    which means I am going to have to start the next project in P&G16 and could well have saved the 74 GBP i paid for XDP18.5 if it is not fixed soon

    one for Rob-xar's list - apologies if it has already been raised

    It is awfully small.

    Seems to be OK on my monitor and also I see there is a thin outline to make it read better. :-)

    I wonder if XaReg could fix that. Might be worth a shot.

    I use Medium with Scrollbar in XPro+v18.5.
    Regardless of setting, the selected icons for Fill, Line & Fill do not change their size but I can see all.

    The worst is No Colour for Fill & Line - crosses on hatched background.

    The selected colours always present in the left-most blob, without any indication of the Colour Bar selection or Colour Editor setting.

    handrawn, if you right-click the Colour Bar > Settings, you can set the CB to small, medium and large. Medium also comes with a Scoll.

    To prevent confusion, this should read: "... right-click the Colour Bar > Options ..."

    thought so thanks - but it makes no difference at all to the size of the diamond marker, stays the same, a lot smaller than gary's and useless to me
