Looking for latest XAR format documentation

[sculptex]

Open debug window, drag and drop xar file you want to analyze to the main xtreme window (not to debug window) and it's tree should appear. Debug window is blank by default, it doesn't show currently open document (strange I know)

thanks, I couldn't remember having to do that.


I should imagine that the documentation is turning into a bit of a behemoth and I can understand that it may never get updated which is why I asked if there was maybe just a plain text file with at least the xar tags in for completeness.

that said I don't really have any spare time to spend on my various ideas for the time being, what with real work and everything, so probably just as well!

also looks to me that whilst based on xxp4, xwd seems to be taking a different path with file structure. I guess only version 5 will tell.

Thanks for this CTRL-SHIFT-8 keystroke, which I never knew of (I'm a graphics software developer myself).

From the debug output, seems like Xara has some plans regarding document structure (TAG_CHAPTER) ;-)

[covoxer]

It was always there.

covoxer: I meant that apart from spreads, pages and layers, there seems to be another hierarchical layer planned for the future, which TAG_CHAPTER is reserved for?

[covoxer]

Yes.
