ZeusDraw Publisher Description
ZeusDraw is a drawing program with a fluid, graceful interface. It has a different, more intuitive approach to paths (Bezier curves) and great brushes. Quartz and Cocoa let ZeusDraw show you what you are doing, as you do it. When you move or rotate an object, you see the object move or rotate, not its bounding box. When you draw with a brush, you see a close approximation to the final brush stroke as you draw, not a dotted line that is filled in later.

Features:

Both vector brushes and textured, pixel-based brushes that remain objects that can be selected, edited (path and attributes), moved, scaled and rotated.
Easy to use path tools. Points are entered in order and can be edited at any time while the path is being created. When editing, all points are immediately editable - there is no confusing secondary selection tool.
Gradients can be edited live, in-place on the objects they fill.
Multi-Copy tool to place multiple copies along a line, an arc, a circle or a path.
No text boxes. ZeusDraw has in-place editing of text, even if it has been scaled sheared or rotated.
Construction and layout aids: Snap to Grid, Snap to Path, Snap to Point, Snap to Angle and automatic alignment guides.
By gesture or by the numbers. ZeusDraw allows precise setting of the size and position of objects.
Actual size viewing. With ZeusDraw 100% means 100%.
No size limits. If you're making a banner or a billboard, ZeusDraw will work for you.
E-mail artwork from within the program.
Color Picker. ZeusDraw adds a pane to the Color Picker to allow you to choose from a grid of closely related colors.

OS: PPC/Intel
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later.
Whats new:
Version 1.2:


Editable PDF and PostScript - ZeusDraw 1.2 can convert most imported PDF, PS and EPS files into ZeusDraw objects. These objects can then be edited and modified like objects created directly in ZeusDraw. (PDF conversion requires 10.4 or later.)


Improved Print dialog - ZeusDraw's printing features are now more easily accessible.The new dialog also adds the ability to print only the selection and to scale the entire design or a selection so that it just fits the paper size.


German language localization


Version 1.1:


Blend Modes - ZeusDraw now supports Blend Modes.


Improved Gradient Tool - You can now drag and drop colors directly to the gradient when editing gradients in place with the Gradient Tool.


Choice of Mail Programs - You can now use Eudora, MS Entourage, or the AOL mail application, as well as the Apple Mail program, to email artwork from within ZeusDraw.


Improved Export Sheets - When exporting or e-mailing you can now choose to export the selection, the page bounds, all the artwork or an area. When exporting the selection or all the artwork you can add a margin around them. The sheets now remember the last directory used.


Scroll Wheel Support - The scroll wheel scrolls your drawing vertically. Shift + scroll wheel scrolls horizontally.


Window Size - You can now set the initial window size for new drawings in the Preferences. Saved documents remember their window size.


Check for Update - ZeusDraw now uses Sparkle to check for updates. If a new update is available it will show you the release notes and, if you choose, install the update for you.


About Box - The About box now shows the version number and your registration number.
