Another Update This Morning

[David Strover]

Always click my update link most mornings - it worked today.

I wonder what this will bring?

Update: 26 July 2017: A 12.8.1 patch was released. This is a minor update to the 12.8.0 release. https://support.xara.com/

I couldn't find any specifics of this update.

And as of yet no version update or patch from 12.6.2 for Web Designer - not much of an Update Service here.

XDP user here...

The bug I had reported about RGB PDF output when the design is using CMYK colors appears fixed. So Thanks!

I haven't yet looked beyond this (now squashed) bug.

There was a problem printing to a desktop printer where individual pages or page ranges would not work. That was fixed.

Agree 100% Acorn. Any update should state what's been updated. I don't want to wade through an amended file that might or might not state what's been updated/bug fixed. Fart and give us a clue!

O.K. not much and if bugfixes, then welcome.

But I (and a bunch more of designers here) want more improvements in vector drwawing tools. The suggestion for this are overall in TalkGraphics. Why don't comunicate Xara herein what are the plans for the future?

Xara, You see what we artists can do with Your software, but I'll not stay on a state back 10 Years ago in vectorgraphic. Today are the competitors in front. Only my love to Xara hold me to do the subscription.

If there will be an update every 3 or 6 month with improvements in vector things (not only jq-scripts for thing we can do by hand) then I'll welcome this. And I believe many other in this forum and outside too.

O.K. I went a bit offtopic. Sorry for this.

I could not agree more with you!

10 years ago, Xara was top of the line in vector graphics. Now it's just "meh" and almost every competitor does things better. Even the way cheaper and free ones.
Xara is leaning more and more towards their inferior, non-standard and - to me - less than useless "website creation".

The subscription model is moot too.
NOTHING new and valuable has been added ever after initial release. And what I sure don't need are more ugly and outdated templates for things I never use.

A program that calls itself "Designer Pro" should drop the whole webstuff and concentrate on better design tools. Xara seems to have no interest in designers though.

Hallo Wolfgang,
bin ganz Deiner Meinung. – I totally agree with your opinion.

I suspect they are working hard on the Online Editor so that one day they will drop the desktop program altogether.
