Xara Xtreme 5 and windows 7

[Britman]

Sup guys,
WOW it's been a long time since I posted on this site
Anyways, just wondering if Xara xtreme 5 is fully compatable with Windows 7?
My copy of Xtreme 2 doesn't really like Win7 so thought I might as well upgrade for only £45.

Cheers.
Mark.

Hi Mark— your question might have been answered earlier and better if it wasn't in the Official Guide forum?


But, yes it is.

I wrote the entire book under Windows 7 RC1 64x processing, occasionally using Win 7's VM to do screen captures from XP.



My Best,

Gary

Sorry about that, see told it had been a while

Thanks Gary, looks like I'll be upgrading.

Feel free to move post to correct forum.

Hi Britman,

If you are still using version 2 you will be very pleasantly surprised with Xtreme 5.1's new features.

See the "What's new in Xara..." for a comparison between the versions up to and including version 4. Then see Version 5's features

ohhh a WYSIWYG editor, I was just looking at the wed designer tool. So is the web editor in x5 the same as the stand alone?

[Soquili]

Yes it has all the same features. Web Designer has a limited subset of Xtreme 5's drawing features, but both programs share the same web page design abilities.
