There are some awesome things in here (taken from https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/1.0 https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/index.php/Release_notes/1.0, thanks Vinnl), here are my highlights: - HiDPI support - Touch pad and touch screen pinch to zoom (YES!!!) - The canvas can be rotated and flipped (probably great for hand drawing, would be way more useful if possible by touch) - GTK 3 - Pressure sensitive pencil - Interactivity for UI mockups - Autosave is on by default - Plotter extension automatically converts things to paths - Unified raster tracing - Better Mac OS integration While the UI has apparently been polished a whole bunch, I think most of my other comment moaning about it still applies - and that's really sad, especially when you want to market this as a mile stone release everyone should try. You'll still end up turning off a lot of people, I'm afraid.

"Pressure sensitive pencil" I assume this was only missing in the MacOS version, because I used a wacom tablet with inkscape already 10 years ago.

  Pressure sensitivity was only working on the caligraphy tool, not on the pencil! This is an huge improvement - The rendering of the pencil tool is way faster for me and i suppose pencil lines are plain paths with an strokeWith, so the resulting svg would have way less complextion on the path data, i guess. Not checked yet. :- )

    Oh, that is good news!

> The canvas can be rotated and flipped […] I discovered this one by accident in the 1.0 beta. I still don't know which shortcut did that, but I definitely like having that option. Great when you are making woodworking plans and want to work on a section of the drawing where some parts are not aligned horizontally or vertically.

> - Touch pad and touch screen pinch to zoom (YES!!!) It seems like there is still some work to do on this. Trying to use the pinch gesture crashes Inkscape 1.0rc1 (09960d6, 2020-04-09) instantly and reliably on Mojave.
