Been advised by Xara that the notification window is to large for laptops, mine is 15inch, thus could not see the bottom of window to be able to 'Quit' in future developers will be made aware of small laptops and take the size of the notification into account..
Escape also quits the notification screen.
Still stuck with notification screen and having to press Escape every time want to use SW.
Hope it will disappear at next update.
Thanks for suggestion.
