| 2026-11-12 | minor | Explicit editing-data import keeps a single artboard beyond a capped 14,400 pt PDF page (#6865), with a warning; automatic mode stays unchanged. Scores and estimates unchanged. |
| 2026-11-12 | minor | PDF import (#5235): a glyph with no advance in a font the file writes horizontally (a vowel sign or anusvara set over its letter) stays on its line instead of opening as vertical type of its own. A line of type in an Indic script (U+0900 to U+0DFF) is set again after it is read and compared with the glyphs the file drew: when it would draw other glyphs or put them elsewhere (a vowel sign the file draws before its consonant, a conjunct the file doesn't name), the line keeps the file's glyphs as outlines, with a note. Indic type in a font that isn't installed never draws as the file does, so it keeps the file's glyphs too; other type in such a font still shows in the fallback font (#4568). Tests: `crates/pdf/src/tests/reshaped.rs`. Scores unchanged. |
| 2026-11-12 | minor | Save refusal follow-up (#6146): changed format opens its Save options; unchanged format retains original options. Focused UI regressions passed, including the format-change case that failed before the fix; native panel acceptance pending. Scores and estimates unchanged. |
| 2026-11-11 | minor | Newly imported SVG/SVGZ titles use the imported-text rules: generated Untitled names and control-only titles give the filename fallback, other control characters are removed, and titles are limited to 65,536 characters. Native and Preserve Editing titles remain unchanged (#3626). |

list, an absolute path or a `file:` URL outside the roots (any case of `file:`, `%XX` escapes decoded; a URL that
names another host is always left out), and `~`, a path under `~` or a path that starts with `./` or `../`

roots shows as `loaded/<file name>` wherever `ui_inspect` and `ui.docking` name it: its id, its panel's id, the
Color Guide's `ui.color_guide_limit` and a closed panel's key in `ui.docking_hidden`, also when its panel is
closed. When another hidden library has the same file name, the libraries take `loaded/<file name>`,
`loaded/<file name> (2)`, `(3)` and so on in the order of their full ids (the libraries loaded in this session
first, then those only the UI state names), and each one keeps its id in both replies and in the library
commands below. The other entries keep their order, and the app's own state is not changed.
Color Guide's `ui.color_guide_limit`, a closed panel's key in `ui.docking_hidden` and the `library` and `panel`
params of a recorded action's steps in `ui.action_sets`, and the keys of shortcut overrides (`panel:<panel id>`

panel is closed. A path written with
either separator counts as a path, also one saved on another platform, and outside Windows a path that starts
with a drive (`C:`) or a `\` counts as outside the roots. Outside Windows, any other path keeps a `\` in its
file name (`/libs/a\b.ase` shows as `loaded/a\b.ase`), and a reply matches it only as written, not with `/`
in place of the `\`. When another hidden library has the same
file name, the libraries take `loaded/<file name>`, `loaded/<file name> (2)`, `(3)` and so on in the order they
are first shown. Libraries first shown in the same reply are numbered in the order of their full ids, the
libraries loaded in this session first, then those only the UI state names. Each one keeps its id for the rest
of the session in both replies and in the library commands below, also after another library with the same
file name is loaded. A hidden library skips an id that a library loaded without a path already has, and only a
library loaded later from data under that file name, which takes the id itself, moves a hidden one to the next
free number. The other entries keep their order, and the app's own state is not changed. A request may name such a library or its panel by the id
shown in a `panel`, `library` or `panels` param, in a docking destination (`anchor`, `target`, `before`, `onto`,
`above`, `below`) and in `window.panel.layout`'s `action` (`ui.set {panel: "library:swatches:loaded/<file name>"}`
reopens its panel), and the reply to such a request shows that id and file name wherever the library's id or path
appears, an error included. Every reply under the read roots shows a hidden library's id as the id shown and its
path as the file name in every string and key, the status text (`ui.status`), dialogs, the command palette query
(`ui.palette_query`), a script's report (`scriptReport`), a screenshot's reply and the error from an internal
fault included, for the libraries hidden before the request ran and after it. The path is also matched with `%XX` escapes as a `file:`
URL writes it, and on Windows in any case of its letters; a `file:` URL of an absolute path is shown as the file
name alone, without `file:` or its host. A hidden id or path stays only where it begins
another loaded library's whole id with no `.` or `..` part, so a readable library's id that begins with a hidden one stays. A reply also shows a path outside the
read roots that the request sent by its file name, whether or not a library was loaded from it and whether the
request succeeded or failed, so that the reply reads the same either way. The one exception is the `path`
and `files` entries of a reply's result, a `command.batch` step's result included, that name the file the
request wrote inside the write roots at the path the request gave: they stay as
given, as for the save and export replies above. A path param (`path`, `file`,
`destinationFolder` and the like) counts with a relative path too. The hidden libraries' ids and paths are
matched before the paths the request sent, so a sent path written over part of a hidden library's path does not
keep that path in the reply. A relative path is not replaced where it ends a longer path (`/work/data/icon.svg`
keeps `data/icon.svg`), and the absolute path it reads as from the app's working folder is replaced too. Encoded file data, a base64 string under `dataBase64`,
`pngBase64`, `thumbnailBase64` or `thumbnail` (`library.get`, `document.pdfInfo`), is sent as it is.
- `swatch.library.list`, `brush.libraries`, `symbol.libraries` and `graphicStyle.libraries` list every library

`(2)`, `(3)` and so on as in `ui_inspect` when two have the same file name. That id finds the library in the

## Feature submission evidence
M4: Explicitly requested editing data keeps a single artboard larger than its 14,400 pt capped PDF page (#6865). Scores and estimates unchanged.
Numeric fields step on wheel hover without taking keyboard focus (#5949). Arrow keys still require focus; modifiers, units, limits, mixed values and existing rounding stay in the shared stepping path. Headless regressions in `tests/numfields.rs` cover hovered unfocused fields, focused fields, trackpad accumulation and panel scroll exclusion. Scores and estimates unchanged.
Raster rendering fits and preflattens curved stroke outlines more tightly only below four times the raster tolerance, retaining thin-band coverage without changing stroke weight or vector export geometry. Current cached character/object outlines, cropped long strokes, gradient clips and effect rasters share the helper; cropped-region reuse and guarded flattening remain. The unchanged `fractional_curved_strokes_retain_coverage_between_notches` regression covers fractional weights, rotation, phase, opacity and f32-rounded endpoints. This is a quality/cost tradeoff, not a speed claim. Scores and estimates unchanged.

The Glyphs panel highlights the character selected with the Type tool (a range's first character, else the one before the caret) and scrolls it into view as the selection moves (#4908; `panels::glyphs` tests); its Show menu lists Unicode ranges and Alternates for Current Selection, the selected character's alternate glyphs from the font's `GSUB` table. A double-click applies the OpenType feature that draws a variant to that character alone, or uses a glyph choice when no supported feature draws it; see the Glyphs panel row below for Entire Font and the joining limits. The glyph-cell pop-up of alternates is not there yet |
| Glyphs panel: alternates as OpenType feature values, unencoded glyphs | done | #5514, as [Replace characters with alternate glyphs](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/design-with-text/special-characters-glyphs/replace-characters-with-alternate-glyphs.html) describes (Show › Alternates For Current Selection; replace the selected character by double-clicking the glyph). A character-style feature takes a value (`"salt=2"`, the font's alternate number; `ss01`–`ss20`, `swsh`, `titl` and `aalt` too) in `features` and `featureChanges`, in SVG `font-feature-settings` (`"salt" 2`) and in native files as the plain string. Show › Entire Font applies an unencoded glyph the same way when it is an alternate of the selected character in its word, applies one no feature reaches (`A.salt` in a font with no `salt`) to the selected character as a glyph choice (it may not join), and dims the others with the reason in the tooltip (e.g. `yehfarsi.fina.alt2 belongs to ی (U+06CC) at the end of a word; your selection is ي (U+064A)`); an Arabic presentation form picked there inserts its letter so the word joins. Runs that differ only in their features shape as one piece of text, each run's features over its own characters, so a variant on one letter of an Arabic word keeps its neighbours' initial, medial and final forms and the letters still touch. The panel lists the alternates of the glyph the shaper makes for the selected character in its word (a medial letter shows medial variants), and a double-click applies the OpenType feature that draws the variant (`salt=N` or `ssNN`) to that character alone, in one undo step (`text.setRangeStyle`); a variant no feature reaches falls back to a replacement glyph (`text.setGlyphAlternate`), which its tooltip says may not join. Show › Entire Font also lists the glyphs no character maps, with their name or `gid N` and the feature that gives them. The text crate reads each face's `GSUB` once (alternate sets, single substitutions, the feature that reaches a glyph). Not done: alternates reached through contextual or ligature lookups, and features of the font that the style has no tag for (`cv01`–`cv99`, `hist`). Evidence: `tests::glyph_alternates` in the text crate (a fixture font with a medial teh at `salt=1` to `3`, the neighbours' forms, no gap; Kufi Murabba PIIIX when it is installed), `features::tests::feature_values_are_parsed_validated_and_shaped`, `tests::textedit::feature_values_are_set_replaced_and_saved`, the `panels::glyphs` tests. |
