Below is our intended* roadmap. Note that regular (typically monthly) additional minor updates are not detailed below.
AG Architect v2
Settings manager for AG Architect, AG Splatter, AG Block Shadows and AG Offset, all part of Stylism
AG Splatter v2
"Path Reshape" (Astute Graphics plugin #20!)
Minor updates including:
Super Marquee boolean mode (add/subtract from selection)
InkScribe workflow enhancements
"One-click" removal of all active Astute Graphics data (inc. dynamic object status, Astute Graphics live effects, mirroring, etc.) in VectorFirstAid
"Protect Sharp Corners" option when Super Smart Removing points in VectorFirstAid
Beyond mainstream functional releases, a request-based beta programme opt-in will be available through the Astute Manager. This will allow for the early deployment of "lab" style tools for testing.
Astute Graphics is also working hard towards native Apple M1 hardware compatibility for all plugins. Please refer to our social channels and website for updates.
Frequent new video and written training material so that you can get the most from our tools
Regular mini training material via our Instagram channel (which has now passed 10k followers!)
Astute Manager v3 to bring power consumption improvements, UI/UX enhancements for both macOS and Windows users, plus native Apple M1 hardware compatibility.
Evolution of the Astute Manager to become a "service hub" for designers, connecting Astute Graphics and external resources.
Astute Graphics have been listening to suggestions from customers and users since our first plugin (Phantasm) in 2006. If you have a tool or enhancement that you think would be useful to your vector workflow and other Adobe Illustrator users, please get in contact.
We also actively seek feedback from customers via regular surveys. Our latest one has ensured many improvements are underway. Read about what actions we plan to take »
