Release highlights

DRAFT - Not yet released.

Inkscape 0.92.2 is a stability and bugfix release. For a complete list of bugs fixed in 0.92.2, see the Launchpad milestone page.

Improvements

  • Add a control point to the centers of rectangles, circles/ellipses and stars to make it easier to move them and to align them in a precise way. (Video)
  • DPI Change: Command line option --dpi-update-method=[none|scale-viewbox|scale-document] to batch-process legacy files (Bug #1659489)
  • Enable setting of default 'font-style'.
  • Improve selection chemistry z-stack ordering (Bug #1395452)
  • Rework the object panel, including making shortcut handling respect user-defined shortcuts.
  • Add ability to generate one path from multiple paths with LPEs in them (Bug #1664632)
  • Automatically fix baseline spacing of <flowDiv> flowed text elements when importing legacy documents. (Bug #1661771)

Regression fixes

  • GUI: Fix file preview on Windows when using the native file open dialog (Bug #802904)
  • Printing: Fix crash when printing on Windows (Bug #1665768)
  • Text: Fix tiny font size for sub/superscripts (Bug #1658029)
  • Fix occasional crash closing or saving on Windows 7 (Bug #1670688)

Important bugfixes

  • GUI: Window position/size was often wrong on startup and when opening new documents (Bugs #1190828, #1654464, #195683, #568867)
  • Symbols: Fix loading of Visio Stencils from .vss files with special characters in file name (Bug #1662465)
  • SVG import/export: Special characters in the document's "title" field could result in invalid SVG output and prevent re-opening the file on Windows (Bugs #576126, #1627551)
  • EMF/WMF import/export: Fix many issues that occurred when the system's locale was set to a language using comma (,) as decimal separator. Notably text was often positioned wrongly after import (Bugs #1089857, #1335660, #1599763, #1675755) and the export option "Convert gradients to colored polygons series" made Inkscape crash (Bug #1549015)
  • LaTeX+PDF export: Fix export for text inside a masked or clipped group. (Bug #1417470)
  • Extensions: The attribute xml:space="preserve" for INX Parameters of type description was ignored but they were untranslatable without it (Bug #1668115). The attribute is now respected and translations work properly in all cases, however please note that this might change formatting in cases that were broken before, i.e. whenever omitting the attribute. To maintain visual appearance please add the attribute.
  • Import: Fix many issues with importing large files. Many files that could not be opened before (especially those containing large raster graphics) should import fine now. (Bugs #1572280, #1412912, #1373322, #1243011, #1627004, #1687090)
  • Fonts: Do not load fonts with illegal characters in font family name which caused a crash. (Bugs #1508928, #1495386)
  • Inkview: Fix loading files with non-ASCII characters in filename (Bug #488997)
  • Shortcuts
  • Fix "Shift" modifier being added incorrectly for many user defined shortcuts (making them unusable)
  • Allow to set shortcuts with characters that need to be escaped (e.g. "&", "<", ">")
  • Fix crash when exporting user defined shortcuts on Windows (Bug #1639701)
  • Improved performance of shortcut list in preferences
  • Fill and Stroke: Fix HSL color selector sometimes showing corrupted colors with a non-functioning 5th slider (Bug #1635982)
  • Fix occasional crash when closing Inkscape or saving the document (Bug #1670688)
  • Fix tearing and glitching while moving objects. Don't stop() the rubberband until it has actually been started. (Bug #1510704)
  • Fix various memory leaks (Bug #1662686, #1662683)

  • Don't block data entry into the text-tool font-size entry widget after an empty entry
  • Reduce overall height of the options dialog (Bug #1666939, #1659446)
