A patch is now available at www.xara.com/downloads/xtreme/ which will update 2.0e CD installations of Xara Xtreme to 2.0f CD.
Thanks to everyone that’s helped on this forum by reporting problems and helping to make them reproducible.
Here’s a brief overview of the fixes and other changes made for 2.0f.
- Fixed: Blend with feathered objects caused Internal error 305.k.bs.ow when changing zoom.
- Fixed: Cut of text that includes colored bold word causes access violation. As reported in:-

- Fixed: Rectangle causes access violation when used in combine shapes operation. As reported in:-

- Fixed: Transparency problem caused crash at very high zooms on some examples.
- Fixed: Text insertion stops working after cut
- Fixed: Bitmap export of group transparency at wrong resolution
- Fixed: Problems scaling group transparent objects with caching switched off.
- PDF export file sizes. The 2.0e PDF export needlessly duplicates bitmaps in the PDF if they are used multiple times in the design. This is fixed in 2.0f so that only 1 copy of a bitmap is included in the PDF no matter how many times it’s used. This hopefully resolves at least some of the reports of overly large PDFs reported on this forum.
- Gallery docking suppression. We’ve added a hidden registry preference that can be set by those users who would prefer galleries not to dock as they are dragged close to the edge of the main window. If you set HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Xara\XaraXtreme\Options \Galleries\HarderToDock to 1, then galleries will not dock while dragging unless the Ctrl key is held down (which is the reverse of the default behaviour whereby holding Ctrl suppresses docking). As requested in:-

Please note that the patch will not update trial versions of Xara Xtreme, even if they’ve been unlocked. If you want to update a trial installation to 2.0f, please download a new trial installer from www.xara.com/downloads/xtreme/.
Thanks
