What's new in this version:

New Features:
A completely new Pixelmator file format that uses all of the today's OS X technologies and makes your image editing even faster and more enjoyable:
- 2x faster: It can open and save your Pixelmator documents twice as fast compared with the previous Pixelmator file format.
- Saves in background: This means that while you play with your images, Pixelmator automatically saves the changes in the background.
- Faster saving to iCloud: The first image file format saves only the edits you make to iCloud instead of saving the whole picture each time. So it takes less time to save and you have more time to enjoy image editing.
- Progress bar: The new Pixelmator file format allows us to show a progress bar with accurate status while opening and saving documents.
- Quick Look support: A better Quick Look support that lets you preview your Pixelmator document without even opening it.

A new checkbox for opening images in their original file format. This means that you can now choose whether to open and save all images in the Pixelmator file format or in their original file format.

Improvements:
The Effects Browser improvements let you search, preview, and apply effects even more quickly:
- Quickly open highlighted effects by simply pressing the Return key on your keyboard.
- Each effect has more keywords, so that you can find effects more quickly.

- Now you can zoom in or out, pan, enter Full Screen, enlarge the document window, switch between Pixelmator documents, or open more images��"all while applying an effect or using the Select Color and Refine Selection features.
- Quickly compare how an image looks with and without the effect by pressing the Option-Command keyboard shortcut.
