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 example brushes to be
displayed has been addressed.
