Software-update: Lunacy 9.5.0

Lunacy is een gratis grafisch ontwerpprogramma voor Windows, Linux en macOS. Het heeft een grote hoeveelheid ingebakken content, zoals iconen, foto's, gemaskeerde afbeeldingen en illustraties. Het is ook in staat om Sketch-bestanden te openen en Sketch-plug-ins te gebruiken. Het programma wordt actief ontwikkeld en Icons8 lijkt daarbij goed naar de community te luisteren.

Lunacy version 9.5.0

FREE format

The default file format in Lunacy is now .free, which is almost fully compatible with the features from the Figma and Sketch formats. We designed .free to address the issues available in .sketch when it comes to very large design files. From the users’ point of view .free brings:

• Much lower file sizes, especially of files with thousands of layers, like design systems and similar.
• Up to 2 times faster saving and opening of files.

We encourage developers to join the .free format community and integrate it into their products. The specification of the free format is available on GitHub under the MIT license. Key advantages of .free:

• Optimized for large documents.
• Human-readable JSON.
• Expandable file structure: a simple archive with JSON files and assets.

FAQ

• # Does Lunacy still work with Sketch?
  Yes, Lunacy still supports .sketch like no other app, except Sketch itself. But for better experience with Lunacy, we recommend using .free.
• # Can I convert .free to .sketch or vice versa?
  Yes. You can easily convert between the formats using the Save as option.

Lunacy version 9.4.2

• Fixed the bug with the minimum macOS version requirement of 14.0. Now Lunacy runs flawlessly on macOS 11 and higher.
