A Quick Bug Fix

Thanks to our kind forum members and Twitter followers, we just discovered that one annoying bug slipped into 1.6.1— undo stops working when you use your keyboard to move a layer around. Damn it, you say (I also said so)!

But not to worry—we already fixed it (in 15 minutes!), and you can get the update by simply re-downloading Pixelmator 1.6.1.

The bug fix is not a new release, but rather a new build. A build number is usually available in the app’s About Box: Pixelmator > About Pixelmator > Version 1.6.1 Nucleus (5447). Nucleus is a code name we made up for fun and the number in brackets is a build number. So the new build number is 5452. We didn’t do a full release version—let’s leave that nice 1.6.2 number for some cool stuff other than a tiny single bug fix.

Thanks again for your bug reports! And don’t stop there—continue to identify those pesky issues and we promise to fix them as soon as possible.

    So checking for updates will not work for this? Need to redownload?

    Yup. However the fix will be included in version 1.6.2.

    Oh great, I’ve experienced this problem yesterday when using the type tool and thought I’m doing something wrong! Btw I’d love to see a font face preview in the type tool option. Not directly in the drop down select, like ugly Photoshop has, but bigger maybe in the Tool Options window or as an overlay.
