AmigaOS 4: SketchBlock Pro 3.3
"SketchBlock is a powerful digital painting package for AmigaOS 4.1, offering smooth, responsive tools to create images in High Dynamic Range colour" developed by Andy Broad. Since version 3, SketchBlock has become a commercial software and can be purchased in the Amistore. For users of this version a free update is available.
Changes of version 3.3:
- Dynamic loading of brush data: The full set of brushes can use up to 100 MB of memory when loaded on startup, so now brushes are loaded on demand
- Add Erase filter: This allows eraseing selected areas of layers to the background colour/transparent; some standard menu items using this function
- Textures: Drawing operations can now be modified by a texture. Any layer can be used as a texture, but a custom list of dedicated texture layers is also maintained. Some example textures cane be loaded via the new textures menu. Currently only the paint tool supports the texture operation, and this can be enabled via two new switches at the bottom of it's settings.

AmigaOS 4: Enhancer Software 1.5
Press release: A-EON Technology is pleased to confirm immediate download available of the Enhancer Software 1.5. This is the sixth public release and can be downloaded for free using the Updater tool for existing Enhancer Software owners. All three variants of the Enhancer Software have been updated: Plus, Standard and Special Edition.
Many updates have been implemented in version 1.5, both major and minor bringing the package to higher standards. Warp3D Nova and OpenGLES 2 library have had major updates including significant work towards enabling the recent GL4ES wrapper and game ports to work. MultiViewer: If Warp3D Nova is available, it is now used for 2D image rendering and processing. This means that the old Picasso96 graphics system is no longer used by MultiViewer for rendering 2D images so the entire range of video memory on the graphics card can be used by MultiViewer.
