Imerge 2022.1 release notes

Released 21 June 2022. The big news in this release is the merging of Imerge into the Artlist ecosystem, with new branding, support for subscription licensing, and an improved onboarding process with tutorials built into the Learn sidebar.

Highlights

  • Added support for the Creator and Pro tiers of Imerge as part of the FXhome subscription. Check out our new subscription plan here (please note that perpetual is still available for those who would like to keep their current pricing).
  • Add a new “Learn panel” which provides access to high-quality, specific tutorials in order to understand and learn how to use the application better.
  • Imerge has had a major rebranding, with new logos, new icons, and a new color palette.
  • Added a new clipping masks feature. This feature gives layers the ability to clip to other layers in order to define their visual boundaries.
  • Perfect for masking layers using complex shapes or images.
  • Added a new lasso mask feature. This mask can be used to quickly draw a rough shape or loop around parts of your image.
  • Added a new magnetic lasso mask feature. This mask automatically snaps to the edges of items in the image to allow you quickly and precisely mask part of the image.

Enhancements

  • Redesigned the project list on the home screen.
  • Improved the softness of Area masks to behave more intuitively.
  • Improved the resize controls of Area masks to be easier to use.
  • You can now individually lock masks and effects to prevent accidental changes.
  • Updating a Vector Mask no longer disables the mask and allows you to see the effect of the mask in real-time.
  • You can now hold shift while adding vector mask points to add angle snapped lines.
  • Added a reset button for mask items, making it easier to reset a mask.
  • Improved the project recovery dialog by having a background checkboard for partially transparent images.
  • Made it easier to hide and show 2nd monitor preview.
