LOST MY "SHAPES" FOLDER IN LOCAL DESIGNS GALLERY
Hi-
I recall recently updating the latest Designer ProX version
and suddenly I find my entire "SHAPES" folder is gone from the
local designs gallery. Looks like a lot of the website themes I had painstakingly
downloaded are also missing.
Not sure how to get the shapes folder back specifically.
Anyone else experience same?
Any thoughts or advice on how to remedy most appreciated! '-)
THANKS, BOB

I'll see if someone from Xara can respond to this. Won't be until Monday though.

Bob, it is possible you have fallen foul of the change introduced at v16.1 release: https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...m-Version-16-1.
Your old downloads are still available.
In your Local Designs gallery, click the Disc designs button and enter a path %localappdata%\Xara\XtremePro\16\Cache\designs\eng \components or go down as far as the Shapes folder and click the Add button.

Thanks Acorn-
Tried that and it told me there war no INDEX for same and asked if I would like to add one.
So I did and basically saw an added index below which leads to the cache etc. There's a shapes folder
in that "tree" but nothing there but one "square" and blanks showing.
I read the other thread you linked me to, tried that and basically the same.
It looks like I'm stuck. If I reinstall from the 16 exe, it'll then ask me to update
which in turn will bring me right back to where I am now.
I guess I'll have try their support.
THANK YOU for responding so quickly to my query
and the other info provided! Appreciated!

Bob, do do that.
Magix and xara need to understand real world issues like this.
Shapes are available through the Online Content Catalogue > Components > Print & Web Components > Shapes.
I hope you are aware if you right-click on the Components folder in the Local Designs gallery, and pick Download All, this will take the OCC's Components and load into your local cache, all in one (long) go.

ACORN THAT DID IT! I hadn't done that in so long
I had forgotten about the RIGHT CLICK on folder.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE REMINDER!
I work with so many softwares from print to audio to video to animation
that it's oft hard to keep track of all the nuances etc.
Your help put a smile on this ol' guy's face. :D
THANKS!
