Dear Xara...
Immediately found File > Test WebView2 lurking.
All the fun then of getting this message:

Dear Xara...
Any design file with a Page Background is still forced into having Website > Other Include webP images ticked regardless of its state on saving or closin the XDA.

Open Graph sounds like a really good add. If you designate an image Open Graph (new tab in the Web Properties menu) it will appear if you add a link to your website in Facebook or other social media.
Except... I added this Open Graph image to my website and checked to make sure it is in my files. It is. But when I added a link to gwpriester.com on Facebook it does not appear. Am I missing something?
Dear Xara...
The Open Graph addition looks interesting.
A few questions.
<meta name="twitter:card" content="summary_large_image" />
<meta property="og:type" content="website" />
<meta property="og:title" content="Acorn" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Wizzard" />
<meta property="og:image" content="index_htm_files/opengraph.png" />
<meta property="og:image:type" content="image/png" />
<meta property="og:image:width" content="1200" />
<meta property="og:image:height" content="631" />
- Why place the Open Graph Group in my MouseOff Layer as a hidden collection? It seems to still work in a hidden layer I created and labelled 'og'.
- Can I bypass the Open Graph dialog and simply create or import a suitable image, text block and background and directly use the Names of OpenGraph, OpenGraphDescription: blah blah, OpenGraphTitle: Earl of Dumbarton? Relabelling OpenGraph to XOpenGraph seems to prevent the og export. Also Image > Group Images set off, kills the export.
- I note the og height is not exporting as 630px.
- What define "twitter:card"?
- Does or can an og Group use all the Theme colours in a themecolorscheme.xar file?
- What is the character count limit for the OpenGraphDescription? You suggest 160 characters but there does not seem to be a limiter.
- Ditto OpenGraphTitle?
- If I clone the og Group, I get an opengraph.jpg file for the lower version. The most forward one gets "adopted". Neither jpg or png appear in ../index_htm_files/xr_files.txt.
- Does og accept WebP?

Just updated. On checking Help / Check for Updates returns nothing.
As for this update and the previous one(s) I had to resort to the online download(a fresh install) because the updater starts>crashes>second run>gives the message "you don't have enough permissions to run from this location"
I have administrator rights and have run the program as administrator(right click).
it may be securtiy software on your computer blocking the update - xara updates are rather pervasive
Sorry this accidentally was left in from an update from a development build, we'll be patching it shortly to remove it.Quote:
