New Features

This release introduces Multi-page Composites, which are layered images that have pages. It also includes additional templates to support template-centric workflow, a new Layer Blend Mode (Inverse Luma Mask), horizon detection in Rotate Transform, cropping option when importing video and orientation options in QR Code Generator plug-in. Long-standing angle ambiguities (CCW versus CW) has also been resolved.

Internal Improvements

This release features an improved graphics engine (JpDRAW2™ v26.05), improved CD5 codec (v4.10, improved ACSC compression), improved interpolation when downsizing images, improved motion detection in Video Capture and slightly lower memory usage (RAM is getting expensive!).

File Support and Bug Fixes

PXZ file support now includes placeholders (Pixlr “frames”) and blanks, with full template functionality for the placeholders. A memory leak in flt_JPEG.dll been fixed.
