Opacity 1.2 update targets iPhone graphics
Like Thought has published a v1.2 update to Opacity, its graphics creation utility. The software is specifically intended to design art for program development, and combines pixel and vector editors with Photoshop-like tools such as filters, layers and transforms. Users can also insert variable items, and tap into resources such as factories and templates.
The v1.2 update concentrates on the iPhone, providing four new preview types including Icon and App Store views. Eight iPhone-specific templates have also been supplied, which incorporate elements such as icons, buttons and toolbar images. Opacity costs $90 and runs only on Mac OS X 10.5.5 or later, but is a Universal Binary and is also available in a scaled-back Express version for $40.
