GraFx Studio

Version 0.102.2, using Studio SDK 0.102.0

Features

  • You can now add swatches to your Stylekit and use them in your template, e.g. to change the color of your text via a paragraph or character style (👉 click the color field to open the color picker, where you can go to the swatches tab to select a swatch)
  • The color picker now comes in two versions, one for defining a swatch (where you cannot set the opacity or select another swatch) and one for applying a color (where you can choose between a custom color or a swatch and where you can change the opacity)
  • You can pan and zoom the canvas by using two-finger gestures on the trackpad, even if the Hand or Zoom tool is not selected

Improvements

  • Improved text selection and text cursor positioning
  • Simplified the character style settings by removing the indeterminate state for fill color (👉 when you leave the fill color unchecked the color is not applied, which means the default black or the color from the applied paragraph style is used)
  • The default Arial Regular font is always available in the dropdown menu where you can select a font
  • Renaming a font in the Stylekit is blocked (👉 you cannot rename a font in the Stylekit, but this was not blocked and caused an incorrect rename state)
  • Removed variable name input field from the variables settings panel (👉 you can rename a variable by double clicking the variable name in the list)
