Microsoft updates Win11 printmaking application: natively supports dark mode and optimizes zoom controls

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizen EdgeOS for the clue delivery! CTOnews.com, June 2, Microsoft today released a preview update for Canary and Dev channels, while also introducing a new Paint application for the preview, which natively supports dark mode.

Win11 users of Canary and Dev channels can upgrade the drawing application to version 1.2304.17.0, and can automatically switch dark and light themes according to system settings.

This update also optimizes the zoom control to make it more flexible for users to control the view of the content on the canvas. Based on the default classic preset, you can zoom in and out more finely by adjusting the zoom slider, or you can customize the zoom value.

CTOnews.com learned from the report that the image properties are now more in line with the design style of Windows 11, and the new dialog box introduces a number of accessibility and usability improvements to improve the support for keyboard shortcuts.
