CUE Designer Release Notes

Fit image/graphic on Mount According to Placeholder Setting

In systems prior to CUE Print version 3.27.0, the functionality for fitting images and graphics when mounted on a page, was configured in the Product Setup configuration object in the Setup workspace on product level or in the Newsroom Setup configuration object on newsroom level.

The chosen configuration was used for all image/graphics that was mounted on a page in the current newsroom/product.

From CUE Print 3.27.0, the settings made in the configuration object in the Setup workspace remain valid. But now it is also possible to overrule this setup by defining the mount setting individually on a mounted placeholder image or graphic.

The individual setting is made in CUE Designer where a new Fitting when Mounted… menu option that has been added to the Image Palette menu.

 

The Fitting when Mounted… menu option has a sub-menu containing four fitting options:

Option Description Default
Use Default Uses the configured value made in the configuration object in the Setup workspace X
Fill Frame Proportionally Resizes the image content to fill the entire frame while preserving the its proportions.
Fit Content Proportionally Resizes the image to fit the frame while preserving its proportions.
Fit Content to Frame Resizes the image content to fill the entire frame horizontally and vertically – and thus allowing distortion of image or graphic.

 

Leading as Number of Register Lines

In order to simplify the setup of leading to match the actual register leading defined by the assigned register model, the leading parameter of the <CL,a>Change Leading composition code has been modified in CUE Print version 3.27.0.

If the leading parameter entered is a number “x” followed by a “l”, e.g. 1l, the resulting leading will match “x” times the register leading, i.e. <CL,1l> for 1 register line as leading or <CL,2l> for two times the register lines as leading.

In CUE Designer, a fixed “1 l” entry has been added to the drop-down list of options for the  option in the Edit bar:

And in the Character palette:

Selecting the “1 l” option results in activation of the “Register hold” justification functionality.

General.SystemConnections.ServerConnections

the built-in check based on LibreOffice spell check will be used (only spelling errors and no grammar error).

CUE Designer Notes

Resizing an Image on the Page

In systems prior to version 3.29, when an image frame in CUE Designer was resized so that the image frame was no longer filled with image content and the Crop Inside Component Onlymenu option in the Image palette had been set on the image, a message informing you that the resize could not be done appeared. Before the resizing of the image could be done, the Crop Inside Component Only option in the Image palette had to be turned off.

From CUE Print version 3.29, when an image is resized directly on the page – And the resize would historically result in the Crop Inside Component Only warning, the system will now try to prevent the cropping outside of the image by not only resizing, but also:

  1. Moving the crop area into the image (changing x, y of crop area)
  2. Scaling the image

     

 

New Automatic Photo Flow Trigger Introduced

From CUE Print3.29, a new In shape automatic photo flow trigger has been introduced in the CUE Print photo workflow.

The new trigger can be triggered in three cases:

  1. When a photo is added to a shape in CUE Composer.
  1. When one or more photos are imported from CUE.
  1. When a photo is mounted on a page. This is in the case where a photo has not already activated the In shape trigger. Then the In shape trigger will be activated when the photo is mounted on a page.
