New versions of Applications bring more features and better-designed software that increases the usability and stability of apps like Dolphin, Konsole, Kate, Okular, and all your other favorite KDE utilities. Our aim is to ensure you remain productive, and to make KDE software easier and more enjoyable for you to use."); ?></p>

+
+<p><?php i18n("Dolphin is KDE's file and folder explorer which you can now launch from anywhere using the new global <keycap>Meta + E</keycap> shortcut. There is also a new feature that minimizes clutter on your desktop. When Dolphin is already running, if you open folders with other apps, those folders will open in a new tab in the existing window instead of a new Dolphin window. Note that this behavior is now on by default, but it can be disabled."); ?></p>
+
+<p><?php i18n("The information panel (located by default to the right of the main Dolphin panel) has been improved in several ways. You can, for example, choose to auto-play media files when you highlight them in the main panel, and you can now select and copy the text displayed in the panel. If you want to change what the information panel shows, you can do so right there in the panel, as Dolphin does not open a separate window when you choose to configure the panel."); ?></p>

+<h3><?php i18n("Gwenview"); ?></h3>
+
+<p><?php i18n("Gwenview is KDE's image viewer, and in this release the developers have improved its thumbnail viewing feature across the board. Gwenview can now use a \"Low resource usage mode\" that loads low-resolution thumbnails (when available). This new mode is much faster and more resource-efficient when loading thumbnails for JPEG images and RAW files. In cases when Gwenview cannot generate a thumbnail for an image, it now displays a placeholder image rather than re-using the thumbnail of the previous image. The problems Gwenview had with displaying thumbnails from Sony and Canon cameras have also been solved."); ?></p>
+
+<p><?php i18n("Apart from changes in the thumbnail department, Gwenview has also implemented a new “Share” menu that allows sending images to various places, and correctly loads and displays files in remote locations accessed using KIO. The new version of Gwenview also displays vastly more EXIF metadata for RAW images."); ?></p>

+<h3><?php i18n("Okular"); ?></h3>
+
+<p><?php i18n("Developers have introduced many improvements to annotations in Okular, KDE's document viewer. Apart from the improved UI for annotation configuration dialogs, line annotation can now have various visual flourishes added to the ends, allowing them to be turned into arrows, for example. The other thing you can do with annotations is expand and collapse them all at once."); ?></p>
+
+<p><?php i18n("Okular's support for EPub documents has also received a push in this version. Okular doesn't crash anymore when attempting to load malformed ePub files, and its performance with large ePub files has improved significantly. The list of changes in this release includes improved page borders and Presentation mode's Marker tool in High DPI mode."); ?></p>

+<h3><?php i18n("Kate"); ?></h3>
+
+<p><?php i18n("Thanks to our developers, three annoying bugs have been squashed in this version of KDE's advanced text editor. Kate once again brings its existing window to the front when asked to open a new document from another app. The \"Quick Open\" feature sorts items by most recently used, and pre-selects the top item. The third change is in the \"Recent documents\" feature, which now works when the current configuration is set up not to save individual windows’ settings."); ?></p>
+
+<h3><?php i18n("Konsole"); ?></h3>
+
+<p><?php i18n("The most noticeable change in Konsole, KDE's terminal emulator application, is the boost to the tiling feature. You can now split the main pane any which way you want, both vertically and horizontally. The subpanes can then be split again however you want. This version also adds the ability to drag and drop panes, so you can easily rearrange the layout to fit your workflow."); ?></p>
+
+<p><?php i18n("Besides that, the Settings window has received an overhaul to make it clearer and easier to use."); ?></p>

+<p><?php i18n("Spectacle is KDE's screenshot application that acquires more and more interesting features with each new version. This version is no exception, introducing new features that have been worked into the time delay functionality of Spectacle. When taking a time-delayed screenshot, Spectacle displays the remaining time before the screenshot is taken in its window title, and makes it visible in its Task Manager item. Spectacle's Task Manager button also shows a progress bar, so you can keep track of when the snap will be taken."); ?></p>

You can, for example, change the speed of a clip in the timeline with Shift+Resize, or activate the thumbnail preview of video clips by holding Shift and moving the mouse over a clip thumbnail in the project bin. Developers have also put a lot of effort into usability by making 3-point editing operations consistent with other video editors, which you will surely appreciate if you're switching to Kdenlive from another editor."); ?></p>
