Mixed Oxygen environment versions 19.1 and 21.1

[kirkilj]

Are they any issues with using both v19.1 and 21.1 if they both use the same project files and custom network-accessible frameworks. Version 21 has more features and hence preferences (project file differences). If a 21.1 user creates an XPR file, will the 19.1 users be able to use it? Does 19.1 merely ignore any "foreign" 21.1 preferences.

Are there any caveats we should keep in mind? Our developers are using Oxygen Editor 21.1.

Hi John,

If you create an XPR or a .framework configuration file in Oxygen 19.1, it should be usable by Oxygen 21.1.
The other way (projects and frameworks created in 21.1 and used in 19.1) might not work and we cannot guarantee anything related to it. For example even if Oxygen 19.1 is able to open the XPR created by 21.1, when it will save it will probably remove all extra settings which did not exist in 19.1.

Regards,
Radu
