Krita 4.2.5 Released
Published 2nd August, 2019
We found that Krita 4.2.4 still had a bug handling shortcuts when certain tools were active. We’ve worked hard to fix that bug as quickly as possible, and as a consequence, we’re releasing Krita 4.2.5 today. Everyone is urged to update to this new release.
Bugs Fixed
- Fix an assert in the transform tool when working with a tablet and touch
- Fix continued transformation in the transform tool
- Fix updates in the transform tool
- Show the publication time in the welcome page news ticker in the user’s preferred short date/time format
- Fix using the tangent-normal brush when the canvas is rotated or mirrored (BUG:404408)
- Make it possible again to create new palettes and save them in the resource folder, instead of the current document (BUG:410137)
- Make Krita not gobble up all available memory when loading a JPG file with specific metadata (BUG:410242)
- Constrain assistant editors to the viewport, so they can always be manipulated
- Make sure Krita stores changes to brush presets in the current session by default (BUG:410463)
