Graphic Workshop Professional 10
Revision 10
|
Graphic Workshop Professional 11
has been updated. In this release:
- JPEG Security: A potential
security issue in Graphic Workshop's JPEG library
interface has been identified and addressed.
- Oil
Painting Filter: A memory leak in the Oil
Painting filter that tended to crash Graphic
Workshop when large digital camera images were
transformed into motel art therein has been fixed.
- FIT
Format: A bug in the FIT file reader that
failed to free some system resources when FIT files
were read has been stomped.
- Find in
Browser: The Find in Browser window can now be
closed by clicking outside it.
- Thumbnail
Pre-cache: The Graphic Workshop thumbnail
pre-cache logic attempts to guess which thumbnails
you're going to screen over next, when Graphic
Workshop first boots up, and load them before
they're needed to allow for smoother scrolling. The
logic that drives the pre-cache has been enhanced to
make it more intuitive... or more likely to guess
correctly.
In addition, you can now adjust the delay time
between pre-cached thumbnail fetches to fine-tune
the pre-cache functionality to your computer. See
the discussion of Thumbnail Pre-caching in the
Reference document of Graphic Workshop's manual.
- Filter
Thumbnails: A resource issue that could crash
Graphic Workshop's Filter window if its
previous-iteration thumbnails were clicked on has
been addressed.
- Average:The
Average filter in Graphic Workshop's Filters window
hitherto could ignore the setting of its Wide
Aperture option under some configurations of
Windows. It now pays attention all the time.
- Filter
Preview: The Filter window preview was
disposed to refusing to update correctly under some
configurations of Windows. This has been nailed.
- Alpha
Filters: Some combinations of Filters in
Graphic Workshop's Filter window could cause final
graphics to be displayed entirely in shades of red
and black if alpha transparency was involved. This
has been fixed.
- e-Paint
UltraLight: The Filter interface for e-Paint
UltraLight has been updated to address a number of
crashes.
- Performance:
Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues
that software developers never really stop meddling
with.
- Documentation:
Updates the documentation.

Workshop Professional 11 as yet, please see its initial release announcement

Text Effects #2, #3, #4 and #5 Plugins
Revision 2
(second notification)
|
The Text Effects #2, #3, #4 and #5
animation plugins for GIF Construction Set
Professional 11 and PNG MNG Construction Set 11 have
been updated. In this release:
- User
Interface: Updates plugin user interfaces to
make them cleaner and more intuitive.
- Textures:
Fixes some intermittent crashes when the texture
fill options were used under some configurations of
Windows 10.
- Fountains:
Addresses a problem with the plugins accessing their
fountain libraries under some builds of Windows, and
updates the default fountain libraries with an
expanded palette of entries.
- Code
Review: We've completed a line-by-line review
of the underlying source code of the Text Effects
plugins. This has resulted in a smaller, faster
applications... and we dispatched a number of
stealthy bugs, memory leaks and security issues.
- Performance:
Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues
that software developers never really stop
meddling with.
- Documentation:
Updates the documentation.

Upgrades
If you have valid registration keys
for the Text Effects plugins — no matter how old they
are — they'll work in the latest versions. You will
need version 11 of GIF Construction Set
Professional or PNG MNG Construction Set
to install them, however.
Should your installation of
Construction Set Professional or PNG MNG Construction
Set be older than version 11, we invite you to upgrade
to the current releases for half the single-user
license price.

PNG MNG Construction Set 11 Revision 6
(additional notification)
|
PNG MNG Construction Set 11 has
been updated. In this release:
- WebP:
The WebP library has been updated to address a
number of image quality issues and to enhance its
security.
- JPEG Security: The JPEG
reader has been updated to the newest library
release to address several potential
vulnerabilities. This one's really essential.
We'd like to urge all users of PNG MNG Construction
Set to update to this release as quickly as
possible.
- Plugins:
The plugin interface has been dissuaded of its
propensity for crashing under some configurations of
Windows.
- Export
to WebP: A bug in the Export to WebP window
that could cause the background color in exported
animations to be set incorrectly has been stomped.
- Background
Color: The Animated PNG background color logic
has been updated. This both ensures that your
background colors will be set correctly, and
prevents the software from crashing on occasion,
under some builds of Windows.

that software developers never really stop meddling
with.
