I've spent a lot of time getting my workspace where I like it in X6. When I export it the only available format is to a .xslt file. However, when I try to imort it into X7, I get this message "Valid workspace file not found at the path specified".
The X7 import shows the ability to select .cdws, .xslt, .cwf and .cfg formats, but it will not import the .xslt from X6.
Help would be very appreciated.

Workspaces were completely rebuild for X7 and therefore you cannot move previous versions of workspaces forward to X7.
Get a nice large cup of coffee or soda, lock yourself in a room and you can have your shiny new X7 workspace knocked out in an hour, maybe two if you go nuts.

Now I'm curious. Why have the import options at all if X7 can't import 'em? Why SAY you can but then find out you can't?

I have built a customized workspace (and it is in the menu of workspaces as a separate entry), and I have it saved off. If I mess up my workspace, or if I have to do an F8 reset or a repair, I can restore my customized workspace with the import. I do not have to totally rebuild it.
Also, going forward from this point on, (like X8 and X9, etc.) I should be able to better import the (X7) workspace, as Corel, in reworking the User Interface, has included certain hooks towards making future workspace importation more feasable.
To be totally honest, it's not that we don't want to support these two items. Quite a bit before we released both of these items were estimated but we knew they they weren't going to get to them. I''m not saying they are gone forever, but they don't work in the GM.

Thanks for an honest answer, Tony. If you weren't going to support it, why leave that option? It coudn't have taken much time to remove the file formats that would not be supported.
I agree...I guess I was focusing on the future a little to much.
I don't mind redoing my workspace, it'll actually be nice to familiarize myself to everything. but I have every single tool as well as a host of macros mapped to different keys, this is torture :(
