Your button title "button start1" does not do anything not even a mouse over and the images in the gallery are pixelated in slideshow
I know its only a test just thought I would mention it.

Actually my "button start 1" does work. This is a feature of the navigation bar tool. When you are on the page that the button represents, the mouseOver state stays selected. I have enhanced my test site to have a second page so that you can see the effect.

No worries on my end, I'm just trying to be complete.

I quite like the grey makes it feel modern and sleek dont know what you mean by the big tool bar icons can you post a screen cappture heres mine below.

Chris

In Xtreme and WD5 you can accept large buttons for all, or just the main tool bar etc., or opt to have small buttons where required. At present we seem limited to large without the option of having reduced size shortcut control bars where required.
Having a choice is just something I'm used to and hope that it isn't removed in Xpro6 at even if it is missing in WD6, which will become redundant for me in a few months anyway I assume.

I think this is a trade-off for the current UI which calls on the external xaradark.cjstyles component which doesn't support this. Maybe later?
I'd wager that if you were to use the old skin hack posted in another thread, these options would become available

The short cut buttons in WD6 seem fixed as LARGE as the options in Control Bars> use large button> for are greyed out and ticked. Can anyone let me know if this is a fault in my installation or therefore deliberate? If deliberate then why are the options there but disabled I wonder?
I dislike large buttons as they always appear to be aimed at infants.

Hi

Only large buttons are available within Web Designer 6 so there is nothing wrong with your installation


Thanks

I agree they do look large on standard monitors.
Not so bad on 24" I have to admit. Maybe the future is for a few more skin options, early days

[steve.ledger]

Does this mean that Xtreme6 will be release in a month or so's time and if so will it contain all of WD6 as last time and more important will it be dark grey with out the options and tool bars we all are familiar with; and if so why?

I doubt Xara will be removing the website creation abilities introduced with Xtreme 5. Some site designers require the additional tools available in Xtreme or Xtreme Pro.
Also, I would expect the new colour UI to be exactly the same for XX6.
I'm not sure what options and tool bars you considering are missing Derek??

As normal, you can customise these via Window>>Control Bars 'button palette'
You can even remove the flyouts entirely if they aren't your cuppa tea (they aren'nt mine)

I'm not liking the grey either, I'd much more prefer the clean, XWD 5 type colouring.

I agree the new grey colour is gastly, I do hope there will be a choice in
Xara extreme pro 6, otherwise I wont buy it
I find it very difficult to read compared to the colours we are used to
At least they could offer the colour choice as in office 2007/2010
