Known issues
- Unsigned Binaries: The binaries are not signed with a digital certificate, which may cause security warnings or require additional steps to run the application for the first time on macOS and Windows.
- Antialiasing Artifacts: Some GPUs may exhibit poor or missing antialiasing. To resolve this, navigate to the preferences and set Multi-Sample Anti-Aliasing (MSAA) to 16x.
- macOS Cache Issues: Changes to animated items may not display or redraw correctly on macOS due to caching problems. To fix this, you can either clear the cache by pressing
Cmd+ror disable the preview cache from the view menu.
