We are proud to announce the new release of Synfig Studio. This version brings you some new features and bugfixes - read the main highlights below. For the detailed list of changes please refer to the NEWS files in the source code.

Outline Grow Parameter

This version introduces a way to easily change the width for many outlines at once.

The Paste Canvas layer now have the new "Outline Grow" parameter which allows to control thickness of all outline layers inside. Assigning positive value to this parameter makes all child outlines rendered thicker, while negative value makes them look thinner. This feature is very helpful for tuning outlines in complex artwork and it also allows to achieve some nice effects like constant outline width at any zoom level.

Note: The "Outline Grow" parameter can not be applied to exported and imported (external) Paste Canvases.

Preview Window

In this version the Preview Window got its improvements again. Here's the list of changes:

• Artwork content can be zoomed in/out. Zoom widget allows user to change zoom factor from a dropdown list or type the a specified value.
• Toolbar can be hidden to have a simpler UI.
• A set of accelerator keys (hard-coded at the moment):
• a - prev frame, s - play/pause, d - next frame;
• h - show/hide toolbar;
• 1,2,3,4,5 mapped to zoom factors: 25%, 50%, 100%, 200%, Fit
