@github-actions github-actions released this 30 Oct 03:00

A big one: a new home screen, Clip Studio files, phone and tablet layouts for Sue Paint, a much fuller Sue Writer, and Sue in your browser.

Highlights

  • The Hub. Sue now opens on a home page with a box for every studio and tool, plus your recent, saved and unsaved work. Pin one to open straight into it.
  • Clip Studio .clip files. Sue Paint opens and saves .clip, and Save now writes .clip by default. Clip Studio Paint opens them with layers, folders, blend modes and opacity, and Sue reopens them with nothing lost.
  • Sue Paint start page. Draw, Projects and Manage Materials, like Clip Studio's launcher, with nothing online.
  • Sue Paint on phones and tablets. A new start page, a New canvas page with templates, and Simple and Studio modes.
  • Try it in your browser at https://magigun.github.io/sue/try/, with nothing to install.
  • Your language. Sue starts in your system's language. Change it for everything from the Sue menu, or per studio in Settings. Spanish and Japanese are early drafts, and translations are welcome.
  • Layout switch. The Sue menu's Layout runs all of Sue in its tablet or phone layout on a computer.
  • Autosave. Unsaved work is kept, and you can recover or discard it from the Hub.

Sue Writer

  • Tables, headers and footers, a table of contents, comments and track changes.
  • Spell check as you type, footnotes and endnotes.
  • Find and Replace with regular expressions, Change Case and more.
  • Opens LibreOffice .odt files, and Word files bring their tables.
  • The caret glides smoothly as you type.

Also changed

  • Font menus show each font in its own font.
  • Settings fits phones, tablets and desktops properly.
  • Opening and saving use your system's own file windows, on phones and tablets too.
  • The infinite canvas and the side panels are gone.
  • Fixes for phone keyboards, crashes on narrow pages, and colours in light themes.

Installing

Windows: Sue-0.0.4-windows-x64-setup.exe is the easiest (x86 for 32-bit PCs, arm64 for ARM ones). The .msi is the same installer for managed PCs, and the -portable.zip runs from any folder. Or install with Scoop:

scoop install https://github.com/MagiGun/sue/releases/latest/download/sue.json

Sue is not code-signed yet, so Windows may say "Windows protected your PC" or "Unknown publisher". Choose More info, then Run anyway. Before extracting the portable zip, right-click it, choose Properties and tick Unblock, or Windows asks again for every program inside. Scoop installs without the warning.

macOS: the .dmg. Linux: the AppImage runs almost anywhere; there are also a Flatpak, .deb, .rpm, an Arch package and a tarball. Android: the .apk. FreeBSD and iPhone and iPad (to sign with your own Apple account) have packages too. More at https://magigun.github.io/sue/.
