Seriously? Xara Online can't even handle layers. Don't even get me started!Matt Bolton, your CEO, stated in his Open Letter, "Xara Online will work seamlessly with Xara Desktop files which allows Desktop customers to reap the benefits of these complementary features."

Acorn, you use words I often have no understanding of and often have to Google. Syllogism is an example, but loved this explanation:

here's a quote from the xara designer pro features page:
maybe someone from xara can explain why, if there is full support... including layer support... clip layers and effect layers are not supported... in what way do these not come under the heading of full ?Xara Designer Pro has full support for importing and exporting Adobe Photoshop® PSD files including layer support.
not supporting effect layers I can understand from a technical point of view, but not clip - even a program developed by just one person, paintool sai, can manage clip layer support, how come xara cannot?
either way, the use of full in your marketing is at best mis-leading and at worst disingenuous untruth

Nothing lasts forever...
Let's be honest, here, Clip layers and Effects layers only exist because Photoshop is such a rubbish tool and that was the only way they could make that functionality work. OTOH, Xara allows you to apply all your effects non-destructively in the first place, no need to keep them on a separate layer, and it allows clip objects/groups. So the functionality is not only there but it is implemented in a far better way. You just need to adapt your workflow to take full advantage of it, rather than expect Xara to change to fit in with you.

you know Bones, some of us get fed up with the non-destructive way of doing things, for bitmaps at least, after the 100th time of having to make a bitmap copy to enable a feature to be applied to the current object's state [and not the underlying source object - bitmap tracer for example]
explain to me how I can paint inside a clipview object in xara without having to edit inside which then loses sight of the rest of the workspace and therefore the clipviewed object's context
Photoshop clip layers are excellent for this purpose...
