Changelog:
1.0.1 Release highlights
Selectors/CSS dialog is now available
Experimental color-managed PDF export through Scribus
Many crash fixes and bugs fixed
Selectors and CSS dialog
The Selectors and CSS dialog that was hidden and labelled as
'experimental' in Inkscape 1.0 is now available from the Object
menu in 1.0.1. This new dialog allows users to edit a CSS stylesheet
for the document and also to select all objects with a certain CSS
selector, thus providing a replacement for the Selection Sets
dialog, that had to be removed for Inkscape 1.0. Scribus PDF export
An experimental PDF export extensions was added that uses Scribus
1.5.5+ if it can be found in the path. You'll need to use a color
profile in the SVG file and make sure to double-check the exported
image, as there are many SVG features not supported by Scribus.
