Try setting your pixel width to a multiple of 16. I found I had problems when it wasn't a multiple of 16.

Yes, there'll be disadvantages to consider - or yes, it should work?

What a difference a night's sleep makes! I don't know why I didn't think of this before but I guess the obvious solution is to make a new html page with nothing on it apart from the gif, or jpeg etc....

Lol :D :)

That's worth knowing. I must add some Alt tags to my site.



At the moment, the tab just seems to pick up an arbitrary title (usually the name of the associated web domain AFAICT). I think it...

Let's say my web site has a button on Page A. When clicked, this button opens Page B which is a html file. In browsers that contain tabs (e.g. FireFox) page_b.html's title will be displayed in the...

That's really interesting because on my system, that screenshot is the only image that loads acceptably (although it's probably getting loaded from my local cache). It's the other pages that display...

Here's my first web site that I designed using XWD about a week ago:-

This morning I installed IE8, having previously used IE6 for several years. My site still...

Thanks for the suggestion but I think that would leave an ugly white gap at the bottom of my page. This was some kind of JavaScript solution. I wish I could find it now.... :(

[Edit...] I found...

This isn't really a Xara question but i thought someone here might know the answer.

When I was researching one of my problems (maybe about a fortnight ago) I stumbled across a web site that gave a...

Honestly, it isn't working. I know that the text is grouped because if I re-select the 'Arrange' menu, the option to Group is grayed out and the Ungroup option is available. So it's definitely...

No, I think that's already been answered (Ctrl+Alt+B ?). I was just wondering why, when I grouped my text, it didn't get converted to a graphic... :confused:

I tried that approach today. Here's the web page we were originally talking about.

Up near the top, there's some text that says "AAF support for Indamixx and Ardour". If I group that text it gets...

Thanks for all the tips guys. After unlocking the aspect ratio I figured out how to set dimensions to an exact number.

This way seems to work best.... type in the dimension you want to change....

Yes, you're right. I think I see what the problem might be. The instructions make a point of emphasising that the rectangle needs to be an exact number of pixels wide. I typed 16 pixels but I now...

Thanks for the tip but here's the effect that I'm getting if I set the outline to have no color. I think I need to remove the actual outline, rather than have a transparent outline.

Actually, this brings up another problem that I haven't yet managed to figure out....

If I copy an existing line of text (say, from one of the templates) I see a ruler looking very much like the...

Thanks. I'm working on another problem at the moment but I'll experiment with this tomorrow.

I almost got this to work by following the Help instructions (i.e. creating a long, narrow rectangle, giving it a graduated fill and then setting it as a repeating background. The only problem was...

Take a look at this web page. Depending on your display resolution, you'll probably see a white page with a graduated blue background. If you resize the width of your browser, the white page stays...

I created this web page which includes some bullet points. I managed to sort out the hanging indent requirement by reading the help file - but for the bullet point graphic I just used a character...

I think I will..! :D

Thanks for the info, Sledger.

I've been looking in Xara's Help file for tips about using transparency. I can see how to set transparency for an entire object - but suppose I only want the background to be transparent? For...

May I ask a question that's related to this one? I'm still trialling Xara WD but I'm sufficently impressed that I expect to be making a purchase any day now.

My only gripe has been with the fact...

Suppose I have a largish graphic image (say a screenshot) that I need to display when the user presses a button on my website. Firstly, how do I program the button to display a file and secondly, how...
