Changing the Resolution value in the Image Size dialog will now change the pixel size of an image under all circumstances, rather than only with print units selected.

Using the painting and retouching tools as a scrolling action was ending would not be possible, now these tools will start working as soon as scrolling stops, no matter when the painting action was started.

Duplicating a selected part of a layer with nondestructive effects applied to it would cause Pixelmator Pro to stop responding. After changing the size of an image or using ML Super Resolution , the visible part of the canvas will be preserved.

The maximum range of the Sharpen color adjustment has been extended to pixels. Because it was prone to causing confusion, resizing images using the Bilinear algorithm will be destructive, just like the other algorithms are.

After upscaling images using ML Super Resolution, certain pixels would become very slightly transparent. The Add Sketch command would create a new document rather than insert the sketch into the existing document. Selecting part of an image, deleting the selected area, undoing the edits, and repeating the same steps again would result in the layer disappearing.

Release a clipping mask by double-clicking the arrow in the Layers sidebar. When opening Photoshop documents with color tags, they will now be both opened and saved. Convert into Pixels is now a fully-fledged rasterize button and will rasterize any layer, including image layers with adjustments, effects, layer styles, and transformations.

When converting hidden layers into pixels, they will no longer be rasterized into empty layers. Double-clicking any shape — including Smart Shapes — will now make it editable. Exporting documents with layer styles in effects in Photoshop format has been much improved.

Fixed several blur issues with converting certain kinds of layers groups and shapes with effects into pixels. Copying and pasting selected content would sometimes result in blurring. On rare occasions, resizing the crop box while holding the Command key would blur the image or leave 1 pixel-wide lines at its edges. Documents containing many layers with lots of nondestructive styles and effects would sometimes have unwanted vertical and horizontal artifacts.

Pixelmator Pro will now always use tabs by default and remember your window size and position for all new documents.

The maximum brush size has been increased from to pixels. You can now invert the brush Shape and Grain textures by clicking the word Shape or Grain below the preview and choosing Invert. Improved preset importing experience: after importing a collection of brushes, the new collection will become active, after importing some custom shapes, the Shapes palette will become visible, after importing effect or adjustment presets, the Effects and Color Adjustments tools will become active.

Brush previews will now be generated without slowing down the interface, which should speed up importing collections of large brushes. When opening images from Aperture, Pixelmator Pro will now attempt to save changes back to the original image. The Color Adjustments and Effects tools will now be opened more quickly.

Hovering over a gradient color stop and color midpoint will now show its position. Adjusting character spacing while having the insertion point between two characters will now change the spacing between those two characters. The look of the text selection background color in macOS Mojave has been improved. The thumbnails of small layers are now more accurate in the Layers sidebar and Presets bar. When selecting an empty layer while the Color Adjustments or Effects tool is active, thumbnails in the Touch Bar would not update correctly.

Latest comparisons. Compared: M2 iPad Pro vs. The speed is unusable. I find the interface unintuitive adding effects is just bizarre. Pixelmator is a fun app to use PMP is the complete opposite experience.

More importantly, how much longer will Pixelmator be supported? I’m concerned about needing to find a different solution. Wed Dec 11, pm As of the last beta now the newest update I’m not getting the spinning ball I probably just jinxed it.

In my opinion, the GUI is less intuitive than the Classic Pixelmator, so that’s taking a while to get used to. The slow delay while hovering over a tool is slowing me down a bit. I would LOVE to see the shortcut keys next to the tools like in the original.
