- the relational operators root both strings while flattening them, so the first copy still counts when the second one starts a collection
- join roots its separator for the whole join and each element while it is written, and JSON.stringify roots a string while it writes it
- a String object flattens its string when it is made, with the copy counted, so reading one of its characters copies nothing
Window > Brush Libraries > Dry Media (`dry-media`) holds four art brushes:
Chalk Grain, Graphite Pencil, Wax Crayon and Charcoal Dust. Each is 100 pt
of filled vector paths generated from a fixed seed with integer steps and
plain arithmetic, at most 80 paths and 500 anchors, stretched along the
path with Tints colorization. The chalk and crayon art has even-odd gaps
cut out of its band.
The names, sizes and art are VectorCraft's own. A new i18n test checks
that every complete catalog names each built-in brush library.
The Blend panel gets a Create Spine menu (Auto, Always, Never) under Make,
and object.blend.createSpine {mode?} sets or reads it. It is kept with the
preferences, is not an undo step and leaves blends already made as they are.
object.blend.make takes createSpine to choose for one new blend.
Auto and Always give every new blend a straight spine, as before. Never
makes a blend without one: its steps sit where a straight spine puts them,
object.blend.info reports hasSpine: false, easing is refused and dimmed,
Reverse Spine and the spine point commands refuse it, Release gives back
no spine path, and Replace Spine gives it a spine. A blend taking more keys
keeps whether it has a spine. Native files save noSpine; older files open
with their spines.
Builds on #5177 by adambelis.
The Graphic Styles library menu lists nine libraries. Painted and
Sketched follows Hand-Drawn and holds Washed Blue, Bristle Ochre,
Pastel Heather, Charcoal Shade, Ink Contour, Wet Ink and Fine Pen. Each
style is a solid fill, two with a 1 pt stroke, under one watercolor,
dry brush, rough pastels, charcoal, ink outlines, sumi-e or graphic pen
effect with every setting given. The library and style names have rows
in all 27 catalogs, and docs/mcp.md describes the library.
DXF Options gets Include Placed Images and Include Fill Hatches, and
document.exportDxf and document.export {format: dxf} take
includeImages and includeHatches. Both are VectorCraft's own options
and default to true, so Custom exports write what they wrote before.
- includeImages: false writes no IMAGE entity, IMAGEDEF, reactor or
linked file for a placed image, and does not decode its pixels.
- includeHatches: false writes each filled area's outlines without the
solid HATCH after them.
- Each adds one note to warnings when it left something out. R12,
which has neither, keeps its own notes.
- The CNC / CAM preset sets both to false, so its drawing holds the
cutting paths alone; the options given still override it, and
changing either checkbox shows Custom.

Affinity: read native documents with craft-affinity from craft-libs
* Affinity: read native documents with craft-affinity from craft-libs
crates/affinity's reader moved to craft-libs as craft-affinity (#914).
The crate keeps its name and re-exports it, so the engine, the corpus
tests and fuzz targets, and the Affinity corpus CI job are unchanged.
Its integration tests take craft-libs' versions; the one signature that
changes is patchy-shapes-2.af, whose special shapes now have outlines.
* Affinity: pin craft-affinity to craft-libs 228f6d0c (no change to the crate)
cached_frames_keep_their_scale_during_resize_rotation_and_dpi_changes
delivered the worker's frame with a 1 ms render time. The canvas key
carries the process-wide placed-document generation, so when another
test in the same run made a placed bitmap between the delivery and the
next frame, the key no longer matched. With a 1 ms last frame, the next
frame rendered on the UI thread over the delivered one, and the
"the worker's frame arrived" assertion failed.
The delivered frame now reports 50 ms, as the frames before it do, so a
moved generation queues the next frame on the controlled worker and the
delivered frame stays shown.
drop_left forgot a copy in an area the session left before removing it, so a copy whose removal failed (the area read-only for a moment) could later be offered back to the same session as a crash's copy. The entry now stays until both files are removed, and the next heartbeat tries again.
ui.pointer and the headless pointer call read a pointer event's pressure,
holdMs, tiltX, tiltY and rotation with a default for any value that was not a
number, and treated any space other than screen as document space. Each event
is now checked before the packet runs: those values must be numbers and space
must be doc or screen, with null keeping the default. docs/mcp.md says so.
xml.xpath(expression[, variables]) evaluates an XPath 1.0 expression
(https://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xpath-19991116/) with the XML value as
the context node and returns the selected nodes as an XMLList, in
document order and without repeats. On an XMLList the expression runs
on each element in turn, and the results are joined.
- All 13 axes and the 27 core functions. id() selects nothing, since
E4X trees carry no DTD data.
- Each property of `variables` binds the variable of its name. A
prefix in a name test resolves through the context element's
in-scope namespaces; `xml` is always bound.
- An expression that breaks the grammar gives a SyntaxError. An
unknown function, a wrong argument count, an unbound prefix or
variable, a result that is not a node-set, and a result that holds
the root or a namespace node give a TypeError.
- The parser and the evaluator keep their state on their own stacks,
so expressions of any depth use no native stack; nesting past
Options::max_depth gives "nesting too deep". Traversal stacks, node
lists, strings and the values that string functions build count
against the heap limit, and every node visited and string read takes
fuel.

Convert to Artboards found the highest artboard id twice for each object it
converted: once for the new artboard's name and once in
Document::next_artboard_id. Converting N objects read about N^2 artboards.
The command now keeps the highest id as it adds artboards, and
Document::next_artboard_id_above gives the next id from it. When an artboard
has id u32::MAX, it falls back to next_artboard_id, which takes the smallest
free id. The ids and names it gives are unchanged.
The fuel and heap checks for a host evaluator's source were split into a third
before encoding and the rest after, so a source whose whole UTF-16 text did not
fit in the heap could still be encoded and parsed. The whole encoded size is now
reserved before encoding. A source over the source limit is still refused as a
syntax error.
A save or an export with several notes named only the first of them in
the status bar, with the count, and the others could not be seen. The
status bar now keeps every note of a save or an export for the status
message's hover, as it does for an open's notes since #6752: resting
the pointer on the message lists them in the order the reply gives them
(a save's notes start with what the format loses), and screen readers
receive the list after the message. The status text is unchanged.
This covers Save, Save As, Save a Copy, Save as Template, Save a
Timestamped Copy, Save as PDF, Export As, Export Selection, Export for
Screens, Asset Export, Save for Web, Preview in Browser, Save for Office
Documents, Text Export Options, a print to a file and the CSS Properties
panel's export. The open, the saves and the exports read a reply's notes
through one helper.

VectorCraft could open and place HP-GL plot files but not write them,
so art for a pen plotter or a vinyl cutter had to go through another
program.
Export As, document.export and Export Selection now write HP-GL.
vectorcraft_cad::hpgl::export draws each visible path once along its
own line: a filled shape is its closed outline and a stroked path its
center line. Type is drawn as glyph outlines, a gradient mesh as its
outline, and a symbol instance as its art with its effects and the
instance's stain. Clipping masks cut the art they clip, and the art is
cut at the artboard's edges. Hidden and non-printing layers, hidden objects,
objects at 0% opacity, template layers, guides and placed images are
left out. Coordinates are plotter units (1016 to the inch, y up) from
the artboard's bottom-left corner or its center, and art more than
8,388,607 units from the origin is cut off.
Each color is a pen, in the order the plot first draws in it (up to
255), or a pen table maps each path to the pen of the nearest color.
With Use Artboards every file of the export uses the same numbering.
The pens draw in turn, each in paint order or, with sortPaths, nearest
path first. Curves are flattened to curveTolerance (0.1 pt by default).
hpglVersion "hpgl" writes IN, SP, PU and PD; "hpgl2" also writes the
palette (NP, PC) and each pen's paths as one encoded polyline (PE).
Options are checked, and Export As writes the file with the defaults.
Plots read back by the HP-GL reader give the same lines.

A client confined with --automation-read-root could learn paths it was
not given and may not read from the replies of several commands. Each
one now names such a path only when no read roots are in force or the
path is inside them:
- document.save and file.save, file.saveAs, file.saveCopy and
file.saveAsTemplate (app.save and engine.execute) without a path:
the document's own file, the files of separate artboards and linked
files are left out or named by file name, and the folder a save
suggests is left out.
- document.exportForScreens with the folder of an exportPreset: the
ZIP path is left out and files are relative to that folder.
- document.exportSettings, document.exportPresets.list and
document.exportPresets.export: a kept folder outside the read roots
is left out of the reply and of the presets file the export writes.
- file.package: warnings, missingLinks and the report name a file
outside the read roots by its file name. A link's stored path, read
from the document's folder when it is relative, decides, also when
its file was found under another path.
- document.info: an image linked to a file outside the read roots has
link null, and its Linked Images row names the file alone.
docs/mcp.md and the params text describe the rule.
A for each loop read the property's value before evaluating its target,
so a target such as (o.p = 2, t).v, t[(o.p = 3, 'w')] or a bare
@[(o.p = 2, 'k')] stored the value from before the target ran. The
target's object and name are now evaluated first and the value is read
after them (ECMA-357 section 12.3).
Flattening a concatenated string copies its units into a new buffer. The
string built-ins reserve that copy with flat_charged, but several other
paths flattened without it, so a script could build copies the heap limit
never saw:
- the relational operators (`<`, `>`, `<=`, `>=`) on two strings, `==`
between a string and a number, unary `+` and every other ToNumber of a
string, and reading a character by index (`s[0]`)
- a property name made from an object whose toString returns a long
string, and a long string used as a property name, which now reserves
its copy before it is made instead of after
- direct `eval` of a concatenated source
- `JSON.stringify` of a string value and its `space` argument
- `Array.prototype.join`'s separator and each string element it writes
Property names and eval source reserve the copy's heap bytes without
taking fuel.
A save that set useArtboards: true and named an artboard with artboard
or artboards, without range, wrote that artboard, but file.formatOptions
reported the default range. The Save As dialog then opened on All, and
OK saved every artboard. file.formatOptions now reports those artboards
as the range unless Use Artboards was saved off.
A new gradient kind, `diamond`, runs its stops from the center (the
start) out to a square with a corner at the end of the vector; the
aspect stretches the square across the vector into a rhombus. The
Gradient panel's Type row has a Diamond button, the Gradient tool draws
the square with the aspect handle and center ring, and a gradient
fitted to an object covers its box.
- Model and canvas: the level is |x| + |y| in the square's frame; a
square with no area (no vector, an aspect of 0, numbers out of range)
paints the last stop. The canvas draws it as pixels, out to a
stroke's miters, caps and arrowheads. Transforms keep the vector and
take the mapped size across it as the aspect.
- Commands: `paint.setFill`, `paint.editGradient` and
`paint.setGradientGeom` take `kind: "diamond"`; a negative aspect or
a focal point is an error. A conic or diamond gradient that a plug-in
returns with a focal point loses the focal point.
- Gradient tool: dragging the aspect handle of a radial or diamond
gradient whose file gave it a negative aspect now sets a positive
aspect; only a conic's negative aspect mirrors it.
- Export: PDF, SVG, EPS and legacy .ai write four linear gradients, one
for each quarter of the square, clipped to the shape (PDF as axial
shadings). PDF and SVG write an image for translucent stops, a
dithered fill or a flat square, and for the Perceptual method unless
PDF writes the stops as spot color shadings. SVG writes a diamond on
type characters as a radial gradient through the corners, and so
does CSS. A swatch library saved as CSS gets four corner layers, a
value for the `background` property (a circle when the swatch is
turned by an angle that is not a multiple of 90 degrees). The .ai
editing data holds a radial gradient through the corners. The
document exports give a warning.
- SVG export: a stroke drawn as an image, as conic wedges or as diamond
quarters now covers the miters, caps and arrowheads that reach past
its paint box.
- PDF import reads a function-based shading whose color is the same
along each square about the origin of its space as a diamond.
- Object > Expand gives nested squares or a mesh of rings.

action.batch read its true/false options with a fallback, so
{"stopOnError": "false"} kept stopping on the first error, and a
number for a string option such as label or datasetFileNaming was
dropped or turned into an empty string. The source check also ran
after the destination folder was made.
includeSubdirs, overrideOpen, overrideSave, overrideExport and
stopOnError now take only true or false, and source, folder,
destination, destinationFolder, datasetFileNaming and label take only
a string. Any other value is an error naming the key, given before the
destination folder is made or a file is opened. A null reads as a key
left out. The params text and docs/mcp.md say so.
script_pump read vectorcraft_doc::cancel only after the guard that keeps
a run waiting, so a run asleep in $.sleep went on waiting until its wake
time (up to 1,000 ms), and a run waiting at a dialog or for approval to
grow waited until someone answered. The check now runs before that
guard, after the dialog-failure check, so a canceled request ends the
run at the next slice and every document goes back.
