Xara Xtreme to use wxWidgets?

Post by leio »

Yesterday Xara announced going Open Source and Linux/Mac with Xara Xtreme - "the fastest most versatile graphics software available" - http://www.xaraxtreme.org/news/11-10-05.html

Guess what it uses for the GUI for the linux preview? :wink:

Compilers: gcc-3.3.6, gcc-3.4.5, gcc-4.0.2, gcc-4.1.0 and MSVC6
OS's: Gentoo Linux, WinXP; WX: CVS HEAD

WOW - neat! Well, that's one way to get attribution for something :).

Yay! I can finally reach the forums now :) .

The watermark is pretty cool, but it may also be annoying (especially for commercial products). Is there any way to turn this off?

And kudos to Xara for going OS. Maybe now someone can work on a decent animation system!
