- Outline Stroke on a graph's strokes, including Object > Expand with
Stroke on, adjusts the bounds the graph keeps, the same way
Create Outlines on its labels does. Before, the stroke outlines
changed the bounds of the art without type, and the next redraw
stretched the plot by the width the outlines added.
- A graph that keeps `placedArt` and has no art other than type left
is no longer measured on the bounds of all its art. A label edit on
such a graph moved and stretched the plot at the next redraw; the
plot now stays where it is.
- A redraw no longer measures a move or scale on art that has no width
or no height now, such as a graph left with one axis line. Before,
the plot collapsed to no width.
- A clipping group in a graph that holds type is measured on its clip
when the clip does not depend on type, so moving art outside the clip
does not change the bounds. Blends, envelopes and repeats are
measured whole, as they are drawn.
- The doc crate's helper is named `graph_art_without_type` and sits
with the file's other free functions.
- docs/mcp.md lists Outline Stroke and states that moving an outlined
label, a swatch, an axis or a tick mark on its own can move or scale
the plot, and that a graph left with only labels, or with art that
has no width or height, does not follow a move.
- Tests: a scale of the graph made before outlining a label, a move of
a graph opened from `.ai` after its label is restyled and moved,
Outline Stroke after a move, a graph left with only its labels or
with one line, and clipping groups holding type.
Effect > Blur > Radial Blur... has a Blur Center box. A press or a drag
in the box sets the point the spin or zoom starts from, the arrow keys
move it 1% (10% with Shift), and Horizontal and Vertical fields take the
same position in percent. Screen readers get the box with both values.
- blur.radial takes centerX and centerY, from 0 to 1 across and down the
object's bounds (0.5 each by default), so the center moves and scales
with the object. An effect saved without them draws as before.
- effect.apply and effect.setParams refuse a value outside 0 to 1, or
one that is not a number; a saved one draws at the nearest edge.
- The raster's margin is measured from the center, and the center stays
in the object's own bounds when a Rasterize splits the stack.
- Params text, docs/mcp.md, the evidence line in
docs/target-app-parity.md and a Blur Center row in every catalog.
A WMF without a placeable box picks its scale from the map mode its
drawing records are played in. Lines and shapes drawn under R2_NOP or
R2_XORPEN, and PATBLT records the reader does not fill, no longer count,
with the mix mode saved and restored with SAVEDC and RESTOREDC.
An open stroke that reaches far outside the picture is left out before
it joins the strokes waiting to be joined, so the strokes drawn before
it are still added.
A plot of the art's bounds now leaves placed images, objects at 0%
opacity and unpainted paths out of the art of a dynamic symbol, as it
does for other symbols. An object that an instance's fill, stroke or
opacity makes the plot draw is measured for that instance only, and an
instance whose symbol holds nothing else is left out, so a document
with only such instances is refused.
With Show East Asian Options on, the Glyphs panel menu lists Traditional
Forms, Expert Forms, JIS 04, JIS 90, JIS 78 and JIS 83 Forms, Monospaced
Full-Width, Half-Width, Third-Width and Quarter-Width Forms, and Revert
To Default Forms. Each form draws the selected characters with the
font's OpenType feature for it (trad, expt, jp04, jp90, jp78, jp83,
fwid, hwid, twid or qwid). A form is checked when every selected
character has it and disabled when none of the faces that draw the
selected text, fallback faces included, has the feature.
The form is a new character attribute, glyphForm, one form at a time
(text.setFormat, text.setRangeStyle). It is saved only when set,
character styles carry it, and runs that differ only in their form
shape as one piece of text. SVG writes it in font-feature-settings;
PDF draws the glyphs from the layout.
Load Variable Library defines each variable with the kind of its trait
(textcontent, visibility, fileref, graphdata; any other or none is the
unknown kind) and reads visibility values from true or false, image
values from a file's absolute path or file: URL, and graph values from
a data element of series names and rows. A document variable declared
with the same name and kind keeps its bindings. Save Variable Library
writes every kind in the same forms and is enabled with any variable.
Image values that aren't absolute paths and graph data past what a
graph holds are refused, so every saved file loads back.
When Merge added a path that cut a painted edge, the piece holding the
old edge's middle took the old edge's stroke rows unchanged, so its
dashes started again and it kept both arrowheads. It now takes them
fitted to its part of the old edge, as Gap Options does.
A closed path that crosses itself is cut into closed loops. The loop
holding the path's first anchor counted as the whole path, so it kept
the path's width profile and brush. A closed edge now counts as the
whole path only when it is as long as the path.
Each run is rewritten in pieces between the ruby spans' ends, so no
replacement joins characters across one, and each span is moved to where
its characters land in the new text. Expert Fractions treats a digit of
any script next to a fraction as part of a larger number.
livePaint.strokeEdge wrote the paint and weight into an edge's topmost
stroke even when that stroke was hidden. An edge whose hidden top stroke
sat over a drawn one kept drawing its old paint, and since the edge
scopes now match the paint an edge draws, a samePaint or connected
stroke reached such edges and changed nothing on screen. The command now
paints the topmost stroke that is shown, and adds a stroke above the
others when every stroke is hidden or there is none. The "nothing
changes" check reads the same stroke.
The doc comments of the scopes and of the press record describe the
drawn stroke paint, and the engine names Paint through its parent module
instead of in the import list. Live Paint Selection's comment on a
triple-click states that the tool takes no action on it.
New tests cover the edge the tool matches on a multi-click over a hidden
or fully transparent edge, the connected edge scope through transparent
and hidden edges, and painting the shown stroke.
When Gap Options cut an edge in two, each piece took the old edge's
stroke rows unchanged: both arrowheads, the dash phase of the edge's
start, and a brush or width profile spread over the whole edge. Each
piece now takes those rows fitted to its part of the old edge, as Make
fits a source path's rows to the edges cut from it.
File › Open's Import PDF dialog gets Import PDF pages as links. With it on,
each page picked opens as a placed document linked to that page of the
file, on an artboard of its Crop To box and a layer named after the page,
in place of editable art. The Links panel lists each page, and Embed makes
a page editable.
document.open takes the matching linkPages param. It is refused for a
file that is not a PDF or a PDF-compatible .ai, for bytes without a path,
with a password and with textAs: outlines. The pages share one copy of
the file, and the document opens in CMYK when most of its pages do.
Save asks for a name, as for other partly read PDFs.
Perspective Grid Options gets the two Automatic Plane Positioning
checkboxes, Anchor Point of Perspective Artwork and Intersection of
Gridlines. With the Perspective Selection tool, Shift held over an
anchor point of art in perspective, or over a gridline intersection,
with no button down, moves the active plane through that point and
hides the other planes. A plane made active then passes through the
same point. The plane goes back to its place once an object is drawn
on it or attached to it, when the grid hides or no plane is active,
when the file is opened again, and with Escape.
- perspective.plane.infer {at?, tolerance?, clear?} positions, reads
and clears the held point, which is view state, not an undo step.
- perspective.widget.options takes anchorPoint and gridlineIntersection,
both on by default and kept with the preferences.
- perspective.plane.move moves a held plane from where it is held.
The Links panel menu gets Sort by Size beside Sort by Name, Kind and
Status, and links.list takes sort: "size". A row's size is the file size
Link Info shows: the file's size now, else the size the document keeps
of it. Rows without a size (embedded images, a missing file whose size
is not kept) come last, and equal sizes go by name. The size is read
only when sorting by it, and under automation read roots a file outside
them is not read.
Every catalog with Sort by Status gets a Sort by Size row; the Ukrainian
Sort by Status row, which read "Sort by:", now says "Sort by Status".
Create Sub-folders and Open Location after Export are check items that set
the settings the panel shares with Export for Screens, and the panel's
Export follows them. Create Sub-folders is checked as the dialog opens on
it: on for a document without export settings, and on for remembered
folders per row, format or item, which the panel's Export now uses too.
Format Settings... opens Export for Screens on the Assets tab showing the
first row's format settings.
assets.settings.set takes openLocation (kept in document.exportSettings,
not in presets), refuses a subfolders or openLocation value that is not
true, false or null, and with subfolders false given alone also ends a
remembered folder per format or item. Export for Screens reads remembered
empty folders as none, as an export does.
