While our team is working on the awaited refactoring, we still managed to add 2 small usability improvements in the 18.04.1. version. First the safe zone overlay was improved so you can now easily spot the center of your frame:

Then we improved the default background color for the titler so that white text can easily be read without having to make further adjustments.

These changes were made during our great Paris sprint. At the same time, we are improving our packaging efforts, so you can find the following download options right now (besides official distro packages):

AppImage: the latest 18.04.1 version is available, now with support for Ladspa plugins

Flatpak: we are glad to announce the availability of Kdenlive on flathub, so it can now easily be installed on distributions supporting flatpak (thanks to Peter Eszlari).

Windows: Vincent Pinon worked on an update to the Windows version, so windows users can now test the latest 18.04.1.
