# 8.0.0 The 8.0 release brings several API simplifications. Some of them are not backwards compatible, so make sure to read the [upgrade notes](./upgrade-notes.md). The new StadiaMaps source replaces the Stamen source, because Stamen no longer hosts map tiles. Several WebGL improvements are also part of this release. And finally, a new loader API for image layers makes working with non-tiled raster data more modular and faster. #### List of all changes See below for a complete list of features and fixes. * Revert "Remove lineCap, it is useless on closed paths" (by @MoonE in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15064) * Updates for the 7.5.2 release (by @openlayers in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15067) * Support XYM geometry layout in WebGL vector layer (by @jahow in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15063) * Detect static image loaders by arguments length (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15039) * Add OL STAC example (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15042) * Remove ol/style/Icon's imgSize property (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15059) * Remove WebGL helper classes from the API (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15061) * Add OL STAC to 3rd party page (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15041) * Fix parameter description (by @fredj in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15050) * Do not download fonts, use system fonts (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15046) * Remove deprecated ol/AssertionError class (by @fredj in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15047) * Set correct maxZoom in OSM Vector Tiles example (by @mike-000 in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15044) * Fix typo in export name (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15038) * Update ol-mapbox-style and use MapboxVectorLayer in test (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15037) * Wait until font loading has finished (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15032) * Allow to set GeoTiff projection (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15036) * Remove ol/layer/MapboxVector to avoid a circular dependency (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14870) * Keep declutter tree for hit detection (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15028) * Make BingMaps source 'placeholderTiles' optional (by @adube in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15027) * Fix various typos (by @luzpaz in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15021) * Styling with logical operators and type assertions (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15003) * Move inlineDynamicImports options to output (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15016) * Release v7.5.1 (by @openlayers in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15017) * Bump version to 8.0.0-dev (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15018) * Fix OGCVectorTile source types (by @MoonE in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15015) * Use .transform() instead of .setTransform() when rendering image or text (by @mike-000 in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14483) * Fix word repetition in example descriptions (by @mike-000 in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15012) * Fix return type of Layer#renderFrame (by @MoonE in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15005) * WebGL / Rework symbol rendering to include circles with outlines, shapes and icons (by @jahow in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14883) * Loader based API for image sources using ImageBitmap (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14945) * Fix text placement line hit detection for pixelRatio !== 1 (by @ahocevar in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15001) * Expression based styling (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14780) * Do not override `caption-side` in featureInfo styles (by @mike-000 in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15002) * Generate provenance statement when publishing package (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/15000) * Doc updates (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14999) * Improved jsdoc types and docstrings in Base.js (by @oshawa-connection in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14998) * Add notes on upgrading to StadiaMaps source (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14997) * Direct access to object properties (by @tschaub in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14996) * Reflect that Stamen styles are hosted by Stadia Maps (by @stadiamaps in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14989) * Updates for the 7.5.0 release (by @openlayers in https://github.com/openlayers/openlayers/pull/14995)
