|

the app bar is the title bar by default only on a Wayland session without server-side decorations, such as GNOME, in a
|

window not opened through XWayland. Elsewhere the desktop draws the frame and the app bar has no caption buttons,
|

unless VectorCraft Title Bar on Every Desktop or `VECTORCRAFT_TITLEBAR=app` turns the app frame on (see below). The

caption buttons (Minimize, Maximize/Restore, Close) are 46 pt each. By default all three sit at the bar's right end.

On Linux and the BSDs, when the desktop leaves the window's frame to the app (a Wayland session without server-side
|

decorations, such as GNOME), the window is not opened through XWayland and `VECTORCRAFT_TITLEBAR` is unset, they
|

follow the `button-layout` key of `org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences`, read when the app starts: each button the key

names goes to the end it is listed on, in the listed order (the first one leftmost), and the buttons it does not name
|

are not drawn. When `gsettings` is missing or fails, or the key names none of `minimize`, `maximize` and `close`, all

three stay at the right end. An app frame turned on by `VECTORCRAFT_TITLEBAR=app` or by VectorCraft Title Bar on Every

- **Composite fonts that two documents define differently:** when two open documents each define a composite font (Type › Composite Fonts…) by the same name with different parts, each document draws and exports its type in its own definition: in a tiled or floating window drawn while the front document draws, when it is placed in a document that defines the name differently, and in an export made while another document is in front. Evidence: `tests::composite::nested_loans_of_one_name_use_each_documents_definition` and `threads_lending_one_name_at_once_use_their_own_definitions` (`crates/text`), `tests::fontchange::a_placed_document_draws_its_own_definition_of_a_name_the_page_defines` (`crates/render`).

- **Character-style Auto leading:** capture and explicit style attributes retain Auto as a reset, distinct from omitted leading. Redefine and later numeric updates preserve local leading overrides; the Character Styles marker recognizes Auto correctly. Regression assertions cover partial definitions, Undo/Redo and native save/load serialization. Public references: [Character and paragraph styles](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/character-paragraph-styles.html) and [Leading](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/line-character-spacing.html).

||||
- **Character-style numeric bounds:** `charStyle.new`, `charStyle.edit`, and `charStyle.setAttrs` accept size from 0.1 to 1296 pt, explicit leading from 0.1 to 5000 pt, horizontal and vertical scale from 1% to 10,000%, and baseline shift and Tate-chu-yoko offsets from -1296 to 1296 pt. Out-of-range input leaves the style and Undo history unchanged; Auto leading remains available. These limits match the Character panel controls.

- **Dragging a document tab out and a document window back (G7):** a document tab dragged more than 24 pt above or below the tab strip floats its document in a window under the pointer, and a document window dragged onto the tab strip goes back under the tabs ([public source](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/customizing-workspace.html)). A window inside the app's window is dragged by its title bar; an OS window by the document's tab at its top, and the window follows the pointer. The 24 pt distance and the tab at the top of an OS window are VectorCraft's own. Tests: `crates/ui-egui/src/doc_windows/tests.rs`.
|
||||
- **Reordering document tabs (G7, #5663):** a document tab dragged along the tab strip moves its document among the others ([public source](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/customizing-workspace.html)); a line marks the gap it goes in. The current document stays current, each document keeps its own zoom, centre and artboard, the views Window › New Window opened move with their document, and Window › Next/Previous Document follow the new order. `document.move` (`{from?, to}`) does the same from MCP, the control channel and recordings. `crates/ui-egui/src/tests/tab_reorder.rs`, `crates/engine/src/tests/document_move.rs`.
|
||||
- **Closing a background document tab:** closing a tab other than the current one (`file.close {index}`) keeps the current document current, and its tool keeps its state; closing the current tab still makes its neighbor current. `crates/engine/src/tests/document_close.rs`.
|
||||
- **Replacing a background document's content:** `Session::replace_document` on a tab other than the current one (the replacement File › Revert makes for the current tab) measures the new content's type in that document's own composite fonts at once, so that type has its measured bounds while the document is in the back. When that document becomes the current one unchanged, its type in those fonts is not measured again. `crates/engine/src/cmd/compositefonts/tests.rs`.
|
||||
- **Export and Import Preferences (#6435):** an optional VectorCraft feature. The Preferences dialog's Export Preferences… saves the applied preferences to a JSON file (`prefs.export`; the web build downloads it), and Import Preferences… applies such a file (`prefs.import`). The file leaves out the folder preferences. The import checks every value first and changes nothing on an error; it keeps the open document's units and records no undo step. The file format is VectorCraft's own. Tests: `crates/engine/src/tests/prefs_file.rs`, `crates/ui-egui/src/prefs_dialog/tests.rs`.

||||
- **Preferences › User Interface › Open Documents As Tabs (G7, #394):** checked by default, documents open under tabs in one document window ([public source](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/get-started/learn-the-basics/workspace-overview.html)). With the box cleared, each document opened or created afterwards opens in a floating window of its own, at the next cascade place, as Float in Window floats it; documents already open stay where they are, and checking the box again leaves floating documents in their windows. Tests: `crates/ui-egui/src/doc_windows/tests.rs`.
|
||||
- **Preferences search:** a Search Preferences field above the category list has the keyboard focus when the dialog opens, and Cmd/Ctrl+F gives it back; typing lists the settings it finds, and choosing one shows its category, as the [help page](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/get-started/preferences-and-settings/set-app-preferences.html) describes. VectorCraft's own rules: the field matches a setting's label, section or category, ignoring case, in the interface language or in English; the list replaces the categories while the field has text and shows every match, or "No settings found"; the chosen setting's row is highlighted and scrolled into view; Escape in the field with text clears it, and Escape in the empty field closes the dialog. The dialog's `__search` field (`ui.dialog.set`) holds the text. Tests: `crates/ui-egui/src/prefs_dialog/tests.rs`.

- Batch…: Override Export writes the files of an Export for Screens or Export Assets step into a folder for each source file or data set inside the destination folder, under the names the export gives them (`action.batch`). The folder and file names drop trailing periods and spaces (`a..svg` gives `a`). When two source files would get the same name that way (compared without case), or a later file's folder or file would take the name of an output an earlier file wrote, of a source file in the destination folder or, for data sets, of a file already there, Batch adds `-2`, `-3`… to the later one's name.

The file is VectorCraft's own action set file (`.vcactions`); a loaded set named like one in the panel gets the next free number.

- Actions panel menu: Save Actions… does not write a set with a step that sets a folder preference (the Fonts, Plug-ins, Templates and Recovery folders and the two scratch disks) to a folder, and names the action and the preference instead; an empty folder and the scratch disk choices Startup and None save. Export Preferences leaves out both scratch disks, and `ui.inspect` under automation read roots leaves such a folder outside them out of recorded steps. These are VectorCraft's own rules (`ui.actionSet.save`, `prefs.export`).
|

- Actions panel menu: Load Actions… also reads action sets saved as `.aia` files ([Actions panel overview](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/automate-actions/actions-panel-overview.html); `actionSet.read`, `ui.actionSet.load`). VectorCraft's own rules: the set comes in with all its actions. A step with a label and no recorded values comes in as the one menu command with the step's label, when that command is directly in a top menu, is what its menu bar item runs with no values and opens no dialog. A step that is off in the file stays excluded from playback. The other steps, recorded menu items included, are left out, and the status bar says how many.

- Actions panel: the panel menu's Action Options… renames the selected action and keeps its steps ([Actions panel overview](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/automate-actions/actions-panel-overview.html): the menu item opens a dialog that renames the action or gives it a function key and color; `ui.action.options`). It also sets the action's function key and color.
|

- Actions panel: Create New Action (bottom bar) and the panel menu's New Action… ask for the new action's name, set, function key and color, and Record adds the action and starts recording into it ([Create new actions](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/automate-actions/record-actions.html): the New Action dialog takes the action's name and the set it goes in; `ui.action.new`, `ui.action.play`). The function key (F1 to F15, with Ctrl or Command and Shift) plays the action. An action's function key plays the action even when a command has the same shortcut, and the command keeps it. VectorCraft's own rules, which the page does not cover: when several actions have the same key the first in panel order plays; a copied action has no key; New Action does not open while an action is recording. The color is kept with the action for Button Mode, which VectorCraft does not have yet.

- Variables: Import Data Sets… (`dataset.import`) reads tab-separated files as well as comma-separated ones. Every header cell is a variable, and the rows replace the document's data sets as Data Set 1, Data Set 2 and so on. An import error about a row's values gives the file line the row starts on.

- Variables: Import Data Sets… (`dataset.import`) defines the variables a file's header names that the document lacks, unbound. `#Shown` defines a visibility variable, `@Photo` defines an image variable, and a header without a prefix defines a text variable. A header that is a variable's exact name keeps naming it, and any other `%` header (graph data files) is refused.
|
||||
- Variables: Load Variable Library… in the Variables panel menu (`variable.loadLibrary`) replaces the document's variables and data sets with a variable library's, read from its XML file, in one undo step: every data set is deleted, and every variable is deleted with its bindings and values, except a text variable the library also declares, which stays bound so the library's data sets change its objects (#4136); then the library's other text variables are defined, unbound, and its data sets take the text of each value's `p` elements, one paragraph each. Variables of other kinds are left out with a warning that names their kinds.

This follows Illustrator's bar: while the Artboard tool is in use, it has options for resizing, duplicating and exporting artboards (the [Contextual Task Bar announcement](https://community.adobe.com/questions-652/contextual-task-bar-in-illustrator-2025-quick-actions-when-you-need-them-1546580); Rearrange and Export on the bar: [Managing Artboards in Illustrator](https://creativepro.com/managing-artboards-in-illustrator/)).

- The status bar translates the errors a script's `File` and `Folder` objects, `vc.run`, `$.evalFile`, the `$` object's properties and functions, `alert`, `confirm` and `prompt`, `vc.document` and `vc.log` raise, the limits a run can pass, and the errors of Drop Script Engine, and the line for a run that fails (a syntax error, a thrown error, a limit, a stop or an internal error, with the script's name, the line and column, the included file it is in and the files left written), in every language that translates every message. The script's name, paths, numbers, command ids and the text a script throws itself are shown as they are. A failure with no line and column, such as an error in code `eval` compiled, is shown with one colon after the script's name (`an_error_without_a_place_names_the_script_and_kind`). A message template that names a value twice matches only when both places hold the same text, so the line for a failed run is not taken for the message inside it (`a_repeated_placeholder_matches_the_same_text`). The untranslated-strings report also lists the messages the script host's `fail`, `value` and `over` helpers take and the errors the script interpreter throws, and a constant's text comes from the file or crate that declares it, so the Scripts menu's headers are not listed as messages (`script_errors_are_translated`, `script_host_errors_are_translated`, `message_scan_reads_script_interpreter_errors`, `message_scan_reads_constants_of_the_file_and_its_crate`, `message_scan_skips_test_modules_with_any_test_cfg`).

The report lists 40 Simplified Chinese messages: the composite font, justification order and Blob Brush connect end errors that open #7211, #7116 and #7330 translate, and two messages that no catalog has a row for yet.

- Edit › Undo and Edit › Redo, in the in-window and native menus, name the step in the interface language as the History panel lists it (`panels::history::step_name`), so when the catalog has no plain row for a step named after an effect, such as Feather, the menu shows the translation of the effect's menu row without its ellipsis (`undo_and_redo_name_the_step_as_the_history_panel_does`).
|
||||
- The History panel translates the undo step names the engine, the tools and the shell write as literals: the untranslated report (`untranslated_report`) lists any a complete catalog lacks, and a step whose catalog row exists only with an ellipsis (such as an effect's menu name) shows that row without the ellipsis.

The report lists 48 German messages; 38 of them are the composite font, select-a-path and justification order errors that open #7211, #7214 and #7116 translate.

- On Windows and Linux the app bar is the window's title bar (its own minimize, maximize and close buttons, drag to move, edges to resize), with the dragon app icon as the brand mark; dialogs and menus size to their content. As on a native menu bar, once one menu is open, moving the pointer onto another title opens that one.

- On Linux and the BSDs, when the desktop leaves the window's frame to the app (a Wayland session without server-side decorations, such as GNOME) and the window is not opened through XWayland, the app bar's window buttons follow the `button-layout` key of `org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences` ([schema](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gsettings-desktop-schemas/-/blob/master/schemas/org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences.gschema.xml.in)): Close alone at the right, all three at the left, or split between the ends, in the listed order with the first one leftmost.

System Title Bar and `VECTORCRAFT_TITLEBAR` take precedence over it, and `VECTORCRAFT_TITLEBAR` also takes precedence over System Title Bar for the run it is set in. Only the values `app`, `system` and `desktop` take precedence (case-sensitive, surrounding spaces ignored); any other value, such as `unknown`, is ignored and does not override System Title Bar.

A menu command with no default shortcut that needs a value a key press does not give, such as File › Document Setup › Units (`document.setUnits {units}`), is listed only while the user has changed its shortcut. A command stays listed when a menu bar item runs it without a value or when it opens a dialog run without one, as the Variables panel's commands do.
|
||||
- No two rows of Edit › Keyboard Shortcuts have the same English name (VectorCraft's own rule). A command that an item of the menu bar runs is listed under that item's menu path (Window › Swatch Libraries › Other Library…), a command whose id extends another command's id is listed under that command's label (Character Style Options › Reset Panel), and the rows that still share a name show their id after it, except the one row an item of the menu bar runs (File › New… and File › New… (file.new)). The search finds a row by the id it shows, and a message about a shortcut already in use names the other row with its group. Test `shortcut_editor::tests::no_two_entries_have_the_same_name`.

- **Blend spine Anchor Point tool (#2544):** on a selected blend, dragging a spine corner makes symmetric Smooth handles; the tool displays and picks existing spine handles when switched to, drags one independently or retracts it on click, and clicking a point with handles retracts both. The spine is edited live without moving its key objects. Windows native canvas checks and screenshots reviewed: symmetric and independent handles, corner/retraction, Shift constraints and perpendicular reshaping, tool switching, key preservation, Undo/Redo, save/reopen, hidden handles and overlapping Path/Blend priority (PR #2643). Behaviour reference: [public path-editing documentation](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/adjust-path-segments.html).

- **Blend steps of brushed strokes:** the steps interpolate the pen pressure, tilt, bearing and rotation recorded with the Paintbrush, so a Calligraphic, Scatter or Art brush that varies with the pen changes gradually from one key to the next. A key without a recording counts as half pressure, half tilt and 0°, as brushes read it, and angles turn the shorter way round. When the blend starts a key's path at another anchor (an open path run from its end, a closed one turned to another start), the key's recordings, width profile and arrowheads turn with the path. Different brushes still switch halfway (VectorCraft's own rule; strokes blend their options, as [Blended objects overview](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-colors/apply-transparency-and-blending/blended-objects-overview.html) describes; `crates/doc/src/blend.rs`, `pen_pressure_tilt_and_angles_interpolate_for_brushes`, `stroke_profiles_turn_with_a_key_path_started_elsewhere`).

A dragged segment keeps a smooth anchor at either end smooth. With Direct Selection, the Pen, the Curvature and the anchor tools, a path selected as a whole shows all its anchors selected, and the Control bar and the Properties panel offer Convert (corner, smooth) for them too; Remove and Cut wait for anchors direct-selected (#504). A handle drag gathers its snap targets once per drag (it took 21 ms per pointer move on a 20,000-path document, now 1 ms; `vectorcraft-cli perf` measures handle and segment drags on a 5,000-anchor path). Join merges the selected anchor points that lie on one another, as after Average, into one anchor (#1582, fixes #1533), and removes the merged anchors in one pass over the path, so a long run of them no longer moves the anchors after it once per merge (`cmd::path::tests::a_long_run_before_many_other_anchors_merges_in_one_pass`); Object › Path › Average & Join… (`path.averageJoin`, Cmd+Alt+Shift+J, the "Create corner or smooth join" shortcut of [Default keyboard shortcuts](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/default-keyboard-shortcuts.html)) moves two open path ends to their midpoint and joins them there, a corner or smooth point as its dialog's Points choice asks, in one undo step.

Line graphs take Edge-to-Edge Lines (off by default: the points sit at the centres of their categories; graphs saved before the option keep their edge-to-edge lines), and radar graphs follow Mark Data Points and Connect Data Points. Blank cells (an empty CSV cell or `null`) are values left out, not zeros: columns, bars and stacked segments skip them, lines and scatter lines break around them and the value axis ignores them, while area, pie and radar draw them as 0; a number in straight quotes is a label, and the data window writes it back quoted. Graph types combine: Graph Type on series picked with Group Selection (or `series` indexes) draws them as their own type, with column, stacked column, line and area mixing on the vertical value axis and bar and stacked bar on the horizontal one; stacked columns take one slot of the cluster, lines draw in front of columns and areas behind. The value axis goes on the left, the right or both sides (column, stacked column, line, area and scatter graphs; bar graphs keep theirs along the bottom), and Separate Scales gives the series assigned to the right axis a scale of their own with its own tick values.

An Eyedropper pick that includes transparency and leaves a mark's top fill or stroke row without paint, or removes that row when the source has no row of that kind, where that row had paint before, also replaces the opacity and blend mode the graph keeps for that kind of row in the series; a row that had no paint before the pick leaves them as they are.

- A 3D effect on one fill or stroke ([the help page](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/effects.html)) leaves the object's other fills and strokes drawn with the path's or compound path's fill rule, so an even-odd compound path keeps its holes in them; this holds for Extrude & Bevel, Inflate, Rotate and Revolve, and for the Classic Extrude & Bevel, Rotate and Revolve. Tests: `solids::tests::a_fill_or_stroke_without_the_effect_keeps_the_even_odd_hole`, `revolve::tests::a_fill_without_the_revolve_keeps_the_even_odd_hole`.
|
||||
- With caps and opaque paint, Extrude & Bevel (both kinds) and Inflate draw each side face of the fill's solid before the faces of the same object's strokes that overlap it (strokes on closed paths without dashes, a width profile or a brush, in a solid color or an opaque gradient), so the stroke's walls cover the fill's walls at concave corners instead of showing stripes of the fill. Tests: `solids::tests::a_fills_walls_are_drawn_before_the_stroke_faces_over_them`, `solids::tests::the_draw_order_moves_a_fill_wall_before_the_stroke_faces_it_overlaps`, `solid::tests::facets_tell_the_sides_from_the_ends_and_the_faces_turned_away`.
|
||||
- When the fill and strokes are at full opacity with Normal blending, under a stroke that leaves parts of the fill's edge uncovered (dashed, with a width profile or a brush, on an open subpath, or in a paint that may show through), Extrude & Bevel (both kinds) and Inflate cut each stroke face that passes through a face of the fill's solid, or of another of the shape's strokes, where their depths meet, and draw the faces of the shape's fill and strokes that overlap in the order of their depths where they overlap, instead of by the depths of their centers. Inflate orders a plain stroke the same way, since its fill can rise in front of the stroke. The fill no longer paints over a nearer dash, and a dash's end no longer covers the fill wall in front of it; a fill wall in a gap between dashes stays visible. The same order applies inside a group member's own opacity mask or blending mode, to a gradient with transparent stops under a colored light with graphics on its caps, and to Inflate in gradients under a colored light.

- Under a colored light, an Inflate fill and strokes in solid colors, opaque with Normal blending, also draw their faces in that one order, inside a group member's own opacity mask too, instead of each solid as one composite with the stroke's faces over every fill face. Each face keeps the composite's paint, light ramps and seam width; a lone solid, the solids of an object with a translucent or blended fill or stroke, and such solids holding more than 30,720 faces together (VectorCraft's own limit) are still drawn as one composite each.

- Without a twist, a tapered Extrude & Bevel wall (and each bevel band) is one flat face; only a twist cuts walls into slices, so no seam between slices paints a light tick or a light line on a tapered, untwisted wall (#7019).

- Extrude & Bevel, Inflate and Rotate apply to type: it makes a solid of its glyph outlines, painted with its own fills and strokes or, when it has none, its characters' colour (the first run's), and stays type, so editing the text reshapes the solid (#4715).

The Every-line Composer composes a paragraph whose characters differ in line metrics (type size, font, leading or vertical scale, or an inline graphic taller than the text) in area type of any shape, rows, columns and text wrap included. In a frame that is not a rectangle, or with text wrap, each line it tries is measured where the lines above it put it, across the line's own height, so a taller line gets the room of the narrower part of the frame, or of the span beside a wrap object, that it reaches. Such a paragraph is broken with the Single-line Composer when the frame has no room for all of it or when the search passes VectorCraft's own limits. Behavior reference: [the help page](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/design-with-text/edit-format-text/set-hyphenation-and-line-breaks.html).
|
||||
A text wrap object's Offset may be negative as well as positive ([the help page](https://help.adobe.com/archive/en_US/illustrator/cs4/illustrator_cs4_help.pdf#page=307)). A negative Offset (to -1000 pt) shrinks the wrap object by that distance, measured from each edge itself and from the edges of its holes, so lines beside it, above it and below it run that far into it, and an object narrower than twice the distance no longer moves text aside. With Invert Wrap, a negative Offset keeps the text that far inside the object. These are VectorCraft's own rules for the shape of the shrunk object. Text Wrap Options, `object.textWrap.make` and `object.textWrap.options` and the MCP `text_wrap` tool take the negative value, and layout uses it (`crates/text/src/layout/region.rs` tests, `cmd::textwrap::tests::text_wrap_options_negative_offset_reflows_and_round_trips`).
|
||||
In area type of a shape other than a rectangle, each line's whole band, ascent to descent, stays inside the frame: where an edge pinches in within the band, the line ends at the narrowest point, and a line runs beside a hole that starts and ends within its band, not across it. In area type of any shape, a line also stays clear of a text wrap object that reaches into any part of its band, and inside an Invert Wrap object over its whole band (`crates/text/src/layout/region.rs` tests).
|
||||
In area type whose frame has several contours, a line runs across an edge two contours share only when their edges lie exactly on one line, so a gap between contours keeps lines from crossing it, even a gap one unit in the last place wide near the edge of the canvas; an edge divided by an anchor exactly on it still lets lines cross (`layout::region::separate_slanted_contours_keep_a_four_ulp_gap_near_canvas_limit`, `shared_slanted_edge_still_joins_near_canvas_limit`, `area_type_sets_no_line_across_a_four_ulp_gap_between_slanted_contours`).
|
||||
With Invert Wrap, the spans a line keeps inside a wrap shape of many parts (a comb of 500 teeth) are found by stepping through the line's spans and the shape's spans once for each piece of the band, so the work grows with the number of spans, not with its square (`crates/text/src/layout/region.rs` tests).

Text Wrap Options › Offset is a distance field in the document's units: a bare number is in those units, a typed unit ("12 pt") is read as typed, and OK sends points. In a document in picas, a bare number follows Preferences › Units › Numbers Without Units Are Points as the other length fields do: it is in points while that preference is on (the default) and in picas while it is off (`dialogs::command::tests::text_wrap_offset_in_picas_follows_numbers_without_units_are_points`). An Offset typed outside -1000 to 1000 pt, VectorCraft's own range for the command, or text that doesn't read, is refused: the field flashes and the dialog stays open, whether Enter or a click on OK ends the entry; in every dialog drawn by the shared dialog window, a click on OK no longer confirms it when the distance field it takes the focus from refuses its text (`dialogs::command::tests::text_wrap_offset_field_takes_document_units_and_refuses_values_outside_its_range`).

Turning Superscript on turns Subscript off, and turning Subscript on turns Superscript off. A button or item shows as on when the first selected character (at a caret, the character before it) has its attribute.

VectorCraft defines the methods: Sharp, the default, draws edges as before; None paints a pixel only where the type covers at least half of it; Crisp shows a pixel covered by a share c at `2c - 0.5`, and Strong shows it at `2c`, each kept between 0 and 1.

- **Image Trace, curve fitting tolerance:** the outline fitter keeps cutting a run while a point stays farther than the tolerance from its curve, so a run of fewer than six points or one cut 14 times no longer keeps a piece over the tolerance. Pieces already within the tolerance do not change, and noisy art can get more anchors. Tests: `logo::bezier::tests`, `logo::outline::tests`. Scores and hours unchanged.

- **Image Trace, gray photos:** Color and Grayscale smooth a gray photo within its tones before choosing its colors, as they do a color photo. A picture with at least 95% of its opaque pixels within 8 levels across their channels counts as continuous tone when 8 colors leave an error of more than 6 levels and more than 0.065 of the error of one color, instead of 0.1, unless 16 colors leave at most a fifth of the error of 8 (VectorCraft's own values). That exception keeps gray flat art of up to 16 clean levels on its old route; anti-aliased or noisy gray flat art can now count as continuous tone too. Most gray photos the change reaches, and very noisy gray scans of flat art, trace with fewer specks and fewer staircase edges. Some 16 Colors and High Fidelity Photo palettes of gray photos grow toward the requested count, with more anchors and regions. Some gray illustrations and sketches get more anchors and staircase edges at 16 Colors and High Fidelity Photo, and some 6 Colors traces get more staircase edges.

- **Image Trace, tinted photos:** Color and Grayscale smooth a sepia, single-hue or duotone photo within its tones before choosing its colors, as they do a gray photo. A picture with at least 95% of its opaque pixels within 6 levels of its tone curve counts as continuous tone under the same 0.065 rule as a neutral picture. The tone curve runs through the median color of each 8-level stretch along the direction in which the picture's colors spread the most, and a pixel on it must also lie within 6 levels of the plane the colors spread along most, so art in several unrelated colors is not counted (VectorCraft's own rule and values). The neutral rule's exception for 16 colors leaving at most a fifth of the error of 8 applies to it too. Clean tinted bands of 2, 3 and 9 levels and tinted scans of flat art with up to 8 levels of noise stay on the flat-art route. On the synthetic tinted photos the 16 Colors trace keeps 12 to 15 colors instead of 6 to 13, with 525 to 708 anchors instead of up to 1,402. A duotone with strong noise on each channel can still miss the curve and stay unsmoothed.

- **Image Trace, JPEG blocks:** Color, Grayscale and Black and White traces smooth the edges of a JPEG's 8 × 8 blocks before tracing, so a dark ground whose tone changes slowly is no longer traced as staircases along the block edges. The block grid is found in the image itself: the mean step between neighboring pixels must peak at one position in eight, across and down. A cropped JPEG and a JPEG saved in another format are smoothed too. A picture of flat 8 × 8 cells is left as it is, and art made of 8 × 8 cells with slight texture inside each cell is smoothed as a JPEG copy would be. A small step at a block edge, with no edge in the eight pixels around it, is spread over those eight pixels, and larger steps are kept, as the deblocking filters of ITU-T H.263 Annex J and MPEG-4 Part 2 Annex F.3.1 do. Black and White smooths only the smallest steps, and traces of more than 16 colors move every row of a stretch of eight by the same amount (VectorCraft's own rule and values). On a 4000 × 3000 photo saved as JPEG, the straight outline segments that lie on the block grid fall from 52% and 51% (across and down) to 24% and 29% at 16 Colors, and from 54% and 51% to 43% and 42% at High Fidelity Photo; staircase runs fall from 83 to 67 (16 Colors), 11 to 1 (6 Colors), 30 to 13 (Black and White Logo) and 428 to 403 (High Fidelity Photo). A 600 px photo saved as a quality-40 JPEG has 4 staircase runs instead of 2 at 16 Colors. Images without a block grid trace as before.

|
||||
- **Image Trace, Document Library colors:** with Document Swatches, traced fills and strokes use the displayed colors of process, global, spot and tint swatches without links, so editing a swatch leaves the trace unchanged; swatch-library colors are also unlinked; code-drawn tests in `crates/engine`.
|
||||
- **Image Trace, flattened slivers:** in a Color, Grayscale or Black and White trace with Fills, a traced region whose outline straightens onto one line (a single pixel, or a one-pixel row along an edge, its pieces shared with the regions beside it) is left out instead of becoming a selectable path with no area, which paints nothing. Snap Curves To Lines straightens more outlines, so it leaves out more of these. Without Fills, the region's 1 px stroke draws it, and it is kept. Code-drawn tests in `crates/trace`.
|
||||
- **Image Trace, Auto Color rare colours:** the Automatic palette keeps colours too rare for its area count when they are distinct (Oklab) and drawn as coherent regions, at most six, protected from mixed-colour merging and Noise; code-drawn stem, highlight, low-contrast and scattered-noise tests (see [quality notes](image-trace-quality.md#auto-color-keeps-rare-colours)).
|
||||
- **Image Trace, nearly flat dark grounds:** with a Limited palette of 9 to 16 colors (16 Colors, and Document Library without swatches), by VectorCraft's own rule, a cut whose two sides both have a dark gray mean (Oklab lightness under 0.30, chroma under 0.03) and lie less than 0.03 apart in Oklab has its gain scaled by (distance / 0.03)². A near-black ground with faint noise then traces in one color, and the color it would have taken goes to another cut. Code-drawn tests `a_nearly_flat_dark_ground_keeps_one_color`, `only_a_limited_palette_of_nine_to_sixteen_colors_weighs_alike_sides` and `a_dark_colored_figure_on_a_nearly_flat_dark_ground_keeps_its_color` in `crates/trace`.
|
||||
- **Image Trace, Document Library keeps neutral tones neutral:** each pixel takes the library color nearest in Oklab with differences in hue and chroma counted three times, so a gray or a muted brown traces as a neutral library color instead of a saturated one of similar lightness; a code-drawn test of gray and brown patches with a black, light and blue library in `crates/trace`.
|
||||
- **Image Trace, source image on hold:** while the eye button next to the Image Trace panel's View is held down, the canvas shows the selected Image Trace objects' source image whatever their View, and shows their View again on release, with no change to the document or the undo history.
|
||||
- **Image Trace, large images:** images over 1500 px on a side trace with a warning in the result and the status bar; the anchor limit is 8,000,000 (2,000,000 on the web), measured at about 90 bytes an anchor (see [quality notes](image-trace-quality.md#large-images)).

Faces are outlined at the Width and edges at half of it, as the page says faces are highlighted with a thick line and edges with a thin line.

The selected art keeps its paint. As VectorCraft's own rules, the option is on at first, the arrows step the stroke when the Stroke proxy is in front, they wrap around at the ends and still step with the preview off, a color that is no swatch shows alone until Right picks the first swatch or Left the last, and the arrows do nothing during a fill drag or with no color swatch.

A PDF-compatible `.ai` saved with Include Editing Data for Other Apps keeps each wrap object's Text Wrap Options in its editing copy: the Offset, positive or negative, and Invert Wrap ([the help page](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/design-with-text/add-manage-text/wrap-or-unwrap-text-around-objects.html)), in the form the `.ai` reader reads them (`text_wrap` in `crates/eps/src/import/ai/read/document.rs`), so they come back when the file is opened. An offset past the -1000 to 1000 pt the reader keeps is written as the nearer end of that range. On a large canvas the offset is written at the art's scale and comes back at its size. Art the writer draws for an object, such as a blend's steps or a symbol instance written as its art, has only that object's options, and a clipping path written as its fills and its strokes has its options once (`crates/eps/src/ai_editing/tests.rs` `text_wrap_options_are_written_and_read_back`, `drawn_art_keeps_only_its_objects_text_wrap`, `text_wrap_offsets_on_a_large_canvas_come_back_at_their_size`, `text_wrap_options_of_type_and_envelopes_are_read_back`, `a_clipping_path_written_as_its_paint_keeps_one_text_wrap`).

In a `.ai` or EPS opened from its editing data, type has its text object's opacity, blend mode and knockout shape flag, whether it is made from the file's text document or taken from the page, and type made from the text document takes its text object's lock. Where such type has transparency and comes in with other art (the rest of its look, or page type and strokes that go with it), a group of them has it. Where the page draws its type, or the strokes around it, with transparency that is neither its text object's nor its text object's combined with that of the objects around it, the page's type and strokes keep their own instead (`crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`). Where the page draws type of no text object over text objects made from the text document, with their words in any case, that type is theirs as the page draws it and is left out; the page's other type of no text object goes only to text objects whose type the text document can't make, or else is left out with a warning.

`.ai` editing-data import restores the document's listed graphic styles in panel order and links objects that use a listed style; unsupported appearances keep their drawn look (`crates/eps/src/import/ai/tests.rs`).

A `.ai` or EPS graphic style library, whose editing data holds the styles and their list but no layers, opens with those styles in list order. Other Library… loads another document's graphic styles ([Apply graphic styles](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/special-effects-styles/apply-graphic-styles/apply-graphic-styles.html)) and lists such a library's styles in a library panel. A `.ai` or EPS read as its PDF part or page because its layers can't be used also gets the styles of its list in place of the default ones (`crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`, `cmd::fileio::tests_aiimport::a_graphic_style_library_in_a_ai_file_without_layers_loads_its_styles`).

To find those characters, SVG export lays a type object out a second time only when the second layout can differ from the first: point type with Line-end Punctuation Half Width and no Japanese punctuation or letters, the setting new type gets, is laid out once.

Legacy `.ai` saves (version 7) write type with rotated characters (Character Rotation, Touch Type turns) as its outlines, with a warning that it is no longer editable text (unless `outlineText` already asks for every type object as outlines): a version 7 text object has no character rotation ([Adobe Illustrator File Format Specification 7.0](https://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/PRONOM/fmt/423), §15), and the outlines keep each character's rotation, baseline shift and scale (`legacy_ai::tests::type_with_rotated_characters_is_outlines_that_keep_the_rotation`).

Legacy `.ai` type keeps its manual kerning pairs (`Tk`, `TK`), its discretionary hyphens (`T+`, `T-`) as soft hyphens and its hyphenation language (`XL`) when it opens, and legacy `.ai` saves write manual kerning as `Tk` and soft hyphens as `T+` ([file format specification, version 7](https://web.archive.org/web/20050126105313/https://partners.adobe.com/public/developer/en/illustrator/sdk/AI7FileFormat.pdf), §15.4.6.1, §15.4.10.1 and §22.6).

A PDF saved with Illustrator's editing data opens through it as a PDF-compatible `.ai` does, with its layers and groups and with art reaching past its page unclipped; such a PDF holds the data in `AIPDFPrivateData` streams (part of #868). A shape a PDF or `.ai` paints with a gradient (a clip path round a shading) opens as one path filled with the gradient, not a clip group round a rectangle, so Shape Builder, Live Paint and Pathfinder work on its outline (#1304).

In a `.ai` opened from its editing data, a text object on a layer that shows and doesn't print stays on that layer, made from the file's text document, even where the page doesn't draw it (`crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`). Such a `.ai` opens without the PDF part's warnings that text was kept as outlines when no outlined glyphs come in, and a warning counts the text objects that hold the page's type next to glyphs the page has only as outlines, which don't come in (`crates/engine/src/cmd/fileio/tests_aiimport.rs`). Where the art of a `.ai` or EPS opened from its editing data differs a little from the file's page, the warning gives the share of the page that differs away from type. When that share is 0.2% or less, the warning names the type and gives the share of the page that differs where the type is; when all the type is made from the text document, the type's share has a warning of its own beside the art's (`crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`).

Type beside the copy's art, and every copy's type in a file past the import's text-object limits, still goes by painting order. Without a page, such a copy has no type, and no warning counts it as left out. How the page's type is matched with a copy is VectorCraft's own rule (`crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`).

A `.ai` or EPS whose editing data has brushes opens with the file's Calligraphic, Scatter, Art and Bristle brushes in the Brushes panel in place of the default ones, in the file's order: the Calligraphic size, roundness and angle with their variation, the Scatter size, spacing, scatter and rotation, the Bristle settings, and the Scatter and Art brushes' art (Art brushes in the older and newer forms of their objects). A brush library `.ai` (brushes and no layers) opens from its PDF part with its brushes, so Other Library lists them. An Art brush in Tints keeps that colorization. Pattern brushes and brushes that can't be read are left out with a note. Paths with a Calligraphic brush, and paths with an Art brush in the newer form at 100% in Tints that stretches art of solid-filled paths unflipped, open as the path with the brush on its stroke. Paths with an Art brush in the older form, and other brushed paths, still come in as their drawn look (part of #372 and #637; `crates/eps/src/import/ai/tests.rs`, `crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`).

In a `.ai` opened from its editing data, a path or type object with Offset Path, Outline Object or Outline Stroke on the whole object opens as itself with those effects live, in their order and shown or hidden; on a fill or stroke of type they stay on that fill or stroke. Offset Path keeps its Offset, Joins and Miter Limit, and Outline Stroke takes its width from the stroke. An Offset Path with a setting missing, out of range or not read keeps the drawn art, as does a path with a Path effect on one fill or stroke (`crates/eps/src/import/ai/style/tests.rs`, `crates/eps/src/import/ai/tests.rs`, `crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`).

A wider frame stays in the art, and an art group with a state or look of its own (hidden, locked, isolated, knockout, an opacity, a blend mode, a name, a mask, a note or an appearance) stays a group (`crates/eps/src/import/ai/tests.rs`).

When it draws differently, or when the file's limit of checks has no check left for it, it opens as that art, and one note says how many did. Type stays live without a comparison when the saved art paints nothing or draws type of its own, in frames of threaded type, when a text variable binds it, and when its text object doesn't come in as one text object (`crates/eps/src/import/ai/envelope.rs`, `crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`).

A PDF page whose `UserUnit` (PDF 1.6) is above 1 opens at its size in points, its numbers times the `UserUnit` (one above 75,000 counts as 75,000), and `document.pdfInfo` gives its size and boxes in points too. A `.ai` whose editing data has its artboards in the units of such a page opens from that data at the page's size, with its layers, and when the layers can't be read its pages still take the artboard layout of the data, scaled the same way (part of #1482).
|
||||
`document.open`, `file.place` and `document.pdfInfo` reject a `cropTo`, `crop`, `password`, `colorMode` or `textAs` that is not a string, such as `"textAs": true`, and `document.pdfInfo` rejects a `thumbnailSize` that is not a number; the error names the param, and nothing opens or is placed. A param left out or given as null keeps its default (`crates/engine/src/cmd/fileio/tests_pdfimport.rs`).
|
||||
When the PDF content of a `.ai` has a page for each artboard, the layers are compared with every page on its artboard (until the pages compared take 8,388,608 pixels at the comparison's scale, about 67 letter-size pages, or number 128): art that only the layers or only a later page draws is handled as art that differs on the first page is, and a text object that a later page doesn't draw is left out unless its layer doesn't print (`crates/eps/src/import/tests_native.rs`).

- **Brush art of copies:** symbol instances, inline graphics and repeat copies of a brushed path keep their own brush art between frames, as the same path on the page does. The renderer also keeps the stroke outlines of brush art and the evaluation of a live object in it, such as an envelope that a scatter brush places. The brush art is made again when the path, its stroke or the brush changes, and when the art of a symbol or pattern that the brush art can show changes. On one thread at 1000 × 1000 pixels (the median frame, with the median fastest frame in brackets), 2,000 paths on the page whose scatter brush art is an envelope take 94 ms (80 ms) a frame instead of 400 ms (306 ms), and 2,000 instances of a symbol whose art is a brushed path take 13.4 ms (12.0 ms) instead of 19.3 ms (15.6 ms), with the same pixels.

- **Two brushes with one name:** when a document stores two brushes with the same name, a stroke that names it draws on the canvas with the first of them, as `brush.get`, Brush Options, expanding, outlining and the SVG, PDF, EPS and `.ai` exports take it. Document Info gives that brush's type, and the Brushes panel's row of that name previews and drags the first brush. Reading the library numbers the second brush ("Name 2"), so the panel lists it in a row of its own that shows it.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Live objects in symbols and masks:** symbol instances and inline graphics whose symbol is a blend, an envelope, a repeat, an Intertwine object or a gradient mesh, or a group that holds one, draw the evaluation the renderer keeps for that object between frames, as the same object on the page does. So do opacity masks whose art is such an object, and such objects in clip groups in Outline view. The object is evaluated again when the symbols, patterns, fonts or color settings it shows change. Symbol art with effects of its own, or that holds a symbol instance, an image, a placed file, type with an inline graphic or a raster effect, is still placed and evaluated again in every frame. At 1000 × 1000 pixels, a page of 2,000 instances of a symbol that holds an envelope takes 28 ms a frame instead of 126 ms, with the same pixels.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Live objects in documents with many symbols:** a live object, or an object with effects, that shows symbols or patterns is not walked again in a later frame to find them while the document's symbols and patterns stay the same. One that shows a placed file is walked in every frame. At 1000 × 1000 pixels, a page of 2,000 envelopes around instances of the last 2,000 of 10,000 symbols takes 30 ms a frame, and 83 ms when every frame walks them again, with the same pixels.
