The palette listed the Layers panel's Delete Selection twice: as
Window › Layers › Delete Selection, which ran layer.delete and deleted a
layer holding art without asking, and as a bare Delete Selection, which
ran ui.layerDelete and asked first.
- The palette now lists one Window › Layers › Delete Selection result,
which runs ui.layerDelete, so a pick asks before deleting a layer or
sublayer that holds art. Scripts and the control channel still run
layer.delete at once.
- New Brush…, Brush Options…, Symbol Options…, Import SVG Filter… and
Convert to Text were also listed twice under the same name, once as
the engine command, which the palette ran with no params. Each is now
listed once, as the UI command that opens its dialog or file chooser
or acts on the edited paragraphs.
- A search for a wrapped engine command's id or menu path still finds
the one result.

A <tspan>, <textPath> or <a> inside a <text> whose unicode-bidi is embed
now gives its characters its direction as their Character Direction. An
element with normal stays in its parent's embedding, unicode-bidi is not
inherited (inherit takes the parent's value), and the <text> keeps its
own paragraph direction. A run that SVG export writes with direction and
unicode-bidi="embed" now opens with its Character Direction again.
Character Direction holds one level of embedding and no override or
isolation, so bidi-override, isolate and isolate-override are imported
as embeddings in their direction, plaintext as an embedding in the
direction of its first strong character, and an embedding inside
another as an embedding of its own, each with an import warning.
unicode-bidi: plaintext on the <text> runs and anchors each paragraph
in the direction of its first strong character.

untranslated_report lists 167 status and error messages that no
complete-message catalog translates. zh-hans.tsv gains 114 @msg rows for
the ones no open pull request covers: 3D and Revolve limits, image export
and encoding errors, color profiles, color books and swatch exchange
files, binary DXF and DWG import, path operations, swatch, graphic style
and action set libraries, and zip, script and regular expression errors.
Placeholders, backticked names, command ids and listed values stay as the
English writes them.
The other 53 (composite fonts, SVG filters, read roots and graph design)
are left to #7211, #7378 and #7405. docs/localization-parity.md and
docs/target-app-parity.md give the new counts: 3,554 @msg rows, and 55
messages the report lists for zh-hans, all of them translated by open
pull requests.
On the core Wayland clipboard, a read waited for the app that copied to
close its pipe, and a send wrote until the app that pastes took all of
the data. An app that left its pipe open and stopped held the one read
worker, so later pastes failed at once, or held one of the eight send
threads until it closed its end.
Reads and sends now use the pipe nonblocking and wait for it with poll.
When no byte moves for 2 s (VectorCraft's own limit, the existing text
wait) the read fails without pasting partial data and the send stops;
both close their pipe. The wait starts again after each byte that moves,
so a large transfer that keeps going is not cut short.
The centre-lines class gains a mixed-width body scene: one disc of radius
24 px with arms of 2, 3 and 5 px that start inside it, Stroke 6 px, and no
other ink. A test checks that the scene is one connected shape and that
both the anti-aliased and hard input trace as one fill and three strokes
that reach all three free ends.
docs/image-trace-quality.md's centre-lines section is measured again on
current main (24 scenes, two runs identical in every column but ms). The
new scene finds 100.0% of its arms with 99.3% / 98.3% of the disc filled;
mix now traces as 6+3 paths with 99.9% / 99.8% found and 7/7 ends, where
the earlier whole-blob rows showed 3+1, 57.3% and 6/7. All other rows
are unchanged except ms.
A COLRv1 linear or radial gradient whose color line repeats or reflects
made the whole glyph an image. Such a gradient now reads into a vector
gradient with the same spread. The COLR specification repeats the
interval from the first color stop to the last, so one run of the stops
spans the gradient's vector:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/opentype/spec/colr
A repeating or reflecting radial gradient that starts at a circle stays
an image, and so does a repeating or reflecting gradient with a stop
whose palette index is outside the palette. A color line with an extend
value the specification does not define now pads, as the specification
says, instead of making the glyph an image.
49 status and error messages in the Hindi, Bulgarian, Danish,
Indonesian, Dutch, Brazilian Portuguese, Swedish and Turkish catalogs
translated the field names in brackets, such as `[subpath, anchor]` or
`[start, end]`, which the parameter documentation spells in English, or
the values an `unknown` or `bad model` message lists, such as
`(points, lines)` or `(left|right|top|bottom)`. Commands match those
values against the English words, so a user who passed the translated
value got the same error again. These rows now keep the English names
and values and translate the rest of the sentence.
A new test, translated_messages_keep_the_field_names_and_values_their_english_lists,
checks every catalog for bracketed field lists, `a|b|c` value lists and
the values listed in parentheses after `unknown` and `bad model`.
A linked image whose appearance is one Warp effect, with no opacity mask,
was saved to the .ai editing data as its drawn art, so its live Warp was
lost. It is now written with an art style of that Warp, as an embedded
image is: its bent pieces are its drawn look, and the image itself
follows on %_ lines as a placed file with its path, its folder relative
to the document's and its preview. In an opacity mask's art the copy is
embedded, with the existing warning for linked images in masks.
Opening such a file reads the image back linked, with its Warp live.
A hidden image with a Warp, embedded or linked, is now compared with its
drawn look shown, so it keeps its Warp too; before, the look drew
nothing and the image came in as its drawn pieces.
The Parametric Shape tool's center and the Slice tool's corners snapped
with Smart Guides to the bounds of the art only, so View › Snap to Glyph
had no effect on them, and neither did the anchors and segments of
paths that the other drawing tools snap to. The point dragged out from a
Parametric Shape's center did not snap at all, and neither tool showed
Smart Guides while hovering before a press.
Both tools now snap through the drawing tools' shared snapping
(DrawSnap). A Parametric Shape's center (from a drag or a double-click),
the point dragged out from it, and a slice's corners land on glyph
guides and on path anchors and segments. The guides show while hovering
and during the drag. When a ruler guide then takes a slice corner, the
Smart Guides are no longer shown. A click with the Parametric Shape tool
still draws nothing when its center snaps a few pixels from the pointer.

After Restore in the dialog Data Recovery shows at launch, the status
bar wrote the restore count over the line about the restored document's
linked files, and the warnings each copy restored with were never shown.
The status bar now shows the count followed by the first of the
restored documents' notes: each document's lines about its linked
files, then its warnings, what reading the copy left out first, named
with the document's title when more than one was restored. Hovering
the message lists them all. The count is the number of documents
restored.
The questions about each restored document's missing or modified
linked files now come one document at a time, with that document made
the current one, so a later document's question no longer replaces an
earlier one's. When a copy can't be restored, the status bar shows the
error and its hover keeps the count and the restored documents' notes.
