1.2
August 1, 2026
Version 1.2 Added : Draw / Zoom modes — turn off pinch-to-zoom so you can draw safely Layer lock — lock a layer with a padlock; status tip when drawing on a locked layer Swipe actions on layers — lock (leading) and delete (trailing) Layer rename, reorder (drag), and a clearer arrange/drag handle Layer opacity slider (0–100%) for the active layer Layer visibility — eye icon per layer to show/hide (also via context menu) Expanded brush library — Pen, Pencil, Marker, Crayon, Charcoal, Ink, Watercolor, Airbrush, Glitter, Smudge Pressure on pen and other brushes (Apple Pencil) Brush blend modes in the brush library, plus more layer blend modes Real smudge on the brush layer PNG Reset for the canvas / paint session Hide numbers — hide region numbers while keeping your painting visible Eraser size adjustable on hover/selection Gallery painted thumbnails — previews show the painted canvas, not only the blank template Help sheet updated for tools, actions, and layers; larger via page presentation Changed : Strokes stay raw — no auto-rounding/smoothing after lift Layer rows show opacity% · blend on one line (removed the “N” label) Visibility and lock are separate controls (no nested buttons) Swipe delete/lock aligned with the layer row (icon-only actions) Studio chrome and layers panel further refined (Procreate-style) Fixed : Second stroke was not always saved Eraser produced black instead of clearing Undo / delete could jump or flip the drawing Pinch-to-zoom toggle: zoom failed, or drawing continued while zooming Drawing felt locked to a numbered region — free drawing anywhere on the layer Strokes sometimes disappeared mid-stroke (touch CANCELLED) — commit-on-cancel and more stable canvas updates Locked layer no longer silently auto-unlocks on open Layer visibility toggle was unreliable (nested buttons) Trash/lock swipe actions sat too high relative to the row
