Changed

  • The marker is a highlighter, as on macOS. It follows the pointer instead of drawing
    a straight line from where you pressed to where you let go, so it can follow a sloping
    line of text or circle something. It draws a broad, see-through band six times the width
    shown on the toolbar, so the text under it stays readable. Before, it drew a thin opaque
    line that covered what it was meant to mark.
  • Line widths and sizes are in points, as on macOS, so a mark looks as thick on a
    display scaled to 175% as on one at 100%. This covers lines, text, numbers, stamps and
    the magnifier. Before, they were in screen pixels, so at 175% a width of 3 drew a line
    little more than half as thick as on macOS. On a scaled display, new marks are now
    thicker and larger than before.
  • A selected pencil or marker stroke is outlined around its whole width, rather than
    through the middle of it.

Added

  • Hold Shift to keep a pencil or marker stroke straight, as on macOS. The stroke
    follows whichever direction you move first, horizontal or vertical, from the point
    where you pressed Shift.

Note

  • If you had changed the marker's width, it goes back to 3 once. The number now means
    something different, and the old setting would have drawn a band six times too wide.
    Highlights in captures you saved earlier reopen from the history at the width they were
    drawn at, but they are now see-through.
