What’s New in Pixelmator Pro 1.0.1

This update adds several new localizations as well as a number of performance improvements and bug fixes.

• Pixelmator Pro now speaks French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, and Korean.
• A range of performance improvements speeds up moving layers, zooming, and opening images. Opening images is now up to 6 times faster in some cases.
• The Colors histogram now displays colors based on the total size of objects rather than the amount of pure color.
• Color adjustment previews are now much sharper.
• When saving an image while applying color adjustments to an active selection, the adjustments would be discarded. Fixed.
• The Magnetic Selection tool is now more precise.
• Improved selection smoothing when copying and pasting selections.
• Selections with transparent areas would sometimes be shifted when copying and pasting.
• The Select Color tool is now much faster when zooming.
• Layers would sometimes move slightly when selecting them using the Arrange, Text, or Shape tools. Fixed.
• Completely masked layer areas will no longer be automatically selected if they’re not visible in the image.
• Using the Style and other tools, it was possible to select hidden layers by clicking in the image. Now, you should only be able to select them in the Layers view.
• When using the Arrange tool with Auto Select turned off, you needed to drag inside a layer to move it. Now you can also drag outside the active layer to move it.
• Converting the bit depth of an image would not always work reliably. It does now.
• Changing the color profile of an image would sometimes not work. It does now.
• Undoing changes after resizing text layers would sometimes not work. Fixed.
• The Constrain Proportions option would sometimes be deselected for layers when saving a Pixelmator Pro document.
• The compression option would be ignored when exporting 16-bit TIFF images. 16-bit TIFF images will now be compressed.
• You can now choose to export images with 8-bit or 16-bit color depth.
• Horizontal lines would sometimes appear on Mac computers with Radeon graphics cards. Fixed.
• When exporting to JPEG, there was an option to save with 16-bit color depth. JPEG does not support that, so that option has been removed.
• When exporting to PNG, it was possible to choose CMYK as the color profile. PNG files do not support CMYK profiles, so this has been removed.
• Pixelmator Pro would sometimes quit unexpectedly when closing documents. Fixed
• When resetting all brush collections to default, these would sometimes not be updated in all files. Fixed.
• Many other improvements, including a number of crash fixes.
