For example, (as demonstrated in the image below) it is possible to add a new node at the highest point in a curve using The tool control bar for the Node Tool features a new dropdown to insert new nodes on the selected segments extreme values. Toggles the color display mode between normal and grayscale. Masked and clipped objects with large masks / clipping paths in Outline viewĭisplay color mode has been added, that shows a preview of your drawing in grayscale. Stroke of transformed objects in patterns Pattern fills (no more gaps between tiles, regardless of transformation) The following things now render correctly: Most of the rendering glitches in our bug tracker are no longer present in Inkscape 0.91.

This results in massive improvements in responsiveness of path highlights, object selection / deselection, and path editing in delayed update mode. The rendering of the SVG drawing is now cached. Inkscape now uses less memory when opening complex drawings, in some cases using only 25% of the memory used by Inkscape 0.48. This results in substantial speedups when editing drawings containing large filtered objects on multi-core systems. Renderings of the most complex objects are automatically cached to improve responsiveness during editing.įilters use all available processor cores for computation. The new renderer is significantly faster on most drawings.

This work was done mainly during Google Summer of Code 20 projects. Inkscape 0.91 includes a new renderer based on the Cairo library. Support for real world document and page size units, e.g. Improved support for Corel DRAW documents, Visio importer Symbol library and support for Visio stencilsĬross platform WMF and EMF import and export This new version features faster and more accurate rendering, new and improved tools, as well as better and wider file-format support.Ĭairo rendering for display and PNG export

Everyday people use it to create simple drawings, develop their design skills, and just have fun. Engineers and scientists use it to create clear drawings to explain their ideas.

Digital artists use it to produce professional quality work. Inkscape is an multi-platform, Open-Source Vector Graphics Editor that uses SVG as its native file format. The Inkscape community announces the release of Inkscape 0.91.
