     \title What's New in Qt 5.13
     \brief Lists the new features in Qt.

     \section1 New Features in Qt 5.13

     \section2 Qt 3D Module

     \list
       \li Added support for importing and exporting \OpenGL texture handles.
       \li Added framegraph nodes for fence objects.
       \li Added priority based picking.
       \li Added initial glTF 2.0 scene import support.
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt Bluetooth Module

     \list
       \li Windows: Removed the need for pairing in order to discover and
           connect.
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt Core Module

     \list
       \li Clang: Added a new configure switch \c {-coverage}, useful for
           fuzzing.
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt GUI Module

     \list
       \li Added QImage::convertTo(), a new function for converting an image
           in-place.
       \li QPainterPath: Added support for clear, reserve and capacity methods
           with the same semantics as QVector::clear() (preserving allocations).
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt Location Module

     \list
       \li Added support for \l [QML]{geopolygon}{geopolygons} with holes,
           reflected in \l [QML]{MapPolygon}{MapPolygons} and
           \l [QML]{MapPolygonObject}{MapPolygonObjects}.
       \li Introduced interoperability with \e GeoJSON, adding import/export
           functionality.
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt Network Module

     \list
       \li Windows: Added secure channel support for SSL sockets.

     \section2 Qt QML Module

     \list
       \li Improved support for enums declared in C++.
       \li JavaScript \e null as a binding value is now optimized at compile time.
       \li Implemented the generation of function tables on 64-bit Windows, making
           it possible to unwind the stack through JITed functions.
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt Quick Module

     \list
       \li Added support to \l [QML] TableView for hiding rows and columns.
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt Quick Controls 2 Module

     \list
       \li Added \l [QML] SplitView QML type.
       \li Added a cache property to icons.
     \endlist

     \section2 Qt Wayland Module

     \list
       \li Added a new client buffer integration for \c linux-dmabuf-unstable-v1.

     \endlist

     \section2 Qt WebEngine Module

     \list
       \li Updated to Chromium 73.
