Real-DRAW Pro 4.0

Create professional web or multimedia graphics from simple images, buttons, banners to whole interactive web page and rollovers. Real-DRAW Pro happily combine vector, 2D, 3D and bitmap editing in one drawing package. It seamlessly moves from one form to another, eliminating time-consuming conversion operations and the need for multiple drawing packages. Unlike other graphics packages Real-DRAW PRO offers a fresh new approach for creating graphics. It gives users unlimited creative power with tools you can hardly find in other packages.

Real-DRAW PRO is a uniquely versatile application with no limit to the quality and style of output. You can create for example:
* Realistic 3D drawings using familiar 2D vector tools.
* Airbrush illustrations
* Web pages
* Painted art
* Photo-realistic imagery
* 3D scenes, photo clones and much more

Real-DRAW PRO combines many artistic creative methods into one application:

Vector Editing. Flexibility first! Any object you create is editable all the time. You can change shapes, group objects, move them in layers, resize, edit envelopes etc. Any object has its own changeable properties like color, texture, outline, lights, material, transparency, multiple 3D effects, bevels, shadows, motion blur and much more.

Bitmap Editing. Unlike in a normal vector editor you can actually paint directly onto any vector object using airbrushes, 3D or Artistic brushes and special Image Nozzles. You can paint on the canvas and the strokes will become another object to which you can apply effects, just as with vector objects. No other program can do this.

3D Effects. You can apply various bevels and extrude effects to any object or bitmap to create perfect three-dimensional work. You can get even closer to rendered-like image by applying an unlimited number of 3D lights to any object or by changing its material properties. For example, Real-DRAW PRO makes it very easy to create realistic metallic textures - often a big problem in standard vector drawing packages.

Web Page HTML Slicer. Use any of the amazing effects Real-Draw can offer to create a great graphics and then export it as a web page with rollovers, links and a text. The HTML Slicer is a visual tool which assist you to create web page without the suffering from creating HTML tables and working code in web editor.

Illustration Package. The combination of Real-DRAW's tools allows you to create drawings in your style - illustrations, 3D render simulations, airbrush work, you name it - you have the control.

Multimedia Graphics generator. With Real-DRAW you can design a whole scene and add fully-functional buttons (which is now easier than ever using Packages). Then you can export it directly to Multimedia Builder or generate a script in any language you want - you can create HTML, XML, Java, Java Script or even a whole web page using CSS (Cascading Style Sheets).

SVG editor. As if this isn't enough, Real-DRAW can also be used as an SVG editor (Scaleable Vector Graphics supported by all XML enabled web-browsers) with import/export support of color fills, outlines and transparencies.

Mega Render. Design small, render big! A special Mega Render export module allows you to render the design into much larger image sizes if you need them. Mega Render will not just resize the image, but it will add more texture detail as well.

Export to Adobe Photoshop. You can export the whole design into Adobe Photoshop keeping all the layers, transparency channels, shadow layers and layer names as you created them in Real-DRAW.

New in Real-DRAW PRO 4.0:
* New customizable interface (menu, toolbars, shortcuts, hide toolbars, dockable, stackable (tab) etc...).
* GIF output/input (but not in slicer yet) - GIF plugin is no longer needed.
* Folders in Texture Combo - simply add subfolders to the /Textures folder, put some image files in them and start RD. these then should appear near the top in texture combo box.
* Pressure sensitive pen now works on whole pressure range > 255.
* Color Memory - now Right Click on box will also add color, left click will recall the color.
* The size/position of multiselected/grouped objects can be edited via Dimensions panel.
* Status bar now display the size/position of multiselected/grouped objects (within mouse manipulation).
* Multiselected/grouped objects can be rotated/fliped. Limitation: temporarily multiselected (not permanently grouped) objects cannot be rotated by freehand Rotate (you can still use menu Object >> Rotate).
* Function "Smooth Node" finally makes the selected Bezier point smooth in both directions Now you can convert Rectangle to Circle/Ellipse by change its points from Sharp to Smooth and without handle editing.
* Added the possibility to change the width/height of the selected object (object/multiselection/group/package) via keyboard (like object move but with SHIFT)
* Shift + arrow key = resize for 1 pixel
* Shift + CTRL + arrow key = resize for number of pixels defined by grid
* Solved(?) the problem with shortcuts and lost focus from the main window. If the focus i set in property pane, all shortcut keys (except the below mentioned) should be sent to the main application window.
* If you wish to switch focus back to main window (for example from Layers pane) and without the need to click anywhere in workspace or by selecting an object, simply press the ESC key. This will return the focus back to the main window.
* Added realtime dimensions indicator to status bar (X,Y => W x H). From now, if you create new object or change the object's Size/Position, you will see the real-time changes of object position (left/top corner)/size in RD status bar. The same apply for the rest of mouse dragging tools, like Selection rectangle, Export Crop,...
* Freehand (Pencil) tool can now be terminated via simple right click.
* Buttons in "Special Tools" toolbar now works as switches. Pressed button = activated pane.
* Added new UI and Pane visual themes (menu View/Interface View/Pane Themes).
* Added Load/Save/Reset UI/Panel layout. From now you can save/load your own custom UI layouts.
* Added CapsLock indicator to status bar.
* Menu View/Panes (previously View/Properties) is now sorted like "Special Tools" toolbar.

[FIXES]
* !!! The RD rotate code is completely overhauled! The objects should no longer be deformed or resized!
