Hey everyone,
Just wanted to let you know that if you’re going to be at the San Diego comic-Con, be sure to stop by the Smith Micro Booth (Booth #4516). They will be demonstrating the soon to be released Manga Studio 4!
Tell ‘em I sent ya.

Sadly, I wasn’t able to make it to the New York Comic Con this year, but I was happy to hear from a friend of mine that the book was seemingly all over the place, and selling pretty well, to boot!
So, I just wanted to drop a quick note thanking you guys for purchasing […]

In the Dealing With Cursor Offset post, I noted that I was didn’t know how to delete the preference file for a Wacom tablet driver on a Mac. Not long after I posted that, Andy Bold sent me an e-mail that may help you Mac users out:

If you have (or want) to change the resolution of your monitor, there’s a good chance you’ll run into a very odd problem when you try drawing in Manga Studio with a Wacom tablet (I can’t speak for other tablet brands because I don’t own any other tablet brands. ).

it should read:
1. From the main menu, choose Ruler -> Create Perspective Ruler.
I’m sure you already figured that out […]

Hopefully you didn’t throw out the CD that came with the book, as there are additional chapters that didn’t make it to the final cut. Two of the chapters cover some of the more advanced features of Manga Studio EX, including using Vectors for your line work, as well as importing 2D and 3D objects […]

Part of the idea for this site is to hopefully answer questions that either weren’t covered in the book, or weren’t expanded upon enough due to book-size constraints. So, if there’s something in the book that has you confused (or isn’t in the book at all), head on over to the Contact page, and ask […]

A quick FYI regarding some of the latest operating systems and Manga Studio.
According to e-frontier, Manga Studio EX 3.0 will not work properly with Apple’s OSX Leopard. The bad (worse?) news is that it doesn’t look like it’s going to be fixed any time soon. From the sounds of things, the suggestion is to […]
