Egg,

Thanks much for taking the time to respond. I'll definitely try the 640 x 480 sizing and see if that works better. What I did as a temporary work around was to make the background color...

I created a screensaver for a client which I installed on his new laptop with a screen resolution of 1280x900. To my surprise, the screensaver wasn't "stretched" to fill the screen. It appears to be...

Bill,

Here's the results of installing Xara3D 6 on Vista RC1. It installed without even a whimper. I've created just a few simple graphics and then saved them to the Desktop. On saving...

Hiya Bill,

Well, I'm more the "silent" type but I do read most all the threads/comments here often. I guess the only sure way to find out if Xara 3D is compatible is to go ahead and install the...

Well, thanks for voicing your personal preference re: installing Vista RC1 on your PC. However, RC1 will be long gone before even this year is over and the full public release version will be well on...

Has anyone tried installing Xara 3D 6 in Windows Vista RC1? I would like to hear about your experience.

THANKS!

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but when you use the "Export as Screensaver" option under "File", there is an option to choose which codecs you want to use. At least the list shows...

Hi Bill,

Actually, I've been around but haven't been active in the ongoing threads. I am faithful in reading most everything here.... "Need Input" constantly and learn from the wisdom of others.

I'm wondering if there is a way in Xara3D to create "text on a curve", such as the attached sample?

Thanks!

So, if I understand you right, Bill, if I were to "upgrade" to Xara Xtreme, I could uninstall my current version of Xara 1 and not lose anything?

I realize that this is probably going to be considered "off-topic", but since there is a sticky post here for the announcement of Xara Xtreme, I am hoping it will be allowed.

Quick Question: Is...

Some ISP antivirus scanners will detect ".scr", ".exe", etc., files inside of a compressed (zip/rar) file and still reject them. IF that happens what often works is to change the extension of the...

I'm hardly an expert on Xara3D, but I think you are using the wrong element to accomplish what you want to do. The "Design" feature applies only to the "oval" you see with the default "Xara3D" image;...

Correct! Unless you are using a FORMATTED CD-RW disc, you wouldn't be able to save the file directly to the disc as it needs to be "burned" by using a CD Burning application, e.g., XP's native CD...

This is why I added that IF the person had Windows XP, then no additional software would be needed. IF, however, he is running anything other than Win XP, then a 3rd party burning application will be...

Oooooops, a little correction of some misinformation is needed here. http://www.the-highway.com/Smileys/Eeeeeek.gif

1) If the O/S is XP, then it has it's own native CD-burning program (see here:...

John,

Again, thanks for your input. I'll give your advice a try and see if anything works out. If not, well.... they all work on my system. http://www.the-highway.com/Smileys/evilgrin.gif

John,

Thanks for taking an interest, at least in responding to my question. Yes, I have saved each of the different screensavers in different resolutions from the smallest to the largest. But that...

If you are asking about the "file" size, then they vary from 350K to 2 megs. I thought the smaller one would make a difference too but it was the same. We also tried reducing the acceleration rate of...

I've made several screensavers for a friend in Xara3D which work find on my own system but on his system (both Win XP SP-2) the animation is either "choppy" or "ghosting". I've tried all kinds of...

You also might consider Editpad Lite. I've been using the "Pro" version for years and find it indespensible for coding and other related text projects.

Eric (bcire),

I started a thread, back about a month ago, on this very subject. After installing SP-2, all the screensavers I created with Xara3D stopped working. As you described it, all I get is...

After installing the SP-2 none of the screensavers I created in Xara3D work! http://www.the-highway.com/Smileys/bwaa.gif

Only a blank black screen is displayed. There is no Error message saying,...
