Changelog

0.2.1

Removed

  • The activation screen no longer displays the Show My Drawings, Send Feedback… or Quit buttons.

0.2.0

Added

  • You can now choose where your drawings library lives, so you can backup your files easily. The first time you open the app, you'll be asked to choose a location for the library.

0.1.0

Added

  • You can now export the drawing, or just what you have selected, as SVG, PNG or JPG.
  • Strokes can now be dashed.
  • Holding Space while you drag to resize a shape now carries the shape instead of resizing it.
  • Selecting layers is now undoable.

Improved

  • In outline mode, the marquees follow the shapes' geometry rather than their stroke.
  • Uniting, intersecting and excluding several shapes at once is now much faster.
  • The Curvature Circle tool now recognises a wide rounded corner as an arc and draws its circle.

0.0.35

Improved

  • Offsetting a group now offsets its shapes as a single outline, styled like the frontmost one. To offset them separately, select the shapes instead of the group.
  • A group's frame now takes stroke width into account.

Fixed

  • Pasting now works the same whether you have a group selected or one of the layers inside it.
  • Pasting a layer into a group no longer leaves it out of view. It now always lands somewhere visible.

0.0.34

Added

  • A path collapsed to a single point now keeps a small marker on screen, so you can still see it and click it.

Improved

  • The pen now resumes selected paths inside groups and compound shapes, picking up the nearest free end.
  • The radius field now rounds only the corners or sides you have selected in point editing.
  • The Curvature Circle tool now catches nearby anchors as you hover and when you press and reads the curvature of the shape that owns them.
  • The Tangent, Perpendicular, Tangent Circle and Curvature Circle tools now affect only the curves inside Focus Mode, and treat everything outside it as bare canvas.
  • Pasting with children of a single group selected now lands the copy in that group.
  • It's now possible to align and distribute multiple or all of anchors of a path.

Fixed

  • Point editing now keeps your selected anchors and their handles when you hold Space to pan.
  • Zoomed out, pressing on an anchor that a handle knob overlaps now takes the anchor.
  • The Curvature Circle tool no longer snaps to locked or out-of-focus anchors, so a nearer one you cannot edit no longer hides a valid snap.

0.0.33

Added

  • Selected layers now have a rotation pivot you can see and drag. Pro tip: double-click the pivot to put it back in the center.
  • Angle fields now accept a degree sign (° or º) after any number in an expression, so you can type things like 45° + 10.
  • Delete and ⌫ now remove the last anchor point while you're drawing with the pen.

Improved

  • Rotating a layer now snaps to whole degrees instead of fractional ones.
  • The rotation angle now appears centered at the pivot during regular rotations too, not only when you hold ⌥ to duplicate while rotating.

0.0.32

Added

  • Added shortcuts to make the font bold (⌘B) and italic (⌘I).
  • Rotating a layer with ⌥ to duplicate it now displays the degrees of the rotation.

Improved

  • Clicking an existing text layer with the Text tool now opens it with the caret where you clicked.
  • Up and Down, ⌘← and ⌘→, and ⌘⌫ now follow the lines as they are drawn, in point text as well as in wrapped boxes.
  • Pasting into a selected group or compound shape now lands the copy in place when it already lies over the container.

Fixed

  • The Tangent tool can now generate tangents between two points of the selected layer.
  • Flattening a layer now keeps its opacity and blend mode.
  • Offset path previews no longer end up inside an enclosing boolean when the drawing is saved.
  • The font search no longer autocompletes, autocorrects or spellchecks what you type.

0.0.31

Added

  • Add Smooth & Simplify path tool.

0.0.30

Improved

  • The Offset Path dialog is now smaller and appears above the toolbar. It also requires clicking Apply to create the offset path.
  • Accessibility improvements to the text alignment options make it easier to see which one is selected.
  • Rulers and guides now stay visible in Full Canvas mode.
  • Distance measurements now appear above size labels so they are always readable.
  • Holding Option now also shows distances to locked layers and to layers that overlap the one you've selected.
  • Equal distance indicators now also work inside groups.
  • Hover outlines are hidden while you zoom.
  • When you drag a number field's label to change its value, the cursor now stays in place.
  • After an update, Superlinea now opens in front of your other windows.

Removed

  • Removed Convert to Outlines. To turn text into shapes, use Flatten or Outline Stroke.

0.0.29

Improved

  • Clicking a layer now shows its dimensions.
  • Construction tools now work with boolean operations.
  • Improved the performance of the selection options when many layers are selected.

Added

  • Added distance indicators between the layer you’re dragging and the layers around it. You can also hold the Option key and hover over a layer to see the distances.
  • Added more selection options to the Edit menu: Select None, Select Inverse, and Select All With, which selects layers with the same fill, stroke, fill and stroke, or line weight.
  • Added Flatten and Outline Stroke for text layers.
  • Added two new construction tools: Tangent Circle and Curvature Circle.
