    Graphic Workshop Professional 12 Revision 11


<http://www.mindworkshop.com/gwspro.html>


Graphic Workshop Professional 12 has been updated.

In this release:

  * *PNG:* The PNG reader in Graphic Workshop and its ancillary
    applications has been updated to correctly handle interlaced PNG
    graphics with slightly funky code structures... of which there
    appear to be a substantial number. This is not a security issue, but
    it will prevent the occasional PNG from looking like a sand painting.

    The PNG reader has also experienced a noticeable speed improvement.

  * *Rename:* The Graphic Workshop Rename window now includes a
    thumbnail of the graphic you've right-clicked on or the first
    graphic in a selected batch to visually confirm what you're about to
    change the name of.

  * *Print:* The Graphic Workshop Print window now includes a thumbnail
    of the graphic you've right-clicked on or the first graphic in a
    selected batch to visually confirm what you're about to render as
    hard copy.

  * *MP3*: A bug that caused the status display to misbehave when MP3
    documents were written by Graphic Workshop has been disabused of its
    bad attitude.

  * *Audio:* A bug in the audio visualization logic, that created
    waveform plots of sound documents, has been addressed.

  * *Icon Editor: *The Graphic Workshop Icon Editor UltraLight
    application has has a number of issues addressed. Its Eyedropper
    tool now correctly works with the first row of pixels in a graphic.
    Ctrl-A now reliably selects an entire document. An issue that caused
    the alpha masks of transformed image fragments to display
    incorrectly in some cases is history. A bug that crashed the Resize
    window has been stomped. A Windows problem that caused a number of
    unpredictable behaviors when objects were drawn or dragged to the
    outermost column or row of pixels in a graphic under some
    configurations of Windows has been dealt with.

  * *Filters:* The Filters window in Graphic Workshop and e-Paint
    UltraLight has been updated to address a number of cosmetic problems.

  * *Gradient:* The Gradient section window that turns up in various
    places in Graphic Workshop and its ancillary applications has been
    updated to address a problem that prevented the center coordinates
    of a gradient from being set to negative values under some
    configurations of Windows.

  * *e-Paint UltraLight: *A bug in the tool palette window of e-Paint
    UltraLight that caused only the right half of examples brushes to be
    displayed has been addressed.
