General Forums Latest News
#1

V23 expands on its already broad and deep feature set for image editing, vector editing, and print.

Vector improvements

  • mesh gradients
  • customizable pattern colours that override the default colours
  • more flexible vector clipping masks (a big one for me personally)
  • expanded precision numerical positioning of vector points
  • various other quality of life enhancements

Image Editing Improvements

  • Focus stacking is now possible
  • Stitching (finally!)

Animation

  • new animation panel to control animation parameters per frame
  • Animated PNG and animated WebP import and export (This one is HUGE because no other general purpose image editor supports this! Krita 5 beta does - see below)

File import & export

  • PDF/X-4 and PDF/A with optional CMYK conversion
  • PDF/A-1b and PDF/A-2u for long-term archiving of digital documents
  • non-coloured pattern import, editing, and export (PDF)
  • PDF mesh gradients are supported in PDF import and export
  • SVG mesh gradients are supported in SVG import and export
  • JPEG XL
  • FITS and SER import (used in astronomy photography)

And many MANY smaller improvements as well as GUI improvements

You mean APNG and animated WebP import?

I did a bit of research, and Krita 5 beta indeed does now import and export both animated formats as well via FFMpeg - which I was unaware of, because I was still running the 4.x release. That is awesome, though! Very impressed by that.

ClipStudio exports to APNG, but I could not discover a way to import APNG files.

And WebP is not supported at all by ClipStudio, unless you happen to know that it is?
