Just Release: Xara Designer Pro X11

[Ron Duke]

Sorry yes went home! Food, beer, bath and bed beacons!

Yea as handrawn says it's pretty self explaining on the service center, and in case anything does go wrong we can fix it at support so don't worry about activation.

I should note that while you can only deactivate 30 days after activating, in the Help menu > Deactivate product you can do at anytime. And if all else fails your PC dies and support is kidnapped, your activation will unlock after 30 days anyway (the installation checks every 30 days as to whether it's still valid. If it can't do this, the license gets unlocked and you can reuse it).

Thanks
Rob

Thanks Rob!

so.. are you saying if I activate an installation, then I need to have that computer connected to the internet or it will deactivate itself after 30 days?

I say the same every year it seems like. No b-spline or easy curve tool, no dimension tool, and no twain support, I bit on V10 that I will keep for web use. I think I will save my upgrade money this year.

Upgraded yesterday after skipping X10. So far it seems like a worthy upgrade to me. Hat's off to the developers who seem to have improved user experience with what feels like faster, and more refined/detailed workflow. Very nice. And I'm digging the brushes. Nice addition.

I am a bit bummed to see no expansion of dash pattern capability (user defined), as well as more arrowhead options.

When I was downloading X11, I saw a link to the manual (download), but now I'm unable to find it. Anyone know where to find this?

Thanks.

Check the email from Xara. The link is near the beginning.

Inserting image from camera results in my front facing camera to turn on.

Since my tablet has a better and more convenient rear facing camera... How would I get Designer to use that camera instead?

Thanks!

bed beacons!

You Xara boys know how to live.

Beacons on the bed indeed!

(forgive me, I couldn't resist. You will never forget the proper spelling of beckon, or we will never forget bed beacons!)

[Ron Duke]

What r bed beacons?

[pauland]

I wouldn't know Ron.

Beacons on the bed?

A beacon is an intentionally conspicuous device designed to attract attention to a specific location.

Just think "flashing light".

Don't take this too seriously Ron.

In other words, all he could think about at that point was getting some much needed sleep.
