Some Artweaver users are asking for a portable version of Artweaver and the answer if there exists such a version is No and Yes!

Maybe you are a little bit confused by the answer but it is quite simple:

No means that you cannot directly download a portable version of Artweaver from the Artweaver website but Yes means that you can make an existing Artweaver installation portable. Doing this only requires some steps which are detailed described in the How to make Artweaver portable KB article on the Artweaver help website.

Maybe you have already noticed it but since the last update to version 4.0.2 Artweaver is now completely available in French. Not only the setup and the program interface is translated to French but also the whole help file.

A big thanks goes to Yves NONEN who had done a great job in translating everything into French. You can use Artweaver in French either by switching the language in the preferences to French or by choosing French when launching the Artweaver setup. As soon as you switch to French in Artweaver the online help opens in French language too.

An update for Artweaver Free and Plus 4 to version 4.0.2 is now available. You will get this update automatically over the Artweaver self update feature the next days.

This update includes the following improvements / fixes

• French language file and help by Yves NONEN added
• Loading of old Artweaver 0.x brush presets improved
• Preview of transformation tools improved
• File format registration while installing improved
• Arrangement of palettes improved
• Error in smear brush method fixed
