The second release candidate of Butterfly 2.5.3 is now available.

This is a small but important follow-up release that fixes a few editing and file list issues found after the first 2.5.3 release candidate.

Highlights:

  • 🎯 Better selection hit detection
  • 🔷 Polygon tool fix
  • 📁 Recent files cleanup

Butterfly 2.5.3-rc.1 focuses on making selection, shape editing, and recent file handling more reliable. Please test this release candidate and report any remaining bugs you find.

Better selection hit detection

#1118 #1109

Raycasting on rotated elements has been fixed, making selection behavior more predictable when working with rotated content.

The lasso selection tool now also handles non-convex polygons correctly, fixing cases where irregular selections could intersect incorrectly.

Polygon tool fix

The polygon tool toolbar now correctly updates the element you are currently editing.

Recent files cleanup

#1114

Moved or renamed files no longer behave strangely in recent files.
