## What’s new?

Here are the features added compared to the [previous beta](https://feedback.artoverflow.io/t/artoverflow-beta-9-new-transform-tool-macos-big-sur-support/27/1):

### Autosave

ArtOverflow was already relying on macOS builtin autosave capabilities. We’re now adding support for custom autosave intervals and visual feedback when this happens.

 ![autosave notification](https://feedback.artoverflow.io/uploads/default/original/1X/948bf2f274571fce671e66b96048909f389e49bd.png)

Autosave happens in any of these situations, whichever occurs first:

- When focus is switched to another application
- When your Mac is left idle
- At the specified autosave interval, after you finish your stroke.

Autosave interval can be customized in Preferences:

Autosaved files are located in some hidden directory managed by macOS. These are used if ArtOverflow happens to crash, get forced to quit or your Mac unexpectedly shuts down.

### Brush Preview

Instead of just the name of each brush, the Tools Presets panel nows displays a preview of each brush, allowing you to find the brush you need more easily than ever.

### Panning shortcut

You can now pan by holding the space bar and dragging! 🙂

### Shortcuts Panel

A new help menu item gives you access to a summary of all the non-standard shortcuts that you can use in ArtOverflow:

### Bugfixes

- If your preference for conversion to ArtOverflow format is set to “Ask for each document”, you may have been asked for it inside or when exiting Versions Browser for JPEG/PNG/TIFF images. This is fixed: you’re now asked for it only when opening these files from Finder or the Welcome window.
- The brush size shortcut behavior could be affected by your canvas rotation. Not anymore!
