Version History

New for 4.1.4 beta

• Changed brush cross-hair cursor to pen cursor, which is more visible on HD display.

New for 4.1.3 beta

• Removed the feature of temporarily switch to eyedropper when pressing Ctrl key when using brush, because quite a few users have issue with it.
• Enabled .json based localization for resize dialog.
• Add Ctrl+Shift+Z for redo, in addition to Ctrl+Y.
• Greek localization files provided by geogeo.gr.

New for 4.1.2 beta

• Convert remaining dialogs to WPF so that they work well on high DPI display.
• Hatch brush is back.
• .NET Framework 4.6 is now used.

New for 4.1.1 beta

• Main window is rewritten with WPF, so should work for high DPI display.

New for 4.1.0 beta

• Removed dependency on WinTab32, which is the old tablet device interface. Now it uses Windows system’s ink device support, which should have better compatibility with various types of input devices.
• New paint window UI, which is written on top of WPF. Going this path paves the way to support Windows 10 devices in future.

New for 4.0.5

• Draw straight lines by holding Shift key. (Experimental)

New for 4.0.4

• Fix .sddoc save/load failure. This bug is introduced by a build time tool which is used since version 4. This means .sddoc files saved by 4.0.1 - 4.0.3 cannot be opened by other versions. You have to resave files in an other format so that other version can open them.

New for 4.0.3

• Shortcut key for colors in palette

New for 4.0.2

• Bring back shortcut keys for copy/paste

New for 4.0.1

• New design direction and new UI
• Localization by JSON files (Anyone now can create translations by copying and modifying these JSON text files. Just put them in a subfolder named after ISO culture name. E.g. de-DE, fr-FR, ru-RU.)
• Upgraded to .NET Framework 4.0
