The warning that PDF export gives when a knockout group has too many overlapping translucent elements to draw through soft masks had no row in any catalog. fi.tsv now has one, keyed by the text the warning shows.
Under a colored light, a fill in a gradient with transparent stops carries
an opacity mask, and a graphic mapped onto Extrude & Bevel's cap or onto a
Plane was placed twice: once on the fill's cap with the mask and again on
the stroke's cap. The fill and stroke now share one graphic when they have
the same opacity and blending mode, as they do without the mask. It is
drawn after the last of their faces on that cap and takes the mask of the
surface it is drawn after, so an opaque stroke leaves it unmasked. A
masked fill without a stroke keeps its masked graphic, and members of a
3D group drawn with a mask keep graphics of their own. Unmasked fills and
strokes alone draw as before.
When PDF, print, EPS and DXF export place a symbol's art to bake its
effects, the art now carries the stain the instance's fill gives it, as
it did before the art was placed. The art is stained first and its
effects apply to the stained colors.
A graphic style from a .ai or EPS library whose fill, or the fill or
stroke of a style of one paint, paints with one of the file's gradients
by name was left out of the library. Such styles now load with that
gradient at the style's angle. The style stores only the gradient's name
and angle, so the gradient is fitted to the bounds of each object the
style is applied to; this placement is VectorCraft's own rule.
- A style of one paint reads a gradient instance's fill or stroke as
that gradient; a gradient outside an instance is still not read.
- A fill filter paints with its last paint: a color, a gradient or a
pattern replaces whichever of the others came before it.
- A style naming a gradient the file doesn't define, or painting with a
pattern, is still left out.
