Bling Painter
New tool to easily change bed types. It works no matter to what object the beads belong, and even for exploded beads
Select by Shape
A new Selection mode, using autoshapes. It works with exploded beads and allows bead selection to create nice effects in seconds

Grid Repetitions tool tab
A new, full interactive tool tab, allows better control of grid repetitions.
The tooltab appears when you select Grid Repetitions at the Repetitions group in the main toolbar.
Distribute Objects
A new function makes it easier to arrange the selected objects so that they have the same horizontal or vertical spacing.
Beads Alignment
Now you can use the alignment functions with a group of selected beads.
New Auto-scroll feature
Follow the shapes of the images while digitizing using the new In Leaps auto-scroll mode.
When you reach the auto-scroll region, the system automatically scrolls the workspace but keeping the pointer at the same coordinates.
You can enable the feature during creation or edition. Auto-scroll details (activation, mode, region and leap size) are configurable from the Options box
• Better font browsing: A larger sample is shown when you open the font catalog box
•Allows easy and accurate alignment of any type of object or block to the guidelines. This snap is always active while guidelines are visible, however, you can disable it by pressing and holding the ALT key
•Improved Recent Files panel: You can now pin designs so that they always remain in the panel. Design paths are now displayed with friendly names (Documents, Desktop, etc.). The recent files list was expanded from 30 to 100 items. •Snap to Hot Points is now available for bling objects •Function Exact Line: now available while creating bling objects •Sort by name, date, size, etc. is now available for the thumbnail view in Open and Save designs boxes. •Design files thumbnails improved: Non auxiliary images (print, cut) are now drawn without the shaded pattern. •Creation timer: Displays the time you have been working with the design. Automatically pauses when you stop working and resumes with the first click in the workspace. Available at the Information tab (right edge of the window) •New Save Simulation command allows you to save your design as an image with transparent background. •Better node selection: During editing, when a node is selected and you click to select another node in a region where there are nodes of various types (contour, direction lines, etc.), the system now prioritizes the nodes of the same type as the selected one. This allows a more contextual node edition. |
