Software Update: Krita 3.1.3

Version 3.1.3 of Krita has been released. Krita is a program for editing and creating digital drawings, and can handle both bitmap and vector graphics. The program is part of Calligra Suite and is developed by the KDE team, but also works fine under Gnome or XFCE. In addition, there are downloads for Windows and macOS. In version 3.1, support for macOS is complete and animations can be saved as gif, mp4, mkv or ogg. The changelog for this release mainly shows bug fixes.

Krita 3.1.3 released!
Today we’re proud to release Krita 3.1.3. A ton of bug fixes, and some nice new features as well! Dmitry and Boud have taken a month off from implementing Kickstarter features to make Krita 3.1.3 as good and solid as we could make it. Thanks to all the people who have tested the alpha, the beta and the release candidate! Thanks to all the people who have worked on translations, too, and to Alexey Samoilov for picking up the maintenance of the Ubuntu Lime PPA.

We also have a new version of the Windows explorer integration plugin, that makes it possible to show thumbnails of .kra and .ora files: several memory leaks were fixed, and a conflict with .ora files created by an Oracle database too was resolved. Thanks to Alvin Wong!

New Features

• Scale around pivot point added
