In a blog post today, the Pixelmator team announced the release of Pixelmator Pro 1.7 Sequoia, featuring text on a path, canvas rotation and a new welcome screen.
Highlights of the new release include:
- Type on a Path: The the Circular Type, Path Type, and the Freeform Type tools quickly and easily create text layers on paths.
- Canvas Rotation: To rotate the canvas, use the standard rotate multi-touch gesture. On a tablet or with a mouse, you can also press and hold the Spacebar-R keyboard shortcut and drag your canvas to rotate it.
- New Welcome Screen: The new welcome screen makes it easier for new users to open and create images.
IMPROVEMENTS, FIXES
- Version 3 of the ML Super Resolution algorithm brings support for upscaling Raw files, a progress bar and even sharper results.
- The performance of the Clone tool has been improved.
- Converting a masked layer that has been transformed using the Transform tool into pixels would not work correctly. Fixed.
- Transforming group layers containing layers that have been recently masked would not work correctly. Fixed.
- On macOS 10.14 or later, memory usage would occasionally spike when working on large documents. Fixed.
- Graphical artifacts would sometimes appear when resizing or moving layers in certain situations. Fixed.
