Any word on when the final version of XPE will be released ? hours, days, weeks, months?

Hi RJSwift,

If you have xara X1 it is included. At least as much as is ready. This program is still in work. The plans for it are rather grand for a little application.

John,
I agree, "soon" is just around the corner...won't be long now...please be patient while we try to get it done...

Maybe I shouldn't have asked the question because no matter what they say, someone will say, "well where is it" ?

Would soon be okay enough for you? http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

We never commit to dates, because we don't want to let people down if we decide we want to launch it on a different day.

But I believe it is soon.

Hello Kingram,

Welcome to Talkgraphics. They must be pretty busy because the whole crew have been pretty scarse in the forums lately. Or they all went on a nice long holiday... http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Hey!

APS still dominates hands down! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Oh yeah, they DO have those "..01" updates. I don't use Corel much to know that one.

Actually, I'm wondering about this XPE if it comes close to APS and would like to know if it exports .psd files.

Yea, 6 weeks later............

I guess "sooner" is much longer than I had thought...........

I'll ask the question also.......where is it?

Hello Doane,

You have the wrong definition of soon. Soon for a woman dialated to 20 centimenters is within seconds. Soon to a software company is "Please to not buy a competitors product before we release this dang thing. The Programmers are rowing as fast as they can, but we only have 76% power captain!" http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Does that make it any clearer?

And they wouldn't get upset if it was released before it was ready? http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/confused.gif

Ummm guys... If you want junk software with a buggy version out every 9 months, buy MS, Adobe or Corel. If you want something that lasts a long time and works. Have a little patience.

there is only one saying I have ever heard that explains what it is like to write a program under a time limit...

"It is hard to remember your orignal objective was to drain the swamp when you are up to your ass in alligators!"

Everytime you turn around another thing is trying to bite your bottom. Fix this which breaks that then go back and fix both. Opps that guy went on holiday.

WIR...
