Iris 1.0 Update

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

Due to a silly mistake on my part Iris hasn’t shipped with any help files. Sorry.

We have a script that runs in Xcode as part of the build process. It does some processing on the Help files and then copies them to the application bundle. Unfortunately it doesn’t work properly when we flip the switch to build the release version of an app. We think no one noticed because of the caching Apple Help does.

The misbehaving script caused problems with Interarchy 9.0 too. I fixed the script for Interarchy 9.0.1 but I didn’t push the changes to Iris. Again, sorry.

We are working on Iris 1.0.1. It will ship with Help.

Some people are experiencing screen update issues. We think this is an incompatibility between some optimisation we have done in 1.0 and the video cards that ship with some Macs. We are investigating and hope to have this fixed by the time Iris 1.0.1 ships.

If you are having an issue with Iris please contact us. We can’t fix what we don’t know about. Please let us know.

Iris 1.0

Monday, June 16th, 2008

I am very pleased to announce the release of Iris 1.0, an all-new image editor for Mac OS X.

Iris has been created for previously overlooked Mac users who simply wanted an accessible and easy to use image program that provides professional results, without the professional price tag.

Iris takes a different approach to traditional image editors like Photoshop. Instead of spewing confusing palettes everywhere Iris presents everything in an elegant one-window interface.

Iris requires Mac OS X 10.5 or later. Mac OS X 10.5.3 is strongly recommended.

You can download a free trial of Iris 1.0 here.
