The  G2D v1.8 Library for Hollywood has now been released. G2D is an include file for Hollywood MAL, it is a 2d-oriented library that adds a lot of commands, objects and methods to handle 2d graphic areas but the best feature it has is that it is a full featured skinning system that also allow multi-layered skinning. This library has been heavily used with HGui to build gadgets and to make skinning possible.

The library is provided with all needed dependencies (all written in plain Hollywood) and some examples, and is FREE.

Here is a video showing some included examples: YouTube link (https://youtu.be/0AGsQZM03lU)
