Push Comes to Web Designer MX Premium Position on Page is a new set of options that among other things can automatically expand the page to accommodate additional data, such as a deeper or wider text column. In previous versions, you had to manually change the page width and/or depth by dragging the right edge or bottom of the page with the Selector Tool. With Push, this now happens automatically. Push Applied to a Text Panel: Text Panels (found in the Design Gallery > Text Panels folder, automatically resize as you add or remove text. Adding Push to these panels now will automatically extend the bottom or right side of your page as you add more text or widen the text width. Position on Page Options: There are four additional options in the Position on Page fly out menu: Fixed: With an object or text object selected, Fixed (previously the only option) attaches the selection to its current position on the page. If the page is widened or lengthened, the selection stays exactly where it is. Footer: This option ensures the selected object or text object that is located close to, or at the bottom of the page, maintains the same position and distance from the bottom of the page if the page length is modified. Footer only applies to the current page, however. If you want the selection to appear at the same place on all pages, use the Repeat on All Pages command. Automatic: This option retains the relative position of the selection to the top, bottom, left or right side of the page, depending upon which is most appropriate. For example, an object in the right margin of the page will maintain the same spacing from the right edge of the page even if the page is widened. If the selection is closer to a corner, the selection will maintain the same distance from that corner. Stretch with Page: This option is useful if you are using a background rectangle on your site and want it to automatically expand as the page is stretched. Widgets The first thing you need to know about the Widgets is they’re no longer in the Widgets folder. Xara has moved them into the new Page Elements folder in the Designs Gallery. The Designs Gallery has been redesigned to be more logical and easier to use. In addition, you’ll find a new category of Widgets, Charts. As you can see from the illustration, these new Chart Widgets are resizable! And that’s not all. Since their introductions, Widgets, with the exception of a few Flash based widgets, have been fixed size. Web Designer  MX Premium now offers many new non-Flash widgets that are expandable. For example, the Photo Slide Show Widgets found in the Page Elements > Photos folder. The Fade Slide Show Widget (shown here) has been resized and displays  thumbnail images across the top. It also runs as an automatic slide show. On the page (not in Edit View), a pop-up similar to the Link pop up identifies the object is a widget. Click Edit to edit the widget in the Edit Window. You can now preview widgets while in Edit mode. Previously you had to Save before you could preview any edited Widget. A new resizable QR Code Widget identifies the page upon which it is placed. Or you can opt to have the code display text when scanned with a mobile device capable of reading a QR Code. If you’re a long time user you may have gotten accustomed to F5 as the shortcut for the Fill Tool. F5 is now the shortcut for Preview Page (Shift + F5 previews the entire website). (G is now the shortcut for the Fill Tool). © Gary Priester Consequat pariatur excepteur officia.  This panel stretches horizontally and vertically. Amet officia irure sed.
