Release Notes Published

Changes After Beta

  • Fixed exporting projects containing only Generator clips on Windows (broke in v25.05).
  • Added Outline video filter that uses the input alpha channel, useful with rich text or assets with a transparent background. (This means that it will not work as expected when used after a text filter on a video clip; rather, you must use a text clip on an upper track.)
  • Fixed dropdown menus using Settings > Theme > System on Windows.
  • Improved the System theme to follow the operating system color mode/palette.
  • Added Settings > Theme > System Fusion that combines the operating system color mode/palette with the monochrome, symbolic icons of the Fusion themes.
  • Added a Soft Focus filter set.
