Where two open paths lie along the same stretch, the planar map gave
that stretch to one of them only, so a merge or an erase across it left
the other path in place there. Every other open path along an edge now
has its own piece in `lines_under`, under a closed path's outline or
along a line in front. `lines`, `edges` and Live Paint's edges stay one
per stretch, and an Alt-click there still takes the piece in front.
Where a line lies under the outline of a closed path in front of it (such as
a shape an earlier merge made, which takes the place of the art in front of
the lines), the planar map gave that stretch only to the closed path, so the
line had no piece there. A merge or an erase across it left the line whole,
and the next map split the new shape along it into two regions.
- pathops: each planar edge records every input it lies on, and
BuilderArrangement::lines_under holds the lines' pieces under a closed
outline in front of them. lines, edges and Live Paint are unchanged.
- tools: BuilderMap adds those pieces to its lines, so a merge or an erase
removes the stretch between the regions it takes, as it does elsewhere.
An Alt-click where a line lies under an edge hits the one in front.
The bucket outlines the face under the pointer at its Width setting and an
edge at half of it (4 px and 2 px by default), as the help page says faces
are highlighted with a thick line and edges with a thin line. The Live
Paint Selection tool keeps one width for faces and edges.
Double-clicking the Live Paint Bucket did nothing, and the tool always
filled on a click, stroked on Shift-click and highlighted in red at
4 px. It now opens Live Paint Bucket Options with Paint Fills, Paint
Strokes, Highlight, Color and Width.
- Paint Fills (on) and Paint Strokes (off) set what a click paints.
With Paint Strokes alone, a click strokes the edge within 4 px of the
pointer. With both on, a click strokes an edge within 4 px and
otherwise fills the face. With both off, a click paints nothing.
- Shift switches Paint Fills alone to Paint Strokes alone and back, and
switches both to Paint Fills alone. With the defaults, Shift-click
strokes the edge as before.
- Highlight turns the outline of the face or edge under the pointer on
or off; Color (a layer color or a custom color) and Width (1 to 20 px)
set it. With Paint Strokes alone, a selection of ordinary paths no
longer highlights a region, since a click there paints nothing.
- The options are tool options (tool.setOption {tool:
"livePaintBucket"}): they last across tool switches and are saved
with the preferences.

With the Live Paint Bucket, Alt-click on vector art samples its fill,
stroke and stroke weight into the paint defaults, and on a placed image
it samples the pixel as a solid fill with no stroke. Alt+Shift-click
samples only the color under the pointer, including an intermediate
gradient color or image pixels, into the active fill or stroke. Neither
click paints or changes the selection or selected art, and the next
Bucket click paints with the sampled paint. While Alt is held, the
Bucket shows the Eyedropper cursor and no face or edge highlight.
appearance.copyFrom takes `defaultsOnly: true` to update only the paint
defaults, and paint.sampleColor takes `clearStroke: true` to clear the
stroke default after an image sample into the fill.
A drag started while the map of a large selection was being built was
recorded for replay. Escape ended the drag but kept the recorded
gesture, so the release was ignored, the tool kept waiting, and the
next drag's events were added to the canceled one. Escape now drops it.
The Live Paint Selection tool acted only on the press, so a drag
selected at most the one face or edge under the pointer. The reference
app selects every face and edge a marquee touches, partly enclosed ones
included, and a Shift-drag adds them to the selection or removes them.
A drag of 3 pixels or more now draws a marquee. On release, select.set
selects the faces and edges it touches, or select.none runs when it
touches none. With Shift held at the press, select.toggle runs with
what it touches, and nothing runs when it touches none. A face that holds the whole marquee counts. Select Fills off
leaves faces out, and Select Strokes off leaves edges out.
A click now changes the selection on release instead of on the press,
so Escape between the press and the release, which also removes the
marquee, leaves the selection as it was. The tool no longer highlights
or selects the faces and edges of a Live Paint group that is locked, on
a locked layer or on a locked artboard, or that is outside the isolated
art in isolation mode.

Escape did not cancel a drag with the Anchor Point, Mesh, Shape Builder
and Measure tools, or a Direct Selection drag of a mesh point, a corner
widget or the brackets of type on a path: the drag went on until the
mouse was released. Escape cancels every other Direct Selection drag
and a drag with the Free Transform, Rotate, Reflect, Scale, Shear and
Gradient tools.
Escape now cancels an Anchor Point drag, a Mesh tool drag of a mesh
point or handle, and a Direct Selection drag of a mesh point or handle,
a corner widget or the brackets of type on a path. The art goes back to
how the press found it, no undo step is added, and the rest of the drag
and the release send nothing. Escape during a Shape Builder drag ends
it, so the release merges and deletes nothing; the tool takes Escape
only during the drag. Escape during a Measure tool drag ends it and
brings back the measurement shown before the press. Escape after an
Anchor Point or Direct Selection press that has not moved yet drops the
press. Otherwise, outside a drag, Escape does what it did before.

A Shape Builder click or drag over a selection of more than 128
segments merged on the UI thread, so the app stopped drawing and
answering until the merge was done. The tool now computes such a
merge on another thread from the map it built for the hover.
Meanwhile the canvas keeps drawing, the touched regions stay
highlighted and the pointer is the busy pointer. When the merge is
done, the tool runs shapeBuilder.merge with the gesture's params as
one undo step, and the command takes the computed shapes when it
would compute the same ones. The web build merges in the command, as
before.
A press while the map is still being built no longer waits for it on
the UI thread: the tool records the gesture and makes it once the map
is there.
Clicks, drags and the Shape Builder's arrow keys made during the
merge, and commands, menu items, the app's own dialogs, saves and tool
or document switches, run after it on the merged art; engine queries
that only read run at once. A change to the selected paths made
outside a command drops the merge. The headless host and ui.pointer
reply once the merge is applied.
The Shape Builder and the Live Paint Bucket keep their map of the
selection over a new revision of the document when the selected paths
and their outlines are unchanged, instead of building it again.
