OxyBrush 4.0.0-beta.6

[crisprintsstuff]

OxyBrush 4.0.0-beta.6 answers two tester requests: undo on one piece without touching the others, and turning a stroke into a curve. It's still a beta: please report issues (or use Help > Report a bug… in the app), or talk about it on Discord.

First launch:

• macOS: open the .dmg, drag OxyBrush to Applications, and open it from there. If macOS shows an untrusted developer warning, go to System Settings > Privacy & Security, scroll down and click Open Anyway.
• Windows: SmartScreen warns about an unknown publisher: click More info, then Run anyway.

New

• Undo on this piece (Ctrl+Alt+Z, redo Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Z, also in the Edit menu). It takes back the last change to the active piece only, even if you've changed other pieces since; their changes stay. To make plain Ctrl+Z work this way, turn on Preferences > General > Undo works on the active piece; Edit > Undo in whole scene then does the usual undo. The History section can show only the active piece's changes.

  A change that touched several pieces at once (Join, Merge, Split…) can only be undone this way when nothing came after it; the status bar tells you when to use whole-scene undo instead.

• Edit > Last stroke: right after a Freehand stroke, reopen it as an editable curve with the same brush (drag its points, then press Enter), or use its path as a Curve Move curve or a tube path. The path lands where you drew it even if you've turned the view since. Edit as curve can also be given a key in the keymap.

See the changelog for details.

Known limitations

• Only the most recent Freehand stroke can be reopened, and only while it's still the newest change on its piece. Reopening any earlier stroke is planned as Living strokes.
• Pieces created by Join, Duplicate or Split can't have their creation undone per piece; use whole-scene undo.

Project files

Projects from earlier betas open unchanged; this release doesn't change the project format.
