Kritas månadsuppdatering - utgåva 33
Välkommen till utvecklings- och gemenskapsuppdateringen för november 2025.
Utvecklingsrapport
5.2.14 utgiven
One last bugfix release in the 5.2 series, 5.2.14 is out. This version once again features many fixes for Android and touch input, but that's not all! The Color Sampler's preview has a new round default look, and macOS users can now view .kra thumbnails in Finder again. Read more in the dedicated blogpost and stay up up-to-date.
Framsteg i omarbetningen av text
Development of 5.3.0 is now in feature freeze, meaning no more features will be added before release. This includes the Text Tool, marking the end of a long phase of development for Wolthera, code reviewer Dmitry, and everyone else who contributed.
Texts can now be created to fit within a shape or along a path, just by clicking the vector with the Text Tool. (MR!2432)
Text properties have been split into into Paragraph and Character tabs, making it clearer which level the properties are taking effect at. (MR!2470)
Carsten has also made sure the Text Tool works properly with touch input. (MR!2563)
But this journey's not over; if you use 5.3 pre-release builds, make sure to report bugs and leave feedback in the Text Tool Thread!
Nytt redigeringsverktyg för seriepanel
There's a new tool in the Toolbox: the Comic Panel Editing Tool. Agata designed this for creating comic panel gutters by cutting gaps in vector shapes. (MR!2331)
It can be set to cut different gap widths depending on whether the cut is horizontal, vertical, or diagonal past a certain angle. A second mode in Tool Options removes the gaps for easy re-adjustment.
Liquify Transform Speedup
The Transform Tool's Liquify mode has had some optimizations done by Agata. It's especially faster on large canvases, because it now avoids calculating outside the affected area. (MR!4261)

Python Updated to 3.13
Krita's unstable builds have been updated from Python 3.10 to Python 3.13 (MR!2466). This has the potential to break plugins and scripts, so users of Krita Next should report any such issues to the developers of those plugins before 5.3.0's release.
If you're a plugin developer, check out the release notes for Python 3.11, Python 3.12, and Python 3.13 for information on the changes.

Andra nämnvärda ändringar
Andra nämnvärda ändringar i Kritas utvecklingsbyggen från 11 november, 2025 - 14 december, 2025.
Stabil gren (5.2.14):
- Canvas Input: Add a One Finger Hold gesture and set it by default to Sample Foreground Color From Merged Image. (Change, by Carsten Hartenfels)
- Color Sampler: The Color Sampler preview now defaults to a circle to be more visible when using touch input. The size of the circle can be adjusted under Settings->General->Cursor, or changed back to rectangles. (bug report) (Change, by Carsten Hartenfels)
- Layers Docker: Dragging-and-dropping a layer onto its own canvas now pastes a copy only if Ctrl is held, to prevent duplicating it by accident. Dropping a layer onto a different canvas still copy-pastes it as before, without holding Ctrl. (bug report Change, by Carsten Hartenfels)
- Filter Layers: Fix empty histogram when adding a new Levels, Threshold, Color Adjustment, or Cross-channel Filter Layer. (bug report) (Change, by Stuffins)
- Scripting: Fix Node.setChildNodes function to remove existing child nodes. (Change, by Stuffins)
- Android: Lessen the chance for saving corrupt files, by using a temporary file. (bug report Change, by Carsten Hartenfels)
