Beta of RealWorld Cursor Editor 2009.1 is here

Friday, July 24th, 2009

Beta, final, beta, final, beta. It is getting boring. Now is beta time.

What to expect

Version 2009.1 will be the third version of the RealWorld Cursor Editor and there are some previously unseen features. Here are the major ones:

  • Layers, selections, drawing tools, image filters - they work just like in Paint.COM.
  • .cur vs .ani - the editor will look the same no matter what kind of cursor you are working with. Conversion between .cur, .ani and the new .rcu (cursor with layers) is as simple as using the “Save as…” command.
  • 3D tools removed - since too few people were using them, they will not be present in the cursor editor anymore. Another solution for cursor authors wishing to use 3D models will be available later.
  • Built-in tutorials removed - there will be some more tutorial videos instead.
  • Numerous smaller updates from other RealWorld applications like translations, thumbnails for recent files, color swatches panel, etc.
