I highly enjoyed using RealWorld Cursor Editor for its richness of features, functionality and ease of use, but now i'm running an operating system that's not supported by your product. Please, consider making your applications available to other systems or provide equivalents. I really miss your work.

Kind regards,
Ray Eden

I am glad you liked the app. But I am afraid porting the application to Linux or Mac would mean rewriting a large part of it.

The latest version added support for the older Windows 2000, but that is probably not what you need.

Just to let you know that your software is used in the English primary and secondary education, for which I hope you receive a donation. Vlasta, I admire your work. A question from one of my students - I wonder if you have a localised version for the Serbian market or if there is one currently being prepared?
Otherwise, user interface is good and intuitive, help files are adequate and forums - inspiring.
Keep up the good work!

It is good to hear that the tool is being used. Regarding the localization, it is up to the community to translate the user interface. Cursor Editor and Paint.COM can already be localized, the other tools will support the languages in next versions.

I am thinking about better ways to help people position the drawn objects. When I get to it, I want at least a grid with configurable size. I am not sure about more complex approaches, but I am open to easy to make, easy to use, but powerful ideas ;-).

How about different styles of grids? Hexagontal, triangular? That'd be a unique feature no other editor has. (That i've seen.)

We could use an upgraded ellipse tool ,as well. Give ellipses more adjustment points so that we can form egg shapes in addition to the current perfect ellipses.

Found a bug I think.
Here's what happens.

I create a layered icon.
I save it.
I go and alter the layers to create a new icon.
I "save as" something else.
The new icon is fine.
The old icon becomes "flattened" together. Saved as a ".ric" file, but only has one layer in it. All the others- meshed together.

Vlasta

If you save as .ico and then close and re-open the .ico and save as .ric, the layers will be gone. .ico only allows 1 layer per image.

If you save as .ico and then save as .ric without closing the file, the layers should be there.

BTW you use the Curve tool with the "Closed" option to draw egg-like shapes. It is not ideal, but usable.

JDDellGuy

No,

I create a layered icon.
I save it as a .ric file.
Without closing the icon editor, I alter the layers to create a variation of the first icon.
I "save as" another .ric file.
Now the first one is flattened into one layer even though I saved it as a .ric file.

I can continue to do this- just altering the layers as I create the different icons, and "saving as" them all as .ric files. However, only the last one that I save before exiting the program, remains layered properly.

Hm... maybe this has happened: There are two boxes in the save dialog, first controls the extension and the second the actual file format used when saving. Under normal circumstances, if you switch the one controlling the extension, the format is switched too. But if the extension does not match, the format is not switched. Maybe the file was saved with .ric extension, but in .ico format.

Why is rw icon editor an evolution version :-( ?

Your Realworld Paint program has an intuitive interface and shows a lot of potential, but has some serious shortcomings. Could you tell me if I'm doing something wrong?

o Can't reedit text after using another tool
o Can't move imported/pasted layers across the full background (imported layer moves as tiles within its bounding rectangle)
o Can't add to or subtract from mask/selection

Believe me, if those issues were resolved, RWP would be a top choice among image editors.

Thanks for feedback.

  1. It is true that you cannot easily re-edit text (or any other shape, it is a raster editor after all). For now, it is recommended to place text in a separate layer and clean it before changing it.
  2. Run the Normalize layer command from Layer menu after importing to make all layers the same size. Then you can move them.
  3. You can, press and hold SHIFT, CTRL, or both of them while using one of the selection tools to add, negate or subtract selection -> check out the image selection tutorial.

RwCursor is amazing. To include a way to draw, make layers and most of the functionality that drawing programs have is an awesome idea. And it was equally brilliant to host a website that lets users share, rate, get support, and share ideas about artworks and tricks!
