&lt;br /&gt;
===Extensions===&lt;br /&gt;
====New extensions ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Initial support for import of &#039;&#039;&#039;Vectornator / Linearity Curve&#039;&#039;&#039; files. The import extensions is under active development. Please report all issues you encounter to [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extras/extension-curve the repository of the subproject].&lt;br /&gt;
*An extension to &#039;&#039;&#039;Clean up paths&#039;&#039;&#039; was added. The extension removes duplicate nodes and nodes closer than a given threshold. There is also an option to close paths and join subpaths if the nodes are separated by less than given thresholds. The extension can be found in &#039;&#039;&#039;Modify Path -&amp;gt; Clean up path&#039;&#039;&#039;. Try it out! (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/499 extensions!499])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements in particular extensions ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Many new features supported for the import of proprietary &#039;&#039;&#039;Affinity Designer&#039;&#039;&#039; files, such as: &lt;br /&gt;
**more complex vector masks (vector masks of vector masks, vector masks with transparency, multiple vector masks)&lt;br /&gt;
** linked and embedded images, including stroke on images&lt;br /&gt;
** less nested groups, more natural editing of imported objects&lt;br /&gt;
**read additional shapes: Pie, Ring, Polygon (incl. curvature), Cloud, Double star, Square star,  Star (rounded tips, curved sides), Crescent, Segment, Heart, Tear&lt;br /&gt;
**Invert adjustment&lt;br /&gt;
**Symbols&lt;br /&gt;
* Various improvements to the &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF12 export&#039;&#039;&#039;: Colors are now included when saving DXF12 files (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/669 extensions!669]) and DXF12 output now supports closed paths (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/673 extensions!673]).&lt;br /&gt;
*When loading &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF&#039;&#039;&#039; files, Inkscape will preserve color in POLYLINE objects. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/672 extensions!672])&lt;br /&gt;
*The &#039;&#039;&#039;Printing Marks&#039;&#039;&#039; extension now supports negative bleed values. It&#039;s useful to specify negative bleed when for example importing an image into inkscape that&#039;s prepared with some bleed margin in mind, but without printing marks. You can then specify negative bleed margin so it &amp;quot;cuts in&amp;quot; into the imported image, reflecting its intended bleed margin. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/666 extensions!666])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The &#039;&#039;&#039;typst formula&#039;&#039;&#039; extension was updated to work better with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;typst&amp;gt;=0.12&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/659 extensions!659])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements and fixes for all extensions ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;text-decoration&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; CSS shorthand is now correctly parsed (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/657 extensions!657])&lt;br /&gt;
*Fixed a problem with argument parsing on Python 3.14 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/668 extensions!668])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Extension Development====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Added documentation on how to set the icon of an extension in the extension gallery (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/660 extensions!660])&lt;br /&gt;
*3rd-party extension authors can now use inkex&#039;s type information more easily (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/674 extensions!674])&lt;br /&gt;
*inkex now works with Numpy 2 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/661 extensions!661])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Command Line=== &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Shell --export-page=all now correctly exports all pages ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4850 Bug #4850], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6833 MR #6833])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

*Drag and Drop in the Layers dialog no longer stops working after the first time [KDE Wayland] ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5182 Bug #5182], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/7030 MR #7030])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Windows-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Scrolling through fonts with certain fonts installed no longer crashes Inkscape ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4224 Bug inkscape#4224], [https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/-/merge_requests/794 Pango MR #794]).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===MacOS-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Inkscape doesn&#039;t crash when preferences is invoked after closing window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5484 Bug #5484],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6943 MR #6943]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes and Bug Fixes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inkscape 1.4.2 is a &#039;&#039;&#039;maintenance and bugfix release&#039;&#039;&#039;, which brings you fixes for many critical or irritating bugs, and even two new features.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most important fixes and changes in this release are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* a new splash screen, providing a visual cue while Inkscape loads in the background&lt;br /&gt;
* improved Affinity Designer files (.afdesign) import&lt;br /&gt;
* more than &#039;&#039;&#039;X crash/freeze fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;, many of which affected PDF import&lt;br /&gt;
* improvements to boolean operations&lt;br /&gt;
* and almost &#039;&#039;&#039;Y more bug fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General Crash Fixes ===&lt;br /&gt;

* A new splash screen has been added, letting users know that Inkscape is loading. This can be turned off in &#039;&#039;Preference &amp;gt; Interface &amp;gt; Windows&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Closing the welcome dialog does not create a new Window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/6746 Bug #6746],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6584, MR #6584]).&lt;br /&gt;

* The new PDF importer now handles character and word spacing in text properly ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5367 Bug #5367], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6828 MR #6828]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Inkscape now automatically appends the correct extension upon changing file type ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5246 Bug #5246],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6768 MR #6768])&lt;br /&gt;
* Links are no longer misplaced when exporting to PDF ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5299 Bug #5299], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6779 MR #6779]).&lt;br /&gt;

* Shape builder no longer deforms circles that intersect with other shapes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4453 Bug #4453],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Intersection on circles produces better result ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3543 Bug #3543],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Keyboard Shortcuts ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Extensions ===&lt;br /&gt;
====New extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Initial support for import of &#039;&#039;&#039;Vectornator / Linearity Curve&#039;&#039;&#039; files. The import extensions is under active development. Please report all issues you encounter to [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extras/extension-curve the repository of the subproject].&lt;br /&gt;
* An extension to &#039;&#039;&#039;Clean up paths&#039;&#039;&#039; was added. The extension removes duplicate nodes and nodes closer than a given threshold. There is also an option to close paths and join subpaths if the nodes are separated by less than given thresholds. The extension can be found in &#039;&#039;&#039;Modify Path -&amp;gt; Clean up path&#039;&#039;&#039;. Try it out! (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/499 extensions!499])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements in particular extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Many new features supported for the import of proprietary &#039;&#039;&#039;Affinity Designer&#039;&#039;&#039; files, such as:&lt;br /&gt;
** more complex vector masks (vector masks of vector masks, vector masks with transparency, multiple vector masks)&lt;br /&gt;
** linked and embedded images, including stroke on images&lt;br /&gt;
** less nested groups, more natural editing of imported objects&lt;br /&gt;
** read additional shapes: Pie, Ring, Polygon (incl. curvature), Cloud, Double star, Square star,  Star (rounded tips, curved sides), Crescent, Segment, Heart, Tear&lt;br /&gt;
** Invert adjustment&lt;br /&gt;
** Symbols&lt;br /&gt;
* Various improvements to the &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF12 export&#039;&#039;&#039;: Colors are now included when saving DXF12 files (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/669 extensions!669]) and DXF12 output now supports closed paths (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/673 extensions!673]).&lt;br /&gt;
* When loading &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF&#039;&#039;&#039; files, Inkscape will preserve color in POLYLINE objects. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/672 extensions!672])&lt;br /&gt;
* The &#039;&#039;&#039;Printing Marks&#039;&#039;&#039; extension now supports negative bleed values. It&#039;s useful to specify negative bleed when for example importing an image into inkscape that&#039;s prepared with some bleed margin in mind, but without printing marks. You can then specify negative bleed margin so it &amp;quot;cuts in&amp;quot; into the imported image, reflecting its intended bleed margin. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/666 extensions!666])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The &#039;&#039;&#039;typst formula&#039;&#039;&#039; extension was updated to work better with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;typst&amp;gt;=0.12&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/659 extensions!659])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements and fixes for all extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;text-decoration&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; CSS shorthand is now correctly parsed (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/657 extensions!657]) &lt;br /&gt;
* Fixed a problem with argument parsing on Python 3.14 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/668 extensions!668]) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Extension Development====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Added documentation on how to set the icon of an extension in the extension gallery (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/660 extensions!660])&lt;br /&gt;
* 3rd-party extension authors can now use inkex&#039;s type information more easily (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/674 extensions!674])&lt;br /&gt;
* inkex now works with Numpy 2 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/661 extensions!661])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Command Line===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Shell --export-page=all now correctly exports all pages ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4850 Bug #4850], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6833 MR #6833])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Linux-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Printing from Snap Package no longer crashes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1734 Bug #1734],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6947 MR #6947]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Export dialog behaves properly (Snap version) ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3648 Bug #3648], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4015 Bug #4015], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6893 MR #6893]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Drag and Drop in the Layers dialog no longer stops working after the first time [KDE Wayland] ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5182 Bug #5182], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/7030 MR #7030])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Windows-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Scrolling through fonts with certain fonts installed no longer crashes Inkscape ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4224 Bug inkscape#4224], [https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/-/merge_requests/794 Pango MR #794]).&lt;br /&gt;
* The Windows MSI Installer has been upgraded to WiX v4, fixing several issues ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1617 Bug #1617], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1618 Bug #1618], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4679, Bug #4679], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6582 MR #6582], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6576 MR #6576]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Page size can now be edited without freezes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5391 Bug #5391],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6824 MR #6824]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Selecting large image files using the filepicker no longer crashes inkscape ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/11741 Bug #11741], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6988 MR #6988])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== MacOS-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Inkscape doesn&#039;t crash when preferences is invoked after closing window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5484 Bug #5484],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6943 MR #6943]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Improvements for development / deployment / testing===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Failing &#039;&#039;&#039;snap package&#039;&#039;&#039; builds have been fixed ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6819 MR #6819])&lt;br /&gt;

== Release highlights ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Tagged without an official release due to blocking bugs. Superseded by [[Release_notes/1.4.2 | Inkscape 1.4.2]]&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes and Bug Fixes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inkscape 1.4.1 is a &#039;&#039;&#039;maintenance and bugfix release&#039;&#039;&#039;, which brings you fixes for many critical or irritating bugs, and even two new features.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most important fixes and changes in this release are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* a new splash screen, providing a visual cue while Inkscape loads in the background&lt;br /&gt;
* improved Affinity Designer files (.afdesign) import&lt;br /&gt;
* more than &#039;&#039;&#039;X crash/freeze fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;, many of which affected PDF import&lt;br /&gt;
* improvements to boolean operations&lt;br /&gt;
* and almost &#039;&#039;&#039;Y more bug fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General User Interface ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Some toolbars now have more collapsible groups, allowing Inkscape to fit on 720p screens ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4987 Bug #4987], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6910 MR #6910], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6707, MR #6707]).&lt;br /&gt;
* A new splash screen has been added, letting users know that Inkscape is loading. This can be turned off in &#039;&#039;Preference &amp;gt; Interface &amp;gt; Windows &amp;gt; Miscellaneous&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Closing the welcome dialog does not create a new Window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/6746 Bug #6746],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6584, MR #6584]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Status bar hint for guides has been updated to show effect of double clicking on guide ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6772 MR #6772]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Moving with arrow keys works as expected for non integer values of nudge ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5308 Bug #5308],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6830 MR #6830]).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==== Export Dialog ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* Several crash fixes ([])&lt;br /&gt;

* Copy-Pasting clones of groups moved to a different layers now works ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5422 Bug #5422],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6921 MR #6921])&lt;br /&gt;
* Pasting doesn&#039;t open a new window if SVG import mode is set to &#039;new&#039; ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6929 MR #6929])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Import / Export ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Inkscape &#039;&#039;&#039;no longer crashes&#039;&#039;&#039; when &#039;&#039;&#039;importing a PDF file&#039;&#039;&#039; with &#039;&#039;&#039;Type-3/Bitmap Colored fonts&#039;&#039;&#039; ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5235 Bug #5235], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6811 MR #6811]).&lt;br /&gt;
* PDF import handles consecutive clippings properly ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4135 Bug #4135],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6912 MR #6912]).&lt;br /&gt;
* The new PDF importer now handles character and word spacing in text properly ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5367 Bug #5367], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6828 MR #6828]).&lt;br /&gt;

* Documents with links no longer fail to export under non-English locales ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5354 Bug #5354],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6816 MR #6816]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Invalid URIs do not lead to crashes on export ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5249 Bug #5249],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6856 MR #6856]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Inkscape defaults to SVG and not WMF if no extension if provided ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5490 Bug #5490],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6952 MR #6952])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Path Operations ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Boolean operations now respect fill-rule even if it is specified as a separate attribute ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5437 Bug #5437],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6876 MR #6876]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Better division for paths containing arcs (circles and ellipses, for example) [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/2875 Bug #2875],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152].&lt;br /&gt;
* Shape builder no longer deforms circles that intersect with other shapes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4453 Bug #4453],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Intersection on circles produces better result ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3543 Bug #3543],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Live Path Effects ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Boolean LPE: Difference mode can now handle holes properly ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3265 Bug #3265],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152])&lt;br /&gt;
* Mirror paths LPE can now handle Multipage documents ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5321 Bug #5321],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3648 Bug #3648],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6817 MR #6817])&lt;br /&gt;
* Missing parameters in Perspective LPE have been restored ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5297 Bug #5297], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6759 MR #6759])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Extensions ===&lt;br /&gt;
====New extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Initial support for import of &#039;&#039;&#039;Vectornator / Linearity Curve&#039;&#039;&#039; files. The import extensions is under active development. Please report all issues you encounter to [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extras/extension-curve the repository of the subproject].&lt;br /&gt;
* An extension to &#039;&#039;&#039;Clean up paths&#039;&#039;&#039; was added. The extension removes duplicate nodes and nodes closer than a given threshold. There is also an option to close paths and join subpaths if the nodes are separated by less than given thresholds. The extension can be found in &#039;&#039;&#039;Modify Path -&amp;gt; Clean up path&#039;&#039;&#039;. Try it out! (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/499 extensions!499])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements in particular extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Many new features supported for the import of proprietary &#039;&#039;&#039;Affinity Designer&#039;&#039;&#039; files, such as:&lt;br /&gt;
** more complex vector masks (vector masks of vector masks, vector masks with transparency, multiple vector masks)&lt;br /&gt;
** linked and embedded images, including stroke on images&lt;br /&gt;
** less nested groups, more natural editing of imported objects&lt;br /&gt;
** read additional shapes: Pie, Ring, Polygon (incl. curvature), Cloud, Double star, Square star,  Star (rounded tips, curved sides), Crescent, Segment, Heart, Tear&lt;br /&gt;
** Invert adjustment&lt;br /&gt;
** Symbols&lt;br /&gt;
* Various improvements to the &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF12 export&#039;&#039;&#039;: Colors are now included when saving DXF12 files (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/669 extensions!669]) and DXF12 output now supports closed paths (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/673 extensions!673]).&lt;br /&gt;
* When loading &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF&#039;&#039;&#039; files, Inkscape will preserve color in POLYLINE objects. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/672 extensions!672])&lt;br /&gt;
* The &#039;&#039;&#039;Printing Marks&#039;&#039;&#039; extension now supports negative bleed values. It&#039;s useful to specify negative bleed when for example importing an image into inkscape that&#039;s prepared with some bleed margin in mind, but without printing marks. You can then specify negative bleed margin so it &amp;quot;cuts in&amp;quot; into the imported image, reflecting its intended bleed margin. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/666 extensions!666])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The &#039;&#039;&#039;typst formula&#039;&#039;&#039; extension was updated to work better with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;typst&amp;gt;=0.12&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/659 extensions!659])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements and fixes for all extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;text-decoration&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; CSS shorthand is now correctly parsed (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/657 extensions!657]) &lt;br /&gt;
* Fixed a problem with argument parsing on Python 3.14 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/668 extensions!668]) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Extension Development====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Added documentation on how to set the icon of an extension in the extension gallery (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/660 extensions!660])&lt;br /&gt;
* 3rd-party extension authors can now use inkex&#039;s type information more easily (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/674 extensions!674])&lt;br /&gt;
* inkex now works with Numpy 2 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/661 extensions!661])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Command Line===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Shell --export-page=all now correctly exports all pages ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4850 Bug #4850], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6833 MR #6833])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Linux-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Printing from Snap Package no longer crashes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1734 Bug #1734],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6947 MR #6947]).&lt;br /&gt;
*Export dialog behaves properly (Snap version) ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3648 Bug #3648], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4015 Bug #4015], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6893 MR #6893]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Windows-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Scrolling through fonts with certain fonts installed no longer crashes Inkscape ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4224 Bug inkscape#4224], [https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/-/merge_requests/794 Pango MR #794]).&lt;br /&gt;
*The Windows MSI Installer has been upgraded to WiX v4, fixing several issues ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1617 Bug #1617], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1618 Bug #1618], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4679, Bug #4679], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6582 MR #6582], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6576 MR #6576]).&lt;br /&gt;
*Page size can now be edited without freezes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5391 Bug #5391],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6824 MR #6824]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

== Release highlights ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Tagged without an official release due to blocking bugs.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes and Bug Fixes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inkscape 1.4.2 is a &#039;&#039;&#039;maintenance and bugfix release&#039;&#039;&#039;, which brings you fixes for many critical or irritating bugs, and even two new features.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most important fixes and changes in this release are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* a new splash screen, providing a visual cue while Inkscape loads in the background&lt;br /&gt;
* greatly improved Affinity Designer files (.afdesign) import&lt;br /&gt;
* more than &#039;&#039;&#039;X crash/freeze fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;, many of which affected PDF import&lt;br /&gt;
* improvements to boolean operations&lt;br /&gt;
* and almost &#039;&#039;&#039;Y more bug fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General User Interface ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Some toolbars now have more collapsible groups, allowing Inkscape to fit on 720p screens ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4987 Bug #4987], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6910 MR #6910], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6707, MR #6707]).&lt;br /&gt;
* A new splash screen has been added, letting users know that Inkscape is loading. This can be turned off in &#039;&#039;Preference &amp;gt; Interface &amp;gt; Windows &amp;gt; Miscellaneous&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Closing the welcome dialog does not create a new Window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/6746 Bug #6746],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6584, MR #6584]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Status bar hint for guides has been updated to show effect of double clicking on guide ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6772 MR #6772]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Moving with arrow keys works as expected for non integer values of nudge ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5308 Bug #5308],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6830 MR #6830]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Modular grid now renders with inverted y axis ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6917 MR #6917]).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==== Export Dialog ====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* Copy-Pasting clones of groups moved to a different layers now works ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5422 Bug #5422],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6921 MR #6921])&lt;br /&gt;
* Pasting doesn&#039;t open a new window if SVG import mode is set to &#039;new&#039; ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6929 MR #6929])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Import / Export ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Inkscape &#039;&#039;&#039;no longer crashes&#039;&#039;&#039; when &#039;&#039;&#039;importing a PDF file&#039;&#039;&#039; with &#039;&#039;&#039;Type-3/Bitmap Colored fonts&#039;&#039;&#039; ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5235 Bug #5235], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6811 MR #6811]).&lt;br /&gt;
* PDF import handles consecutive clippings properly ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4135 Bug #4135],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6912 MR #6912]).&lt;br /&gt;

* Documents with links no longer fail to export under non-English locales ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5354 Bug #5354],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6816 MR #6816]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Invalid URIs do not lead to crashes on export ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5249 Bug #5249],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6856 MR #6856]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Inkscape defaults to SVG and not WMF if no extension if provided ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5490 Bug #5490],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6952 MR #6952])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Path Operations ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Boolean operations now respect fill-rule even if it is specified as a separate attribute ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5437 Bug #5437],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6876 MR #6876]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Better division for paths containing arcs (circles and ellipses, for example) [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/2875 Bug #2875],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152].&lt;br /&gt;
* Shape builder no longer deforms circles that intersect with other shapes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4453 Bug #4453],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Intersection on circles produces better result ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3543 Bug #3543],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Live Path Effects ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Boolean LPE: Difference mode can now handle holes properly ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3265 Bug #3265],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6152 MR #6152])&lt;br /&gt;
* Mirror paths LPE can now handle Multipage documents ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5321 Bug #5321],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3648 Bug #3648],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6817 MR #6817])&lt;br /&gt;
* Missing parameters in Perspective LPE have been restored ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5297 Bug #5297], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6759 MR #6759])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Extensions ===&lt;br /&gt;
====New extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Initial support for import of &#039;&#039;&#039;Vectornator / Linearity Curve&#039;&#039;&#039; files. The import extensions is under active development. Please report all issues you encounter to [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extras/extension-curve the repository of the subproject].&lt;br /&gt;
* An extension to &#039;&#039;&#039;Clean up paths&#039;&#039;&#039; was added. The extension removes duplicate nodes and nodes closer than a given threshold. There is also an option to close paths and join subpaths if the nodes are separated by less than given thresholds. The extension can be found in &#039;&#039;&#039;Modify Path -&amp;gt; Clean up path&#039;&#039;&#039;. Try it out! (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/499 extensions!499])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements in particular extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Many new features supported for the import of proprietary &#039;&#039;&#039;Affinity Designer&#039;&#039;&#039; files, such as:&lt;br /&gt;
** more complex vector masks (vector masks of vector masks, vector masks with transparency, multiple vector masks)&lt;br /&gt;
** linked and embedded images, including stroke on images&lt;br /&gt;
** less nested groups, more natural editing of imported objects&lt;br /&gt;
** read additional shapes: Pie, Ring, Polygon (incl. curvature), Cloud, Double star, Square star,  Star (rounded tips, curved sides), Crescent, Segment, Heart, Tear&lt;br /&gt;
** Invert adjustment&lt;br /&gt;
** Symbols&lt;br /&gt;
* Various improvements to the &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF12 export&#039;&#039;&#039;: Colors are now included when saving DXF12 files (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/669 extensions!669]) and DXF12 output now supports closed paths (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/673 extensions!673]).&lt;br /&gt;
* When loading &#039;&#039;&#039;DXF&#039;&#039;&#039; files, Inkscape will preserve color in POLYLINE objects. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/672 extensions!672])&lt;br /&gt;
* The &#039;&#039;&#039;Printing Marks&#039;&#039;&#039; extension now supports negative bleed values. It&#039;s useful to specify negative bleed when for example importing an image into inkscape that&#039;s prepared with some bleed margin in mind, but without printing marks. You can then specify negative bleed margin so it &amp;quot;cuts in&amp;quot; into the imported image, reflecting its intended bleed margin. (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/666 extensions!666])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The &#039;&#039;&#039;typst formula&#039;&#039;&#039; extension was updated to work better with &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;typst&amp;gt;=0.12&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/659 extensions!659])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Improvements and fixes for all extensions====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* The &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;text-decoration&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; CSS shorthand is now correctly parsed (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/657 extensions!657]) &lt;br /&gt;
* Fixed a problem with argument parsing on Python 3.14 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/668 extensions!668]) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
====Extension Development====&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Added documentation on how to set the icon of an extension in the extension gallery (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/660 extensions!660])&lt;br /&gt;
* 3rd-party extension authors can now use inkex&#039;s type information more easily (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/674 extensions!674])&lt;br /&gt;
* inkex now works with Numpy 2 (MR [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/extensions/-/merge_requests/661 extensions!661])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Command Line===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Shell --export-page=all now correctly exports all pages ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4850 Bug #4850], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6833 MR #6833])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Linux-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Printing from Snap Package no longer crashes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1734 Bug #1734],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6947 MR #6947]).&lt;br /&gt;
*Export dialog behaves properly (Snap version) ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/3648 Bug #3648], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4015 Bug #4015], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6893 MR #6893]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Windows-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Scrolling through fonts with certain fonts installed no longer crashes Inkscape ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4224 Bug inkscape#4224], [https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/-/merge_requests/794 Pango MR #794]).&lt;br /&gt;
*The Windows MSI Installer has been upgraded to WiX v4, fixing several issues ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1617 Bug #1617], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/1618 Bug #1618], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4679, Bug #4679], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6582 MR #6582], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6576 MR #6576]).&lt;br /&gt;
*Page size can now be edited without freezes ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5391 Bug #5391],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6824 MR #6824]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===macOS-specific Fixes===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Inkscape doesn&#039;t crash when preferences is invoked after closing window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5484 Bug #5484],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6943 MR #6943]).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Improvements for development / deployment / testing===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Failing &#039;&#039;&#039;snap package&#039;&#039;&#039; builds have been fixed ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6819 MR #6819])&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes and Bug Fixes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inkscape 1.4.1 is a &#039;&#039;&#039;maintenance and bugfix release&#039;&#039;&#039;, which brings you fixes for many critical or irritating bugs, and even two new features.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most important fixes and changes in this release are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* a new splash screen, providing a visual cue while Inkscape loads in the background&lt;br /&gt;
* greatly improved Affinity Designer files (.afdesign) import&lt;br /&gt;
* more than &#039;&#039;&#039;X crash/freeze fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;, many of which affected PDF import&lt;br /&gt;
* improvements to boolean operations&lt;br /&gt;
* and almost &#039;&#039;&#039;Y more bug fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Definitely not released yet.&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Changes and Bug Fixes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inkscape 1.4.1 is a &#039;&#039;&#039;maintenance and bugfix release&#039;&#039;&#039;, which brings you fixes for many critical or irritating bugs, and even two new features.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most important fixes and changes in this release are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* a new splash screen, providing a visual cue while Inkscape loads in the background&lt;br /&gt;
* greatly improved Affinity Designer files (.afdesign) import&lt;br /&gt;
* more than &#039;&#039;&#039;X crash/freeze fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;, many of which affected PDF import&lt;br /&gt;
* improvements to boolean operations&lt;br /&gt;
* and almost &#039;&#039;&#039;Y more bug fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General User Interface ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Some toolbars now have more collapsible groups, allowing Inkscape to fit on 720p screens ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4987 Bug #4987], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6910 MR #6910], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6707, MR #6707]).&lt;br /&gt;
* A new splash screen has been added, letting users know that Inkscape is loading. This can be turned off in &#039;&#039;Preference &amp;gt; Interface &amp;gt; Windows &amp;gt; Miscellaneous&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Closing the welcome dialog does not create a new Window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/6746 Bug #6746],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6584, MR #6584]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Status bar hint for guides has been updated to show effect of double clicking on guide ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6772 MR #6772]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Moving with arrow keys works as expected for non integer values of nudge ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5308 Bug #5308],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6830 MR #6830]).&lt;br /&gt;

Inkscape 1.4.1 is a &#039;&#039;&#039;maintenance and bugfix release&#039;&#039;&#039;, which brings you fixes for many critical or irritating bugs, and even two new features.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The most important fixes and changes in this release are:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* a new splash screen, providing a visual cue while Inkscape loads in the background&lt;br /&gt;
* greatly improved Affinity Designer files (.afdesign) import&lt;br /&gt;
* more than &#039;&#039;&#039;X crash/freeze fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;, many of which affected PDF import&lt;br /&gt;
* improvements to boolean operations&lt;br /&gt;
* and almost &#039;&#039;&#039;Y more bug fixes&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== General User Interface ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Some toolbars now have more collapsible groups, allowing Inkscape to fit on 720p screens ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/4987 Bug #4987], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6910 MR #6910], [https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6707, MR #6707]).&lt;br /&gt;
* A new splash screen has been added, letting users know that Inkscape is loading. This can be turned off in &#039;&#039;Preference &amp;gt; Interface &amp;gt; Windows &amp;gt; Miscellaneous&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
* Closing the welcome dialog does not create a new Window ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inbox/-/issues/6746 Bug #6746],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6584, MR #6584]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Status bar hint for guides has been updated to show effect of double clicking on guide ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6772 MR #6772]).&lt;br /&gt;
* Moving with arrow keys works as expected for non integer values of nudge ([https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/issues/5308 Bug #5308],[https://gitlab.com/inkscape/inkscape/-/merge_requests/6830 MR #6830]).&lt;br /&gt;
