Added

  • Welcome screen — when no document is open, Sable shows a welcome/tips screen with recent files
    and quick how-to tips. Toggle it in Preferences (and via "Show this welcome screen").
  • Contextual task bar — a small action bar with the most relevant actions for what you're doing
    (Gen Fill, Mask, Invert, Deselect). Toggle from the Window menu.
  • Radial quick-tools menu — press ` to pop a radial tool picker at the cursor.
  • Navigator panel — a zoomable thumbnail of the whole document for fast panning.
  • Keyboard Shortcuts window (Help ▸ Keyboard Shortcuts) — a printable reference of every tool and
    canvas shortcut.
  • Pass-through groups — a group can now composite straight onto the layers below it, so adjustments
    and filters placed inside the group affect everything underneath (toggle per group).
  • Gradient Map adjustment — remap tones through a gradient.
  • Blend If — in Layer Effects, hide a layer where the layers below are darker or brighter (shadow
    and highlight ranges, on the underlying composite).
  • Gradient tool shapes — Linear, Radial, Conical, Reflected and Diamond (was linear only).
  • Brush dynamics and presets — stroke smoothing (stabilizer), dab spacing, and stylus
    pressure → size / pressure → flow for tablets, plus saveable brush presets (size/hardness/flow/
    spacing/pressure).
  • Place… (File menu) to add an image as a new layer, plus Revert, Close, Close All and
    Close Others.
  • Edit menu: Paste in Place, Fill with Foreground and Fill with Background.
  • Copy / Paste / Clear layer effects from the layer context menu.
  • Math in numeric fields — type an expression like 100*2 or 50+10 into size/amount boxes.
  • Animated splash screen at startup.

Changed

  • Non-destructive crop — the Crop tool gains aspect-ratio presets and a Delete pixels toggle.
    With it off, layers keep the content outside the crop, so you can enlarge the canvas later to
    un-crop.
  • Selection ▸ Grow / Shrink / Smooth / Border / Feather now ask for an amount instead of being
    fixed at 4 px.
  • Hold \ to compare — temporarily view the image with all adjustments and live filters hidden.
  • More zoom presets (50% / 200%) and quick panel-visibility toggles (Tools / Colour / Layers).
  • Status bar shows memory use — app working set and GPU VRAM in use.
  • History panel — drag to scrub through the edit history.
  • Esc closes dialogs consistently across every dialog, and middle-clicking a document tab closes
    it
    .
  • Ungroup now has a menu entry, and the layer list can be filtered by name.
