# Comic Life 4 for Comic Life 1, 2 and 3 Users

Comic Life 4 has been redesigned to bring the user interface up to modern macOS standards. Some things have moved into the main window.

## Resizing Panels

By popular request panels now resize their contents allowing easy adjustment on the page. To regain the old resizing behavior hold down the [Option](Mac) or [Alt](Win) key while resizing a panel.

## Moving Balloons

The special drag handle for moving balloon assemblies has been removed. To move an entire balloon assembly simply drag the primary bubble (the bubble with the tail) which is typically the only bubble in a balloon assembly.

## Warping Lettering

The special warping behavior of lettering has been removed. Lettering now behaves like other elements on the page. The first click on a Lettering element selects it and presents the usual selection handles. A second click on the element reveals the warping handles.

## Details Tab

The details tab has been removed from the main window. The functionality in that area has been moved to an Inspector Panel, which is accessible from the toolbar bar or the View menu (View > Show Inspector). Duplicate controls for commonly used Style features such as fill, font and stroke settings are presented on a Format Bar below the toolbar.

## Page Overview

The Page Overview is still available, but it is hidden by default because the new editing area provides access to all the pages in the comic simply by scrolling. To reveal the Page Overview select View > Show Pages and Styles from the menu.
