Graphic Workshop
Professional 14 Revision 7
|
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.
Click on the blue
button to download Graphic Workshop Professional 14.
