New features

  • You can now mix and match line widths within the same map. Use the Line Size option (Keyboard shortcut: W) in the Draw menu to choose your current line's width.
    • Note: Changing the line width in the style menu will still change the width for ALL lines, so now that you can mix and match, you may want to use that option with caution (though you can always undo).
  • New line styles have been added. In addition to the solid lines you've been using, you can now also use a dashed line, two variations of dotted lines, and two variations of densely dashed lines. These can also be mixed and matched within the same map. These are also found in the Draw menu, or you can use keyboard shortcut Q to cycle through your options.
    • Note: When using the Flood Fill feature, flood fill will only match on lines of the same color, width, and style.

  • The Hide/Show Grid button (Keyboard shortcut: H) has been reworked. Now it will cycle through showing slightly darker gridlines every 3, 5, or 7 lines to help you more evenly space out lines and stations on your map. You can still hide the grid by clicking the Show Grid button; once hidden, clicking the Show Grid button again will cycle back to showing darker gridlines every 3. Numbers have also been added to the edges of the grid to help guide you.
    • Note: The grid lines are only slightly darker -- it's meant to be subtle, and useful without distracting from your actual map.
  • Added the Ruler feature (Keyboard shortcut: R), which lets you measure how many squares are between two chosen points. The ruler is available on its own, or while drawing or erasing. The Ruler button also shows the x,y coordinates of your cursor. This can help you more evenly space out your lines and stations on your map.
  • You now have two additional options for station label orientations: Above and Below.
  • Added a Redo feature (Keyboard shortcut: Control + Y; Command + Y on a Mac), which allows you to redo a change that you previously undid.
  • Added buttons for Undo and Redo. Previously, Undo was usable only by keyboard shortcut (Control + Z; Command + Z on a Mac).
  • Made the collapsed menu easier to read when adding/editing stations.

Bug fixes

  • The grid no longer looks blurry at large map sizes:

v6:
mmm-grid-v6

v7:
mmm-grid-v7

  • Searching by city no longer fails if you search for a location with a slash in it, like "New York / New Jersey"
  • Fixed a problem where some edits (like changing all station orientations) wouldn't get correctly placed in the Undo buffer
  • Fixed a problem where alphabetical keyboard shortcuts wouldn't work if you had CAPS LOCK turned on.
  • Fixed a problem on Safari where using the undo keyboard shortcut (Command+Z) would re-open a recently closed browser tab.
  • If you hold down the mouse while drawing or erasing and press G to turn on/off the guide, the guide would continue to show when it started on (even though it's now off). Now, the guide will stop showing. The reverse is also true: if you turn the guide on while clicking and dragging, it will show again, at its original position where you first clicked.

Style changes

  • When editing or erasing a line, the "eraser marks" won't appear any more. (These were always temporary and would go away when adding/editing a station, downloading, saving, and other similar non-drawing actions, and wouldn't show up in the final map). These are gone now because of the changes in how the colors are drawn.

Miscellaneous

  • Swiping with two fingers on a Mac to scroll the page left or right will no longer accidentally navigate forward or back in the history if you reached the edge of the map and kept going.
