Hallo,

es gibt wieder eine neue Testversion 21.40b13.

Windows:
http://www.pl32.com/beta/pl2140b13.zip

Mac OS:
http://www.pl32.com/beta/plx2140b13.zip


Neues:

• Die Vektorverknüpfungsfunktionen (Vereinigung, Überschneidung, ...) sind jetzt "dynamisch", d.h. es wird eine Pfadgruppe gebildet, die die Originalebenen enthält und das Ergebnis der Operation angezeigt. Diese Pfadgruppe kann auch Rasterbilder oder Textebenen enthalten.
• Textebenengrößenanpassung durch Doppelklick auf Rahmenanfasser
• PDF-Export, 1-Bit-Bilder, unregistrierte Version: Es gab einen Fehler beim Speichern
• Scripting, Windows: mit VBScript funktionierte IPLMatrix.TransformPoints/Sizes/Rectangles nicht
• Vektorpunkte bearbeiten: Durch Doppelklick erzeugte Punkte sind selektiert und können direkt verschoben werden
• Diverse Fehlerbehebungen und kleinere Verbesserungen

New:

• The vector bool operations (union, intersection, ...) are now "dynamic", i.e. a path group is formed that contains the original layers and displays the result of the operation. This path group can also contain raster images or text layers.
• Text layer: size adjustment by double-clicking on frame handle
• PDF export, 1-bit images, unregistered version: there was a saving error
• Scripting, Windows: IPLMatrix.TransformPoints/Sizes/Rectangles did not work with VBScript
• Edit vector points: Points created by double-click are selected and can be moved directly.
• Various bug fixes and minor improvements

Brush stroke preview in the Painting Matrix is excellent, thanks. One thing I noticed is that I can't make the scaling work, no matter the settings I put, neither in the stroke preview or painting.

**EDIT** I did a clean install and everything works fine.

Cheers,
Juan

The live dynamic booleans are "Da Bomb"! Awesome addition. It was actually one thing on my wishlist for PhotoLine.

And thanks so much for the double-click text frame option! That was super quick!

You know what could be awesome? Having the possibility to change the boole type on the fly. Could be possible?

Cheers,

yes

Two small improvements when working with PL:

1) when working in pixel mode, moving layers with the cursor keys should ideally move by 1px default. Now it takes multiple key strokes to move a bitmap layer, for example, by one pixel. Perhaps this can be a preference setting, or so?

2) when cutting or copying a bitmap layer of which the anti-aliasing and pixel snapping properties are set to non-default settings, the pasted version forgets about these settings, and resets to the default settings. It would be preferable to keep these settings.

I can't draw up a parallelogram anymore.The size and coordinates all remain 0.

if you setup an angle of "0" in the tool settings, the parallelogram will be almost not what you want. Check this value.

OK, that's it. Thanks

yes

It was there, thanks.

Can we combine different "boole" operations?. Let me explain, I have two different groups that uses Union, now I would like to use one of those groups to substract to the second group. Is it possible?

Hi all,

When we add a Pattern,Texture or Gradient to a vector layer, we can adjust its size and orientation by using the "Edit Vector Points" tool, but would it be possible to have something like this for the Path Group?, currently the only way to adjust it is by calling the Color Editor dialog.

Hope it makes sense,
Juan

Small problem, when copying a Path Group and pasting it in the same document or into another one the pasted item is a Vector Group.
I'm on Win10.

Cheers,
Juan

I will change that. IIf the pixel grid is active, the cursor keys will move by whole pixels.

I will change that.

You can use different operations inside a path group and you can use path groups (or virtual copies) inside a path group.

The current version does have a problem, though, as it won't allow you to create a path group that isn't based on vector layers. I will change that.
So in order to use a path group inside a path group, you will have to drag it there using the layer list.

The "Edit Vector points" tool will be available with path groups in the next version.

I will fix that.
