Reduced the loading speed and memory usage of color adjustment, effect, and layer style data. Pixelmator Pro Automator actions are now up to 5x faster when processing large amounts of images. This update includes fixes for a number of related color management issues, including: Numerical RGB values in the Colors window changing in different color spaces.

Issues with keeping the colors of Styles and Effects in sync with the document color space. Keeping all letters in the same color space when editing text layers. Correctly matching colors when pasting layers from documents in different color spaces.

Changing the Resolution value in the Image Size dialog will now change the pixel size of an image under all circumstances, rather than only with print units selected. Using the painting and retouching tools as a scrolling action was ending would not be possible, now these tools will start working as soon as scrolling stops, no matter when the painting action was started. Duplicating a selected part of a layer with nondestructive effects applied to it would cause Pixelmator Pro to stop responding.

After changing the size of an image or using ML Super Resolution , the visible part of the canvas will be preserved. The maximum range of the Sharpen color adjustment has been extended to pixels. Because it was prone to causing confusion, resizing images using the Bilinear algorithm will be destructive, just like the other algorithms are.

After upscaling images using ML Super Resolution, certain pixels would become very slightly transparent. The Add Sketch command would create a new document rather than insert the sketch into the existing document. Selecting part of an image, deleting the selected area, undoing the edits, and repeating the same steps again would result in the layer disappearing.

Release a clipping mask by double-clicking the arrow in the Layers sidebar. When opening Photoshop documents with color tags, they will now be both opened and saved. Convert into Pixels is now a fully-fledged rasterize button and will rasterize any layer, including image layers with adjustments, effects, layer styles, and transformations.

When converting hidden layers into pixels, they will no longer be rasterized into empty layers. Double-clicking any shape — including Smart Shapes — will now make it editable. Exporting documents with layer styles in effects in Photoshop format has been much improved. Fixed several blur issues with converting certain kinds of layers groups and shapes with effects into pixels. Copying and pasting selected content would sometimes result in blurring.

On rare occasions, resizing the crop box while holding the Command key would blur the image or leave 1 pixel-wide lines at its edges. Documents containing many layers with lots of nondestructive styles and effects would sometimes have unwanted vertical and horizontal artifacts. Pixelmator Pro will now always use tabs by default and remember your window size and position for all new documents.

Whenever possible, Pixelmator Pro will try to preserve the font face when changing font family. Improved compatibility with certain kinds of text layers in Photoshop documents. Pixelmator Pro was performing slowly in the latest version of macOS on certain , , and Mac computers. This version includes a workaround with a fix.

Due to new font smoothing introduced in macOS Holding the Z key to choose the Zoom tool would make Pixelmator Pro beep inappropriately. Layers would incorrectly snap to grids based on non-pixel units. New documents created from text or shape layers in the clipboard would not be correctly aligned to the canvas. After dragging to rearrange parts of text within a text layer, changes would be undone incorrectly. Pixelmator Pro workflows in the Automator app were not working correctly when RAW files would be automatically converted to Pixelmator Pro format using the Auto Enhance action.

With the incredible ML Match Colors, you can now match the colors of different images using breakthrough machine learning. The all-new Free Transform tool makes it a breeze to freely resize objects, adjust perspective, distort, skew, and rotate. When dragging and dropping objects into compositions, press and hold the Command key to automatically use ML Match Colors on the inserted object.

Transform layers using four different modes — Free, Skew, Distort, and Perspective. Choose from 3 unique algorithms — Bilinear, Lanczos, and Nearest Neighbor — when transforming individual layers and layer groups. The high-quality perspective transformation algorithms in Pixelmator Pro better preserve image detail compared with other image editors. Use the grid when transforming to guide your transformations or turn it off, if you prefer.

When transforming, press and hold the Command key and drag any handle to temporarily distort instead of resizing.
