@VectorStyler thanks, will do

@monsterfox The file cannot be recovered as its saving was not completed. What feature caused the lag?

@monsterfox said in Detail Optimizations for Version 1.3: This is about the Halftone image effect: 1. The color of halftone graphics cannot be changed. I will try to add this if possible (later) 2. As can be seen from the effect in the image, the background cannot be made transparent, with a visible white background. This cannot be done with the image effect, but the vector halftone effect should be able to do it.

@VectorStyler EDIT: Ah, I understand now: you meant the functions under Edit-->Attributes. I didn't know of these yet I think the procedure is still cumbersome in comparison as stated below. Also I get an unintended offset. I dont know if I understand you, but if I replicate your suggestion stepwise it does not produce a new path on top of a mask and the masked elements. Sorry for referring til AI; it's makes it perhaps a bit unclear: AI: When I select a shape (the mask)with select tool (A), change tol select tool (V) and thus paste in front (cmd-F) I'll achieve what I want: a duplicate on top. This also goes for grouped shapes/objects and is useful for fast editing of effects exactly on top of an existing visual element.

@Boldline no problem with that here, i use firefox the title keeps its position even when scrolling [image: 1769465748181-title-issue.png]

@VectorStyler said in New Forum - Problem to reach the edit Post Button: @Subpath I managed to turn it off try it now. Browser: i use Firefox Button: yes is gone and i can see and use the Edit button now

Some more news about MagicaCSG SDF Modeler, which also touches on the topic of vector graphics. The developer is working on basic support for importing .SVG and .MCSG files for kitbashing. . . I therefore asked him if SVG export (for vector graphics) will be possible. Adobe's Project Neo already offers this feature. His answer: "That's not currently planned, but at least Bézier polygons/polylines will be exportable as SVG in the future." Here's an image from the Dev how SVG import is going so far.

@VectorStyler said in Import svg patterns: The object that was filled with the pattern is large and when expanding creates a lot of small clipping groups. This is slow to render for now. Thanks for checking on this. Yes, the pattern has a lot of objects but it looks like imported patterns are expanded using more nested clipping group layers than patterns created within VS. If the pattern expansion could be improved to remove un-necessary grouping, it could improve performance

@Raven I could not replicate this. I tried it on Macos 10.12 (Sierra) with a retina display (iMac 27")

@Ingolf I checked this in other apps (AI, AD), and the "Close" command is the same as the Close View in VectorStyler, it closes a single view of a multiple view document

@VectorStyler Thanks, will do that in the meantime

@Raven Got it, thanks! I will try to replicate with these.

Fixed. thanks.

Fixed. thanks

@VectorStyler thank you so much for the quick update. Both svg imports issues have been corrected !

@William-Kansepa said in Spell Checker: @VectorStyler thank you, the Spell Checker is now working! Question: Is it possible to improve the Spell Checker such that it automatically highlights or underlines and displays the misspelt word in the Error input box? Also to have the most likely suggestion showing at the top in the Suggestions input box? Pressing the "Next" button should highlight the next word and bring it into the error field, also in this case a suggestion (if exists) is shown.

@Boldline @Subpath I added this sto the backlog opf features for 1.4

@FanVidder I don't find the basic steps all that complicated. CorelDraw was my main application before VS, i know a few other vector graphic apps too. It took me a while to get used to the new terminology. It might look complicated, and some functions are harder to understand. Just take your time and go step by step. Yes, there aren't many tutorials on YouTube, probably due to the still small user base. I do post tutorials here in the forum from time to time, but I have no interest in dealing with YouTube; it's just too much effort. The best thing to do is search the forum, check out the tutorial section, or simply ask.
