I think the issue is that Manga seems to effectively save an export of PSD and then internally continues on in its native format, so you can use all the tools like vector layers, when you save again it is converted again to a PSD and saved. I don't know that it will ever work the same as any Photosh...

I like the ASP vector tools better than the Manga Studio ones personally. Changing line width for example is so much nicer in ASP. Hmmm :? actually the MS tools are soooo much more advanced but ASP is catching up by every release. The MS line width is tricky to find though sure, but generally it is...

Yeah Chucky I don't have a budget that can accommodate a 960. It just ain't gonna happen.

And I guess it isn't helpful if you are rendering to png.

But I would like to know how video cards affect performance of ASP11 in general. If it were a big issue I imagine there would be more of a discussion here but it is seldom mentioned.

I also deleted the catalyst profiles for my current card and now it isn't crashing, so far, and if it stays stable I may wait and look for a sale. So right now I'm in no hurry.

120 is the psychological limit that can make it past my wife before she balks at the price. I would rather spend 99 ☺

Well, alright then. It doesn't seem that I will get much better performance in ASP by spending more, so I'll likely be ordering the GT 740, I'm not a much of a gamer so that will be enough, if it helps ASP then great, if not, I won't have spent too much.

I'm assuming more ram will help with rendering speed. Is that a safe assumption?

regardless, I found you the same product for 20 dollars cheaper. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=17Z-0025-00001&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Desktop+Graphics+Cards-_-17Z-0025-00001&gclid=CPSem52LyMYCFckYHwodTRYPmA&gclsrc=aw.ds 30 dol...

I don't know what the performance improvement in ASP will be with a new card, I have a quad-core i7 3.4 tower with lots of space for a new card. I am on a budget though, would this work well, and how well? Do you have any better suggestions? I don't really play games so this is just a general card f...

Yep, I like interpolated switch ayers for mouths myself. But learning smart bones and using dials are key to getting the most out of ASP11 in general. It isn't an either/or situation.

It would be cool if there were a way to exclude specified layers within groups from the 'clear animation' function. Say, a cycle that always will happen with a character or prop. Something like 'lock animation in this layer' in the Layer Properties dialog. "Immune to 'clear animation' " I ...
