What's New is an index, not a publisher: every entry below links to the vendor's own release notes, which are the authoritative source. Entries are labelled where they are hand-curated sample data, pre-releases, or drawn from a secondary source such as a developer blog.

Reuse: the summaries, labels and curation here are © What's New. Quote freely with attribution and a link back; wholesale republication of the corpus is not permitted — terms: https://whatsnew.fyi/terms. The vendors' own release notes remain their publishers'.

See the CHANGELOG .

###### Changed

- `DFLT_GVPRPATH`, a `$PATH`-like variable that gvpr uses to locate
  user-referenced files, is now computed at runtime instead of build time. This
  removes a barrier to relocating a Graphviz installation from one directory to
  another.
- In the CMake build system, whether GDK-dependent components are built or not
  can now be controlled by the `-DWITH_GDK={AUTO|ON|OFF}` option. #2714

###### Fixed

- Gvedit and Smyrna on MinGW can now correctly locate their supporting runtime
  data directories.
- The gvpr options `-v` for printing verbose messages is documented. This has
  been supported since Graphviz 2.30 but undocumented.
- When using the CMake build system, `DFLT_GVPRPATH` is no longer incorrectly
  missing a ".:" prefix.
- On macOS, processing graphs involving URLs with the Quartz plugin is once
  again possible. Previously this would crash. This was a regression in Graphviz
  13.0.1. #2712
- In gvpr, updating a map or deleting items from the map no longer triggers a
  use-after-free. #2707
