v10.0 [Mar 8, 2017]
NEW! The amazing Photo Analyzer.
Select any photo on your design and then press a special button to see the dominant colors in the photo. You can then create a color scheme based on these colors.
NEW! Create designer-worthy color schemes.
Use the built-in color wheel to discover color combinations based on the same color theory that artists use. To make your color exploration more fun, the color wheel spins when you select a new base color and offers educational tips.
NEW! Perfect blends between colors.
Create blends between two colors to create a monochromatic look that's pleasing to the eye. Supports tints, shades, tones, and custom blends.
NEW! Grab the color of any pixel.
Use the eyedropper tool to quickly and easily retrieve the color of any pixel on your screen — a convenient way to create color schemes from artwork or source material already on your design.
NEW! Warm vs cool colors.
Warm versus cool refers to the psychological impact colors have in conveying a message. Warm colors are frequently associated with the warm of fire and the sun while cool colors are frequently associated with the coolness of the sea, sky, and foliage. The warm/cool indicator divides the color wheel into warm and cool colors, so you correctly convey the messaging you want.
v7.5 [Dec 3, 2012]
• Image placeholders now work like shape placeholders: when a photo is dropped on the placeholder, it's automatically cropped to the placeholder bounds. Previously, the image would be resized to completely fit in the placeholder bounds which customers found confusing.
• iPhoto libraries can now be selected when using the "Choose Aperture Library" command (since Aperture can also open iPhoto libraries)
• The Transparency and Shadow tools are now available in the inspector window even if multiple different types of graphics are selected (e.g. image, text, shape).
• Fixed problem pasting multiple objects at once (like a group of objects) where some of the objects in the group weren't positioned correctly relative to the other objects in the group
• Fixed problem pasting multiple objects at once where all of the pasted objects wouldn't be selected
• Fixed problem that could occur in Preview mode if the data being inserted into fields is too large for the text box
• Fixed problem dragging a graphic from the Favorites Browser to a placeholder on the Canvas
• Fixed problem where pasted graphics would sometimes appear blank
• Fixed a problem that caused "soft color" fills to not work correctly when running on a Retina Mac (even if the app was being displayed on a non-Retina screen)
• Fixed problem changing settings for multiple selected objects at once (e.g. removing a drop shadow, changing the color fill or transparency, etc.)
• Fixed a problem where a document wasn't marked as dirty in certain situations
• Fixed problem where the Canvas would scroll when the document was saved
