+\title What's New
+\page whatsnew.html
+
+\section1 New Features in Qt 3D Studio 2.8
+
+\section2 Image Filtering
+
+It is now possible to specify
+\l{studio-inspector-palette.html#Image Properties}{minification and magnification filters} for
+the Images. This enables mipmapping for the textures.
+
+\section2 Custom Material and Effect Textures
+
+The Custom Material and Effect Textures have been converted to use Images. This means that the same
+image properties as previously only available for the standard materials can now be used to change
+the texture properties for the user-defined shaders. In order to support the image transformation,
+new per-texture uniforms and functions have been added to access transformed texture coordinates and
+texture sample. See \l{custom-material-reference.html#Accessing Textures with Image Transformations}
+{Accessing Textures with Image Transformations} how to use them in the shaders.
+
+When old presentation is opened for the first time with Studio Editor, it needs to convert
+the old texture paths into Images. If the presentation has sub-presentations they should be opened
+separately to ensure that the whole presentation has the same presentation version.
+
+Controlling the Custom property texture using API has been changed to reflect this change. They
+can now be controlled the same way as standard material textures.
+See \l {custom-materials-effects.html#Controlling Custom Properties}{Controlling Custom Properties}
+for more details.
+
+\section2 Timeline Signals
+
+It is now possible to trigger actions from timeline using the new
+\l{studio-basic-objects-palette.html#Signal}{Signal} type.
