Well before I answer I need to tell you, I’ve been using Xara since it’s early days, when I got this Trial copy of COREL Xara and other product which properly not available now called Xara Webster, I got both of them on a free PCMagazine CD early on 1999-2000, in that time vector graphics wasn’t that popCular like nowadays, I was using Jasc PaintShopPro4 I guess instead of PhotoShop because PhotoShop was even heavier on loading on my machine in that time, and maybe that was the first reason I used Xara, because it is too fast, but in that time I just used Xara to draw shapes, combine them, export smooth bitmaps and illustration.
I liked Xara much and I’ve tried all the versions, I like it Xara1 because it was 17Mbyte application, setup is just nothing, and it does the work and more, I’ve enjoyed designing and planning my designs even in Xara faster than any other program, I have to say, and until now am still with Xara and even still working with that version 1.0, sometimes I switch to new versions to use any new features, but most of the time I enjoy illustrating objects and graphics on Xara1, so yes, most of the vector graphics on my portfolio work are all made by Xara, and u can check the tools area on any artwork to know which program used on that.
Xara isn’t as powerful as Illustrator where it is really faster, and if you need to now the meaning of word faster you need to run Xara and Adobe illustrator in the same time to check that yourself, Xara almost does most of the things that Adobe Illustrator does, but some features still not in Xara yet, and of course there are some features in Xara are not in Illustrator too .
What is the most thing I liked in Xara ?
