[Pinta](https://www.pinta-project.com/) 是一款[开源绘画应用，适用于 Linux](https://itsfoss.com/open-source-paint-apps/)、Windows 和 macOS。你可以用它来进行自由手绘/素描。你也可以用它在现有的图片上添加箭头、方框、文字等。

日前，Pinta 1.7 版本在时隔近 5 年后发布。让我们来看看新版本中都有哪些功能。


### Pinta 1.7 的新功能


以下是最新版本的 Pinta 带来的新功能：


* 可以在图片之间切换的标签视图
* 增加了一个平滑擦除工具
* 拖放 URL 以在 Pinta 中下载并打开图像进行编辑
* 铅笔工具可以在不同的混合模式之间切换
* 按住 Ctrl 键可以缩放“选定移动”工具
* 矩形选择工具现在在选区的每个角落显示不同的箭头光标
* 提高了与选区互动时的性能，特别是对大图像而言


还有许多 bug 修复，这应该会改善整个 Pinta 的体验。你可以在[官方发布说明](https://www.pinta-project.com/releases/1-7)中了解更多变化。


### 在 Ubuntu 和其他 Linux 发行版上安装 Pinta 1.7


对于 Ubuntu 和基于 Ubuntu 的 Linux 发行版，有一个[官方 PPA 可用](https://launchpad.net/~pinta-maintainers/+archive/ubuntu/pinta-stable)。如果你使用的是 Ubuntu 18.04 或 20.04，可以使用这个 PPA。


打开一个终端，使用下面的命令来添加新的仓库。你会被要求输入你的密码。你可能已经知道，当你在终端中输入密码时，不会有任何显示。只要输入密码，然后按回车键就可以了。



```
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pinta-maintainers/pinta-stable

```

在 Ubuntu 18.04 和更高版本上已不再需要，但其他一些发行版可能需要更新缓存：



```
sudo apt update

```

现在用这个命令安装最新版本的 Pinta：



```
sudo apt install pinta

```

好的是，如果你之前安装了 Pinta 1.6，它就会更新到新版本。


#### 移除 Pinta


要删除通过 PPA 安装的 Pinta，请使用此命令：



```
sudo apt remove pinta

```

你还应该[删除此 PPA](https://itsfoss.com/how-to-remove-or-delete-ppas-quick-tip/)：



```
sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:pinta-maintainers/pinta-stable

```

#### 在其他发行版上安装 Pinta


在我上次检查时，Pinta 1.7 还没有在 Fedora 或 AUR 上出现。你可以等待一段时间，或者下载源码自己试试。

Pinta 团队也更新了用户指南，提供了详细的文档。如果你是新手或者想深入使用 Pinta，可以参考[本用户指南](https://www.pinta-project.com/user-guide/)进行参考。


### 结束语


我很高兴能看到 Pinta 的新版本。它是我编辑图像的常用工具，可以为教程添加箭头、方框和文字。最近我使用 [Shutter](https://itsfoss.com/install-shutter-ubuntu/) 来达到这个目的，但有了这个新版本，我也许会再次改用 Pinta。


你呢？你使用 Pinta 吗，或者你过去用过它吗？你期待使用新版本吗？

OK
*Brief: Open source painting and drawing application has a new release after more than 5 years. The new release fixes numerous bugs and adds new features.*

[Pinta](https://www.pinta-project.com/) is an [open source drawing application for Linux](https://itsfoss.com/open-source-paint-apps/), Windows and macOS. You can use it for freehand drawing/sketching. You may also use it to add arrows, boxes, text etc on an existing image.

![Pinta 1.7](https://itsfoss.com/content/images/wordpress/2020/08/pinta-1-7-800x517.png)

Pinta version 1.7 was released a few days ago after a gap of almost five years. Let’s see what do we have in the new version.

## New features in Pinta 1.7

Here are the new features the latest version of Pinta brings:

- Tab view to switch between images
- Addition of a Smooth Erase tool
- Drag and drop URL to download and open the image in Pinta for editing
- The Pencil tool can switch between different blend modes
- ‘Move Selected’ tool can be scaled by holding Ctrl
- The Rectangle Select tool now shows different arrow cursors at each corner of the selection
- Performance improvements when interacting with selections, particularly for large images

There are numerous bug fixes as well and this should improve the overall Pinta experience. You can learn about more changes in the [official release note](https://www.pinta-project.com/releases/1-7).

## Installing Pinta 1.7 on Ubuntu and other Linux distributions

For Ubuntu and Ubuntu-based Linux distributions, there is an [official PPA available](https://launchpad.net/~pinta-maintainers/+archive/ubuntu/pinta-stable). If you are using Ubuntu 18.04 or 20.04, you can use this PPA.

Open a terminal and use the following command to add the new repository. You’ll be asked to enter your password. You probably already know that when you type password in terminal, nothing is displayed. Just type the password and press enter.

`sudo add-apt-repository ppa:pinta-maintainers/pinta-stable`


Not required on Ubuntu 18.04 and higher version anymore but some other distributions may need to update the cache:

`sudo apt update`


Now install the latest version of Pinta using this command.

`sudo apt install pinta`


Good thing here is that if you had Pinta 1.6 installed previously, it gets updated to the new version.

### Removing Pinta

To remove Pinta installed via PPA, use this command:

`sudo apt remove pinta`


You should also [delete the PPA](https://itsfoss.com/how-to-remove-or-delete-ppas-quick-tip/):

`sudo add-apt-repository -r ppa:pinta-maintainers/pinta-stable`


### Installing Pinta on other distributions

When I last checked Pinta 1.7 wasn’t available for Fedora or AUR yet. You may wait for some time or download the source code and try it on your own.

Pinta team has also refreshed its user guide with detailed documentation. If you are new to Pinta or if you want to use it extensively, you may refer to [this user guide](https://www.pinta-project.com/user-guide/) for reference.

**Conclusion**

I am happy to see a new release of Pinta. It was my go-to tool for editing images to add arrows, boxes and text for tutorials on It’s FOSS. I use [Shutter](https://itsfoss.com/install-shutter-ubuntu/) for this purpose these days but with this new release, I might perhaps switch to Pinta again.

What about you? Do you use Pinta or have you used it in the past? Are you looking forward to use the new version?
