Release Notes for Acorn 1.2
What's New:
New "Last Filter" item under the Filter menu.
New "Offset" filter under Filter->Tile Effect.
New menu items: New Layer With Selection / New Layer With Selection via Cut.
Fancy Crop: the crop tool now tries to figure out a nice default if you just click on the canvas without dragging.
New Overlay blend mode for layers.
You can now drag and drop acorn documents into a canvas to add layers to the image.
Acorn can now open and save JPEG 2000 images.
Holding down the option key when choosing a core image filter from the Filter menu, now applies it right away without bringing up the filter panel.
Holding down the option key when moving a bitmap selection with the move tool now duplicates it.
Holding down the shift key when pressing 's' now rotates backwards through the selection tools.
Paste added to the context menu.
Shape layers get a lighter border for the thumbnail preview in the layers list, to differentiate it from bitmap layers..
Smarter trim command, now crops to the edge color and not just alpha pixels.
Holding down the option key when using Trim to Edges works just like Fancy Crop (tm!) does.
Using the arrow keys to move shape layers now works if no objects are selected.
You can now move shapes when in rect tool mode, by holding down the command key and clicking on a shape to move it.
Reworked the context menu, and added "Rasterize Layer" for shape layers.
What's Changed:
No longer displaying the filter panel when a core image filter does not have any options. To force the panel to come up, hold down the option key.
Improved rectangle selections when zoomed in.
Moved the Flickr Uploadr menu item to the File/Actions menu, to make Brad Ellis happy.
Removed some filters from the Filter menu which didn't really make any sense to be in Acorn. However, all core image filters are still available in the filter panel filter picker sheet.
Renamed "Transform Selection" to "Transform", since it didn't actually require a selection.
The tool palette no longer shows a bad cursor x/y location when all documents have been closed, and no longer updates when a mouse is not over a canvas window.
Tweaked shift-selection options to more closely match what people expect from using other applications (And you can now hold down option for center selections).
Tweaked the way tolerance is computed for the flood fill and magic wand tools.
Updated brush cursor look.
What's Fixed:
Acorn canvases no longer accept first clicks (for drawing or other actions) when the its is not frontmost.
Closing the tool palette no longer causes the current document to throw up a save sheet when it's dirty.
Documented newDocumentWithImageData: in NSDocumentController for plugin authors.
Fixed a bug where images on a shape layer were not being displayed when using QuickLook.
Fixed a bug where making tiny screenshots would grab the wrong portion of the screen.
Fixed a bug where option-clicking on a color (while in brush mode) gave you a color that was slightly off from what was presented.
Fixed a bug where transforming a selection on a bitmap layer which wasn't 100% opaque, would cause some funkiness when committed.
Fixed a bug where you could not set the font to be condensed bold.
Fixed a bug where you were still given cursors to resize with the crop tool, even though it was no longer around.
Fixed a problem where there was ghosting along the edges of a selection, when filling or drawing in the selection with a brush.
Fixed some memory leaks.
Improved placement when pasting bitmap images.
Improvements to drag and drop.
The grid no longer draws with a shadow when using the gradient tool.
The grid now draws properly when zoomed in or out.
The startup window no longer floats above everything.
