@encart said in No panels on startup, opening a backup copy does not work: Although you can see ticks in the panel menu, the panels are not visible I have the opposite - a lot of panels opened and a few panels ticked (since I work on VS - from version 1.1.06x): [image: 1690135719212-obraz_2023-07-23_200836216-resized.png]

@Subpath said in Copy and paste line with a brush style: Sorry, I guess I'm missing the point. Don't get me wrong. Copy and paste line with a brush style does happen correctly when registered as preset in app. Not when not registered. Strange to me too. Anyway, registered in the buglog.

@Boldline said in Can custom preferences file remain intact during updates?: Is there a way to keep the same custom preferences file when performing a build update in VS? Normally, it should keep the current settings file. But there were some changes on how these are handled internally and it might have reset them.

@Ayo yes there seems to be a bit of smoothing inside, can be replicate here also. I added this to the backlog of bugs.

@Harry said in How to print / export outlines in SVG file?: I'm trying to print the outline preview, but without success. (I'm assuming it is only for preview purposes.) Yes, that is only for preview. The way to do this is to remove all fill styles and set the stroke style to a solid width with black color.

@VectorStyler Yep, I suspected that.

@Buntstift The SVG export bug (for uneven cap endings) will be fixed in the next build. The file size is caused by some embedded color profiles (at least one large CMYK color profile).

@dcr said in License Code Invalid: What could cause the license to become invalid? Not sure what caused this, but from the license server it seems that the license code was fine but it was missing the name and email. Could be that the VectorStyler application data was removed from the applications folder. Is there a file I need to backup? No need to backup anything, just use the license key with the name and email. Is license data stored in the application package such that I can just keep a backup of the app and restore it if needed? Keep the original license email, that will be sufficient if the license is asked again, or if you need to move to a new computer.

@VectorStyler said in SVG Export Outline Issue: @Igull There seem to be stroke width profiles used, they are all uniform, but even in this case it will be expanded when exporting. Select all shapes and use the solid stroke button in the Stroke panel (second last in the icon row), to clear all stroke attributes. Yes, it seems that the stroke profile was the issue. I have no idea how that came about, I would never have a use for that. I can only assume that I hit the wrong choice in the stroke panel at some point and when doing copy/paste for common parts, just extended the issue ! Thanks for finding that, makes sense when you say that the stroke is profiled - I can't imagine another app being able to pick up on that unless it was an outline - certainly as an SVG export at least Thanks, you saved the day - and a good number of hours of work Neil

@Ayo In this case "top level" means the character formatting applied to the whole text (as an object). And "local" means character formatting on any part less than the whole. Of course, this is easy to change if it is really needed, not sure how it is done in other parts

@heuristicbishop said in Color replace one palette with another?: Can't wait for a proper API to play with so I can whip up my own silly plugins! VS can save its document in XML or JSON formats (Document Setup -> File -> File Format), that can be then manipulated with external scripts / tools.

@Boldline Looks like it is not updated correctly.

@VectorStyler said in Single click fill select: Clicking again will select the next object behind the selected one Works very nice, without modifier key!

@Ayo said in Instruction for customizing icons?: Can someone give me a suggestion where I can find an instruction for customizing icons? Any post or video somewhere? I want to change an existing icon. Which is possible according to the documentation. The online manual v1.1.085 is too general about this. The only way for now is with Symbols, as described by @b77

@Ayo Nice!

@Ayo said in Installation Apple Silicon to Universal: I hope that two installations are allowed. Yes allowed, including Windows. You can freely choose which one (Universal, Apple Silicon, or Intel) version. When updating, it will keep the selected one.

Thanks! Just purchased a license! The download server from Finland is already for a few weeks slow 11kb/sec. Have the Russians cut the cable or is it my problem? Three hours to go according to the download indicator. @VectorStyler said in Editing prefs proposal: All comments are welcome and please feel free to comment (even negative ones) in the future. This is the only way VectorStyler can be improved. Right! Did they actually sue Adobe, and got some coupons? Also, I think the main guy there started to do Gravit (not sure). I believe they never came that far. And yes, frontman started Gravit. In the beginning shared his progress and first drawing tools following the Freehand philosophy regularly online. Later it became quiet. Now it looks like sold to- and become a part of Corel. yes, this would be great to know. You are eager! @Subpath ps: it sounds to me that your german ? Dutch as I mentioned

@Pat Should not change the opacity, but it replicates here also. I will try to fix this ASAP.

Thank you! That was very helpful. Obviously the lines had problems with the snapping settings.

@VectorStyler I'll send you this file again asap. The fill colour of one of the contour object can not be changed.
