Darktable 4.0.0 is Here with a Revamped UI and Improved Color Saturation
======
darktable 4.0.0 release is here as a major upgrade with new features, simplified UI, and other enhancements.
![darktable][1]
Recently, the developers unveiled new stable release as an upgrade over its 3.8.x series.
The latest upgrade is about new features, bug fixes, and significant changes.
### darktable 4.0: Whats New?
With darktable 4.0, we have a lot of feature additions and some impactful rework on the user interface.
Let me mention the key highlights here:
**Note:** This is a major upgrade with a new library and configuration, not compatible with the older version. So, you need to take a backup of your work before proceeding.
#### Color and Exposure Mapping
Within the exposure and color calibration modules, you now get the ability to define and save a target color/exposure for the color pickers.
This should help you match source objects in the image and ensure the color consistency of an object across a batch of photos.
#### UI Rework
![darktable][2]
The user interface has undergone a revamp to improve the look/feel. Starting with the default theme being changed to “**Elegant Grey**“.
Overall, padding, margins, color, alignment, and icons, everything has received a makeover. New collapsible sections (channel mixer rgb, exposure, color calibration) have also been added to make the UI cleaner, and more accessible.
You will find numerous subtle changes for a better layout.
#### Performance Changes
Several optimizations have been added to the release while simplifying the user preferences.
You also get to change the performance configuration without requiring to restart darktable.
#### Improved Color Saturation
![darktable][3]
The addition of Filmic v6 (a new color science) helps for more saturated colors, especially in blue skies.
Also, color-grading should be safer considering it can be recovered in the least-destructive way, as mentioned in the announcement post. In addition to that, a new information color space has been designed for artistic saturation changes.
Overall, you should be happy about this releases refinements to the saturation control.
#### Other Changes
Some other notable changes include:
* A new “guided Laplacian” method has been added to the highlight reconstruction module.
* Global color picker tool improvements
* A new contrast parameter
* A new collection filters module
* Support for EXR 16-bit (half) float export has been added.
You may go through all the technical details in its [official announcement post][4].
### Download darktable 4.0.0
You can get the latest version using the Flatpak package on [Flathub][5]. When writing this, the Snap package wasnt updated.
In either case, you can also choose to use the tar.xz file available in its [GitHub releases section][6].
