Hey, I just downloaded the new version and it seems the program has improved loads since the last time I used it.
Some versions before, there were many things not working (at least on my computer - XP, 1.8 GHz, 1GB RAM - as mentioned in another comment below).
But the latest version seems to work very nicely for me. It now has a status, that I will proably make Chasys Draw my default drawing software. 
Nice work!

Just two things: I still can´t fill spaces in my picture with colour (I will send you an email with the image I used) and I´d like to know:
Is there a way, that I can make a text field larger? Because I entered some text into the "Composition for print" -> "Enter text here"-field and the text was so long that it exceeded the field space.
I tried to figure out how to change the size of the text field according to the text length, but failed.

And a wish: Could you maybe put some tooltips into the text-editing window? That would be a great help.

Kind regards
Hannah Czerny

Hi Hannah,
Thank you for giving Chasys Draw IES a try. I've sent you a copy of this information, with screenshots, via email.

Fill picture with color:
If I understood you correctly, what you're trying to do is to fill the background of the picture with another color without affecting the text. To do that, you have the following options:
(1) Use "Effects Brush | Colorize Toon". Run this over the image to apply the new color.
(2) Create a new layer, fill that with a plain color then set its blending mode to Multiply:
The "Fill" tool cannot be used in this particular case because the background isn't uniform.

Resizing the text layer:
There are several ways of resizing the text layer:
(1) Click the auto-size button in the text-art dialog box to resize the box to fit the text
(2) Right-click the text layer and select resize

Tool-tips:
Noted; I'll add them in the next version, which is due for release soon.

Best Regards,
John Paul Chacha.
