Graphic Workshop Professional 12 Revision 6





Graphic Workshop Professional 12 has been updated.

In this release:

  • Web Gallery: A bug that could cause the graphics created by Web Gallery to become afflicted with watermarks under some configurations of Windows has been addressed... and stomped into oblivion.

  • Also Web Gallery: Web Gallery can now generate pages with your choice of links for its clickable thumbnails, and with custom buttons for some or all of its items, to link to other content. See the discussions of Links and Buttons respectively in the Web Gallery section of Graphic Workshop's Reference document.

    Among other things, you can now use Web Gallery to create product catalogs with convenient links to buy whatever's listed therein.

  • Animation Workshop UltraLight: An issue with the Image object Preview window has been addressed... which hitherto caused it to display partial graphics under some configurations of Windows.

  • Save As: Graphic Workshop's Save As window could hitherto select incorrect file names if you attempted to use an existing name and edit it. This is now history.

  • Default Beep: The change folder sound that Graphic Workshop plays... perhaps not surprisingly when you change folders... has found itself tasked with signalling the conclusion of a number of processes in Graphic Workshop and its ancillary applications. It has come to our attention that the Windows sound that it references by default can be really annoying in other contexts, and a substantial number of Windows 10 and 11 users disable it... which also silences Graphic Workshop.

    Should you find yourself thus afflicted, you can now copy any short WAV file sound to the Alchemy Mindworks configuration data folder — see the Configuration document in Graphic Workshop's manual for assistance in locating it     — and name said file Notify.wav to have it serve as Graphic Workshop's default noise.

    See the discussion of the ChangeFolderSound item in the aforementioned Configuration document for more about this option.
  • ZIP / RAR Preview: The multiple image selection window that appears if you have Graphic Workshop view or process graphics stored in a ZIP or RAR archive formerly failed to display preview images under some configurations of Windows. It has been disabused of this behavior.

If you haven't experienced Graphic Workshop Professional 12 as yet, please see its initial release announcement for a list of all its new and enhanced functionality.

Announcing Pagan Daybook 12



Pagan Daybook 12 has been released.

We've added new functionality to Pagan Daybook, improved its performance and generally refined it to better get along with Windows 10 and 11. (We hasten to add that it still performs admirably under earlier builds of Windows, all the way back to Windows XP, if you're feeling retro.)

Among the new features and enhancements to Pagan Daybook 12, you'll find...

  • Quick 64-bit Architecture: Pagan Daybook is now available in both traditional 32-bit and leading-edge 64-bit editions. The 64-bit software is fast, gets along more favorably with Windows and pretty much never runs into memory issues. We hasten to note that registering or updating to Pagan Daybook 12 will avail you of a registration key that works with either edition... or both, if you're feeling adventurous.

  • Windows 11 Compatible: The version 11 software has been showing some decidedly rough edges under Windows 11, and may stop installing and/or running therein. Pagan Daybook 12 rocks under Windows 11.

  • Observance Database: Pagan Daybook's oracle of festivals, observances and holidays has been refined and updated.

  • JPEG Security: Pagan Daybook's Turbo JPEG library has been updated to the latest release to address some security issues.
    We'd like to urge all users of Pagan Daybook to update to this release as quickly as possible.
  • Performance: Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software developers never really stop meddling with.
         
  • Documentation: Updates the documentation.

Announcing Font Wrangler 12



Font Wrangler 12 has been released.
