 ## master
 
+- Fix incomplete stroke with some Bezier markers in CairoMakie and blurry strokes in GLMakie [#2961](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/2961)
 - Added the ability to use custom triangulations from DelaunayTriangulation.jl [#2896](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/2896).
 - Adjusted scaling of scatter/text stroke, glow and anti-aliasing width under non-uniform 2D scaling (Vec2f markersize/fontsize) in GLMakie [#2950](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/2950).
-- Fixed broken AA for lines with strongly varying linewidth [#2953](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/2953).
 - Scaled `errorbar` whiskers and `bracket` correctly with transformations [#3012](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/3012).
 - Updated `bracket` when the screen is resized or transformations change [#3012](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/3012).

 ## v0.19.6
 
 - Fixed broken AA for lines with strongly varying linewidth [#2953](https://github.com/MakieOrg/Makie.jl/pull/2953).
