I have a simple proposal to keep Xasra Designer focused and lean:
Let Web Designer be its own thing. Keep the current features in Designer Pro, but stop cramming more web stuff into it in the future.
Also, this is a line of products, right? And they're al a subset of Xara Designer? This, too, is a cause of "bloat", as Larry remarked.
The Xara Group has yet to offer a paint program for retouching photos. Instead, we're getting masks, and third party plug-ins that don't work for me as an artist because they all execute in proxy boxes instead of directly in the document.
Buy a paint program and then code the heck out of it so now you have a suite of products,like Microsoft, like Adobe, and Xarsa Designer, the crown jewel of the creators, doesn't get a hernia doing 100% of the coding heavy lifting.
