• user interaction, rendering and stability fixes in Plasma, the KDE desktop shell;
• PDF backend fixes in the document viewer Okular;
• fixes in Gwenview, the image viewer's thumbnailing, more robust retrieval and display of images with broken metadata;
• stability and interaction fixes in KMail.

    auto-generated names and format. The user can also choose to show the
    scanned image before saving.
