    Default JUST RELEASED: A New Version of Xara Designer Pro X

    We’ve released updates to Xara Designer Pro X and Web Designer, available now.

    As promised we have been working away on Open Type and Table support and there are significant enhancements to both, which I’m sure will be welcome here on TG. Another highlight is a powerful new graphic design tool, ‘color palette from photo’, which analyses a photo, identifies the predominant colors and creates a color palette of Theme Colors based on those colors which you can then use in your document.

    You can find full details on these and other new features in the Release Notes @ http://releasenotes.xara.hosting/designer-pro-x16/ and http://releasenotes.xara.hosting/web-designer-16/

    If you have an active Update Service then you can access this update now for free. NOTE you need to re-download the software, there is no auto-update. You can uninstall your current version or run it alongside if you prefer, and it uses the same serial number.

    http://www.xara.com/web-designer/download/

    If your Update Service has expired then you can renew your Update Service / upgrade in order to get this and other updates since your version. Go to the Designer Pro or Web Designer page on magix.com and click Upgrade.

    Also since we have moved on to v16 you have the opportunity to download the trial and try it again, even if you have run the trial of a previous version.

    One final point, there is no 32 bit version, we will no longer be producing them.

    I hope you enjoy the new features,

    Kate Moir, Xara

    Hi Kate,

    has posted :

    It touts Xara Designer Pro and the video is for Xara Web Designer: "Xara Web Designer – Easily create your own website (2019) - YouTube"

    Confusion in Magix and Xara communication continues, why?

    Rob, the video is pure fantasy (again) showing an interface that doesn't exist. Very poor marketing!

    The (same) fanciful UI was panned almost two years back as well.

    Thanks Acorn. I thought it looked familiar.

    On reflection - is the video showing what can be done with Xara - that is, rather than showing the program's actual UI, it is showing a menu selection mechanism that can be created by it... ?

    Interesting to see the DPX update released first. In past years it’s usually been PGD first out the door.

    Can anyone confirm there will be a v16 update for Xara Photo & Graphic Designer?

    That's just Magix marketing, I wish I was on what they are half the time.

    PGD 16 coming very soon.
