**Of more interest to this column is version 1.0. As I’ve mentioned previously, it’s my intention to cover the new features and changes in this milestone release, starting this month. But the first feature I’m going to mention – as much to get it out of the way, as anything else – might seem a little odd for this Ubuntu-focused magazine: I’m going to talk about version 1.0 on MacOS, which represents one of the biggest changes in the history of the Inkscape project. | **Of more interest to this column is version 1.0.

**For several years, Apple were proud of the Unix underpinnings of OSX, and shipped their own X server, perhaps as a way to bolster the number of applications available for their fledgling new OS. Over time, this became less of a selling point, and the X server saw little love and attention. Since 2012, Apple no longer maintains their own X server, but does contribute to the Open Source XQuartz project. For the past few years, therefore, it has been necessary to install XQuartz in order to use Inkscape on MacOS. Although this works reasonably well, this combination does have a few idiosyncrasies, | **For several years, Apple were proud of the Unix underpinnings of OSX, and shipped their own X server, perhaps as a way to bolster the number of applications available for their fledgling new OS.

**The new release updates the user interface toolkit to GTK3, which has resulted in a slightly different look and feel, but also in significant improvements for users of modern “retina” or “HiDPI” screens. It also brings greatly enhanced theme support, to the extent that there is a new, dedicated “Theme” panel in the “Interface” section of the Inkscape preferences dialog. | **The new release updates the user interface toolkit to GTK3, which has resulted in a slightly different look and feel, but also in significant improvements for users of modern “retina” or “HiDPI” screens.

**The “Use dark theme” checkbox in the dialog seems a little redundant to me. As far as I can tell, if you select a named entry from the popup, and there’s a corresponding “-dark” theme, this checkbox lets you easily switch between the two. However, since all the different versions are listed in the popup, including the dark ones, there’s no need for this checkbox anyway. Worse still, some themes have three different entries: in the case of the “Yaru” theme, for example, there is “Yaru”, “Yaru-light” (those two appear to be the same), and “Yaru-dark”. This checkbox would make more sense if the suffixed versions were suppressed in the menu. You would then select a theme first (e.g. “Yaru”) before using the checkbox to toggle between the “-light” and “-dark” variants.** | **The “Use dark theme” checkbox in the dialog seems a little redundant to me.

There are actually two other icon styles available, though the UI for selecting them is not entirely straightforward.

**My personal preference is for a light theme with colorful icons. I’m of the view that icons with distinctive colors as well as shapes probably require a little less cognitive effort to recognise, leading to a UI that’s easier, and therefore faster to navigate with less conscious thought required. As the work I do in Inkscape generally ends up being printed on white sheets of paper, I usually use a white background in the drawing window. A light theme therefore leads to a less jarring difference between the light color of the canvas and the UI around it. But I know that some people do love their dark themes, and it’s for these users that I think the symbolic icons come into their own. Looking at the top-left corner of the Inkscape window with the default icons but a dark theme (Yaru-dark) shows the problem with using the default non-symbolic themes:** | **My personal preference is for a light theme with colorful icons.

**Notice how jarring the colored icons are against the darkness of the toolbars. Conversely, there are some symbolic icons visible even with this icon set, which are too dark and difficult to make out (I’ve reported this as an issue, and the feedback is that it appears to be a packaging problem with the Snap). Switching to a symbolic theme makes the icons a lot more consistent: | **Notice how jarring the colored icons are against the darkness of the toolbars.

Although they’re consistent, they’re also a bit too bright. By un-ticking the “Use default colors for icons” checkbox, however, you can use the color buttons below to select the main icon color, as well as the highlight colors (for the multicolor theme). This makes it possible to knock the bright icons back to a darker grey – or even a color tint, should you wish.** | Although they’re consistent, they’re also a bit too bright.

**In the case of the multicolor theme, the three highlight colors are used in the toolbox icons as a means of grouping similar sets of tools together. Once again, this addition of color aids in reducing the cognitive effort required to identify an icon. What I’d really like is the ability to set each base color or highlight on a per-icon basis, so that I could make the tools I regularly use stand out more than those that see only occasional deployment. Perhaps in a future version. | **In the case of the multicolor theme, the three highlight colors are used in the toolbox icons as a means of grouping similar sets of tools together.
