[Lazur]

That's right, we are moving in giant steps.
The download page is available here.


Let's see some of the highlights.

•speeeeeeed -no lagging on deselecting paths
•faster filter rendering
•bugfix, bugfix everywhere
•more align and distribute options
•printing the actual size is working with most common printers -Canon, EPSON, Konica Minolta

Important notes:
This new version is the first to drop Windows XP support to the past. Sorry guys if you missed out.
On the other hand, Mac users building with Homebrew can enjoy the latest build with an up-to-date poppler library 0.72.0.

See the rest in the
release notes.




Also, reporting bugs is migrated from launchpad to gitlab.

Oh noes my bad. What a pity, need to correct that multiple times.
Thank you for the heads up!


Edit: got it corrected. Seems here had the wrong text copy/pasted. The rest were fine. That's what you get with more tabs open than the number of hours staying awake.

I was wondering why there's no update on my system, then I just realized my Inkscape install is from ubuntu repository. Installing from the ppa now.

Please release a .92.4.dmg file soon! The current version is still 32 bit (despite what the info says) and from September on MAC OSX no longer supports 32 bit programs!
