Autodesk SketchBook

· We removed the splash screen that appeared upon startup, so there is no longer a need or even an option for logging in.
· NOTE: If you are not a SketchBook Pro (enterprise) user and created an Autodesk Account, you may want to delete it. See the article Delete Your Autodesk Account for instructions for how to do this.

• Bug fixes

We are excited to announce that the fully featured version of SketchBook is now FREE for everyone!

• The brush lag you may have experienced with 8.5 has been corrected.
• When you reset the Color Palette, the Color Editor won't disappear.
• If you couldn't access the Color Editor from the toolbar, this issue has been resolved.
• The canvas now fits the screen, instead of displaying only the top left corner, when a new fixed-sized canvas is set and created.

Bug fixes and improvements.

Bug fixes.

For MacBook Pro users, we've added quick access icons and sliders to the Touch Bar for undoing/redoing and changing brush/color attributes.

• We added Stroke Stabilizer. Apply different amounts of smoothness to your initial stroke, while preserving sharp corners. Now, you can draw perfect circles, ellipses, and straight lines freehand!
• Take brush stroke customization further. We added a new level of texture control to create brushes with more richness and depth. Try the new Signature Ink, Pencil Pal, Soft Pastel, Watercolor, Dusty Airbrush brushes and see how it’s done. The possibilities are endless.
• Speaking of brushes, we saw some of you noticed that we give away a new free brush set every Monday. We're glad you like them! Now, subscribers have the SketchBook Extras panel, which makes it even easier to bring content into SketchBook. Simply click on the ones you want to load them directly into your SketchBook.

Good news, keyboard-hotkey lovers! SketchBook finally includes the ability to customize hotkeys.
Even more, a bunch of commands are now available to assign hotkeys to enhance your productivity.

New features and improvements:
· Hotkeys
· Fixed the issue with the content not appearing in the canvas, after toggling layer group visibility off/on

Seeing is believing! So, from now on, you can experience all Pro features in a 7 day free trial.

Something new, something smart, and something you asked for. That’s the theme of this update. Here is what we’ve added:
• Pro member exclusive: Introducing Radial Symmetry, with up to 16 sectors of symmetry. The X and Y axis have had all the fun for too long, so we brought circles into the mix. Use Radial Symmetry to create things like mandalas, complex patterns, wheels, and whatever else you can dream up.
• Brush icon customization: In the past we’ve given you a fixed number of icons to pick from when you add them to your toolset. That doesn’t make sense. We now allow you to create a custom icon to go along with your custom brushes. Sanity has been restored.
• Color Editor: The last update came with a newly designed Color Editor, and you didn’t like it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained is what we say, but when we make something you don’t like, we listen. The Color Editor you love is back in the app. Thanks for all of your feedback!
• Color Picker: Want to pick a color from outside of SketchBook to use in a sketch? Now, you can!
• The magnifying glass is now available when in the Color Picker. Mouse over the area you want, then tap-hold your left mouse button.
• The anti-aliasing issue for brushes smaller than 1.0 was fixed.
• We've changed the texture capture mode cursor. Also, now you can see if you're in still in this mode.

• Bug fixing.
