view.proofSetup, view.proofColors, view.overprintPreview and
view.separationsPreview stored the proof view and raised every open
document's revision on each run. They did this also when the request
asked for the view that was already showing, for example Proof Colors on
while it is on, or Proof Setup with no params. Each such run redrew every
canvas. When the active document's revision changes, the canvas also
sends a tool that asks for it a new hover event, although the pointer has
not moved.
- The four commands compare the new proof view with the current one. When
the two are equal, the commands leave the view and the revisions as
they are. Separations Preview's visible plates are compared as a set,
so the same plates in another order do not redraw.
- view.separationsPreview with `plates` naming a plate twice shows it
once, so one `toggle` of that plate hides it.
- color.loadProfile with a new file of the CMYK profile that Proof Setup
targets gives the documents new revisions, as it does for a working
space. Before, running Proof Setup again redrew the documents through
the new file; it now leaves an unchanged view alone.
- color.removeProfile gives the documents new revisions only when Proof
Setup targets the removed profile.
Paragraph panel menu > Bunri-Kinshi (with the East Asian options) and
text.setFormat {bunriKinshi} turn it on per paragraph. A line then
never breaks inside two em dashes, two horizontal ellipses, two two-dot
leaders or the two halves of a vertical kana repeat mark, the pairs W3C
JLREQ lists for class cl-08 (https://www.w3.org/TR/jlreq/#cl-08), nor
inside a chain of em dashes. Both composers, vertical type, Kinsoku
Shori Type, hyphenation and No Break follow it, and a pair wider than
the line stays whole on it. Justification and letter spacing add no
space inside a pair.
The setting works only with a Kinsoku Set: with Kinsoku Set None the
paragraph keeps the value without effect and the menu item is
unavailable. It is off by default, saved with the paragraph only when
on, carried by paragraph styles (Paragraph Style Options > East Asian
Composition Settings), and turned off by Reset Panel. A value that is
not true or false is refused. The .ai editing data has no field for it,
so saving reports a paragraph with it on and a pair in it as left out.

A tool step in the Learn panel now draws the tool's name as a link. Clicking
it, or pressing Enter or Space on it, runs the new learn.locateTool command,
which marks the tool where the current layout shows it without choosing it
(the help page:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/get-started/learn-the-basics/learn-skills-quick-skill-guide.html).
- A tool shown on its toolbar button has the button marked, and a toolbar
that has scrolled it out of view scrolls it back.
- A tool in a collapsed group opens the group's flyout with its row marked;
the group keeps the tool it shows.
- A group torn off into a strip comes to the front with the tool marked.
- Toolbars made with New Toolbar are searched after the Tools panel.
- A tool that no shown toolbar holds is marked in the All Tools drawer.
- A Tools panel hidden with Window › Tools shows again. In Presentation
Mode, or while Tab hides the toolbars, the reply is "unavailable" with a
reason.
- The mark is a 2 pt outline in the selection color. It lasts 3 seconds,
until Escape (also when Escape closes the All Tools drawer), or until the
next link replaces it. These are VectorCraft's own rules.
The command takes a tool id and rejects a missing, non-string or unknown id.
Catalog steps mark the linked name in brackets, and the catalog test checks
that each one names its tool. Rows for the command and the link's hover text
are added to every complete catalog.

Twist was read as a live effect only on an unstroked path or compound
path whose segments were all straight, and on those at any angle.
- A curved path or compound path, or a group, with nothing stroked and
no guide in it now opens with its Twist live when the twist is at
most 90° either way. Larger twists on these keep the file's drawn
look. The 90° limit is VectorCraft's own.
- Paths and compound paths with straight segments and nothing stroked
keep their Twist live at any angle, as before, guides included.
- Stroked objects keep the drawn look, as before.
- .ai save keeps a link to a Twist graphic style on the objects the
reader reads it on, and leaves it out, with the style-link warning,
on the others.

SVG Options gets an Include Variable Data checkbox (the `variableData`
option, off by default). With it on, the saved SVG carries the document's
text variables, its data sets' text values and each text variable's bound
type object as a `variableSets` element, in the layout Load Variable
Library already reads. A bound object is named by its element id in a
`docRef="id('...')"` attribute; an object without an id gets one.
Opening such an SVG reads the variable data back: the text variables, the
data sets (none active) and the bindings, so choosing a data set changes
the type again. Variable data that Load Variable Library would refuse is
left out with a warning, and the art opens. Markup that only looks like
the element (in comments, CDATA sections, processing instructions or the
document type declaration) is skipped.
Variables of other kinds, names XML can't hold, more than 256 text
variables or 1,000 data sets, and variable data over 8 MiB or 2,000,000
XML nodes are left out of the file, each with a warning. Type written as
outlines opens as art, so its variables are written unbound, with a
warning.
A painted live effect on a fill can return a piece with several fills,
each a copy of that fill with its effects. A Transform effect after it
moved the piece, but only the first returned fill's raster effects
followed it: with a Drop Shadow before the painted effect and a 200%
Transform effect after it, the first fill's shadow offset became 20 pt
and the second fill's stayed 10 pt. Each returned fill and stroke now
takes the followed values.
css.export read `scope` and `path` with a lenient string lookup, so a
value of the wrong type (`5`, `true`, `["all"]`, `null`) was treated as
left out: the selection was exported, or the CSS came back as data
instead of being written. Both keys are now checked before anything is
generated or written, and a supplied value that is not a string is an
error ("`scope` must be a string", "`path` must be a string"). A
left-out scope still exports the selection, and a left-out path still
returns the CSS.
css.generate and css.export with scope "all" do not use `ids` or `id`,
but a malformed one is now an error there too, as it already is for the
selection.
A layer expanded to its edges keeps the paths made into guides inside it, as it keeps its ruler
guides. A clipping group with Revolve and Rotate is cut for Revolve, the effect the canvas draws,
so its fills go in one piece and art with more fills than a 3D effect takes still expands.
An HP-GL wedge of almost no radius drawn with an adaptive line type
(LT-1;EW0.000001,0,0;) leaves a lone moveto. Fitting the dashes to its
corners indexed the empty segment list and panicked while rendering. Such
a subpath now uses the exact plan, which has no runs to fit.
Found by import_fuzz::random_hpgl_instructions_never_panic.
Plain RGB fills and strokes and RGB gradient stops were written with
their display RGB values. The reader reads those values as working RGB,
so with a working RGB space other than sRGB a reopened file was saved
with different RGB values and CMYK equivalents. They are now written
with the color's own RGB values, as global process and spot colors
already were.
A spot color in a gradient stop now writes its RGB values from its full
color as the palette writes it (Lab to four decimals and clamped), the
same values its CMYK equivalent comes from.
artboard.new no longer raises a width or height below 1 pt to 1 pt, and artboard.setProps raises only a supplied side, so an edit to a small artboard's name or lock keeps its size.
many_tiling_patterns_and_spot_inks_read_in_linear_time checked that a
program setting 200,000 different tiling patterns and 200,001 spot inks
reads within 20 s of wall-clock time. It reads in about 4 s alone; while
the crate's full test suite ran in parallel it took more than 20 s and
failed.
In test builds, the tiling pattern lookup now counts on its thread how
many patterns it compared with the one it looked for (tilings_compared,
gated with cfg(test) like SELECTOR_TESTS in the SVG reader's CSS). The
test, renamed many_tiling_patterns_are_found_again_through_a_hash, reads
through import on a thread of its own and asserts that its 200,000
lookups compared at most 200,000 patterns in all. When every pattern
hashes alike, as when each lookup went through every pattern made so
far, the lookups compare 19,999,900,000 and the test fails. The test
still reads the 200,001 spot inks and checks their swatches, but it does
not count or time their lookups.
The other tests that read through read_soon wait 300 s instead of 20 s,
as a guard against a read that never ends; their budgets and limits
decide what they check. work_on_the_longest_dash_pattern_ends_soon (4.5 s
alone) now also checks that the states gsave, grestore, gstate,
currentgstate and setgstate save, make or set hold the one 65,535-entry
dash pattern, so a copy of the pattern in any of them fails it.
In a CID-keyed font whose CIDFont the file only names, a cshow procedure
now runs with the CIDFont as the current font, rootfont gives the
composite font, and the procedure gets each code's last byte. A show in
the CIDFont shows the character of that code, and any other string is a
rangecheck error. The current font is restored after each procedure.
A kshow procedure no longer leaves a font it sets current: the current
font is restored when the procedure completes, for every font, and a
kshow the procedure runs sees the font the procedure set.
In GBT-H and CNS2-H, whose mappings are not read, a byte that starts no
row-and-cell code is a code of its own.
docs/gaps.md dates this G9 work in a bullet of its own.
Under --automation-read-root, document.json names a linked image or
placed file in a stored brush's art outside the read roots by its file
name alone, as it does in the layers. A stored brush entry that does not
read as a brush is left out of the reply, and a stored brush library
that is not a list becomes an empty one. A link whose file is inside the
read roots loses its stored relative path when that path leads outside
them, from the folder of the file the document was read from or from the
document's own folder.
Under automation read roots, a reply's base64 `thumbnail` (a library
item's PNG in `library.get`, a page's PNG in `document.pdfInfo`) was
searched for hidden library paths like any other text, so a short path
that happened to occur in the encoded bytes was rewritten and the image
broke. `thumbnail` now joins `dataBase64`, `pngBase64` and
`thumbnailBase64` as encoded data that is left unchanged; text under it
that is not base64 is still searched.
craft-update and craft-vectorcraft-format move from storytold/craft-libs
at 6e03f65bf to e98299546, craft-libs main with 47b6bbadf. The startup
check's thread now reads whether the copy installs itself, so a slow
disk no longer stalls a frame when the startup prompt is built. Both
crates stay on one craft-libs revision; the other craft-libs pins are
unchanged. Cargo.lock changes only the two crates' source.
When the action New Action made for the recording in progress is deleted,
Stop Playing/Recording keeps none of the recorded steps. The step and
file limits measured a new action in the original set instead, so a
recorded command could be refused while the set's file was near 8 MiB.
The recording now has no target in that case, and no limit applies.
With Size 0, Roughen moved no point but still replaced each segment
with its Detail's points joined by straight lines (Corner) or by a
smoothed curve through them (Smooth), so a curved path lost its shape.
At Size 0 each segment is now split at the Detail spacing into pieces
of equal length on the segment itself, with `pathtools::insert_at`: a
straight segment gets corner points without handles, and a curve gets
smooth points whose handles follow it. The path keeps its outline with
Smooth or Corner points alike. The params text of `distort.roughen`
describes size 0.
`insert_at` now counts the anchors added before each returned mark in
one pass. It counted them again for every split segment, which took
quadratic time on a path with many split segments. Its results are
unchanged.
Existing documents with a Roughen of Size 0 on a curved path, or with
Smooth points, draw differently.
This is VectorCraft's own rule. What Roughen does is described in
