Pinning a closed replaced spine opens it with a copy of its first point
at its end, so a two-point ring became three points and Delete Spine
Point could leave a spine of two points in one place. The two-point
check now counts the points left that are apart.
With one Objects on Path group selected, the Selection and Objects on Path
tools show a ring on each object's attachment point. A click chooses that
object while the group stays selected; dragging a ring along the path moves
its object to the nearest object's place, and the objects between move one
place toward where it was, in one undo step. Hidden and locked objects have
no ring and keep their places. On a closed path the drag goes on round
across the first anchor, and Escape cancels it.
- object.objectsOnPath.selectMember {member} chooses an object.
- object.objectsOnPath.moveMember {member, target, group?} moves an object
to another object's place; only the order along the path changes.

Pinning a closed spine from Replace Spine (a spine edit, Reverse Spine)
stored it closed with both end keys on its first point, so moving the
first key afterwards landed it on the last. Pinning now opens the spine
there as the layout of a moved key does.
A function an earlier run of a named engine defined was reported without
a line, column or file when it threw in a later run. The realm now gives
each source a tag that stays the same from run to run (Realm::error_tag,
Realm::script_tag), and no two sources share one once the tags run out.
Each named engine keeps the source maps of its runs' scripts, included
files and $.evalFile files, within 8 MiB, dropping the oldest first, and
an error in kept code is reported at that file, line and column. The
report's name and the console line keep the calling run's name. For an
earlier script given as source, file is that run's name.

Vertical type lays its lines out in line space and turns them a quarter turn
into text space. Convert To Area Type built the frame from line-space line
edges mixed with text-space bounds, so vertical point type moved (a 12 pt line
at (295.44, 40) went to (320.8, 28)). Convert To Point Type placed the new
origin in line space, so vertical area type moved down its column.
Both conversions now work out the frame or origin in line space and map it
through the layout's line transform. Horizontal type is unchanged.
text.tabs.set takes a list of more than 256 stops when every paragraph it
targets already holds at least that many, so a paragraph loaded with more
stops can lose them one at a time (the Tabs panel's Delete Tab). Any
other list of more than 256 stops is still refused, counted as supplied
before stops at one position merge.

When a dynamic symbol is redefined or edited, each instance kept every
appearance change whose path still named an object, even when that
object is now one that draws no fill or stroke of its own (an image, a
blend, a mesh) or a symbol instance given a gradient or pattern fill.
symbol.instance.setAppearance refuses such a paint, but the change stayed
on the instance and still counted as a color the document uses.
Fitting the changes to the new art now also clears a fill or stroke the
object at that path does not draw, and drops a change left empty.
On a closed spine from Replace Spine both end keys sit on its first
point, so moving one moved that point onto it and then back onto the
other. Once a key is moved off, the spine is now opened at its first
point, with a copy of it at the end taking the closing segment and the
last key.
Coordinates outside -32,768 to 32,767 plotter units (about 82 cm from the origin) are written as they are, with a warning that older devices may not read them. HP-GL/2 plots are not checked against this range.
An entry `<area>/keeps-<left area>` kept the copies in the left area
whenever the lock check on `<area>` failed, so an entry in a folder of
another account, or in one whose lock file can't be opened, kept a
crashed app's copies from being offered. Such an entry now keeps
nothing: only an area that this session holds, or that a running app of
this account has locked, keeps the copies it names.
After Replace Spine the keys are not pinned to spine anchors, so the
steps spread them evenly along the spine by arc length and put a moved
key straight back where it was. Once a key is moved off its place, the
spine is laid out pinned at the anchors where the keys were spread, and
the moved key takes its point of the spine along, as on a pinned spine.
