JournalThe catalogue

The suite’s changelog, kept as a catalogue. Numbers by the Archivist, notes by the Poet. The full record ships inside the app.

  1. No. 0.35July 2026

    Deep color

    Layers keep a 16 bit copy of themselves, and every adjustment computes in floating point before touching the screen once. Stack as many as you like; the gradients stay smooth.

  2. No. 0.34July 2026

    Smart Fill

    Select what should vanish and Atelier repaints the space from its surroundings. A real inpainting model, run entirely on your machine; nothing you fill ever leaves it.

  3. No. 0.33July 2026

    Warp Studio

    Push, bloat, pinch, twirl and smooth your pixels through a live mesh. Every stroke renders from a clean snapshot, so the paint never degrades while you shape it.

  4. No. 0.32July 2026

    Filters leave the main thread

    Adjustments now crunch on every core your machine has, and the result is proven identical to the old path, byte for byte, on every build.

  5. No. 0.31July 2026

    Atelier moves to the GPU

    A tiled WebGL2 engine composites the document in 256 pixel tiles, pixel-matched against the old one and several times faster. Painting only redraws what your brush touches.

  6. No. 0.30July 2026

    Draft 1.0, and the doors open

    The drafting table is finished. The private beta begins: one key unlocks the suite on first launch, and your files stay plain SVG and .atl either way.

  7. No. 0.29July 2026

    The Shape Builder

    Drag one stroke across overlapping shapes and they merge into one. Hold alt and the stroke carves instead. One gesture, one undo step.

  8. No. 0.28July 2026

    Live effects and swatches

    Shadow, glow and blur that stay editable forever, written into the file as real SVG filters.

  9. No. 0.27July 2026

    Stroke options and live corners

    Caps and joins on every stroke, and rectangle radii that stay adjustable long after the rectangle is drawn.

  10. No. 0.26July 2026

    Text with depth

    Alignment, leading, tracking, bold and italic. And an eyedropper that lifts a whole look from anything it touches.

  11. No. 0.25July 2026

    Images on the drafting table

    Place photographs beside vectors. They ride the same file and come back where you left them.

  12. No. 0.24July 2026

    Rulers, guides and snapping

    The drafting table learns to measure. Smart guides catch edges and centers as you move.

  13. No. 0.22July 2026

    The file became the format

    Every group survives the round trip. A Draft document is an SVG file, not an export of one.

  14. No. 0.17July 2026

    Live symbols

    Edit the master and every placed copy follows. Symbols nest, and a symbol can never contain itself.

  15. No. 0.15July 2026

    Booleans that keep their curves

    Unite, subtract, intersect and exclude, with the bezier curvature preserved instead of flattened.

  16. No. 0.13July 2026

    Undo stopped counting

    Atelier's history became effectively unlimited. Mistakes became free.

  17. No. 0.7July 2026

    The vector room opens

    Draft joins the house: pen, nodes, booleans on the way, and SVG as its native tongue from day one.

Selected entries. Every release since the first is recorded in the Foyer’s What’s-new card.
