Graphic Workshop Professional 12 Revision 15





Graphic Workshop Professional 12 has been updated.

In this release:

  • Memory Leak: A decidedly pernicious memory leak in Graphic Workshop Professional's folder interface under some configurations of Windows has been stomped. Left to its own devices, it could crash the application.

    We'd like to urge all users of     Graphic Workshop Professional to update to this release as quickly as possible.

  • WebP: The WebP library interface has been improved. In addition, the current library version number can now be found in the Credits list of Graphic Workshop Professional's About window. The current release is 1.2.2.

  • Print Dodecahedron: Several cosmetic issues and a bug that prevented the dash mode setting from working correctly under some builds of Windows have been nailed.

  • Selected Size: The status pane at the bottom of Graphic Workshop's application window now displays the total size of all the selected files in a browser, as well as the number of selected files.
  • Print Contact Sheets: The Contact Sheet print function has been refined, with better graphics and a live image sample pane for users of Windows 10 and better.

  • Prompt Before Overwrite: The Prompt Before Overwrite window has been updated so it no longer shows a filler graphic for its thumbnails if the files involved are really large. It also corrects an issue which could cause it to display the same thumbnail for new and existing files in some situations.

  • Delete: The Delete prompt window has been updated so it no longer shows a filler graphic if you delete a very large file... as long as you're running Graphic Workshop under Windows 10 or better. It will display a thumbnail of the first selected graphic if you have Graphic Workshop delete multiple documents in a batch.
  • Get Information: The Get Information window has been refined so it's quicker, and displays thumbnails even if it's confronted with really large graphics.

  • Catalog: The Catalog window has been updated to use live previews, and to fix a number of cosmetic and rendering issues under some builds of Windows.

  • Window Thumbnails: All the windows in Graphic Workshop that display thumbnails will open with even less delay, even for really large graphics.

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.
