<h2>Graphic Workshop Professional 9 Revision 6<font

notification)</font></font></font></h2>

<p>Graphic Workshop Professional 9 has been updated.
This release:<br>
</p>
<ul>
<li> There's always one more bug... but this one seems
to be in Windows. Under some builds of Windows,
previous releases of Graphic Workshop would open
their Search windows if you tried to edit a folder
name and in so doing hit the backspace key. The
current update has been disabused of this behavior.<br>
</li>
</ul>
From the previous release:<br>
<ul>
<li>Addresses a number of issues with the Save and
Open <b>Browser Tabs</b> functionality. This update
also improves the speed with which large groups of
browser tabs can be opened.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Updates the <b>PNG readers and writers</b> in
Graphic Workshop and its ancillary applications to
address some security issues. We strongly urge all
users of Graphic Workshop to update to this version
to close these potential security holes.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Improves the <b>Crop</b> optimized view mode
image quality.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Improves the <b>thumbnail</b> memory management,
which will allow for faster thumbnail displays,
especially on systems with limited resources or lots
of other software running.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Fixes a bug in the file save logic of <b>Icon
Editor UltraLight</b> that could cause it to
spuriously prompt for a file name.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Fixes a potential crash in the <b>GWS Camera</b>
screen capture.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Addresses a number of user interface issues in <b>
Presentation Wizard UltraLight</b>... and updates
its example document.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Improves the color matching logic in <b>GIF
Construction Set UltraLight's</b> Animation
Wizard.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues
that software developers never really stop meddling
with.<br>
<br>
</li>
</ul>

<p>We'd like to thank everyone who's e-mailed over the
past few years to ask when there would be a new novel
by Steven William Rimmer.</p>
<p>It's here, and it's available in e-book and paperback
editions through Amazon.<br>
</p>
<p>Please click on the big blue button, below, to find
out more about it.<br>
</p>
<p>We've been instructed to mention that there are no
actual dragons therein, in that dragons, while
mythical and cool, don't really exist.</p>
