: Built on .NET 7 , the app features a brand-new asynchronous, fully multithreaded rendering engine designed to scale with multi-core CPUs (up to 16+ cores).

: Enhanced canvas rendering uses gamma correction for mipmap generation and compositing, ensuring more consistent brightness and better antialiasing when zooming.

: Version 5.0 introduced long-awaited support for pressure sensitivity, making it compatible with modern pens and drawing tablets using Windows Ink.

: Almost all built-in adjustments and effects (like blurs and distortions) now run on the GPU, greatly increasing rendering speed and quality.
