I downloaded and installed the updated for the spirals. When I look under about SCAL, it shows 4.026. If I check for updates, it says I have 4.025 and need to install the update. I have installed the update about 4 times now and never get the spirals. It always tells me I need to update even though it says I'm running 4.026. Anybody have any ideas on why this is doing this?

Interesting Sharon. I just tried mine and it does the same. I am running SCAL Pro. It says I am running 4.026 but if I check updates it says I am running 4.025. Strange. I will check it again when I reboot later and email Brandon if necessary.

Thanks for the heads up.

I'm running SCAL Pro too. I have rebooted my computer and it's still the same way.

[Gigi]

Me too. I will email Brandon.

The update fixed the problem with it saying it needed the update but I still only have the rectangle tool. It doesn't have the spiral, star, etc.

Sharon, are you clicking on the tool and holding down the left mouse button? The tools will show in drop down.

I'm running both Mac, and Windows. Both versions of SCAL 4, it states the correct version number 4.027 and I have the Spiral tool. Running Windows 8.1 and Yosemite version 10.10.3.

Thanks Michelle for clarifying. Was just going to post that there was an update to fix the "update notification" issue that some of us have been experiencing. You guys are on top of it!

[Sharon]

All I have showing is the rectangle. When I hold the left click, nothing happens.

Sharon -
You should also have a drop down menu on your text tool and the knife tool as well. Do you get options on those when you left click and hold down? Try shutting the program off and restarting it (not rebooting). I had to restart it a few times before my tool bar responded. I thought my mouse was acting up - still not sure that it wasn't!

Let us know if that works......

[Sharon]

It's finally working after several reboots. I don't know why it took so many reboots for the click and hold to start working......but it's working now!

[Gigi]

Good - glad it's working. Thanks for letting us know.

If others have this issue, please let me know. I can ask Brandon to double check it in his next update. Thanks for your patience, Sharon.

So glad it's finally working, Sharon. You'll have to post what you create using the Spiral Tool.
