on scripts. And, so that developers don't have to waste time manually
defining and editing the location of documents or tool types, CanDo now
comes with a Configuration Utility that lets you do all of these tasks
using one simple interface.
CanDo 2.0 now gives you better control over brushes and brush anims —
including a single-step control — and better control over audio: now you
can stop and start any one of the Amiga's 4 sound channels separately,
without affecting the others.
For developers working with 68040-based systems like the Amiga 4000, CanDo
2.0 now fully supports the 68040 Copy Back mode. This allows the 68040 to
fully use its own cache memory, for a 20% speed increase over normal 040
operations (depending on your application), already three times faster than
68030-based Amigas.
Other enhancements include:
User definable grids (with a snap-to-grid option)
Improved online help
Full support for international characters (Spanish, French,
German and Italian)
Support for images up to 1700 x 2200 (RAM permitting),
such as 200dpi faxes.
Support for scripts in excess of 1000 lines (limited only by
memory)
More efficient memory usage
"Our intention is to produce the best possible tools for multimedia
application developers." says Tim Martin, Vice President of INOVAtronics.
"The newest version of CanDo was designed as much by professional
developers using the product, as it was by the programming staff at
INOVAtronics."
CanDo 2.0 is available now, and is available in either English or German
versions.

What's the cost of upgrading from version 1.5 to 2.0. Have their been any
changes to 2 of my pet peeves with CanDo 1.5?
1) The File Requester (ugh): Is their anyway to call an external file
requester, like at least the ASL.library or req.library?
2) The Slider Gadgets: I've seen some programs one in particular for the
Video Toaster, that I immediately knew that it was written with CanDo
with those one of a kind slider gadgets (GRIN). Are there any choices
for something more WB2.0 like?
