Only a week after the 5.2.10 release, Krita, a popular open-source, cross-platform digital painting app for artists, from beginners to professionals, has just rolled out version 5.2.11—a small maintenance update, especially aimed at Android users.
Most notably, this update tackles those annoying intermittent glitches with the canvas display on Android devices. You know how frustrating it can get when you’re just trying to draw and the canvas starts acting up. That’s no longer the case.
Besides the Android canvas issue, the Krita team has also resolved a bug that popped up when toggling between canvas-only mode—basically, no more weird behavior when you’re switching views.
Another fix targets the index colors filter. Previously, applying this filter to layers with just one solid, non-transparent color would sometimes cause hiccups. That’s patched now, too.
On the technical side, Krita 5.2.11 addresses a compatibility issue with libheif 1.20. Plus, those pesky Python invalid escape sequence warnings have finally been squashed.
Visit the release announcement for detailed information about all the novelties. Krita 5.2.11 is now available for download on Windows (64-bit only), Linux (as AppImage, Flatpak, and Snap), macOS, and Android tablets.
