Highlights

SkiaSharp 1.53.0 uplifts to Skia m53 and reshapes several core enums and APIs. This release realigns SkiaSharp with upstream Skia m53. Several enum values shift, decode overloads that took a preferred colour type are gone, and a handful of legacy image-decoder types are removed. Check the API diff below before upgrading.

Breaking Changes

• Core enum values renumbered — SKAlphaType and SKColorType members were renumbered to match Skia m53. Any code that persisted or compared the raw integer values (for example, from serialised data) needs to be re-checked; code that uses the named members is unaffected.
• Preferred-colour-type decode overloads removed — The SKBitmap.Decode and DecodeBounds overloads that took an SKColorType hint are gone. Decode into the default colour type and convert with SKBitmap.CopyTo or SKPixmap if a specific format is needed.
• Parameterless SKCanvas.Save and single-argument clip/save-layer overloads removed — Several thin SKCanvas overloads (Save(), ClipPath(path), ClipRect(rect), SaveLayer(paint), SaveLayer(limit, paint)) were removed in favour of the fuller signatures that take antialias / clip-op / bounds arguments. Pass the previous default values explicitly.
• SKImageDecoder family removed — SKImageDecoder and its companion enums (SKImageDecoderFormat, SKImageDecoderMode, SKImageDecoderResult) were removed along with the upstream Skia type. Use SKBitmap.Decode or SKCodec instead.
• Miscellaneous API removals — SKImageFilter.CreateDownSample, the public IntPtr-handle constructor on SKPictureRecorder, and the SKSurfaceProps.PixelGeometry setter were removed. See the SkiaSharp API diff for the full list.

Engine

• Uplift to Skia m53 — The bundled Skia engine moves to milestone 53, picking up upstream rendering fixes and API changes.
