When switching layers, the outer stroke FX displays an issue.
When I drag a layer with an outer stroke FX outside the canvas view of the software and then drag it back, it displays normally again.
So I suspect there might be a rendering bug somewhere—please check it.
It is most likely triggered when the color picker samples a transparent channel color (for example, an empty area on the canvas).
You can try zooming in to a sufficient size and then pick a color from an area of the image that has color. This will refresh the display of the outer stroke.
This is the current workaround solution.
For many years, ProMotionNG has been my best choice when painting single images. Being able to directly view the drawing results with the layer’s stroke effect enabled, along with its excellent palette and brush library for design, makes it stand out. Whenever I switch to other software, the stroke effect and palette always pull me back to PMNG.
Now I’ve switched back to version v7 on Steam through the properties settings to continue using it. Hopefully one day Jan can fix this FX bug, and I’ll return to v8.
