Release highlights

Not yet released

Inkscape 0.92.3 is a stability and bugfix release. For a complete list of bugs fixed in 0.92.3, see the Launchpad milestone page.

Improvements

Command line usage:

• support --export-area-drawing when exporting to SVG.
• support --export-area-page when using --export-id to export to SVG
• support --export-margin when exporting to SVG

Text tool:

• support for switching between RTL and LTR writing directions

Circle/ellipse/arc tool:

• add Rx/Ry (vertical/horizontal radius) fields to toolbar. (Bug #1181127)

PDF+LaTeX export:

• Add support for multiline text with basic support for line-spacing attribute (Bug #771959)
  Note: Currently only the line-spacing of the top level text element is considered, i.e. all lines in one text element share the same line spacing.
  Note: LaTeX is much more clever with respect to line spacing, so layout might not always be exactly the same as in Inkscape
  Note: Make sure to use a continuously scalable font in LaTeX, otherwise results might be unexpected.

Regression fixes

• Potentially missing command line output in Inkscape 0.92.2 on Windows 7. (Bug #1714278)
• Raster extensions relying on ImageMagick were broken in Inkscape 0.92.2 on Windows. (Bug #1716516)

• File extension was sometimes omitted when adding saved files to Windows' list of "recently used documents" resulting in unusable links ([1])
• Do not crash on systems with illegal fontconfig configuration. (Bug #1716516)
• Resolve issues when attempting to save files to non-existent directories. Could happen for shortcuts.xml (Bug #1719629) and when setting the autosave location manually.
