One day, there will be something useful in this box (like screenshots, screencasts)

Release 0.78 - Text scaling and a better picker

So here’s the easter release! No bunnies though but a few welcome improvements instead:

  • Text can now be scaled correctly by dragging the handles. That makes it kinda usable (finally!)
  • The color picker now displays a zoomed version in the lower left corner. Makes it easier to pick the color.
  • Picking a color only on active layer on a text layer now works.
  • Magic wand and color picker fixed when picking only active layer (picked dull colors bug)
  • Text rendering should be faster and leave less artifacts (white borders or text rendered twice)
  • Handles are now smaller by default, with still the ability to enable the large ones using the View menu.
  • Betas now expire with a warning but let the user 30 days to update before really expiring.

The app is now 100kb smaller although it has a few new images, never hurts! So be happy and update now, it won’t waste your bandwidth.

    Just wanted to say that I until just recently had not heard of your application. (Found it via a reference in a comment to a MacWorld article reviewing pixelmator).

    Just wanted to encourage you to keep up the good work. I’m having a lot of both use and fun with ChocoFlop.
