What's new in ComicBookLover 1.0

ComicBookLover has evolved based on the feedback from enthusiastic users since the release of a public beta. Here are just some of the features that have been added to ComicBookLover 1.0 as it goes gold.

The on-screen display in full screen mode lets you easily control your reading by just using your mouse or trackpad. If you prefer using the keyboard, you can disable the on-screen display in Preferences.

Smart lists let you easily organise and find comics in a large comic collection. They are much improved over the smart lists featured in the public betas, with more fields available to create rules from.

For comic scans where the original comic paper is yellowed and old, white-point adjustment is the answer. By selecting the color of a pixel on the image which you think should be white, the rest of the image is adjusted.
