    Default xaralx

    Just wondering what is happening with xaralx?

    It has the base of an outstanding program, but needs a couple features (text wrap for one) and bug fixes to make it top-notch.

    Thanks

    So, does anyone know if text wrap will be added to XaraLX in the near future?

    It does do this, and has done so for a little while.

    When you use the text editor, rather than just clicking and adding text instead click and drag. You'll see a fine red horizontal line appear. This line represents the "width" of your text. If you type now, you'll find that once the text has reached the end of this line, it wraps.

    The great thing is that you can drag the small red square at the end of the line to edit the width even after you typed something. However, to my knowledge you cannot apply this method to text you may have already produced using the classic "click then type" approach.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi Allstar,

    I do not know if there is much development happening on XaraLX at the current time. The last update available on the XaraXtreme.org site was made on 7 November 2007.

    The current Windows version of Xara Xtreme does not support wrapping text around an object. The Windows version is the flagship and has been updated a few times since the Linux version was first made available.
