# SkiaForUnity - New Release (v1.0.0.Pre-2)

We are excited to announce the release of SkiaForUnity v1.0.0.Pre-2! This new version brings several enhancements, bug fixes, and exciting features to enhance your experience with Skia and Unity. Whether you're a seasoned user or just starting with SkiaForUnity, we believe this release will provide you with an even more powerful and enjoyable development environment.

## Release Highlights

1. **Rendering Skottie Animation on Edit Mode in Unity**: With this release, SkiaForUnity introduces the ability to render Skottie animations directly within the Unity Editor. This feature allows you to preview and fine-tune your animations without entering Play mode, streamlining your workflow and saving development time.

2. **Introducing SkottiePlayer.cs**: SkiaForUnity now includes the new `SkottiePlayer.cs` class, which enables you to play animations with ease. This class provides functionalities such as animation playback, looping, autoplay, and playing animations with specific Lottie markers. It simplifies the integration of Skottie animations into your Unity projects and gives you greater control over the playback experience.

3. **OnAnimationFinished Delegate**: To enhance your animation control, we have added the `OnAnimationFinished` delegate. This delegate is called when an animation reaches its end, allowing you to trigger specific actions or events based on the completion of the animation. It provides a seamless way to handle animation completion and take further actions in your application.

Hi,
We are developing graphics editor in unity using svg vector graphics package. We want to render text svg text.
Is this package compatible with some skiasharp extensions as https://github.com/wieslawsoltes/Svg.Skia, https://github.com/toptensoftware/RichTextKit, ... ?
and how to compile some skiasharp extended package ?

Best regards

 

Interesting!
One thing that confuses me though: On the github, the Get Started section explicitly aims at iOS and isn't general. Does that imply anything for other platforms?

 

Don't run on Mac M1 due to code signing
