Bug Fixes

Color

  • ID 612103 - Mari would pick and display an incorrect color when the Blending and Picking colorspaces did not match.

Node Graph

  • ID 564017 - Node attributes promoted through two groups would disappear from top-level properties after changes to the lowest subgraph.

  • ID 612104 - Backdrop nodes would incorrectly leave artifacts in the Node Graph palette when resized and moved.

Performance

  • ID 613278 - Setting a custom colorspace shader transform code snippet would cause Mari to freeze.

Preferences

Known Issues

Roller Brush

  • ID 604213 - When images are used as Roller Brush Bitmaps, editing their colorspace has no effect on the brush's output until a setting in the Tool Properties palette > Bitmap section has been edited.

2D Paint Mode

  • ID 524361 - Switching tabs between 2D/3D sets the 2D camera to an incorrect position.

System Requirements

Note:  Mari increases its level of performance with newer, more advanced hardware configurations. However, Mari is tested and capable of operating on many older, prior-generation systems. For this reason we are listing below-minimum requirements, which are recommended, and on which tests have been performed. Your particular needs may vary from that of other users.

Officially Supported Operating Systems

  • Windows 11 64-bit
  • Linux 64-bit operating system (Rocky/RHEL 9)

Note:  Linux Desktop Managers
Mari is officially tested on GNOME. While it generally performs well on other desktop managers, most of our bug fixes will target this. We would be interested to know if there are any other preferred desktop managers to consider in the future so feel free to share your specifications with our Support Team at support@foundry.com
