Changelog

    Fix: Make classic brushes not go brighter when smudging into transparency. Thanks to cada for reporting.
    Feature: "Ratchet" canvas rotation shortcut, using Alt+Shift by default. Rotates the canvas in 15° increments. Thanks to Kvothen for suggesting.
    Fix: Don't filter out undo depth messages when playing back recordings.
    Fix: Make floating docks restore properly again. Thanks SnazComic for reporting.
    Fix: Don't show tag options when right-clicking on a brush preset. Thanks Blozzom for reporting.
    Fix: Properly disable blend mode combo box in layer properties dialog. Thanks xxxx for reporting.
    Fix: Move chat status bar button into a legal position. Thanks Flz for reporting.
    Fix: Correct various errors in text recording reading and writing.
    Fix: Don't keep locally forked canvas states around. This reduces memory usage by a bunch, especially when drawing locally.
    Feature: Add layer on current key frame button is now in the top bar of the timeline, next to the other key frame buttons. Thanks FallenArts for suggesting.
    Feature: Show a notice when there's no tracks yet, rather than just showing an empty timeline grid.
    Fix: Actually pick color when adding a color to the color picker through the color dialog.
    Feature: Mark window when a chat message is received. On Windows, this makes the icon in the task bar orange. On macOS, it supposedly bounces an icon somewhere. On other platforms it probably does something similar, indicating which window is the one that got a message ready. Thanks Radio for suggesting.
    Fix: Don't add current color to the palette when creating it. Thanks xxxx for reporting.
    Fix: Make exported palettes not start using the exported location to save changes to. Thanks xxxx for reporting.
    Feature: Allow muting notifications for a window. Thanks Blozzom for suggesting.
    Fix: Enable the lock session menu option properly, it remained stuck disabled in some cases before.
    Feature: Allow selecting and copying text from the pinned message (through the context menu, it doesn't take keyboard shortcuts.) Thanks Bluestrings for suggesting.
    Fix: Don't claim that a layer is locked when it's just not visible in the current frame.
    Feature: Make canvas rendering and preview painting asynchronous. This should make the UI much more responsive when e.g. changing layer visibility or transforming a large selection.
    Fix: Properly handle canvas resizes while transforming a selection, it now no longer causes the source of the transform to get offset.
    Fix: Show the current color properly on program startup.
    Feature: Make the color wheel innards go from least to most saturated, putting it in line with how most other software presents it. This can be toggled in the preferences.
    Feature: Holding Shift while moving a selection now keeps it along the closest axis. Thanks Kvothen for suggesting.
    Feature: Implement brush export and make the brush import also understand classic brushes.
    Fix: Make erasing with MyPaint brushes in indirect mode actually work.
    Feature: Make sliders adhere to the chosen color space. Thanks to leandro2222 for suggesting.
    Feature: Increase font size on emoji posted into chat. Thanks to leandro2222 for suggesting.
    Feature: Allow adding an avatar from the login dialog.
    Fix: Show main window maximized by default, because who wants a drawing program in a tiny window.
    Fix: Give docks sensible initial sizes. Thanks to xxxx for reporting.
    Fix: Don't tabify the now invisible-by-default timeline and onion skins by default. Thanks Ben for finding.
    Fix: Make the flipbook remember your last crop, frame range and playback speed for the current window. Thanks Ben for finding.
    Fix: Don't mark guests as registered. Thanks to xxxx for reporting.
    Fix: Allow assigning a shortcut to open the Layouts dialog (F9 by default) and to the entries in the Help menu (nothing by default.)
    Fix: Make reloading the last brush preset slot-specific, since it's nonsense to clobber your current slot with the last preset you set in another one.
    Feature: Allow increasing and decreasing key frame exposure. Thanks Tabuley for suggesting.
    Fix: Properly update the view when the canvas size changes, rather than leaving stale areas outside of the canvas.
    Feature: Add shortcuts to swap the contents of brush slots to allow for a kind of toggling behavior using a single shortcut. Thanks xxxx for suggesting.
    Fix: Make drawpile:// URL handling actually work on Windows. Thanks Sal for reporting.
    Fix: Don't draw the curves for MyPaint brushes in the brush editor with the same color as the background grid.
    Feature: Allow exporting animations from the Flipbook, using the cropping, frame range and speed set in it.
    Fix: Pre-fill image saving file dialogs with the current filename, rather than the previously opened or saved one. Thanks xxxx for reporting.
    Fix: Make filling transparent areas work better, rather than different surrounding colors making it behave differently.
    Fix: Make layer folders work as sources for flood filling.

Changelog

    Individual borders:

    Define the thickness of borders individually for each side of a rectangle. To do this:
    In the border settings, click border settings icon. You’ll see four individual edit boxes.
    Use these boxes to adjust the thickness of a border on each side. To remove a border from a side, set its thickness to 0.
    Also, you can now use the swap button button added to the border settings to swap the colors of the fill and border. The button is available for all shapes with solid and gradient fills. Alternatively, use the Shift + Z shortcut.

    Min and max dimensions for frames with auto layout:

    You can now set min and max width and/or height to auto layout frames. To do this:
    In the auto layout settings, click min-max icon.
    Define the required dimensions in the respective fields (see the figure below).

    Improvements:

    Images are now treated as fills of rectangle shapes. It makes it much easier to crop and resize images, and to round their corners.
    Image fill methods now include the Crop option. Use it to move or resize the image, if you want only a certain part of it to be visible within the bounds of the shape.
    Improved angular gradient editor. You can now change the position of the center and modify the shape of the ellipse.
    In the Crop mode (Shift + Enter or click crop icon on the context toolbar), you can now cut out both raster images and vector shapes.
    By default, new documents you create in Lunacy are now cloud documents.

    Bugfix: #1477 Macro IDE: changing the colors does not have an effect
    Bugfix: #1474 Throw a FATAL ERROR when multiple cellname have the same refnum
    Bugfix: #1473 Ignore 'Summarize missing layers' when sending XOR result to other layout)
    Bugfix: #1472 DEF path with first/last segment length < halfwidth are read wrong
    Bugfix: #1471 Make warning about 'FOREIGN differs from MACRO name' more informative
    Bugfix: #1470 DEF pinname VDD.extra1 should be written as VDD TEXT in gds/oasis
    Bugfix: #1465 (maybe fixed) DRC crash at end of script
    Bugfix: #1464 Layout#get_info and Layout#set_info not longer segfault on wrong layer index
    Bugfix: #1460 CellRename dialog is larger now initially
    Enhancement: #1307 (partial) Produce UNPLACED macros if location is provided
    Enhancement: New aliases for inline operators (e.g. "+=") in RBA::Region and similar classes Reasoning is that "+=" in Ruby is resolved into "+" and "=" which does not make use of the inline optimization. Using "join_with" instead will avoid this. Other alias: "join" for "+", "and" for "&", "and_with" for "&=", "not" for "-", "not_with" for "-=", "or" for "|", "or_with" for "|=", "xor" for "^" and "xor_with" for "^=".
    Bugfix: deep region 'transform' with plain shift was not working properly with scaled instances
    Bugfix: re-run of include-expanded DRC/LVS wasn't working
    Bugfix: Proper Python stack trace in debugger for Python 3.10
    Enhancement: Allowing to select cells by error markers too (so that PCells with errors can be selected)
    Bugfix: avoid a segfault in the properties dialog
    Enhancement: crash log now is shown in a more reliable way - but less fancy. In addition, a crash log is written 'klayout_crash.log' in the home path and the crash message is printed to error.
    Bugfix: Don't clear search when switching macro editor pages
    Enhancement: Macro editor file change notification now also is no longer a modal window
    Enhancement: Macro editor does not list __pycache__ directories
    Enhancement: Pick a tab in Macro editor from the context menu of tab bar
    Bugfix: moving a text with a non-centered vertical alignment now uses the right location
    Enhancement: 'copy interactive' will maintain selection
    Enhancement Better integration of partial mode - for example 'interactive move' now also acts on partial selection
    Bugfix: cleanup after deleting cells in partial mode - no new top cells appear
    Enhancement: package manager
    So not update macros while installing: avoids transient error messages
    Offer to autorun macros also after package update (so far only on package new installation
    Bugfix: Fixed a issue with the search box on the macro editor when switching to the replace text box, focus was passed to the text editor instead
    Enhancement: CIF reader progress now functional
    Enhancement: some speedup while sorting instances
    Bugfix: LayoutView does not longer need processEvents when saving an image to PNG
