New features of MagicSquire 1.4 panel in Photoshop explained on new video: loading .TPL files, adding Tool Presets to the panel, using ALT-click to use current brush as Eraser (or any other tool), Compact Mode!

Better than the right-click? No click! New MagicSquire 1.3 delivers right-click replacement for brush view in Photoshop.  – NEW!
