3.7.0
Added
- Effect preview controls: pick what the preview runs (this card alone, the stack up to it, or the whole stack) and what surrounds the layer (the scene, only what's beneath it, or nothing). Resolution follows your zoom, or pin it to Full, ½ or ¼.
- Play and pause in the effect preview. A card too heavy to play live waits for you to press play, then builds its loop and plays it smoothly from memory.
- Film damage: Frame slips. The print jumping a frame is now its own switch, and it starts off. Projects that already had slips keep them.
Fixed
- Effect previews no longer slow the app down. The preview renders only the layer you're tuning over a still copy of the scene, keeps its loop in memory, and leaves most of the machine to the rest of the app.
- Tuning a card in the middle of a stack is faster, on the stage too: the cards beneath it are computed once instead of on every change.
Installing
macOS
AtomCut is not yet notarized, so on first launch Gatekeeper will say the app
"is damaged and can't be opened" or "cannot be opened because the developer
cannot be verified." This is expected for unsigned builds. After dragging
AtomCut into Applications, clear the quarantine flag once:
xattr -cr /Applications/AtomCut.appThen open it normally. (Alternatively: right-click the app → Open → Open.)
Windows
SmartScreen may warn on first run. Choose More info → Run anyway.
Linux
- AppImage:
chmod +x AtomCut-*.AppImage && ./AtomCut-*.AppImage - Debian/Ubuntu:
sudo dpkg -i AtomCut-*.deb
Once installed, AtomCut keeps itself up to date automatically — new versions are
offered in-app and install on relaunch.
