Bug Fixes
- Fixed wrong handling of scaling factor during multi-preset export.
- Fixed missing help URL, pointing to the online documentation, for
the new AgX module.
- Fixed wrong handling of overwrite if changed in export.
- Fixed images exported with wrong settings when using multi-preset
export.
- Fixed wrong RAW specific auto-applied preset being applied to non
RAW images.
- Fixed subtle color casts in bayer dual demosaicers.
- RustiCL gets the default optimizing compiler flags as other
platforms.
- Fixed loading some Olympus ORF files (e.g. E-410 and E-510)
due to a possible crash or memory corruption when parsing
highlight-preservation Exif tag.
- Fixed the mask support in scale pixels module.
- Fixed a possible crash when using workspace due to the non
deterministic ordering of the list of workspace read on disk.
- The list of the allowed tags in the metadata editor preferences has
been restricted to tags which are supposed to be user-editable.
- Fixed the thumbnail information update in the overlay or the tooltip
when some metadata variable are used. That is, when changing the
metadata we need to recompute the thumbnail information.
- Fixed a possibly standstill while discarding history on fast
systems.
- Fixed a possible crash in the way the Color Equalizer module GUI is
initialized.
- Fixed an issue in culling layout where switching to the darkroom
sometimes failed with an error message.
- Fixed an inconsistency in the styles module UI when shown in the
darkroom view. It is not possible to create a duplicate to which the
style is applied, and the setting of the corresponding checkbox has
just been ignored. To avoid confusion, the checkbox is now hidden in
the darkroom view.
- Fixes resets to default OpenCL per device setting.
- Fixed possibly outdated metadata when returning from darkroom. For
example if the image is cropped in darkroom, the metadata $(WIDTH.x)
and $(HEIGHT.x) where not correct on lighttable.
- Fixed a missing thumbnail overlays with $(CATEGORY[n,m]) variables
update when a tag is assigned.
- Fixed jumping of curvature slider when used on the mask manager.
- Fixed a crash when mounting a camera from Darktable due to the
current locale. Mounting is now done using the C locale.

metadata fields unless the user selects all of the checkboxes in the
export module's preference options.
