WHAT’S NEW

In the latest versions.

Animation 1.4.1 · Longer undo, files on the Desktop

⌘Z now goes back as far as you need (up to 200 steps), and each document keeps its own steps — switch to another document and back and they are still there. ⌘Z in the panel never takes away a step of your own work in Illustrator. Save, Save as…, Open, Import and every export start on your Desktop. Ilo Raw 1.0.6: Export PNG and Open a photo start on the Desktop too.

All four tools · 5-day free trial

Install any tool, open it in Illustrator and press Start the free trial: everything works for 5 days, no card and no key. The panel shows how many days are left and a Buy now button the whole time; when the trial ends it asks you to buy a license (your work stays). One trial per computer. Ilo Animation 1.4 · Ilo Raw 1.0.5 · Ilo Retouch 1.0.5 · Ilo Color Tools 1.4.4.

All four tools · Illustrator comes first

The ilo panels no longer do anything in the background. Nothing runs while you work in Illustrator, while a panel is hidden, collapsed or minimised, or when Illustrator starts — a panel looks at your document only when you work in it. Ilo Animation reads the document without ever opening a document of its own, and Ilo Raw and Ilo Retouch no longer watch the selection from the background. Ilo Animation 1.3.5 · Ilo Raw 1.0.4 · Ilo Retouch 1.0.4 · Ilo Color Tools 1.4.3.

All four tools · Close and Uninstall

Every panel has Close, which stops it completely, and Uninstall…, which removes it from your computer (and can free the computer’s activation). A panel also tells you when an older copy of it is still installed, and shows you where.

Animation 1.3.4 · Every document on its own canvas

A new document starts clean (no rows, background or size from the last one) and each document gets back only its own animation. Background and canvas size go straight into Illustrator, also in a new, empty document, and the canvas size now changes the artboard itself. Text and shapes always land on the same canvas. Open lets you pick an .ilo file again.

Animation 1.3.4 · Type, zoom and a steadier panel

The font list shows each name on the left with a sample on the right, a live preview, and letter and line spacing like Illustrator's. ⌘+ ⌘− ⌘0 zoom the stage. Drag a row's bar to move that element's animation in time. Clicking never selects everything by itself any more, and when Illustrator squeezes the panel the stage and the timeline stay in view.

Animation 1.3.3 · Selecting and moving

Select all, then drag any block: every selected row moves through time together, and on the stage every selected element moves with the one you drag. Click one element, row or block to keep only it; click an empty spot or press Esc to let go.

Animation 1.3.3 · Open, Save and the library window

Open and Save sit next to Export, with Save as… under the arrow. The big library is a window of its own: move it, resize it from any edge, set the card size, close it with ✕, and everything you add flashes ✓ Added.

Animation 1.3 · On the stage

A pasteboard around the canvas: what moves off it stays visible and can be dragged back. Resize with eight handles, as in Illustrator. Change any element's colours from the inspector. Zoom about the mouse, scroll to pan.

Animation 1.2 · Magic and 40,431 shapes

One click animates the whole design, offline, with five moods and three paces. Characters, real 3D, nature, objects, UI elements and celebration shapes, in six styles and twelve palettes.
