Version history for courses

Save versions of a course, look at any of them, and restore one if something went wrong. Parkdly also keeps automatic versions before big changes.

New

A full-page theme editor, with Draft and Publish for saved themes

Open in theme editor shows every theme setting on one page beside a live preview. The Theme panel keeps font, colors and text sizes, and saved themes edit as a draft that reaches your courses when you press Publish.

New

Spruce, palm and dead trees, plus logs, tree trunks and hay bales

One Tree tool now places leafy trees, spruces, palms and dead trees, mixed if you like. Trees, rocks & objects also gains logs, tree trunks and hay bales, each with its own theme color.

New

Tall grass, concrete, dirt, golf areas and barricades on the map

Draw tall grass, golf greens, fairways and tees, and event barricade lines in Map mode, and give paths and paved areas a concrete or dirt surface. Tall grass draws with tufts on every theme.

New

Print bleed, crop marks and a safe-area guide

PDF exports can add 3 mm of print bleed and crop marks for print shops, and the template editor shows a safe area that keeps text clear of the cut.
