+
+Over the last few releases,
+image scaling in `GC#drawImage()` has been progressively improved
+to always pick the best-available image source for the required scale.
+This includes high-resolution raster variants (e.g. `@2x`) and on-demand SVG rasterization.
+
+This release completes that work:
+
+- All `GC#drawImage()` overloads now apply high-quality scaling
+ consistently across all platforms.
+- Any `Transform` active on the `GC` is now taken into account
+ when choosing the image source and scaling method,
+ preventing blurry output when a non-identity transform is in use.
+
+You get sharper image rendering in custom-drawn widgets
+on HiDPI displays or when using zoom features,
+regardless of which `drawImage()` variant or platform is used.
