“As a product manager I constantly need to communicate my ideas visually but I lack the time, attention and motivation to learn something like Photoshop. I downloaded LiveQuartz Lite and was manipualting images and creating new content within minutes. I didn’t hesitate to pull the trigger on the upgrade to the Unlimited version and more than happy that I did. I’ve since encouraged my non technical friends and my kids to use it and have seen the same results.Highly recommended.” - BobKattt (2.3.2)
“I enjoy Mac style Apps because they make artistic sense to me. I like to have as little math, tangent calculations, and non creative tasks involved when I am creating artwork and graphic design projects. With LiveQuartz, pencils act like pencils, and brushes brush. Actions are smooth and simple as putting a pen to paper. The layers behave magically and the various composites and photo effects are fluid and intuitive. Each time I use this program, I find new tools and combinations that help add to the fun of creating. Great program.” - Phil Seymour (2.0.3)

Livequartz 2 0 2 – simple image editor freeware

LiveQuartz is a basic graphic editor developed for macOS by Romain Piveteau.

Each document is in a single window with layers and filters on both sides, tools are displayed on the top and document settings or at the bottom in the status bar. LiveQuartz[1] features layers-based image editing, non destructive filters and selection, painting and retouching tools. LiveQuartz was one of the first public raster image editors built on top of Core Image to be made public.In May 2005, when the first beta of iMage (the original name of LiveQuartz) was released, its singularity was that it was the first graphic editor to use two new Mac OS X Tiger frameworks: Core Image and Core Data. LiveQuartz was also, back in early 2005, the first macOS X image editing app to use a unique window user interface without 'palettes'.

Features[edit]

  • Uses technologies like Cocoa (API), Quartz (graphics layer), Core Data and Core Image.
  • Uses layers-based editing and non destructive filters (filters can me merged onto their layer when using certain tools or when doing certain actions like cutting a selection, etc.).
  • Selection and retouch tools.
  • LiveQuartz provides unlimited (per document) undos (since app opening).
  • Integrates with macOS and applications such as Apple Photos. Support for Drag and Drop and standard image formats (JPEG, PNG, TIFF, HEIF).
  • Pictures can be imported a lot of different ways: They can be drag and dropped from Finder or other applications. They can be opened from the 'File' menu. They can be shared from Apple Photos app. They can be taken with an iSight camera from within the app, imported from a scanner or plugged camera or with an iOS device having the same iCloud account as the mac with Camera Continuity in macOS Mojave.
  • Support for other macOS features such as multi-touch gestures, versions, auto save, and full screen mode.

Version history (in decreasing date order)[edit]

LiveQuartz[edit]

Release dateVersionMinimal macOS requirementRelease note
December 20182.810.11

Heavyocity media ensemble woods collection download free. New features:

  • In Edit menu, the latest selection can be restored
  • As it is similar, the brand new “Paint Bucket” is available by choosing the background eraser tool with ‘alt’ key pressed
  • Drag and drop of text layers is now possible (Previously, it would have converted the layer to a pixel image layer)
  • Default corner input points for certain transform filters now default to the current position of the corners (example: “Perspective Correction” filter)


Bug fixes:

  • Drag and drop of layers and filters between two LiveQuartz documents is back on Mojave
  • Fixing an issue on certain configurations with painting tools on Mojave (pencil and duplication tool)
  • Scrolling with input devices like the magic mouse is disabled while using tools to avoid wired behaviour
  • Fixing an English localisation issue in filter picker
  • Fixing a layer size issue with background eraser when using a selection
September 20182.710.11

New features (macOS Mojave):

  • Support of Dark Mode
  • Linear gradient tool uses a better quality filter to generate the gradient image
  • New native dialog asking for an App Store review that will be displayed sometimes after exporting an image
  • Continuous camera support (‘ctrl’-clic or right clic on the layers’ list)

Bug fixes:

  • Fixing a sandbox issue preventing to import scanner or camera images on certain configurations
  • Prevent from a possible hang when opening documents (while building layer previews)
  • Fixing a crash preventing QuickLook to work properly
  • On Mojave, fixing a refresh issue when removing filters
  • On Mojave, fixing a bug preventing to change order of layers or filters with drag and drop
  • Note: The (temporary) workaround was to disable the possibility to drag and drop layers and filters between two LiveQuartz documents on Mojave. I hope to re-enable this functionality as soon as possible.
June 20182.610.11

Features:

  • Better performance when scrolling and window resizing thanks to use of core animation layer backed views (we are still

Black macbook hard drive. etc.)

  • LITE: Dragging one or several layer(s) does not account anymore for the limit of one export per day
