</font></p>
<ul style="line-height: 130%;">
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Open
With:</b> The Open With item in the right-click
menu of Graphic Workshop's browsers will let you
open any picture with your choice of external
applications. Open With has been rewritten to make
it way easier to use. <br>
<br>
Open With now automatically includes those ancillary
applications installed with Graphic Workshop that
know how to open graphics </font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">—</font></font>
e-Paint UltraLight, GIF Construction Set UltraLight,
Icon Editor UltraLight and so on -- as well as any
stand-alone Alchemy Mindworks applications you have
on your system.<br>
<br>
It will also preserve your configuration options
between major version changes, and track updates to
other Alchemy Mindworks software.<br>
<br>
It now includes ZIP and RAR archives, which can be
opened in Graphic Workshop's Archive Manager from
its browsers.<br>
<br>
Note that the new Open With logic will ignore any
previous Open With items you've configured in
earlier releases of Graphic Workshop.<br>
<br>
</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Edit EXIF:</b>
Graphic Workshop's Edit EXIF metadata editor has
been updated to deal with a number of hitherto
unsupported tag types. It also displays a
thumbnail in its prompt window, should you attempt
to edit the EXIF data in a JPG or PNG document
that doesn't turn out to have any.<br>
<br>
</font></font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Transform:</b>
The Transform window has been updated, and several
user interface issues have been addressed. In
addition, it will now display its example graphics
based on the Graphic Workshop document you've
right-clicked on, or the first item in a batch,
rather than the traditional little red sports car.<br>
<br>
</font> </font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Effects:</b></font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> The Effects
window has been also updated, and several user
interface issues have been addressed — pretty much
the same ones as turned up in Transform, above. It
too will now display its example graphics based on
the Graphic Workshop document you've right-clicked
on, or the first item in a batch, rather than the
aforementioned traditional little red sports car.</font></font><font

face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><br>
<br>
</font></font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Move and
Copy: </b>A cosmetic issue in Move and Copy
that caused its document count text to be
truncated under some configurations of Windows has
been addressed.<br>
<br>
</font></font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Function
Window Thumbnails:</b> The thumbnail images that
appear in Graphic Workshop's function windows,
such as Transform and Effects, above, have been
enhanced to more accurately represent pictures
with alpha transparency, large original dimensions
and paletted images.<br>
<br>
</font> </font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>The
UltraLight Screen Clock:</b> The style selector
window in The UltraLight Screen Clock now
temporarily disables the clock display while its
open, allowing the style list to be substantially
quicker and more responsive.<br>
<br>
</font></li>
<li><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><b>Presentation
Wizard UltraLight:</b> An issue that caused
Presentation Wizard UltraLight's documents to
display incorrect flashing cursors under some
configurations of Windows has been stomped.</font><br>

Palette:</b> The e-Paint tool palette window has
been updated. A number of user interface items have
been improved. The most notable of these is the
sample brush window, with hitherto only displayed
the left half of its brushes under some
configurations of Windows. <br>
<br>

If you encounter configuration issues with
e-Paint that defy reason and exhaust profanity,
you can now return it to its "just installed"

An issue with the 64-bit installer for e-Paint

Professional 12 who install the current update will
see a message window offering a no-cost upgrade to the
version 14 software, to be released this fall, if they
upgrade now.</font></p>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">Much the same message will appear
for this week's update to PNG MNG Construction Set
12.</font></p>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">As the in-application notification
message window is by its nature a bit terse, we wanted
to explain this process in greater detail.</font></p>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">All Alchemy Mindworks' software
includes our legendary upgrade policy. If you register
or update an existing registration any time in the
half year or so before we release a major upgrade,</font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"> you'll be welcome
to a free upgrade to the next major release. </font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">That's "free" as
in "no money down, no interest or carrying charges and
no payments until the end of time."</font></p>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">As we're well into the no-cost
upgrade window for several of our applications, you
can upgrade now and enjoy a painless, cashless and
pretty much instantaneous upgrade to version 14 this
fall... hence the aforementioned message window.<br>
</font></p>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">We hasten to add that the foregoing
also applies to users of any version 11 Alchemy
Mindworks software, right now and up until the version
14 applications are released.</font></p>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">If you miss the upgrade window when
you install the latest updates, please visit our <a

<hr width="75%"><br>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">As someone will unquestionably ask,
the major version number of our software is poised to
jump from 12, where it's at now, to 14 this fall
because our experience has shown us that a substantial
number of our users are uncomfortable installing
anything with the number 13 in its version. We're not
here to judge.</font></p>
<p style="line-height: 130%;"><font face="Helvetica,
Arial, sans-serif">Astute users of Graphic Workshop
Professional 12 will have observed that its revision
number skipped revision 13 a few weeks ago, for just
this reason.</font></p>
