+title: "Compass v0.12 (Release Candidate) is Released"
+description: "Compass 0.12: Flexible Sprites, Rails Integration"
+author: chris
+---
+
+Compass 0.12 release candidate is out! Install it now:
+
+    $ (sudo) gem install compass --pre
+
+This release is primarily to support the Rails Asset Pipeline which
+required major changes to the Compass internals. If you use rails
+with Compass please read the [blog post about the new compass-rails
+gem][compass-rails].
+
+In addition to the rails improvements this release contains many updates
+to Compass Sprites:
+
+* **Sprite Layouts**: `vertical` (default), `horizontal`, `diagonal`, and `smart`
+  layouts are now available. Different layouts may allow you to use
+  sprites more easily with differing design requirements. The `smart`
+  layout will efficiently pack sprites of different sizes -- resulting
+  in smaller file sizes. To select a layout set the
+  `$<spritename>-layout` variable to your desired layout name.
+* **Sprite Load Path**: Sprite source files can now be stored in more locations than
+  just your images directory. To add sprite locations in your compass
+  configuration: `sprite_load_path << 'my/sprite/folder'
+* **Sprite output location**: If you need to output sprites to a
+  location other than the images directory set `generated_images_dir`,
+  `generated_images_path`, `http_generated_images_dir`, and
+  `http_generated_images_path` in your compass configuration according
+  to your needs. You can refer to images in your generated images
+  directory using the `generated-image-url()` function.
+
+Additionally there are many new CSS3 improvements, bug fixes, and other
+small enhancements that you can read about in the
+[CHANGELOG](/CHANGELOG/).
+
+What's next for Compass? The Sass 3.2 release is coming soon and I'd
+very much like the 0.13 release of compass to take advantage of the
+great features that it offers. Additionally, we're working on an
+extension registry where you can post your compass extensions and
+discover new ones. Lastly, we'll be extracting blueprint to a
+compass extension as that project seems to have stagnated. I'd say
+we're getting pretty close to a 1.0 release!
