==Inkscape 0.47==
'''(not released yet - [[AnnouncePlanning047]])'''


Inkscape 0.47 brings a host of important improvements all across the program:
* '''Timed autosave''': no more lost work
* '''Spiro splines''': an exciting new way to work with paths, fully supported in Pen, Pencil, and Node tools
* '''Auto smooth nodes''': a new type of node that keeps the path as smooth as possible as you move it or its neighbors
* New modes in '''Tweak tool''': pushing and jittering whole objects, scaling/rotating objects, deleting and duplicating using the "soft brush"
* Reworked, much more usable '''snapping system''' and a Snapping toolbar
* New '''path effects''', including sketch, hatching, envelope deformation; effects can be stacked and assigned to groups
* A huge collection of '''preset filters''' in the new Filters menu
* New cairo-based '''PS and EPS export''': improved quality, more features supported, fallback rasterization for filters and transparency
* '''Spell checker''' for text objects in a document
* Many '''new extensions''': restacking, calendar, printing marks, cartesian and polar grids, interpolating attributes
* '''Optimized SVG code''' options, now with their own Preferences page
* Many other improvements, usability tweaks, memleak stops, and misc bugfixes
==Refactoring effort==
The focus of the 0.47 release was to clean up legacy code and push forward the migration to clean object-oriented C++. The goal of this effort was to increase reliability and maintainability of Inkscape. In the long run, it will mean fewer bugs and more new features, because it will be easier to develop and find bugs in Inkscape.
