Get Moho 13.5.1! Free update for Moho 13.5 owners
Moho 13.5.1 free update fixes several issues and also adds some improvements
The improvements include two new Blending modes, “Soft Light" and "Color Dodge" to improve the compatibility with Adobe Photoshop, Clip Studio Paint and other graphic software.
There are also new options to create masks. Simply right click a Group or Bone layer and select the kind of mask you want. This new way to create masks is faster and much more intuitive for new users.
Please check the full list of fixes and improvements here:
* Bug fix: Can't load or save image files with non-ASCII characters (é ü ẞ etc.).
* Bug fix: Wind combined with bone targeting.
* Added some filtering to the Templates folder to not show invalid file types.
* Enhancement: Added commands to turn masking on or off for groups when you right-click them in the Layers panel.
* Bug fix: If you create a closed shape with sharp corners, the bezier handles on the last point before closing are messed up. They're sharp, but weird.
* Bug fix: Fixed a paint bucket bug when filling a new shape on top of an existing shape. A stroke would be applied, even if the paint bucket was set to fill only.
* Bug fix: If all the bones are removed from a Vitruvian group, then that group should automatically get removed from the project.
* When "Reveal All" masking is turned on for a group, set the bottom layer to subtract from mask.
* Bug fix: Some movie exports that included audio were either crashing or producing corrupted movies.
* Bug fix: Problem with the Delete Edge tool.
* Bug fix: Right-clicking with a pen on the layers panel doesn't bring up the context menu.
* Enhancement: Added two new layer blend modes, "Soft Light" and "Color Dodge". Renamed Add to "Linear Dodge (Add)" to match the terminology in some other software.
* Tweak: New audio layers have spatial positioning turned off by default. This does not affect existing projects.
* Fixed some display problems with vector layers being clipped when GPU display mode is on.
* Replaced manuals with versions containing higher-resolution images.
* Bug fix: Camera channels couldn't be muted in the timeline.
* Bug fix: Couldn't copy and paste Camera Pan/Tilt keyframes.
* Bug fix: Crash in certain combinations of auto-save, smart bones, and channel muting.
* Bug fix: Crash when copy/pasting Vitruvian bones when colored bones are present.
* Bug fix: When editing keyboard shortcuts, the user could enter invalid keys that would force the entire shortcut file to get reset to default.
* Bug fix: In some multi-screen configurations, windows or menus could come up on the wrong screen.
* Tweak: Improved some cursors' appearance on Windows.
* Improvements to copy/paste of Vitruvian Bones
* Various other bug fixes

Thanks for the update. There are some great/useful/much-needed fixes and enhancements.
I especially like the simplified Masking method/s. I was also having some thoughts about Masking and one day would love to see additional masking options at the Shape level (i.e. within a single layer) for simple things like pupils in eyeballs. Not really sure how it would be managed in practice, but ...
One thing with the high-res docs, they don't seem to have Index/TOC page hyperlinks. i.e. Can't click on the referenced page number to go there.

Thank you so much for addressing the more critical bugs from 13.5 (broken Delete Edge, No Right-Click with pen, non-English characters, etc.,) And the new features in 13.5.1 are welcome too!
Very nice!
Sadly I still got the "unable to parse from json" error while trying to recover an autosaved file after a crash. The thing is that when I disable auto-saving I think I don't have any crashes so ironically I only really need auto-save when I have autosave on.
BTW... I had some problems with Round caps in 13.5. Sometimes they just don't work and I have to take one like from another document and copy the stroke to make it work.

I don't think I've run into that one. Can you describe how to reproduce the problem?

It just happened one day. I just opened a new document and I started to add new lines and those new strokes all they were without round caps. Even I checked and unchecked the round caps box but it didn't work. I closed MOHO and opened again and the same issue. Finally, I brought a layer from another document and I copy the stroke with round caps and it started to work.
That was weird and it only happened ones. I share it here in case the same thing may happened to someone
I have Norton installed not letting me complete the installation. Ran into this the first time but don't remember what I did and cant find the thread on this error.

OK figured it out ( I think) Some how my Created Content folder became read only Switching this back allowed me to install without issue. I only found it because I wanted to make sure the original 13.5 was still working and it wouldn't let me save any of my files. But all is well now.
Thanks for the update!!

It is a really great software that I have used for years (https://droptoons.com), since Anime Studio. However, any newer version is pretty useless to me, since I can't use MP3 audio...all my current projects have mp3 audio.
Please fix this! I really don't look forward to converting all my audio to OOG and the problems that will ensue.

Took me a while to figure out that my odd-sounding audio was being spatial positioned... : ) (of course, glad to be reminded that the audio can be spatially positioned!)
