Inkscape 0.92.4 (64-bit)

What's new in this version:

Changes:
- This Inkscape version will not work with Windows XP anymore. Inkscape 0.92.3 is the last version that works on XP

Improvements:
Align and Distribute:
- You can now align multiple (ungrouped) objects as a group relative to another, single object. This makes "treat selection as group" useful with the selections "Last selected / First selected / Biggest object / Smallest object" in which case all elements will be moved as a group relative to the "focused" element which will be kept fixed

Color sliders:
- The movement of the color sliders can now be constrained by holding the "Ctrl" key while dragging

Extensions:
- Previously, the current selection was lost after running an extension. Now, whenever possible, Inkscape will try to keep the objects selected
- Extensions developers can again rely on the order of inkex.Effect.selected.iteritems() reflecting the user's selection order properly
- Extensions work faster now in documents consisting of a large number of objects

Automated Graphics Processing:
- Inkscape is now able to read and write pipes. You can use this to process data without using temporary files

Other improvements:
- Improved saving speed (especially some extreme slowdowns with certain large files like those created by Adobe Illustrator have been resolved, see also bug # 1793877 )
- Improved filter rendering speed ( Commit )
- Improved performance of the measure tool, when grids are visible ( Commit )
- Dragging paths with a live path effect works faster now (Bug # [1] 245078)


Fixes:
- Deselecting a path with many nodes would take a long time
- Ungrouping text elements would result in a changed font size
- Some files with live path effects that could not be opened in Inkscape 0.92.3 work again in 0.92.4
- Some printer drivers (reportedly Canon, EPSON, and Konica Minolta drivers) either failed to print at all, or scaled documents to the wrong paper size. Inkscape would send print jobs with a custom paper size, instead of sizes supported by the drivers
- The measure tool became confused by mirrored text. Now it measures distances between letters correctly, even when mirrored
- Fixed reduced opacity of partially transparent embedded bitmap images in PDF export
- Fixed reduced opacity of partially transparent filtered objects in PDF export when "Rasterize filter effects" is active
- Fixed a very annoying crash when Shift/Ctrl-clicking on control handles of shapes
- Inkscape can now be built with up-to-date poppler library 0.72.0. This is especially useful for Mac OS users, using Homebrew for building Inkscape
- Filter editor no longer crashes when removing the last blend filter
- Fixed a crash upon closing a document, when the default template was missing
- Copy-pasting the power stroke LPE from one path to another works better now
