Comic Life Magiq 1.0.2.1 update released
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.

King Crimson Comics!
Comic Life is great for sharing those funny little moments from school, in the office, or while on worldwide progressive-rock-legends tours.

Enjoy the King Crimson Comics here and here.

tmule This is very frustrating. I downloaded the demo of the regular comic life because that is what I had on my old Mac before I got a new MacBook Pro.



I began my work project and decided a couple weeks later to upgrade to Magiq instead. That is when I realized I could not open my old comic.



Now my Comic Life demo is over so I get a watermark on my project and can not export the project again or turn it into a website as originally planned without buying regular Comic Life on top of my Magiq purchase.



While I love the program this has been extremely frustrating and now I am left with the choice of dropping more money or completely re-doing a project (without pay.)

Hans-Joachim Thank you again. The template works now.



For the style:



The gradient looks different. In Comic Life there is a white wedge (I hope I used the right english term) at the upper right corner. I don't mean the white frame.



This wedge is missing in Comic Life Magiq.



Best regards

Kramy Sorry - here are the correct instructions (now amended above):



Just download, then unzip the file, and move it too: (User account)~/Library/Application Support/plasq/Comic Life Magiq/Templates



Template Page 2 is not really the same as the metal style but close enough for me.



I tried to make it the same as possible - I must be missing something, what in particular is different?



Thanks!



Yes, we hope to release a German update in the future months. It will be free. Thanks again.
Hans-Joachim Thank you!



But there is a problem. When I open the file, I can see the Template pages on the right. But when I save the templates wit "Save as template" somehow the template pages vanish. I can not see them any more. I tried it with several file names. I selected this new template from the start menue of Magiq and I used New from Template. The template pages keep empty.



But since I can use the file I downloaded it is fine for me. Ah, before I forget: Template Page 2 is not really the same as the metal style but close enough for me. Thank you for your help.



Release Magiq in a German version and I am happy However, I just purchased the program.



Best regards

Kramy Hello again Hans-Joachim,



It seems we forgot to add the background styles into the Deluxe template.



But have no fear - here they are!



Just download, then unzip the file, and move it too: (User account)~/Library/Application Support/plasq/Comic Life Magiq/Templates



Then you will find this and all the styles under File > New From Template...



The "metal style" one is the second choice under "Template Pages".



Let me know how you go!
