@Kate Moir. Thank you for this Cloud update.

Could you please advise why the 10 updates a year for Xara Pro + have dried up since the last one on 02 August?

We've done 10 in the last year, somewhat unevenly spread admittedly, but there is another update in testing at the moment.

Kate, thank you. I was asking as there are still a number of smaller but irritating Bugs that mar an otherwise useful build: loss of control handles for envelops, overall naff UI control handles, frustrating forces to WebP is Page has any background on ever re-open, silly renaming of identical images with Image Filename use.

I would love to close all of these, https://www.talkgraphics.com/tags.php?tag=bug%23acorn, and more.

Nice, the new native storage looks like a nice feature.

[webmaster]

Thanks @xtom, yes we believe it'll be a significant improvement in workflow, especially for teams.

@Acorn, for Pro+ releases we always try and squeeze in as many small fixes and improvements as we can. I don't know exactly what's planned for 21.6 but I know the team are on it!

Kate, is there a size limit to Xara Storage?

@ Acorn, add 'Objects in Pop-up Layers can't have reveal animations applied'. Avoiding users from applying the animation in the mouse-off layer then moving it to the pop-up layer where the animation works perfectly well.

Egg, answering the @Kate part, you get 1GB, 2GB if use the Black Friday offer, if subscribing.

Answering my part, yes, that too is a niggle worth chasing but do direct to @Kate as I have no power to make any changes, only she can.
