Subject: [Inkscape-devel] Inkscape 0.92.4 bugfix release<br>
<br>
<br>
Inkscape has launched version 0.92.4 with increased stability. This<br>
update delivers some notable performance improvements for filter<br>
rendering, saving and moving paths (with a live path effect), and the<br>
measure tool.<br>
<br>
Download Inkscape 0.92.4 packages here:<br>

<a href="https://inkscape.org/release/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://inkscape.org/release/</a><br>
<br>
<br>
The key improvements in this version will enable Inkscape users to do or<br>
experience the following:<br>
<br>
* Align multiple objects as a group relative to a single object<br>
* Write image data to standard output<br>
* Experience extensions working faster within complex documents<br>
* See improved speed when deselecting a path with many nodes<br>
* Ungroup text elements won’t result in changed font size of children<br>
* Able to print and / or print correct paper size with printers<br>
(especially Canon, EPSON, Konica Minolta) <br>
* See improved performance of the measure tool when grids are visible<br>
* See proper opacity of partially transparent embedded bitmap images in<br>
PDF export<br>
* Able to Shift/Ctrl-click on control handles of shapes without crashing<br>
* Build Inkscape with up-to-date poppler library 0.72.0 – useful for<br>
Mac users building with Homebrew <br>
<br>
<br>
Translation and documentation updates<br>
-------------------------------------<br>
The Icelandic and Brazilian Portuguese user interface (UI) translations<br>
have been updated. Inkscape’s Ukranian and Hungarian documentation<br>
translations have also been revised in this version.<br>
<br>

Inkscape alpha version 1.0 seeking testers<br>
------------------------------------------<br>
As the project advances towards an alpha release of version 1.0, the<br>
Inkscape teams are seeking developers interested in testing the alpha<br>
ahead of release.<br>
<br>
Download 1.0 alpha at:<br>
<br>

<br>
Watch Inkscape.org <a href="https://inkscape.org/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://inkscape.org/</a> and social media channels for<br>
the latest details on the progress of the 1.0 development work.<br>
<br>
<br>
Mac OS: Inkscape needs your help<br>
--------------------------------<br>
As few Inkscape volunteer developers use Mac, the project needs someone<br>
who knows how to automatically package a .dmg file, to enable Mac users<br>
to test the alpha version, along with Mac equipment to run continuous<br>
integration jobs.<br>
<br>
If you're interested in working on this, please introduce yourself on<br>
one of our discussion channels, and keep an eye out for other Mac<br>
volunteers to work with on this important task.<br>
