Major Changes In SketchBlock 1.9


Move Tool
A new tool which allows moving of layers either by dragging with 
the mouse or by enter the position into the settings gadgets.

Extension to the Paint Tool 
The Paint tool now supports random jitter of the parameters, 
position, pressure, and scaling, further the amount of jitter 
can be pressure sensitive. This enables a wide range of effects 
from slight perturbations to to scattering effects.

Much more advance Resize Image Script
The resize image script, called from the Image menu by default,
offers a greate rangeof options, allowing cropping scaleing, 
discarding of layer no longer inside the canvas etc.

Prefs Editor Window
The new prefs editor allows easy creation of custom keyboard 
shortcuts and menu items, as well as setting preferences 
relating to tools windows etc.

****Requires ProAction 1.5****
