1.1.0
This is a new major version of Xournal++ with many new features, improvements,
and bug fixes thanks to over one year's worth of contributions from the community.
• Breaking changes:
◦ Xournal++ now follows the XDG Base Directory Specification (#1101,
#1384). The configuration files will now be stored in an appropriate
platform-specific user data folder. Old configuration files will be copied
automatically if the new user data folder does not exist.
◦ For users that have non-default DPI settings, text elements in old
documents may be displayed with incorrect sizes/positions. A new plugin is
included to fix the positioning of these text elements. See the relevant bug
in the "Text tool" section below.
◦ The old input system has been removed, which may affect some users.
◦ Windows: The installer has been updated, fixing many issues such as:
incorrectly set up registry keys, missing uninstaller entry, missing entries in
Open With context menu in Explorer, missing icons, etc. (#2606, #2585,
#2387, #2141, #2036, #1903, #2666, #3215). When upgrading from 1.0.18,
you must not run the uninstaller; instead, run the updated installer, which
will clean up files from the old install and fix the registry key entries. If you
are downgrading from 1.1.0 to 1.0.18 or older, you must run the uninstaller
first.
◦ Linux: Support for Ubuntu 16.04 (and older distros) has been dropped.
Please use a distro from 2018 or later, such as Ubuntu 18.04 or Debian
Buster. The dependency versions have been updated accordingly.
◦ Linux: The thumbnailer program has been renamed from xournal-
thumbnailer to xournalpp-thumbnailer in order to fix tab completion
(#1752).
◦ Linux: Xournal++ now has a hard dependency on librsvg . This should not
affect end-users, only maintainers and packagers.
◦ The code has been updated to use C++17 (#1485) and must now be
compiled using a supported compiler version, such as GCC 7 or Clang 5 (or
newer).
◦ MacOS: Dropped support for macOS High Sierra; minimal version is now
Catalina (#2989)
• Document viewing
◦ Changed page selection system to now select the current page during
scrolling (#1613, #1184).
◦ Improved page load performance and memory consumption with new page

specification. This change should only affect users that install with make
install ; these users must run make uninstall with a cloned version of
Xournal++ 1.0.12 first. We recommend migrating to another installation format,
