Graphic Workshop Professional 14 Revision 6

Graphic Workshop Professional 14 has been updated.

In this release:

• JPEG Security: The Graphic Workshop JPEG library has been updated to the latest release to address several potential security and performance issues. We'd like to take this opportunity to urge all users of Graphic Workshop to update to this release, 'coz the universe has a lot of really bad people in it.
  
  The current version of the JPEG library is available in the About → Credits window. It's currently 2.1.5.1.
  
  
• Multiple Selection: The multiple image selection window in Graphic Workshop — which gets involved with animations, videos and multiple-image graphic documents — has had a number of issues addressed. Its selected image resolution display is now working correctly under all configurations of Windows, and it always updates its preview image correctly, among others.
  
  
• Delete: The file deletion functions of Graphic Workshop have been updated. You can configure the prompt window to appear or not, as you wish. The progress window won't pop up for single document deletions — it had become so quick as to be pretty much unreadable previously. Graphic Workshop will play an audible confirmation sound when it deletes single files.
  
  
• Undo Delete: Graphic Workshop now has an Undo Delete function. If you delete one or more documents from within a Graphic Workshop browser window to the Windows recycle bin and then think better of their disappearance, select Undo Delete from the Edit menu, or hit Ctrl-Z. Be sure to read the section of the Reference document that deals with file deletion to get this feature fully surrounded.
  
  Undo Delete is only available in the 64-bit edition of Graphic Workshop.
  
  
• ICO Thumbnails: The logic that selects images from Windows ICO files to create Graphic Workshop's thumbnails has been improved to generate more attractive, readable ones.
  
  
• WebP: Nails a bug that caused eight-bit animations and videos converted to WebP to turn red under some configurations of Windows.
  
  
• AVI: Addresses an issue that prevented some animation formats from being converted to AVI video.

  The current version of the JPEG library is available in the About → Credits window. It's currently 2.1.5.1.
  
  
• WebP Security: The Ultimate Screen Clock's WebP library has been updated to the latest release to address several potential security and performance issues.
  
  The current version of the WebP library is available in the About → Credits window. It's currently 1.3.0.

• Photoclock Style: A number of cosmetic issues in the Photoclock style have been addressed.
  
  Add your photographs to the Photoclock style to create inspired personalized clocks. Enjoy friends, family and beloved pets with clock mechanisms installed in their noses. We hasten to note that the example to your right, shown here at a somewhat diminished resolution, hardly does justice to the Photoclock — you can double-click on it to see a life-size animated clock. Also, if your beloved pet looks anything like the example here, you might need some new friends and family the next time you forget to feed it.
  
  
• Performance: Addresses a number of GDI and performance issues that software developers never really stop meddling with.
  
  
• Documentation: Updates the documentation.
