POSTERINO 6 With macOS 26 Apple introduces Liquid Glass—a visual language that blends translucency, depth, and focus across all its platforms. Posterino 6.0 embraces this design shift head-on. With Liquid Glass, controls gracefully step into the background, giving your creations more breathing room while keeping tools at hand when you need them. The result: a lighter, more refined Posterino that lets your art shine through. __A FRESHER LOOK & FEEL__ * Document window redesign: Toolbars, sidebars, and split views now adapt to Liquid Glass, creating a softer, more immersive workspace. * Canvas overlays: Zoom controls and layout actions like Scale Up and Scale Down are now integrated directly into the canvas, appearing only when relevant (e.g. Square-Grid layouts). * Inline Inspector polish: Fully re-styled for macOS 26 with Liquid Glass, including improvements for better readability on light and dark backgrounds. * Template picker refresh: The picker now shines in Liquid Glass and presents resolution warnings more clearly. __STREAMLINED WORKFLOW__ * Cleaner main menu: Updated to align with Apple’s latest Human Interface Guidelines. * Smarter paper handling: Posterino now checks printer paper vs. document size when exporting, helping you avoid surprises before hitting “Print.” * Focused media browser: After dropping a folder of images, the media browser now relinquishes focus automatically so you can continue working without interruptions. __FINE-TUNING & FIXES__ * The selection and manipulation of graphic objects has been refined: the highlight now appears lighter, the frame handles are more elegant, and handles are shown only when an object is selected rather than when hovering over it. * Manual layout improvements: Image drops now land where you expect them—close to the mouse pointer or properly at the origin if another image is already placed. * Keyboard shortcuts: Layout switching no longer conflicts with system screenshot commands.
