New Update: Improved startup and some new features!

We're happy to release another update which, in addition to adding some features, fixing some potential crash-conditions and other tweaks, improves the startup and loading of files, so Krita Gemini should feel a little "snappier".

• New Splash, "Blooming" by Tyson Tan (on his DeviantArt gallery)

• Faster startup

• NEW: Selection overlay mask (toggle by clicking the icon at bottom-left)

• NEW: Can cancel running brush-stroke with "Esc"

• IMPROVED: Layer docker - better handling, icons and feedback

• IMPROVED: Advanced Color Selector - Shade Selector includes HSI and HSY

• IMPROVED: Line Tool - Pressure sensitive, live preview of brush, supports mirrors and sensors

• SHORTCUT: Hold V and paint to temporarily enable line tool, tap to toggle on/off

• New smoothing options available in Sketch mode

• UI: Improvements to grid editing tool

• UI: Modal Toolbar buttons now highlight in theme colour

• FIX: Rulers start with correct units

• FIX: Crash-condition in Blur Filter

• (plus some minor fixes and slightly better management of memory)
