    Default Color bar size

    Hi Folks,

    I have just installed the XaraDesigner Pro X10 and what hit me
    was that the color bar at the bottom of workspace is so so so tiny thin.
    I was lookin for some button to make it a normal size as in X9 but I could not find
    any button to that.

    Does someone know how in X10 make the Color Bar bigger/thicker?
    All ideas are welcome.

    Pawel

    Hi Pawel—

    Hmmm, I've not used 10 extensively, but here's a screen cap on my machine running 1280 by 960:

    I've looked in several places, such as Options and Galleries, and cannot find where this anomaly you're having can be reset or enlarged.

    It is relevant, thought, that I can't reproduce your problem with the swatches. I did a straight install, and aside from features I asked for that aren't there (!), everything else appears to be much like Designer 9, too much, in fact.

    My Best,

    Gary

    If it's anything like mine Gary it grows larger and larger with the passing of the years.

    Well, Egg, perhaps with every passing year, you have more and more to store, and something has to give, you know?

    For me, it's tying my shoelaces, trying to ride a bike without acquiring a concussion, and which end of a screwdriver produces the best results.


    The day one believes they don't need to learn anymore, is the day their reason for living dies.

    I don't know who said that, or if I paraphrased incorrectly, but the gist of it is: The more you realize how much more you have yet to learn, the smarter you become.

    Feeling like a bright guy, if this is true.

    Gary
