Changelog
What changed in each version of Elvoko for macOS.
v0.4.1
PSD editing
- new

- new
Saving writes the PSD back to your project, and it still opens in Photoshop.
- new
New PSD File starts a blank one; drag pictures from the canvas into it.

v0.4.0
A new canvas
- new
The canvas is now Elvoko’s own: faster and smoother, used just as before. Your projects open as they are.

Put several web pages away at the bottom and pick each up where you left it.
- new
Send a website card to Elvoko and it reads the page itself.

- improved
The Start here project has a new set of pictures.
- fixed
New pictures no longer land on top of each other, and they appear in the part of the canvas you can see — never under the browser or the Elvoko column.
- fixed

- fixed
The in-app update keeps going through a slow or dropped connection.
- fixed

- new
v0.3.5

- new
Drag PDFs, Photoshop and Illustrator files, Word and PowerPoint documents onto the canvas. Files from a folder you added stay linked: rename or move them in the Finder and the card follows.
