NOTE: because of problems updating to the latest version of the JPEG-XL library on Windows, not all improvements are already available in Beta1. There have been many improvements to the JPEG-XL file format handling.There is a whole new color selector that supports wide-gamut color spaces.The transform tool can now transform all selected layers.If you want to access the new features, you will need to use SVG source code editor from the text tool. Step two is rewriting the actual tool you use to work with text. This provides support for text-on-path, vertical text, wrapped text, text-in-shape, OpenType, emoji and more. As the first part of a two-part rewrite of text handling in Krita, the text shape engine has been rewritten completely.Also for animation, video export has been made much easier: you no longer need to separately download FFmpeg, since FFmpeg now built into Krita.

For animation, audio playback has been rewritten completely using the MLT framework.

The release notes will give you all the details, but here are some highlights:
