Inkscape 1.4.2 is here! This update brings more than 70 bug & crash fixes, a fresh splash screen, new path cleanup tools, updated translations and enhanced support for file formats like Affinity Designer and Vectornator.
Lately every big GIMP update would be a minor version bump in other projects. Gimp 1 to Gimp 2 was some of a big upgrade. 2 to 3 not so much. Great software. But some of the things introduced in 3.0 are just fixes and patches to try to merge some of the decisions made 20 years ago with the current expectations on UX. And it’s still not there.
Yesterday I just did something very simple. Make a selection cut and copy selection to new layer. I don’t know why but things didn’t work as expected and the new layer had weird behavior, not allowing the use of the selection tool anymore and staying always on top. Not great UX for something that the user expects to be trivial.
Didn’t GIMP get a big update recently?
Yes it did, and thanks for that. Not it works on high resolution screens. :-)
