    Re: Most wanted addition to Designer Pro

    Re: Free 14 day trial

    Yeah, I've just had that as well. A while back, I upgraded my v18 to v19 which then had a service expiry date of Nov 2022.

    Re: How do I stop the reminder for me to update?

    Thanks. I never thought of that.

    I created an Outbound rule based on PhotoGraphicDesigner.exe and that appears to work. No more message repeatedly touting the update service.

    And if anything was more calculated to get me searching for hacked copies or keygens, I can't think of it.

    Re: How do I stop the reminder for me to update?

    No. Sadly, that doesn't work. I went all the way through to just before pressing the [Confirm payment] button. Twice. Once with Xara open and once with it closed.

    Still the same message.

  10. Re: P & GD 15 - Insert Smart Photo Grid 8. What does the Move Photo button do?

    D'oh!

    I missed the fact that the Rotate handle actually says "Rotate AND Scale".

    So it IS possible to enlarge a single photo. :)

    But the blue 'Move Photo' blob in QuickShape mode still does...

    Re: Failed update for Xara P&GD v11

    I gather it's a temporary thing they put up for me, so they don't want it on the forum as a permanent link. If you submit a ticket, they'll probably do a special one for you too. :)

    Alas, the thread seems to have been closed without positive resolution because of 'low quality answers'! :)
