I am a complete newbie in regards to using web design software, so I want the process to be a simple as possible.
Would menu maker be a good addition to Web Designer, or does Web Designer already do what menu maker does? Thanks for any information.

Welcome, I am kind of new to this also. Looks like Menu Maker would make your life lots simpler. I have tried the trial and it is easy to create the menu in menu maker but it is an other story to deal with the layers in XWD. Once menu maker exports the html files all you need to do is place the js line of text in the place holder in XWD and all works well. I am thinking about getting it for myself also.

Once you get your head around making menus manually in WD, it's not too bad. I made a video to help people get started learning how to do it. There are lots of other videos on my YT channel which may help with various Xara related tasks. I also accept suggestions for videos people may want.

Hi FromBC,
The writeup for MenuMaker was created years before Web Designer existed.
MenuMaker was released in 2004. Web Designer was released about 4 weeks ago.
Putting a navbar or menu created with MenuMaker (or Webstyle 4) can easily be used in your Web Designer pages. Use the step by step instructions in the Xara Support article in the following link.

Thank you Bill. I really appreciate the help.
Does menu maker make it that much easier to do menus. Is it worth spending the extra $$ for ease of use. Thanks.
