1. update via Envato Plugin is the right way and is working?
I would recommend to download package and update at your own to update properly.
2. is WP Bakery a discontinued product for Specular? If so, how do the pages need to be redesigned to prepare for this transition (in future)?
No, wpbakery is still working fine and you have to use backwards compatibility plugin now which is also included in the theme.
3. as you mentioned it: which minimum php-version is mandatory?
All such details are mentioned in the theme package but I just pointed it only for an example that which type of issues occur etc … it was only for an example but still you can get info inside package
4. or a little wider: which system requirements are given for updating to 4.1x?
Again anything if changed will be mentioned in the package files
5. which plugins are known not to work with version 4.1x of the Specular theme?
By now all are working [issue sometimes occur because WordPress core changed so did we our code and some server or related free plugins were not compatible but most of them or almost all are working fine again]
I appreciate your detailed answer on the specific questions, since I know already that having a backup is always a good idea ;o)
OK logo part is fixed as far as speed if you changed in settings but did not work I have to check in code and will be updating you accordingly.
Can you please send me screenshot of that line ? As I can see there is one shadow which is looking like line but could not see any border so screenshot will help me a lot here.

That’s great help thanks a lot. Due to language difference I was not able to get exact buttons and yes the issue for font-family which I have applied an check now ?
Kindly have a check now ? I have deregistered your theme purchase key. Let me know if it is working fine or not ?
Also once you see it working let me know for any of your other queries and it will be wise to put your own thread rather than putting replies on multiple threads. Because we only reply to a particular thread.
In above response it is mentioned that provide your purchase key if you had provided I would have made it done by now ? But you only asked question but did not provide purchase key.
Kindly provide Theme purchase key so I can deregister this for you.
Yes you can update, but the thing is always it is wise decision to keep full backup of your website. Because when theme or WordPress gets update its code base is updated which means it may not work well with some host providers. Like if certain code is made specific to php version 7 and say if someone using version 5 may get in to issue if he/she don’t have a backup.
In short keeping backup is only for your safety but you can update your theme or plugins how you want ?
