My two-year-old project gets update*
PhotoFlow is originally designed to be a photo editor, but the focus has shifted into bringing a high quality inking experience. This does not mean to make it a drawing app, but more of a fluent note taking/cheatsheet making app, or just a scratchpad for ideas.
- Mica Background: If your canvas is transparent, it shows the Mica behind. Not a black and white grid that kills your eyes in dark mode.
- Easy to use Inking Toolbar. I don't like the fact that you need so many separate pens. I mean... normally we don't really need to change the pen size. Normally, what makes a drawing good is colors. So we have shortcuts to change colors as different buttons instead. Also designed with touch & pen users without keyboard in mind: Who would want to go to Edit -> Undo and Edit -> Redo every time they need to undo. Just click the button on the toolbar. Easy!
- Selections are implemented. You can move the things you select to other place as well as copy/paste or duplicating. This saves time since we don't need to delete and write it again and again.
- PhotoFlow uses the layer system and toolbar system and a user interface
that is totally not inspired by Photoshop™️Resizing, Moving, Rotating, Scaling layers, etc. are supported. Copy & Paste, etc.- You can draw things and erasing things on one layer and it won't affect another layer.
- You can paste images into the app.
- You can optionally add shapes but the UI is not that good yet.
- Save and load as gpe (saves and loads all layers)
- Export as PNG
- Common Shortcuts are implemented: Undo (Ctrl + Z), Redo (Ctrl + Y or Ctrl + Shift + Z), Duplicate (Ctrl + D), Cut (Ctrl + X), Copy (Ctrl + C), Paste (Ctrl + V)
Experimental:
- Rotating canvas, some mouse interaction may not work as expected yet
*Not all updates are pushed on GitHub and store version yet. If there are a lot of demands, I will push changes onto GitHub and I will update a new version on Microsoft Store
