2.5.2 — Always On, Even Mid-Swipe
- Swiping from a full-screen app back to your desktop now slides Glyphscape in with the desktop, instead of showing your macOS wallpaper until the swipe finishes.
Always Something To Come Back To.
Glyphscape Release Notes
2.5.1 — A Studio Preview That Keeps Up
- After you close and reopen the studio, the preview shows every change right away: scenes, glyphs, profiles, and colors.
2.5.0 — Six New Cities, Redrawn Figures
- Sakura Alley, Crimson Rain, Snow Village, Sunset Hills, Desert Moon, and Aurora Harbor join the Cities, each with its own motion.
- Figures are now full-frame pop-art portraits: Echo Bust, Chrome Study, and Signal Mask are redrawn, and Prism Drip, Color Facet, and Split Spectrum are new.
- 40 scenes in all. The five Free scenes stay the same.
2.4.2 — Familiar Menus, Clearer Controls
- Glyphscape, Edit, Window, and Help menus appear while the studio or license window is open, so Command-V pastes your license key.
- The studio groups its controls into Colors, Texture, Motion, and Framing, and its icon buttons explain themselves on hover.
- A Full license works on up to 3 Macs, and the license window shows how many your key has used.
2.4.1 — A Focused Collection
- 31 scenes across Flow, Spectral, Cities, and Figures, including the five additions from 2.4.
- Interference replaces Ripple in the five Free scenes.
- Contours, Ripple, Cells, Caustic, Undertow, Strata, Lagoon, Satin, Aperture, and Penumbra are retired. Ripple remains available as an image animation.
2.4 — Five New Scenes
