Aperture 1.5.3 released: Thumbnail, full screen issues addressed

[Published Friday, April 20th]

Apple has released Aperture 1.5.3, a maintenance release for the photography post-production tool.

The new release sports enhancements in the following areas:

• Generation of thumbnails for adjusted images
• Entering and exiting Full Screen mode
• Working with large sets of keywords in the Keywords HUD
• Restoring from a vault

Specific issues addressed include:

• Previews now update properly when images are sent to an external editor.
• Leaf Aptus 22 and Aptus 75 images are now imported with the correct orientation.
• When folders are imported as projects, the folder structure is now correctly preserved when identically named subfolders are included in the hierarchy.
• Reconnecting referenced images that have been externally edited now works more reliably.
• Setting the ColorSync profile in the Aperture Print dialog now correctly suppresses color management settings in the Mac OS X Print dialog.

The new release is available through Software Update or as a 129.5 MB standalone download.
