And performance increases even more with each additional GPU.ĭevelopers claim that the app applies the new Denoise filter up to 2.5x faster and effects up to 2x faster on Mac Pro with 2 GPUs compared to iMac Pro. We’ve been able to optimize multi-GPU support so that with multiple graphics processors in Mac Pro, you’ll see big performance boosts in Pixelmator Pro.
Thanks to its Metal-based architecture and GPU-powered editing engine, Pixelmator Pro absolutely flies on the upcoming Mac Pro. The app’s developers also mentioned big performance improvements: With ML Denoise, a new noise removal tool powered by machine learning, you can easily remove luminance and color noise created by cameras in low-light photos, reduce artifacts caused by image compression algorithms and so forth. The app now fully supports Touch Bar, which means you’ll see Touch Bar controls at the bottom of the iPad screen when using Sidecar, even if your Mac doesn’t have a Touch Bar.
Thanks to this, you can extend your Pixelmator workspace using your iPad as a second Mac display and use your Apple stylus to paint, sketch, create graphic designs, and retouch your photos with support for pressure sensitivity, acceleration, tilt and the double-tap gesture. The image editor now supports Catalina’s Sidecar feature, as well as Apple Pencil. Pixelmator Pro 1.5 is fully compatible with the new macOS Catalina 10.15 software and brings with it new features such as a machine learning-powered Denoise filter and all-new Extended Dynamic Range mode with 10-bit color depth and P3 wide color gamut which are both natively supported by Apple’s upcoming Pro Display XDR.
Photoshop alternative Pixelmator Pro today released a major update to its pro Mac app, bringing a significant speed boost on high-end systems thanks to further Metal and GPU optimizations. Pixelmator Pro gains Denoise tool, support for Catalina, Sidecar, Mac Pro & Pro Display XDR - Seadmete Uudised Sisu:
