Synfig Studio 1.4.3 introduces major performance optimizations for Windows users and important bugfixes for all platforms. Please read the details below.

Optimizations for Windows version

  • We have removed many bottlenecks in Synfig's code, related with redundant calls of "getenv" function. This resulted in great performance improvement of Windows version (#2826). This fix also gives slight speed boost for MacOS, while Linux users will not see any significant difference.
  • Windows version now shipped with embedded Python version 3.8.10, which results in smaller size of distributive and faster installation (#67).

Critical fixes

  • Connecting bone parameter to exported value does not results in corrupted file anymore (#2433).
  • Fixed issue with autosave not working when interval is set to 15 seconds (#2647).
  • Fixed "Link To Spline" action not shown in menu when trying to connect vertex to spline (#2344).
  • Fixed Appimage compatibility with recent Linux distributions (#33).
  • Fixed issue with Text Tool not working on MacOS because of missing "fonts.conf" file (#2380).
