Beautifully designed, easy-to-use, fast, and powerful vector graphics app for the Mac. This app is absolutely awesome, and there is a good chance you already have it right there on your Mac. Without even knowing it. We have sneaked a totally wicked but secret feature into Pixelmator 2.
We call this new app or more accurately this mode of an app Vectormator. Vectormator brings up and conveniently places all of the drawing tools and palettes on your screen. So you can create stunning shapes, illustrations, logos, and so much more, more easily than ever before.
To switch to Vectormator, simply press the Command-Shift-V keyboard shortcut, and watch the tools and palettes instantly change to Vectormator.
To switch back to your Pixelmator, press the same keyboard shortcut again. Watch that happen in our short Vectormator video or try it yourself now. This is it. Pixelmator is now a fully featured vector graphics app. Email Link. Copy Link.
Most notably: the way you handle boolean operations lacks the precision required in a vector graphics app. In all other vector drawing apps, you first create and align the shapes you want to intersect, subtract, or union, and then apply the operation. This lets you to align shapes very precisely before performing the operation. In Vectormator, you need to go set it to subtract shape mode and then draw the desired shape you want to subtract, which makes everything significantly less precise!
It would have been better if you focused your efforts on features to finally start being competitive with Photoshop, like layer styles. This post needs more positive comments. Completely unexpected feature and awesome to boot. More like this! Finally the vector editing tool is announced, we all were waiting for. Thanks a lot. I really hope you guys focus as much on Vectormator as you do on Pixelmator.
Pawel Glaz. The best thing about a new Pixelmator post is seeing the usual complaints about Pixelmator not have X feature of Photoshop. I find it funny on two counts. Not to mention the huge head start by Adobe.
Good times! Wow, great. Either way, great to see that devs like you still exist. Cool, but is there any other way to activate this? V conflicts with a global keyboard shortcut I already use. I used to have an old Pre-Appstore version of Pixelmator. This just provided the reason for me to upgrade. A comment on some other comments: The folks at this small company just gave us a gift. There was a time when I was in a long term relationship with you Adobe.
You were everything I ever wanted; and more! With a steady hand, my tutors showed me every facet of you over a five year period. You constantly revealed more about yourself, never disappointing with your seemingly endless talents.
We made some beautiful things together, you and I. But as I grew, and moved on as a person the rot started to set in. Why did you have so many personalities?
Why did I have to pick the right character from your many, many personalities to have a simple conversation with you. Achieving the great things that we once did so seamlessly became harder and more protracted? This schizophrenia became worse and worse. I would forget who I was speaking to, say the wrong thing and lose everything! Who were these weird friends you were bringing home and letting sleep on the sofa? They seemed to not have a job, and only served to clutter up the place, eating all my food and drinking all my beer!
And finally Adobe, the reason that I love you no more is really quite simple; you got fat! All the extra weight was cute at first, and I put up with it because of the extra fun it brought. They are just as fun-loving as you once were, but without the baggage.
And like it was at the start for us, they keep surprising me. I keep finding out new and exciting things about them, and I fall more and more under their spell. I can do without your messy friends and I can do without your excess weight! My fling with another has turned into something more, and they have grown into that role the more I trust them. I really hope the vector tools are developed further with every release.
It just makes sense to have both capabilities in one app. The two types editing combined in the same app is truly a match made in heaven. Great job guys! I love the direction you guys are headed. Andreas Kosmowicz. Vectormator… This is just great!!! Pixelmator is becoming one of my favorite apps. Beautiful to look at, easy to use, makes me look better than I am.
Made it easy to drop gimp and inkscape. Totally worth it. Risk free, really. Love the Automator support. Why the edges of vector shapes are pixelated? Even on vector mode? There should be icon to make shape editable, not from a context menu right click menu. Why I can not edit mask like in PS? I would like to paste mask from something I have painted.
In PM I can not do this. I cant even operate on mask like in PS. Acorn can do it. There is no such thing in PS. But how do you guys draw without being able to lock a layer? Do you just show hide all the time? Such an improvement. Great job on both the improvements to voice and program. A great start but eps is vital for us.
I have no issue paying an additional fee for this inclusion because of how much I would rely on it. Thank you guys so much for all the work you do. Neville Dastur. Why the hell would you HIDE this feature. It should be right up there clear and simple in something like the view menu.
Also the shortcut you have chosen conflicts with snipping on Evernote. And Evernote is a fairly popular app. This feature is great and can only get better.
It may not have every feature other vector apps have but its a great start. I had this idea of unifying Vectors and Pixels into a single App for quite some time, as they share quite an amount of common controls — now you did it!
Welldone for a Start. That would be an instant purchase from me! Love the UI btw, amazing app. Thumbs up for this! Also try the new Vector SNAP app… it easy to use via iphone and you can save the actual vector image to use later on.
