Short: Replacement toolbox for Photogenics V2 Author: robert.wilson@bigfoot.com (Robert Wilson) Uploader: robert wilson bigfoot com (Robert Wilson) Type: gfx/edit Architecture: m68k-amigaos --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Introduction ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Do you think that the Toolbox in Photogenics looks crap? I do (sorry Paul) and for a long time I put up with it. Eventually I got so fed up with it that I decided to create my own replacement. I created this in Sept 96, but at that time I did not have access to the Internet. Anyway, now and do have and here you have it! Requirements ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Photogenics V2 running in a High Resolution screen mode. Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1) Rename 'tools.hi' in 'Photogenics:Data/' to 'tools.hi_old' or similar. 2) Copy my replacement 'tools.hi' into 'Photogenics:Data/'. Usage ~~~~~ Start PGS and select a High Resolution screen mode. Ideally you will be using a 24Bit CyberGFX screen, but if like me you've only got an A1200 with no Zorro slots (come on Phase 5 - sort it out!) you will have to settle for less. I alway run PGS in PAL:Hires at 724x283 (Text Size) and the toolbox just fits on the screen. Select 'Large Toolbar' from the preferences menu. Save the changes, quit and then run PGS again. Limitations ~~~~~~~~~~~ I don't think that it will work with any pre-2 version of PGS? However I don't think it would take that much of a modification to do so. If you can't do this yourself, then mail me (robert.wilson@bigfoot.com) and I'll install V1.2a again and give it a go for you. PGS Information ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As you probably know already Almathera are no longer! When I first heard this I was saddened to think that the development of PGS would end. With any luck this will not be so... Things are looking very promising thanks to the original author of version 1 - Paul Nolan. He is currently working on a new version called 'Photogenics X'. Visit Paul's homepage for more info on this project and to read how he was treated by Almathera... Paul Nolan - http://www.users.dircon.co.uk/~pnolan/
