Sometimes latest versions of the software can cause issues when installed on older devices or devices running an older version of the operating system.

Software makers usually fix these issues but it can take them some time. What you can do in the meantime is to download and install an older version of Inkscape 1.2.1.

What's new in this version:

Fixed:
- 3D box and one when panning, then switching to 3D box tool
- the option 'Check attributes and style properties on Editing' was enabled and the document was edited while there was additional whitespace inside group items in the SVG code
- converting an LPE path (e.g. when exporting to PDF) to a normal object when the original path was corrupted
- ungrouping a clipped object that had been created with the option "Put all clipped/masked objects into one group" enabled
- ungrouping while the Export dialog is open

Fixed:
General:
- Fixed loss of drawing data (saved in defs section of the SVG, like filters, masks, clips, gradients, ...) occurring when performing the sequence copy-paste-undo with the Export dialog open, which only became obvious after saving and reloading the file
- Fixed Inkscape freezing when starting with many fonts installed and the Text and Font dialog open
- Fixed accented characters in context menus for input fields in non-English languages on Windows
- Added back the ability to set a keyboard shortcut for swapping fill and stroke paint of an object
- Aligning objects using keyboard shortcuts now respects the current 'Relative to' setting from the "Align and Distribute" dialog
- When there are no recently used files to show, a text tells you about it now instead of the submenu just remaining empty
- Fixed some translation markup typos
- Fixed inverted alignment of page with 'Resize page to selection', and of objects bottom/top edges using the buttons in the Alignment dialog when the document y-axis points up
- Fixed guide direction so perpendicular or tangential snapping only work if you let go when the guide is tangential
- The page background opacity previously set is now respected when reopening the file
- Clicking on two different tool buttons in quick succession no longer opens preferences dialog
- Custom setting for the opacity of the drawing in outline overlay view mode is no longer lost when closing Inkscape
- Fixed a bug with ungrouping clipped objects
- Scaling the pattern object for a "Pattern along Path" path effect now affects the resulting size again
- The warning message "WHOOPS... this does really happen" no longer happens on the command line
- When dragging and zooming, there should be fewer rendering artifacts now
- Rendering should be a little bit smoother now on Windows and macOS

Dialogs:
- The Export button is no longer greyed out for the next export, when an export options dialog was canceled while batch exporting
- Some stock markers in the Fill and Stroke dialog could not be selected or had an invalid id value

PDF Export:
- Rasterized (filtered) objects that are not on the first page of a multipage document now show up in exported PDF files
- Stray markers no longer show up unexpectedly in exported PDF files
- Marker colors are no longer changed to black in some special cases in exported PDF files

Themes:
- Text that was dark blue on dark background with a dark theme in the Keyboard shortcuts preferences and the Text and Font dialog is now readable (bold instead of different color)

Tools:
- Fixed the size of the text background for the measurements created by the Measurement tool when converting a measurement to objects
- The Circle and 3D Box tools work again when using Inkscape in Czech language on Linux

Windows-specific Fixes:
- Installer images updated to represent correct Inkscape version

Improvements for development / deployment:
- Translation files are now always generated automatically and available for download

Extension bug fixes:
Bugfixes in particular extensions:
- Parts of a LaTeX formula no longer become invisible when running the pdflatex extension multiple times
- A few typos in the pdflatex extension have been fixed
- The help messages and tooltips of the Interpolate, Restack and Extrude extensions have been improved

Improvements that apply to all extensions:
