Win/Mac: Expression 3 Released
Posted on Wednesday, December 11
Creature House Expression continues to re-define vector graphics and offer new unique creative power to all digital artists. Expression 2 was the first vector based drawing application to introduce the real time soft-edge feature, still unsurpassed in flexibility and efficiency. Expression 3 further extends this feature to allow arbitrary fringe textures to be applied around any fill to create rich and organic blotting effects or wild splatters, even with variable width.

What's New in Expression 3
  • Dynamic erasing using arbitrary graphic objects with the unique Eraser mode
  • Real-time Reflection Mapped fill
  • User definable fringe textures for organic blotting effects and fuzzy fills or clippers
  • Powerful Effect lines for comics and dramatic line patterns
  • Anchored and repeatable bitmap strokes for realistic pencil or watercolor effects
  • Image fill for handy collage
  • Transform Fill tool for intuitive and convenient repositioning of patterns, gradients or image fill
  • Independent control of width and transparency variability
  • Frozen layers for overcoming any complexity barriers
  • Minimal redraw for the fastest possible interactive drawing speed
  • Unicode text support for multilingual text and symbols
  • 3-in-1 Twirl Star tool for anything from the widest stars to regular polygons
  • Many improved tools: rounded rectangle, numerical control, enhanced text tool with baseline-shift and tracking.
  • Native support of Photoshop PSD and PNG format image import/export
  • Convenient one click locking and unlocking of object(s).
  • User definable keyboard shortcuts
  • Cling-on palettes for easy management of floating palettes on the Mac
  • Many new options to fine tune the behavior to suit your needs
