It just gets better and better Paul. If I drink the stuff will it make me an xtreme expert?

Decrease the display quality (the slider) to simple outline or so and then zoom in. Once zoomed in, I believe you can return the display quality to antialiased again. This worked with me, iirc (assuming I got the same error/crash as you). Or zoom into a different part of the page and afterwards scroll to where you want to be in the drawing

That artwork is incredible and the fact that you did it in 1 1/2 hours is amazing!!!!

Aram,
The most amazing part of the drawing is the building on the label. That is EXCELLENT vector drawing! Looks like a photo.

Yeah, I found out that moving slightly to left or right and do the zoom works most of the times, it specially crashed when I was building the cap, and the whole draw doesnt have live effects, plugins or something, just pure vectors work. I also found that sometimes the combine shape options do not work as they should, for instance, when i try to substract or intersect, it always do the last no matter if i move the objects to the top or to the bottom

sometimes so problematic I would need to copy the objects, go to a new document and try to do the thing there.

Maybe the problem would go away if you select & copy your whole drawing to a new doc and save it as a new file.

yeah i think xtreme is way more buggy than x1 the last release but i like it any way because it's faster than anything else ... i always seem to loose my eyedropper a lot with 2.0f but the speed it closes and opens again it's not too much trouble to reboot the whole thing
