The horizon test compares a point's signed w with the largest absolute
value in the bottom row, and the invertibility test compares the
absolute value of the determinant with the largest absolute value among
its six products, so a negative determinant counts as invertible. A
stored projection that overflows is divided by the largest absolute
value in its bottom row.
A homography means the same map at any nonzero uniform scale of its
entries, but `apply`, `is_invertible` and `inverse` compared w and the
determinant with absolute thresholds. A map stored with small entries
refused every point and could not be inverted, and a map with large
entries drew points past its horizon.
- `apply` refuses a point when w is at most 1e-9 times the largest
magnitude in the w row.
- A map counts as invertible when its determinant is more than 1e-15
times the largest of the six products the determinant sums, taken on
a copy rescaled by a power of two. An inverse whose determinant
overflows or underflows is taken on that copy.
With Envelope Options > Distort Appearance on, a path whose Transform
effect has Scale Strokes & Effects or Transform Patterns on, or copies it
with a gradient, was baked with the effect as geometry only: every copy
kept the original's stroke weight, dashes and pattern placement before
the envelope bent it. bake_appearance now makes such a path into the
per-copy art that drawing, export and Expand Appearance already use, and
bakes each copy's strokes into filled outlines from there.
Each fill or stroke without such a Transform effect is drawn on the object's geometry again, so its cost now counts toward the budget that limits the Transform effect's copies. The object's own geometry is no longer counted a second time next to the pieces that replace it. The Transform effect options entry in docs/target-app-parity.md links the current help pages.
Part of #885
A Transform effect in a fill's or stroke's own effect list now applies its
Scale Strokes & Effects and Transform Patterns options as the same effect on
the object does: the stroke's weight and dashes, the distances of the fill's
or stroke's later effects and its pattern follow the transformation, each
copy once more than the last, and with Transform Objects off the geometry
stays and the options apply once. The fill or stroke becomes an object of
its own in the art the canvas, export and Expand Appearance draw, and Use
Preview Bounds measures that art too (also for the object-level options).
Part of #885
Type selected by id on a hidden, locked or template layer, or outside
the isolated group, no longer counts as selected type: the command stays
off and does not select that frame's thread. The check reads the
object's ancestry, so the Select menu does not walk the whole document.
Select › Same › Link Block Series no longer counts hidden or locked type
inside a selected group, or type inside a hidden or locked object there,
as selected. A group that holds only such type leaves the command off, and
the command does not select the other frames of that type's thread.
Select › Same › Link Block Series (select.same.linkBlockSeries) selects every
frame of the threads that the selected type objects, and the type inside
selected groups, are in, in thread order. Type in no thread selects itself,
other selected objects are left out, and with frames of several threads
selected it selects all of them. Hidden, locked and out-of-isolation frames
are left out, Reselect repeats it, and it records no undo step. The item is
off while no type is selected.
Menu row in every catalog, docs/mcp.md and a docs/target-app-parity.md line.
File > Open and File > Place read BMP files named .dib or .rle (run-length
encoded bitmaps included), Photoshop files named .pdd and PNG files named
.pns, in any letter case. The Open and Place dialogs list them in "All
readable files", "All placeable files" and their format's own filter, and
Glass's Load Texture lists them too. Linked files with these names update
and relink, the Links panel shows their format, and Edit Original opens
them.
The extensions are read-only: exports still write .bmp, .psd and .png, and
an export to a path with one of the new extensions is refused as before.
The desktop packaging does not associate them with the app.
A double-click on a Radial, Grid or Mirror Repeat with the Selection
tool enters isolation mode on it. There its source art is selected and
edited as usual (a double-click on type in it switches to the Type tool
on that text) and every copy follows, the repeat keeping its settings.
Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts lists every Effect menu item under its menu
path and gives each one a shortcut (stored as effect:<id>, mapped to
effect.dialog {effect}, or effect.apply for an effect without options).
The menu shows it, and pressing it opens that effect's dialog for the
selection.
addon.color.swatchLegend replaces swatch.legend. The dialog sets columns, chip size, gap, the values shown
and whether to use only the swatches selected in the Swatches panel, with a preview; duplicate value
kinds are refused. The Swatches panel menu item is removed. Catalog rows in all 26 languages.
swatch.legend draws a grid of chips, one per colour swatch (the given
ones, else every one), each filled with and linked to its swatch and
labelled with its name and colour values (HEX, RGB, CMYK, Lab or
Grayscale; by default its own model; spot swatches marked), black on
light chips and white on dark ones, as one selected group in one undo
step. The Swatches panel menu's Create Swatch Legend draws the selected
colour swatches, else every one.
Window > Arrange > Tile (window.arrange.tile) splits the document area
into one pane per open document, edge to edge, in a grid with as many
columns as the square root of the number of documents, rounded up. Each
document is fitted to its pane, and fitted again when its pane changes
size (a document opened or closed, the window resized) unless it was
zoomed or scrolled since. The current document's pane is the canvas;
the other panes draw their documents with their artboards, guides,
selected objects and Pixel Preview, and a press in one makes its
document the current one, as a click on its tab does. Window > Arrange >
Consolidate All Windows (window.arrange.consolidateAllWindows) goes back
to one document under its tab. It works the same on the desktop and the
web, and the arrangement is not saved.
Tile is enabled with two or more open documents, and Consolidate All
Windows while documents are tiled. ui.inspect reports tiled and the
panes.
With Real-time Drawing and Editing off, a drag drew one outline per selected
object with no limit, so a selection with hundreds of thousands of points
built the overlay mesh that the canvas's 100,000-point limit keeps it from
drawing at rest (#525, #2460). Past the same number of points the drag now
draws the moved selection's bounds, as the canvas does for the selection at
rest.
With Preferences › Performance › Real-time Drawing and Editing off, a
Selection tool move drag leaves the object in place until release, and
the bounding box was hidden for the whole drag. The box, with its
handles, now follows the pointer during the drag (Session::deferred_move
gives the offset the document has not taken yet). Scale and rotate
drags, and drags with Real-time Drawing on, hide the box as before.

Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts listed commands whose params are all optional
but that do nothing or fail when a key runs them with none, such as
Transparency (transparency.set) and Opacity Mask Options
(transparency.setOpacityMask). These are now left out while they have
no shortcut, along with Align and Distribute, Delete Swatch, Move
Swatch, Spot Options, Adjust Color Balance, the library and data set
loaders, stroke.set, layer.setProps and menu queries that no menu item
runs. A key saved for one of them before keeps it listed so it can be
cleared.
A shortcut for a command whose menu bar items all give it the same
params now runs what a click on that item runs, so Clean Up..., Print
Ink Fixes... and Find and Replace... open their dialogs.
Exports warn about type in a symbol's art that is set in a missing
font and point to Find Font, but Find Font and Replace Missing Fonts
only looked at the type on the layers.
- text.fonts lists the fonts of the type in the document's symbols too;
with selectionOnly, of the symbols the selected instances show.
- select.font (Find) also selects the instances of the symbols whose
art uses the font in type that is not hidden or locked.
- text.replaceFont changes that type in the symbols in scope, so every
instance follows. Type hidden or locked in a symbol's art, and the
type of symbols that only a selected hidden or locked instance shows,
keeps its font and is counted in skipped.
- addon.cleanup.replaceFonts replaces missing fonts in symbols' type.
While a symbol is edited, its type is taken from the editing layer
only, so it is counted and changed once.
A manual kerning value on a character in right-to-left text changed the
space between it and the character before it in reading order, under
both Auto and Optical kerning. The shaped glyphs of a right-to-left
cluster now also move right by the value, so the space its advance
gains is at its left, between it and the next character in reading
order. Left-to-right text and tracking are unchanged.
Optical kerning no longer takes the left glyph's manual value off the
advance it measures, since right to left the value is in that glyph's
offset as well.
Action Options… opens the New Set and Set Options dialog, headed Action
Options, with the selected action's name; OK renames the action and keeps
its steps. The new command ui.action.rename {set, action, name} does the
rename and refuses an index past the last set or action or an empty name.
Part of #1629.
The Actions panel did not save which set was current, so after a restart
Begin Recording put the new action into the first set (Default Actions)
instead of the set the user had picked. The current set is now saved
with the UI preferences as an index into the saved sets; a value that is
not an index, or is past the last set, leaves no set current.
With no set current, Begin Recording records into the first set as
before, and now makes that set current so the panel shows where the
recording goes.
