    Graphic Workshop Professional 14 Revision 7


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


*Graphic Workshop Professional 14* has been updated.

*In this release:

*

  * *Filter Menu:* The font size for the menu that selects filters in
    the Graphic Workshop View mode Filters window is now adjustable.
    Click on the three bars in the lower right corner of the window, and
    select Filter Menu Font Size. Users with better eyesight can select
    a smaller font to see more menu items without the need to scroll
    around the menu. (Larger font sizes are available for the rest of us.)

    See the discussion of the Filter menu in the View and Filters
    section of the Graphic Workshop Manual's Reference document .

  * *Filter Preview:* The Filters window includes "before" and "after"
    images for the graphics it processes. Of necessity, they're a bit
    small. You can now see full-screen previews of what they contain by
    middle-clicking on them — clicking with your mouse wheel in most
    cases. Users with laptop touch panels or really economical mice can
    hold down Shift and left-click.

    Click anywhere to close one of the resulting preview windows.

    If you open a preview window for the post-processing preview, the
    Filter window will apply any recent changes to its controls, the
    equivalent of clicking on the Preview button.

  * *ICO Writer:* The file writer for Graphic Workshop's ICO logic —
    Windows icons — has been updated to create contemporary Windows
    icons files, no matter what your source graphics are. It also
    manages image sizing and area selection more intuitively.

    See the discussion of ICO file sin the Formats section of Graphic
    Workshop's manual.

  * *Setup:* Graphic Workshop's Setup window has been restructured so
    all the fields that pertain to JPG, PNG and WebP have their own
    tab... these being the most common graphic formats for most Graphic
    Workshop users.

    Setup is somewhat easier to navigate now.

  * *Overrides: *The Override windows for those formats that have
    adjustable parameters — the aforementioned ICO, JPG, PNG and WebP
    among them — now have Help buttons that link to the specific
    discussions of the formats in question, rather than to the section
    of the manual that discusses overrides.

  * *GIF Construction Set UltraLight:* The GIF Construction Set
    Animation Wizard has been updated to address a number of issues. It
    now creates somewhat smaller animations with some source content.
