What’s New
Version 1.1.5:
Improvements:
- Improved layer movement and editing performance. You should now be able to select, move, and start editing layers in complex documents much more quickly
- Improved document opening performance. Large and complex documents should now be opened much faster — in some cases over 10 times faster
- The performance of the Quick Selection tool has been improved by 20%
- The cursor of the Paint, Erase, and Pixel Paint tools will now be displayed as a crosshair if it is smaller than 2 pt on the screen (based on your zoom level)
- All fonts will now be displayed in the Type tool’s font pop-up menu instead of just the ones optimized for your current region
- Guides can now be moved while using the Type and shape tools
- There is now a Guides submenu in the View menu with options to clear and lock persistent guides as well as customize alignment guides
- The range of the Spin, Box, Disc, and Motion blur effects has been extended — hold down the Option key and drag the Amount/Radius sliders to blur layers even more
- When applying effects, such as False Color, Clouds, and Checkerboard, which fill areas with color, you can now adjust the opacity of each color (in the Colors window)
- The Invert color adjustment now inverts colors mathematically rather than perceptually, just like the Invert effect does
- When using the Crop tool, the cropping box will now be drawn over your entire image, not the area on which you are currently zoomed in
Fixes:
- When opening the Photo Browser, the Photos library would occasionally not load the first time
- Fixed an issue with hue-adjusting (Hue, Select Color, Color Balance) color adjustments applied to layer masks
- Fixed an issue with using the Gradient Fill tool on layer masks with blending modes other than Normal
- Fixed an issue with applying color adjustments on empty masks — after applying the Invert adjustment, for example, it would not be immediately rendered in the image
- Resetting certain effects, such as Perspective Transform, Pinch, and others, would not redraw the entire image correctly
- Dragging and dropping layers with masks from one document into another would not preserve the position of the mask
- Fixed an issue with undoing an image size change after selecting and transforming part of an image layer
- Undoing an image size change while being fully zoomed out would make it impossible to change the zoom level
- Undoing an image size change in documents with text would sometimes break the layout of the text
- When using the Crop tool in images containing areas beyond the canvas, those areas would not be displayed correctly
- Writing and deleting text with the Stroke layer style applied would temporarily leave parts of the deleted text in the image
- When performing many repeated actions in a row, thumbnails would not always update immediately
- Added a few fixes related to SVG rendering during import and export
- Fixed an issue with using the Retouch and Paint tools in large documents that would sometimes cause Pixelmator Pro to quit unexpectedly
- Fixed an issue with infinite memory allocation when applying effects to horizontal and vertical line shapes
- Less memory will be used for the undo history of the paint, distort, and retouching tools
- Opening the font family and font face pop-up menus in the Type tool would sometimes cause Pixelmator Pro to quit unexpectedly if certain system fonts were disabled
- Fixed an issue that would cause Pixelmator Pro to quit unexpectedly while closing a document
