We are delighted to offer a beta of our upcoming Comic Life Magiq 1.0.3 update.
It has numerous stability and significant performance improvements over 1.0.2.1 - so we would love previous users to download and let us know if you come across any issues.
A free update for Comic Life Magiq is available for all users.
Identical to 1.0.2c in all but version number, which has been changed to ensure 1.0.2 users are made aware of the 1.0.2c update via the menu: Comic Life Magiq > Check for Updates...
This 1.0.2.1 update is recommended for all 1.0.2 users and fixes a serious saving issue introduced in 1.0.2 that caused images to be left out of the document.
If you're already running 1.0.2c (v10939) you can "Skip This Version".
Head to the plasq downloads page to get the 1.0.2.1 update or update from within Comic Life Magiq.

Hi Mrfugu,
My theory is that the drag selection selected more than just the panel (it selected the background image too) - which renders the resize handles in operative (they then just indicate the selected items) dragging them will move all the selected items. This probably shouldn't happen - I'll look at fixing the drag select so it doesn't also select the background image.
Best,
Robert.

Robert,
It has only happened one time, but I've not put another long session into ComicLife since then, I'll double check the next time I'm composing.
What exactly was happening:
I selected a panel (i called it a frame in my last post) with a picture in it. (a drag across the corner of the panel starting outside , and via a click in the panel to select it). This highlighted the panel's 'Resize Points'. I initiated a click-hold with the intention of resizing a small amount by clicking within one of the green 'Resize Points'.
Immediately upon mouse down the whole panel, but not the image inside, moved a pixel down and to the right, in this case revealing the (sharp white) border of the image inside the panel. I was then able to resize the panel, in the same click-hold, or let go and click-hold the exact same way and it behaved normally, resizing the panel without moving it.
fwiw, I have a 1.25mdd, 2gb, 10.3.9, current on all updates, and running quite smoothy in all respects. ComicLife v1.01
The ComicLife file this happened within is about 6mb with 2 pages and ~20 panels.
hope this helps,
mrfugu

Hi Mrfugu,
it sounds like it started to drag the whole thing for a bit and then switched to resizing mode. The frame your dragging is on a panel?
Does it always happen or just sometimes?
Resizing has been well behaved here.
Best,
Robert.

I have consistent crashes using "Quick comic…" The screen will draw but any attempt to do anything causes a crash. Here's the first lines of the crash report:
Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000020
