The color refactoring is on the way. It is an important step to get CMYK implemented. So it's slowly taking shape!

Would be awesome if there is finally cymk support in inkscape for printing.

The new font function will save so many lives.

Yeah using fonts in Inkspace is quite the challenge. These improvements look a pretty big step forward

This update seems really nice! Hope we can have native CMYK now 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

It's being worked on by Martin and will probably either ship on 1.5 or be very close to it and end up launching in 1.6!

The unified font browser is definite need to have. I am glad it is being addressed in this release. The filter preview will definitely give me more ease and freedom to explore what the other filters do. Thanks for the update.

That font browser looks cool. Thanks.

Thank you for the quick update! I'm excited about the font browser too.

Neat, I can't wait to test the final stable version. Go team Inkscape ^_^

Ever since Adobe killed Macromedia Freehand (back in the distant past) I've been a loyal Inkscape user. It simply keeps improving and has become quite a beast.

FreeHand was LIGHTYEARS ahead of Illustrator. I was heartbroken to see it go. I only just recently tried Inkscape because I'm being asked to teach a free alternative to Illustrator. I wasn't really looking forward to it, but BOY...am I impressed! My only complaint was things like the anemic font system and the filters that I was gonna have to look through one by one in 1.3. This solves my problem. I hope this version is reasonably stable so I can show it off to my students.

@@gmlaster Agreed! It never made sense to me that Adobe killed off the better product. I even ran Illustrator on Linux using Wine for a time until I mastered Inkscape. I think the modern Inkscape now comes up to scratch with Inkscape. Good to hear you are introducing your students to Open Source software. They need to know there are other viable options to the increasingly restrictive commercial software.

Loving the font browser! Thanks for the heads up!

I am solely grateful and thankful to everyone behind Inkscape for such a great work thus far and this new beta release... I am loving it. Thanks Nicks for the quick reviews of what we will be getting in this Inkscape version 1.4

The UI feels more like corel draw. But I love it much better than previous version.

Finally, useful font selection again! Before Inkscape had the current font selector, it had one without a font preview, but in which you could just click and then use arrow keys to change the text to another font to immediately see what your text looked like. That they deprecated that one has been my main pain point for years now and I'm glad we're finally getting one with preview *and* cursor key navigation. Also, shoutout for the League of Movable Type fonts. :D

WOW... I am a pure hobbyist. Learning any new software take time, something I have very little of at most. So that new grid and text stuff is great news for me. Thank you so much, best wishes.

The filters and the font selection changes..... ooooh I'm excited! 😁

Finally a modular grid ❤❤❤

Always enjoy and learn from your videos, Nick. Keep up the great work you are doing here.

Awesome, can't wait. Excited for the font browser.

The new filters and font browser look great.

Things are coming along beautifully!

Fantastic update!! Thanks for the recap video 👏🏻😃

Love this update!! Thanks very much for the video as always ❤️

I have been playing around with 1.4 this is so awesome. I cannot wait to see what else this does. thanks, Nick I actually got both versions in but I like the new on so so much better.

Thanks, Nick! Glad to see we'll get an update soon.

Thanks Nick. Inkscape is really moving ahead. Thanks for helping keep me up to speed. It would be handy if one could print multiple pages/artboards from within Inkscape (rather than save as pdf and printing), and if course no CYMK must still be disappointing you.

Great stuff coming to Inkscape.

Great update. I love vector graphics so much, definitely one of my favorite open source software.

The new font browser is fabulous. Great for sign work.

Hi guys, thank you for your work! I have a video/topic idea(s) (and you can do a survey with the community)! Video idea(s): - how to customize inkscape - how to make it look like adobe illustrator, affinity designer - how to create your own theme (icon sets, colors etc..) - best inkscape themes - saving your custom UI Thanks again and Keep Up The Good Work!

modular grids are a game changer! I needed that months ago, I'm so happy with how inkscape is evolving ❤

I m gonna love this new version !!

I just download the 1.3 version and I love it, I'll be waiting for the compleate version of this update 'cause it looks so cool and helpfull

Unloved inkscape so so so much! And I’m happy they are pushing forward always to the better ✨

Very nice! For me, Inkscape has a bit of a steep learning curve. You've made the journey enjoyable and easier to digest. Thanks a bunch!

Wow its amazing. Thank you to everyone that make inkscape better🤩

Vote Inkscape, and Nick for president 👌thanks for the awesome work you do

Thank you. A very interesting presentation.

Once the full new version is out, I will definitely get it just for the font option. I usually open up my font settings on my computer and search through the fonts there to find what I wanted, then go back to Inkscape and select the exact one I wanted.

Thanks for the great news! Best Inkscape channel!

what a god send update!!! im FN Stoked

These look very exciting!

Cool! Making Inkscape easier to work with is always a good thing.

Thanks for the video. Good improvements, now it's time to test. In my case I have found that the text spacing tool closes every time you press enter, which is not right. I don't know if it happens only to me, but I have already reported it.

Thank you Nick

Great video. Looks like an exciting relaease

Thank you, your videos are always interesting and well done! I ask a perhaps silly question: is there a way to manage variable fonts? Maybe it's me who doesn't know the system to do it... but if it didn't exist it would be very nice for it to exist!!!

The filter gallery alone is going to be amazing.

cool, I liked the updates Inkscape is getting more and more amazing.

Great Nick you are the best man!

Thank for the update. I would like to know more about the new feature in inkstitch if I can use the cut work new feature in splitting a design

Font feature is freaking awesome!

Looks great. Thanks

Love Inkscape! Hoping for a knife tool one day though 😋 not a deal breaker luckily

Finally…FONTS! Thank you!

Modular grid is really cool!

Inkscape or getting more amazing by the day.

I can't waitttttt!!!!!

Thank you so much

Waiting 🤩

Very cool!

much needed meaningful changes, these

Hope they will add CMYK colour preview and for printing.

Thanks Sensei

The font improvement is going to be a game changer for sure! Also, text on path is a bit of a problem for me. I can put text on a path, but if I want to invert the text, I can’t seem to do so. (I.e. putting text around a circular path, but inverting the text at the bottom to be legible in one orientation) I keep learning more with Inkscape, as I too use it for logos, as well as some illustrations.

Knowing Inkscape since 1.2 and experience what it does and how good it became already in 1.4, I'm almost afraid of how good 2.0 is gonna be

I'm seeing a nice performance bump with zooming scrolling (using opengl).

Glad you like a new features. But there are not many other features planed for this release. This year was in spirit of migration of backend stuff for gtk4 that should hopefully should happen next year

посмотрите квк устроено перемещение или редактирование элементов в архикаде: там все построено на входе в режим редактировании и на выходе из него. тогда удобно задавать направление или расстояние без дополнительных напряжений

Hello Nick, congratulations on the video. Martin released a new video and mentioned you, have you seen it?

Thanks for the update. I do like the update to the font browser. Is there a way to create custom groups of fonts? For example, if I have about ten favorite fonts, I could create a favorites group. If I wanted futuristic fonts, I could create a group called that. And so on and so forth.

Yes that was added in 1.3, but I think it needs a lot more love to be a great feature.

The filter gallery should live preview the effects when you click/focus on a filter, and then make it fixed to the object when you hit apply-exactly how the unified font browser applies to text.

Hopefully they have (or will soon) solve the issue (bug?) in Inkscape where not all weights and styles of an installed font family are available from the dropdown menu.

It would be great if they modernized the ruler and the way of accessing extensions, of measuring curves. The text that appears on the ruler with the object information makes it very difficult to measure small pieces. It would be nice to have the option to deactivate that feature whenever we want.

The font browser is indeed super !!! Now it needs text styles !

hey nick could you make a tutorial in making good block graphs such as in in the web app miro? I know that Inkscape is capable of doing it, and I can achieve it, but i think i am missing some tools to make it more reliable (get perfect resluts of aligment and that type of things) and easy. it would be awsome!

Thank you for the update I am excited to work with it, I immediately downloaded this version but I'm unable to import or see a preview from my folders to complete a design. Can you assist me with this issue? Thank you!

Can you snap to those grids? That would be nice.

It would be so useful if they have added the “real time alignment and distribution” such as in PowerPoint and adobe illustrator, where it gives you a hint that objects are already aligned or not.

Thank for update, I love the new option functions of Shape Builder Tool, but hope that in the future it will be able to easy trim path (open shape) like in Illustrator or Designer.

Hope to have a "Simplified" feature to reduce the number of nodes just like Illustrator. I do a lot of objects union, intersection, different, break apart. That increases the number of nodes in my final product and I find it hard to clean up the nodes in Inkscape.

Inkscape has this feature . Path - path effects - simplify

Nick, have you got any videos on bevel filters or indeed any other Inkscape effects that would be suitable for a logo involving a tiling mosaic ? I have looked through the existing filters but the only thing near this tile edge effect is the Filters > Bevels > Raised Ridge . . . But this has the "grout" sticking up instead of lying below the level of the tiles as it is in reality. It also makes the overall logo a bit dimmer and fuzzier, as if the view was through a dull glass. Any ideas are welcome and I love your videos 🐬

Does anyone know how to reset the filters to the default values?

The font browser!! How did it take so long to add something so helpful?

Love the filter gallery, finally no more guessing. OpenGL Performance improvements can wait until critical things like CMYK are implemented (Inkscape is so choppy visually right now).

I'd wish they made radial gradient more convenient to do

Fantastic job by Inkscape team, if only Gimp was this good and made good decisions like the inkscape or blender devs.

The font browser is a bigger thing than it should be. It will make the work much easier.

Would you suggest downloaidng this Beta?

Nice
