Blender Foundation released Blender 4.5 as LTS version that introduce improvements in viewport with the help of Vulkan
Blender works closely with hardware manufacturers to ensure Vulkan performs as good as possible.
Drag & Drop
Import files by dragging and dropping them onto the Geometry Node Editor.
Grease Nodes
Grease Pencil creation with Geometry Nodes just got better, including added support for custom Node Tools.
Blender 4.5 LTS is noticeably faster thanks to performance improvements such as faster texture loading, quicker startup times and multi-threaded shader compilation.
UV Improvements
Previously limited to Edit Mode, UVs are now visible across all object modes in the Image Editor’s Mask and Paint views.
