 256px wide.
Then Create Bitmap Copy with a dpi of 191, not 192.
Then rescale the bitmap back to 163px wide; its dpi will now be 300. It is probably 299.97546dpi , but who's counting.

Gary, switch off Multiple Page View: PU/PD then stick to the exact position for each page (when they are all the same height).

Brilliant.
My whole point with the 300dpi bitmap creation is not that we need a work around, but we need it fixed so there does not need to be a workaround.
My workaround is much simpler, if the width is 143.2px, I select the .2 and delete and hit enter. But I should not need to do this.

I was trying to avoid any distortion and I appreciate that it is not working correctly.
I always try to aim for multiples of 2 in pixels or to force the best Xara accuracy, work in millipoints.
Why it is wrong is another matter.

Re: Usability, workflow and bug fixes
Thanks guys, I'm going to be logging all of these issues shortly to be investigated.
