    And, in the case of XPD, the price for this infamous update service has been jacked up by more than 33%, notwithstanding assurances a year earlier that it would remain comparable to the earlier upgrade prices!

    Great, now that's out the way maybe they can actually do something important like finish v15.1 😉
    Incidentally (and not that it makes any difference) but have Xara now become a German company?

    here's a link to Companies House:
    https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/c...97032/officers

    on the people tab you will see that only Kate [Gaddeston Place] and Jurgen [Berlin] remain dirctors of the Xara Group Limited; and Charles resigned 31 December 2015

    Guess we can all decide for ourselves what that might mean...

    I wouldn't mind betting that, whoever does the actual programming for the desktop programs, control is effectively with Magix; hence Rob having to beg for examples of why version 15 was a pig's ear when it was obvious to all that actually use images and text for anything other than glorified photo-album manipulation, web based or otherwise...
