New in Perforce P4Merge 2023.1 (Feb 28, 2023)
- New functionality:
- This release of P4Merge has been upgraded to use the Qt6 Framework. This allows us to officially support additional platforms, among them is support for Windows 11 and the availability of Universal builds for MacOS. These will provide native support for arm64 processor platforms as well as Intel platforms. Note: Qt6 has high DPI monitor support always enabled on Windows. As a result, when upgrading from a previous version of P4V, some of the existing placement and sizes of dialogs/windows may be reset. You can also adjust the font type and size in Preferences->Fonts->Application font, if you'd like to further customize P4V.
