BX Designs 0.10.3

BX Designs 0.10.3 for Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit), by BuildX Multimedia.

Install: download BX-Designs-windows.zip, unzip it, and double-click Install BX Designs. No administrator rights are needed. Windows may say "Windows protected your PC" because this build isn't code-signed yet: click More info, then Run anyway. Installing over an older version keeps your settings.

New

• Community templates: designers can publish their own designs as templates from the Design Library (https://dada-boat.github.io/bx-designs-store/library.html), and everyone can open them from the template store.

Fixed

• "Open in BX Designs" links repair themselves: BX Designs checks on every start that template-store links open in it, and fixes the link if it went missing or points to a removed copy.
• CMYK documents: the Channel Mixer now mixes ink amounts with all four ink records (cyan, magenta, yellow and black), as Photoshop does, and keeps them when saving PSD files.

BX Designs 0.10.2

BX Designs 0.10.2 for Windows 10 and 11 (64-bit), by BuildX Multimedia.

Fixed

• "Open in BX Designs" on the template store and the Design Library now works while BX Designs is already open: the design opens as a new tab in your window. (Before, it only worked when BX Designs was closed.)

Also in 0.10.x: Store › Design Library, faster big brushes, JPEG Options, Help › Check for Updates, recently used fonts, Camera Raw defaults, and the template store at https://dada-boat.github.io/bx-designs-store/.
