New Features in Acorn 1.1

• View and correct your image using a histogram.

• Optimize and preview your image for the web, using the new Web Export menu command under the File menu. File actions are also available in the preview window.

• You can now resize the image as a percentage in the image resize sheet.

• You can now drag an image out of the layers list, into another layer or destination (such as the Desktop or iPhoto) as a PNG.
• Option-drag bitmap layers in the canvas and layers list to duplicate.

• A whole new way to crop an image, using a helper window. You can now type in the crop dimensions as well.
• Holding down the shift key when resizing a crop selection now keeps its aspect ratio.

• We've added a new New Drop Shadow filter under the Filter->Stylize menu.

• There's now a "Trim to Edges" command in Image menu, which will crop your image as much as it can to get rid of any extra alpha areas.
• New menu command to move shapes forward and back within their layer. Under Layer->Shape Align and Size.
• New menu command to hide/show the current layer (cmd-shift-h).

• Use the new Polygon selection tool under the selection palette make polygonal selections in your image.

• The undo engine in Acorn has been re-written to use less memory. Improvements to the speed of Acorn have also been added.

• Added support for loading plugins out of /Library/Application Support/Acorn/Plug-Ins/.
• Holding down the shift key when moving a marque or a selection constrains it to 45 degree increments.
• Snapping to 45% angles when modifying a line shape now works.
• Highlighting the current vector graphic under the mouse in a shape layer to help with making a selection.

• Deleting a layer while its name is being edited, no longer assigns the new name to the layer below it.
• New documents get a default color space of RGB.
• Gradients are a bit smoother.
• The font panel now correctly chooses fonts with the correct weight, such as "Extra Black".
• When dragging around a layer in the layers list, you now just get an icon of the image, instead of the whole row.
• Acorn images without an icon thumbnail now have a generic "Acorn Image" icon.
• Uses less memory, now using a database on disk for undo operations.
• Fixed a crasher when opening up Acorn documents with set color spaces.
• Fixed a problemo where picking up a color with the option key (when in brush mode) was only picking up a color from the current layer, and not a composite of all the visible layers.
• Fixed a problemo where picking up a color with the option key (when in brush mode) was off by a pixel.
• Single clicking on an image with the move tool no longer makes the document "dirty", allowing a worthless, pointless, empty undo action.
• It's now a bit easier to grab handles on shapes when you are zoomed out.
• Various little crop improvements.
• The input box for the feather selection now updates the slider right away.
• Added a workaround for a bug in 10.5, where resizing the image would add "peppers".
• Fixed a bug where a magic wand selection would be funky if the layer that was being clicked on was larger than the canvas.
• Fixed a bug where the contents of a selection would draw in a strange place when you started to move it on a bitmap layer.
• Drawing on a layer when the compositing mode is set to multiply now works correctly.
• Fixed a problem where editing text would sometimes not wrap to the set bounds.
• Fixed some bugs with the line tool. Probably added some new ones.
• Screenshots are now faster and support multiple monitors.
• Fixed a bug when sliding the screen shot selection to the bottom of the monitor.
