VectorScribe Studio
VectorScribe Studio features all tools found in VectorScribe Designer and adds to this by delivering "game changing" Dynamic vector artwork tools.
Dynamic Shapes
Dynamic shapes are what so many Adobe Illustrator users have cried out for for years. With VectorScribe Studio, they have been implemented... beautifully!
Drag out a dynamic shape and continue to edit it as a shape - not merely a collection of point on a path. Add sides/points; introduce rounded corners to one or all corners; slice any shape; change the shape type, and more, dynamically.
Astute Graphics' unique "dynamic" implementation offers the best of the live nature of Effects plus the seamless workflow of standard shape types.
Dynamic Corners
Need to add a rounded corner to one or more points on a path? Need the result to be accurate, flexible and dynamic? Then Dynamic Corners is the tool for you!
Incorporating the same unique "dynamic" implementation as the Dynamic Shapes tool, dynamic corners can be dragged out on any path corner point, including lines and curves.
To quote Von Glitschka: "the dynamic corners tool is just frosting on the vector cake". Enough said!
