- Sliders: Under Windows the sliders are now drawn by PhotoLine and look better
- Adjustment Layer dialog: On Windows, the scrollbar is only displayed when needed
- Screen output: Rotated 1-bit images are displayed better when reduced in size
- Docked dialogs
- Miscellaneous
- Path groups: Now also support distortions
- Scripting

Bug fixes:
- Batch Rename: Text field was multiline
- Layer List, search: Search was reactivated automatically when the search field lost input focus

- Color Picker: Automatiic size unified
- Layer > New Layer, placeholder: Placeholders always got the size 0
- Paint tool, gray pattern, RGB image: Image was not filled correctly
- Shape list, loading: Complex shapes may not have been loaded
- Open dialog, Windows: If the predefined path was invalid (e.g. a Unix path), the dialog was not opened
- Convert Layer Type: Dithering could not be turned off when converting from 32-/16-bit to 8-bit
- Color Lookup: 1D (gamma only) Cube LUTs did not work with 8-bit images
- Text layers, underline behind text: Selection area may have been invisible
- Printing: Complex line styles were printed via the OS, even if it did not support them
- Lens Correction, Lensfun: For lenses with the same name the wrong lens could be selected in the dialog
- Lens correction, Nikon: Sometimes the correct lens was not found
- Gradient tool: changing the blend mode, channels or intensity did not rebuild an existing gradient
- PDF export: Colorless pixel patterns are now exported as 1-bit
- PDFexport, fonts, macOS 11/10.16: due to a macOS error sometimes single font tables (GDEF) couldn't be read
- PDF import, vector pattern: The step size of the pattern is used as pattern size
- PDF import, vector pattern: A clipping layer is inserted into the pattern if necessary
- Free Lasso and Magnetic Lasso, Backspace, Windows: The backspace key deleted the last two lasso segments instead of only one
- Pattern List, Vector Pattern From Document: The new pattern was not correctly inserted into the list
- Browse, raw images: The thumbnails were saved too large, so switching to a raw directory was very slow
