Inkscape 1.0 release, the opensource Adobe Illustrator alternative is now available for download with some fixes and new features. This open-source graphics editor is available for Linux<\/a>, Windows<\/a>, and macOS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This new version now used GTK+3<\/a> for the user interface. Inkscape<\/a> now comes with HiDPI (high resolution) support and now delivers a smoother, higher performance experience on Linux and Windows, and better system integration (no more XQuartz!) on macOS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is a new reorganized toolbox, with a more logical order and many new and improved Live Path Effect (LPE) features. Freestyle drawing users can now mirror and rotate the canvas, and test out Xray and Split-view modes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The new PowerPencil mode of the Pencil tool provides pressure-dependent width and support for closed paths. With the new Inkscape you can now vectorize line drawings, too, in the new unified Trace Bitmap dialog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is now support for duplicate guides, corners and hairlines for technical drawing. Users can now export PDFs with clickable links and metadata.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are now new palettes and mesh gradients that work in the web browser, as well as the handy on-canvas alignment for objects. New templates for different screen sizes, margin guides and a colorful checkerboard background are now available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Inkscape 1.0 comes with an extension for creating interactive mockups to simulate user interaction with an app in the web browser for presentations to clients and usability testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Support for customizable themes, icons, fonts & UI is now available ranging from menus and toolbars to page sizes and custom font directories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With the changes to the extensions system, users will find that some older extensions will no longer work until the developers update them to the new Python 3 API.<\/p>\n\n\n\n For these features and more you can head on over to the official release notes here<\/a>. If you do not need to do that you can head on over to the Inkscape 1.0 release download page here and get your copy there<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Inkscape 1.0 release, the opensource Adobe Illustrator alternative is now available for download with some fixes and new features.
