I have just set it up on Amidock, and the only thing I had to do was delete the old prefs file, and save the prefs once the program had loaded.
I had it running on update#3, but it displayed wrong under update#4, and I couldn't use my old projects.
But, under OS4Final it run's OK. I have only had about 15mins playing with it, but it seems to be perfeectly alright.
One project I had used .dr2d files of some kanji, and I printed them out as a bitmap, and also exported them as postscript to my printer, and both printed correctly. The postscript export was really fast as well.
@Swoop I love DrawStudio, I guess it's simplistic views belie it's true ablilities. I used this program to design (fairly simplistic) my airconditioning needs for my house, when I could not do anything similar on my PEECEEs.
I truly welcome it's return, a nice facelift to use AISS would be fantastic.

Unfortunatly the developers left the Amiga market, and as far as I understand it they have re-used some of their code in other software, which means they can't release DrawStudio into the public domain.
I used it much in the past, actually on OS4, the only probs that I have it's in the edit color window, I am bot able to change the colors, and the sliders doesnt work. I ask If the above work for you?

Thanks, Paolo
Do you mean the color tab in the object attributes menu.
I have just selected a line, clicked edit on the pen colour, and up came a colour list window. I can drag the scroll bar on the right up and down to change the colours available in the window, and select one to change the colour of the line. The change only takes effect when I have selected OK on the colour list, and also on the object attributes window.
I hope thats what you meant. I will try to spend some more time testing, after work tomorrow.
in the color list you can also change some attributes of one color or create a new one, if you click on change or new a new window open with all the characteristics of that color, there is a color weel a transparent slider, R,G,B sliders etc. it's this window that doesn't work for me.

On loading that window and selecting edit, I can:-
1. Move the point around the colour wheel, and the RGB sliders move accordingly.
2. Move the Value slider up and down, and the number in the slider changes accordingly.
3. Change the hue and saturation values, and the RGB sliders change.
4. Select either RGB or CMYK, and the number of sliders and values change.
5. Move the Opacity slider up and down, and the number in the slider changes accordingly.
6. Move the R,G, & B sliders individually, and the number in the slider changes accordingly.
There is also a colour box which doesn't change, if you select OK, the colour displayed in the colour list changes and if you re-select edit the colour box displays the new amended colour. I am not sure if the colour box was updated in real time on the A1200, but certainly it is only updated on OS4Final once you have accepted your changes.
Fpu or not? My copy crashes on startup here. unfortunately I had my cd stolen years ago so can't do a re-install, I'm stuck with whatever I installed for my 060 years ago ;-(

Unfortunatley, the solid colour box should be updated in real time as you change the options in that window, and even putting DrawStudio on the Blacklist doesn't improve it. So it's not a JIT emulator problem.
i realize this is a rather old thread to resurrect, but i've recently been using drawstudio on both my SAM and my peg2 running OS4.1u5. performance is acceptable, but the biggest issue is the 'live' coordinates in the main window which seems to slow intuition down mightily.
also: are there any tricks to avoid redraw artifacts when moving objects?
