Graphic Workshop Professional 8 Revision 4 (Second Notification) _______________________________________________________________________ Graphic Workshop Professional 8 has been updated. This release: - Adds browser tab histories. This one is unspeakably cool. As you navigate between folders with Graphic Workshop's browsers, your most recent destinations will be collected in the right-click menu for each browser tab. You can subsequently edit the list of destinations, and lock the list to prevent further changes if you like. The result of all this thaumaturgy and cunning is that you can quickly configure each browser tab to access multiple folders... rather than keeping lots and lots of browser windows open. There's a complete discussion of how the browser history features work in the Reference document of Graphic Workshop's Manual, in the section entitled Browser Windows. We hasten to add that browser histories can be disabled if you'd rather Graphic Workshop didn't keep a record of your travels. - Adds loadable browser tab sets. This one's unspeakably cool with its own frozen penguin. Graphic Workshop can save your current set of browsers - along with all their configuration settings - and subsequently open them later. You can program Graphic Workshop with as many unique sets of open browsers as you like, changing between them with a few clicks. Unusually well organized users of the software can create multiple desktop shortcuts, each opening Graphic Workshop with a specified set of browser windows. There's also a complete discussion of how the loadable browser tabs work in the Reference document of Graphic Workshop's Manual, in the section entitled Browser Windows. - Vastly speeds up the Identify Mystery File function... as long as the mystery file in question turns out to be a JPEG, PNG or GIF graphic... by skipping ahead and checking for common file types first. - Adds an option to the File Time item of the browser right-click menu to quickly set the time and date of the file in question to the current system time without any interaction. Hold down the Ctrl key when you select File Time to make this happen. - Fixes a bug in the drag and drop management that could cause thumbnails for dragged files to be rebuilt rather than copied under some circumstances. - Updates the EXIF editor. - Adds assistance buttons to the initial registration key windows. Click on the question marks if you discover yourself to be lost. - Updates the View mode Filters library. - Addresses some color selection issues in Presentation Wizard UltraLight and Montage Builder UltraLight. - Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software developers never really stop meddling with. - Updates the documentation.
