Using Widgets When Drawing
Now my programming skills are not the best so I don't know if this can be done in Xara. I use many programmes on the I Pad which use widgets because of the gestures used to control the object or screen. I also remember when teaching assembly language to pupils doing Technological Studies in school writing graphical routines which were called "widgets" to control a PIC micro-controller using an on-screen GUI. Since Xara has used widgets in the web development area is it not possible to do the same in Design Pro? This could improve certain tools and I could name quite a few: brushes, mould tools, line configurations, alignment and the well hidden pen tool. Now to be really honest I have forgotten more than I can remember when it come to assembly language but writing a simple widget to run alongside the main tool might be an easier to advance the drawing capabilities of Design Pro.
Design is thinking made visual.
