Wonderful to hear that it is now a native application in macOS that does not require XQuartz!
Perhaps related: Inkscape has always felt quite laggy for me, even with my extremely basic needs. I pretty much just make text in boxes and connect them with arrows. So together with all these new lovely features, I hope that performance is improved in this release also.

- oxguy3 6y agoThe 1.0 version for macOS is a preview release and it still has performance issues, but performance fixes are coming, according to the macOS download page. Honestly, I'm so blown away with the beautiful native macOS support that I'm perfectly content to wait a bit longer for better performance.
- travisgriggs 6y agoAre you sure? I was at 1.0.0rc yesterday, and the brew bumped me up to 1.0.0. Or maybe you are saying that macOS 1.0 version is still sort of "beta"? Either way, I love Inkscape. I draw all of our apps icons as acts with it and then use it to create all of our pdf icons of iOS and convert to drawables for Android.
- Tagbert 6y agoYes, early on I was trying to use Inkscape on Mac OS. I finally switched to Affinity Desginer and was much happier. Hopefully, they fix the performance so that Inkscape can finally be a reasonable option on Mac OS.
