Changed

  • The pointer now shows what a click will do, as it does on macOS. Over a mark you can
    move, it becomes the move pointer, whichever drawing tool is selected. Over the handles
    of a selected shape, it shows the direction that handle resizes. Before, it stayed a
    crosshair everywhere unless the pointer tool was selected, so the only way to find out
    whether a click would draw or move something was to click.
  • Marks are easier to pick up on a high-resolution display. The distance at which a
    click still catches a line used to shrink as Windows' display scaling went up, so at
    175% you had to put the crosshair right on the line. It is now the same at every scaling,
    as on macOS.
  • The pencil and the marker show how thick their line will be. A dot the size of the
    stroke follows the pointer, so you can judge the width before you draw. On macOS the dot
    replaces the pointer; on Windows the crosshair stays and the dot is drawn under it.

Added

  • Shapes have a handle in the middle of each side, as on macOS. Drag one to make a
    rectangle, ellipse or other shape taller or wider without changing its other dimension.

Fixed

  • The magnifier stays round when you resize it. Dragging one of its corners used to
    stretch it into an oval, which stretched what it magnified too.
