Marco, unless I have been asleep, there is still no v16.1. It is still Xara Designer Pro X 16.0.0.55162 DL x64 Oct 9 2018.Quote:

all I know is what Rob said here

Ver 16.1 not yet here afaik but due 'very shortly'
It is interesting how other vendors operate.
I have Pinegrow and in the same period I just mentioned, there have been 5 version updates including a major release. At the same time following these, there have been bug fix releases within days.
I am still searching for the optimal cross-over pint in using the strengths of both applications together.

ok I think this may be what you are looking for:
Attachment 123529
note the 'new since march 2019' boxes
the line width adjustment might even be useful.... depending how it works
oops forgot link:
https://www.magix.com/index.php?id=2...NgjR_rUF30Z5CI
well had a look at the xdpx ver 16.1 stated to be march 4th 2019 [program date line actually feb 14th] on the xara site:
can't see any difference to the way line preview works to version 15.1, so unless this is a web only thing I must be missing something.. if it is just a preview of uniform width change not much of a deal for me anyhow
more to the point, paste size still crops bitmaps rather than resize - if youre only doing one you can unclip, but if you are doing lots in one go you have to now do this one by one - what is the rationale behind changing a useful feature by removing an equally useful one, rather than just adding the new one?
makes no sense
@ Marco D - 16.1 was released on magix.com and then xara.com during the course of today (English and German only so far). What's New @ https://www.xara.com/designer-pro/whats-new/
HI
how exectly does the line preview work - and what happens if you have your mouse wheel set to zoom?
and is the crop bitmap when pasting size deliberate?
thanks
Scroll your mousewheel directly over the line or shape outline.
We haven't made any changes to bitmap cropping in 16.1 so I'm just asking about this.

hi kate - it was changed in ver 16.0 sorry
the mouse scrolling effect is not working for me - designer pro x ver 16.1.0.56164 DL x64 feb14 2019
not on cintiq pro 24, or asus PB278-4 monitors with either logitech or HP mouse
I'll check the GTX 1070 drivers.....
video up to date
so unless I need to be in a certain tool [tried it in select and freehand] or with certain settings, or it just dosnt work in the trial, I'm at a loss...
Sorry Kate, not getting any such behaviour.Quote:

thanks kate that does work :)
unless you do ctrl+1 to join all the editable shapes - guess that was what was done in the video on the update page?Quote:

I was a bit puzzled too. Asked and apparently the designer created the 'text' with the Freehand & Brush tool. Full marks for skilled use of the tool, but yes, perhaps a bit confusing!Quote:

ah, got it. Yes there's something like this is the wish list already, I've added a link to your post. You're right, not in 16.1 I'm afraid.
Thanks, Kate
