"In the mid-90s Corel entered into a distribution agreement with Xara. The deal was they would get Xara into US markets.
After one year, Corel stopped supporting Xara. After they had copied Xara's on-screen interactive interface, transparency tool, Infobar etc.
All of these features were new to the next release which was DRAW 7.
Fortunately, Xara was able to get out of the contract and has done very well since".
Hmmm... Draw 7 was the first version I bought after 3 (and 1)... But interesting. I also have a number of Xara products, including the very useful Xara 3D. And yes, I am glad Xara has made a name for itself, though I can't say I am particularly surprised by the alleged Corel tactics, given what has happened to at least some of the competing products of companies they have taken over...
Your post was moved to Forum chat as it is not product specific and in fact the only mention of a product is one that we do not discuss in these forums - please check the Chat forum your post is here.
Thanks again Brian
Whilst I have your attention.. how do I delete private messages?
My box is almost full and I can't find anywhere that says "Delete"!
open up your inbox - click to tick the little box against the right hand end of each post you want to delete.
go to the very bottom of your inbox you will see a drop down which by default shows "Mark/Unmark as important" change that to "Delete Marked" - click on "Go" then OK the verification - posts gone.
Same procedure also applies to "Sent messages" - that keeps a record of all messages you send - so will also be filling up.
