Added support for defining custom image rendering scripts in JavaScript, C# or Python.
Added support for defining custom demosaicing scripts in JavaScript, C# or Python.
Added the Malvar-He-Cutler, GBTF and MLRI demosaicing algorithms.
Added support for selecting the default demosaicing algorithm.
Added support for pasting an image from the clipboard by keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+V on Windows/Linux, ⌘V on macOS).
Added support for copying an image to the clipboard by keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+C on Windows/Linux, ⌘C on macOS).
Added support for playing frames continuously with an adjustable frame rate.
Added support for opening multiple files as a single frame sequence.
Added support for shutting down the application by keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Q on Windows/Linux, ⌘Q on macOS).
Added support for opening TIFF images.
Added support for saving an image as TIFF.
Added support for showing or hiding the mean, median, min/max and shadow/highlight markers on histograms.
Added support for showing color information when moving the pointer over histograms.

Added support for parsing and applying the white balance recorded in DNG images.
Added support for parsing and applying the color matrix recorded in DNG images.
Added support for parsing and applying the linearization table recorded in DNG images.
Added support for specifying the effective bits of images with ABGR_16161616, ARGB_16161616, BGRA_16161616 and RGBA_16161616 formats.
Added a button on the toolbar for updating the application when a new version is available.
Improved the performance of the Bilinear demosaicing algorithm.
Improved the performance of saving images in PNG format.
Added support for saving the rendered image while the next image is being rendered.
Added support for adjusting the width of the panel of histograms.
The name generated for new profile includes the name of camera by default.
The application no longer needs to be restarted when the Chinese environment changes after modifying the Language option.
Prevented the displayed image from being cleared when the memory usage of rendered images reaches the limit.
Applied the new window style of macOS 26.

The effective bits of image planes can no longer be specified when a color table is applied to the rendering, such as for a DNG image which carries a linearization table.

Fixed the incorrect color value range of the selected pixel shown for images with RGB/ARGB formats such as BGRA_8888 and RGB_565.
Fixed the failure to detect the image file format when it cannot be identified from the file name (e.g. a file with an incorrect extension).
Fixed the low contrast of some DNG images caused by their black level not being read correctly.
Fixed the incorrect colors of DNG images with the GBRG (4x4) Bayer pattern.
Fixed the failure to load some ICC color profiles which caused the screen color space of certain wide-gamut displays to be incorrectly detected as sRGB.
Fixed the incorrect colors of images which use the BT.601 (525-line, SDTV) or BT.601 (625-line, SDTV) color space caused by an incorrect white point.
Fixed the color space of an image being incorrectly encoded when saving it as JPEG or PNG, and incorrectly decoded when reopening it, for color spaces such as BT.2100 (HLG transfer, HDR-TV) and BT.2100 (PQ transfer, HDR-TV).
Fixed the failure to use Noto Sans in the Chinese environment.
Fixed the image not being rendered when requesting rendering again before the current rendering completes.
Fixed the Treat as Linear Color Space option being turned off automatically after saving the rendering profile.
Minor bug fixing.
