What's new ?

The latest Version of Aurelio is 1.2 (Release Date: 04/Mar/2004) New!

The new features and enhancements in this version include:

  • Redesigned program interface (Menu structure , toolbar and status bar) to become much easier to use.

  • All the image effects (previously known as pixel shaders) could be done now on any computer , so you don’t need any more a VGA card with a ‘Programmable pixel shaders’ hardware to apply the image effects , but if ‘Programmable pixel shaders’ is present it will enhance the performance.

  • Removed the 30 execution times limit of the demo , now you can try the demo for 30 days without any limitations on the number of execution times.

  • Added the ability to import images form digital devices (Scanners , Digital cameras , …etc.).

  • Fixed the issue of the program crashing on some systems when you return from the full screen mode to the normal mode.

  • Better ability to manipulate the image list by adding (Select All , Select None , Next image , Previous image , First image , Last image , Start slide show and End slide show) buttons to the toolbar.

  • Better ability to manipulate the effect intensity by adding (Increase effect and Decrease effect) buttons to the toolbar.

  • Added the information of image file size and date as well as image zoom percentage to the status bar.

  • The mouse cursor will turn to a magnifying glass cursor if the program is in the zoom mode , and will turn to a hand cursor if the program is in the pan mode.

  • Fixed some minor print preview issues.

  • Enhanced new look and feel as well as functionality for folders and drives in the browser window.

  • The program now gives a warning if it can't find a 3D accelerated vga card on your computer , then it continues to work as usual.

    The new features and enhancements in version 1.1 include:

  • The Art Draw 2 and Negate Pixel Shaders are now adjustable by mouse wheel or ‘+’ or ‘-‘ buttons , so all the pixel shaders are now adjustable by mouse wheel or keyboard.


  • The emboss pixel shader has been enhanced , it has now 8 light source directions instead of four , also it became adjustable by mouse wheel and key board , instead of keyboard only , (You can press the ‘+’ or ‘-‘ and watch the light source circulating around the image producing an attractive effect).


  • The program now saves all pixel shader states , so you can adjust the intensity of all the pixel shaders as you desire and the program will remember them the next time it executes.


  • Pixel shaders reset , which sets all pixel shader effects to their default values and return to normal mode (i.e. without any pixel shaders applied).


  • Enhanced Printing algorithm , which produces very accurate results specially when pixel shaders are applied , and also fixed the issue of not accurately prints images of high brightness and artdraw1 pixel shader applied.


  • Enhanced panning , producing better and more accurate image movement with the mouse.


  • Automatic file associations has been removed.


  • Fixed a bug in the high precision pixel shader benchmark.


  • Fixed the issue of the mouse wheel when in full screen having a different wheel steps than the normal mode.


  • Added a 3DStereo image sample with a file name of “Stereo.jps.”
