I might have missed it, but has Corel mentioned what the x7 features will be, or things they are working on? Or when the next feature set will be released?
I am wondering about using the Premium membership, I rarely upgrade software from one version to the next version, and I usually skip a version. So I have no idea of knowing if x7 for be compelling enough for me to upgrade to.
Corel has not announced any new features for/in the CGS X7. They never announce, ahead of its release, any new features in the upcoming version(s).
But looking over the past versions, seeing what has been upgraded or new from the previous version, you can bet that you will find some nice, new goodies that you may not have had, before. An example of this, looking at the X6 release, is Color Harmonies, Open Type font options, and so on....
X7 can probably be expected in a couple of years time. It is almost certainly not going to happen soon and I'm sure even Corel has little idea what features it will contain.
Did you mean X6.1 or X6.2 perhaps?
X6.1 has been available for several days and X6.2 has been suggested as likely to be about the end of the year.
Any of the upgrades. 6.2 and on, are supposed to be available only for premium members, and they will become x7 when they are all rolled together for a new official release. That is my understanding. Fonts and colors are not enough to compel me to buy a new version because I don't use Corel for publications.
