Screenify Studio v2.1.3

Patterned backgrounds, and shadows that follow the phone

A plain colour behind your recording is clean, but it can also be flat. This release adds a pattern layer to solid backgrounds — and fixes a shadow that never quite matched the phone it belonged to.

What's New

• Background patterns. A new Pattern section in the Color tab draws a grid, dots, plus signs, crosses or diagonal lines over a solid colour background. You control the colour, opacity, spacing, thickness and rotation, so it can be a barely-there texture or a bold graphic backdrop.
• The pattern belongs to the background. Wherever the background goes, the pattern goes with it — showing through a Mac screen mockup, and filling the space around a device in a 3D shot. It isn't a separate overlay you have to keep in sync.

Fixes

• Device mockup shadows now follow the phone. With a 2D iPhone or iPad frame, the exported shadow traced the recording area inside the frame instead of the outline of the device. It came out smaller than the phone, with square corners where the phone has rounded ones, and was mostly hidden behind the frame itself. The shadow now hugs the device body — and keeps hugging it while a 3D camera move is running.

  If you have a project that uses a 2D device frame together with a shadow, exporting it again will give you a different — and correct — shadow.
