List of NEW TLC v5.0 features.


Faster rendering:
The engine has been enhanced. Logos now render quicker.

Saving custom templates:
You can now save your own logo templates. Choose "Save Template" from the FILE menu. This will save a logo library called "My Templates" containing your logo projects!

Once you have a full set of templates, you can rename this folder to something like "My Sports Logos" or "My Beauty Supply logos". When you next run TLC, you can start saving another group of templates!

Drag and Drop Element Setter:
You can now choose a logo element from the "element setter" (the top window that appears over the Canvas). Simply pull down an Element library, then drag and drop an element onto the Canvas!

New text and Object creation control
To create new text and images in v5.0 - simply choose the appropriate button from the "element setter" (the top window that appears above the canvas)

Number of images visible in the 'element setter' (the top window pain) is now 6.
Strange window re-layering has been fixed.

The Element setter no longer automatically switches context based on the selected element. Instead, tabs allow you to select Images or Text
Removed the confusing "Add this text" versus "Use this text" buttons from the text part of the element setter, replacing with only "Use this text". Clicking "Use this text" with a text element selected replaces the text of that element. Clicking "Use this text" with an image or nothing selected adds the text to the canvas.

New start up screen

Start up screen now appears with a welcome message to important tutorials and web site information.


New logo sets available online
Each logo set has been updated. I've also added a few new new logo editions.
The Real Estate Edition, The Sports Pak and The Spiritual Edition! 50 logos in each set!

 

Bug fixes from previous versions:

Double clicking a saved ".tlc" document now correctly launches The Logo Creator.

Windows Font menu scrolling fixed.
(some Windows XP machines were having trouble scrolling the fonts list).

Mac OSX buttons fixed.
(some Macintosh machines running Tiger were having trouble seeing the text on the buttons).

Undo for the new Text Effects
You can now - correctly - undo a text effect.

Object selection highlight no longer stays on when object released with cursor off the canvas.

Rotated text and circle effects now draw much faster

Delete Key
Don't want a logo element? Hit the delete key :)
This now works correctly.

Mac users:
The buttons now display correctly (previous versions portrayed light text on light blue buttons.

Windows users:
The font list on some Windows computers wasn't allowing you to scroll down the 'built in fonts' list. Now, it does.
