- Clean diagonal strokes with pixel-perfect mode
- Adjustable brush size and opacity
- Eyedropper: long-press any canvas area to sample a color

Selections
- Rectangular, freehand, polygonal, and color-based selection
- Add or subtract from any selection
- Transform the canvas, a layer, or a selected area

Layers
- Add, delete, duplicate, and reorder
- Per-layer opacity, visibility, lock, and alpha-lock
- Blend modes: Normal, Multiply, Screen, Overlay, Add, and Subtract

Reference & Import
- Floating reference window and in-project reference layers
- Import PNG or JPG as new layers
- Export PNG (free), JPG, and scaled output (Pro)

Dixel Pro.

Fixes
• Fixed a crash that could end your session if you changed tool while
still drawing.
• The 32-layer limit now says so plainly instead of showing a Pro offer
you already own.
