Dear Xara...

Why is the Paragraph Border & Background Settings Dialog modal?
Surely any XDA designer can see that its use is hampered by focussing on adjoining selected paragraphs.

Bug - The XDA locks if you try and create a Named colour through the Background Colour Edit button.

Bug - Using the Selector Tool to pick the entire Text Area and Edit either Colour - if you pick Custom, you end up changing the Text Fill colour.

Bug - Editing either Colour does not interact with the chosen display; you have to repick the Colour Editor dropdown to force it.

Bug - I attach the following in testing the above and after several crashes, it got stuck with different border colours where L & R are pale unchanging green.

An interesting use of embedded SVGs; I can see this being developed much further. The SVG blocks need to be Named.
