A new update with fixes and improvements has now been released. A new feature addition is support for stroke dash patterns to make lines more interesting. This allows you to define a pattern of dashes and gaps and also (not shown below) setting an offset to the dash pattern. This offset can also be changed in other nodes like the Apply function or Randomize nodes.
Another new addition is input nodes for value list parameters (like the stroke dash pattern) that allows you to make such value lists based on a list of editable value parameters. This makes it easier to edit the individual values, but also enables more complex setups where these individual values could be connected to other parameters or generated with other input nodes.
Changes and improvements
– Added support for dashed lines, the Set stroke node can now set line dash pattern and dash offset on elements.
– Added new List from values and List from texts input nodes, can be used to generate list parameters based on individual editable value or text parameters.
– Apply function, Randomize and other group nodes can now change stroke dash pattern offsets.
– Parse stroke line caps, joints and stroke dash when importing svgs paths.
– After downloading a new update you’re now offered to quit the running version to install the update.
– Added a note in the version label showing if it’s running in compatibility mode to support running on older hardware.
– Added some better error logging in case of network issues during update checks or license unlock.
Bug fixes
– Fix layer list header buttons not working (group, ungroup, duplicate and instance), broken in a previous update.
– Fixed Color from list node to allow ten different colors in the list as intended instead of just nine.
– Fixed layer pivot offset presets not being applied if the layer had not offset, scale or rotation.
– Fixed svg importer not parsing style data inherited from the root svg tag.
