The Confining file access bullet said the app's own folders are not
confined. It now names the commands that check the roots for a file
there: the arrowheads edit, reload and list commands, the New Document
profile commands and file.new, and the Scripts folder listing and run,
each linked to its section.
graphicStyle.new linked the object it was made from, the art of a column
or marker design in a graph series included, and graphicStyle.redefine
gave the new look to every object still linked to the style. Redefining
the style from another object then restyled that art, which the graph
draws again from the design.
- graphicStyle.new makes a style from the art without linking it.
- graphicStyle.redefine leaves the art's look as it was and unlinks it,
as an edited object is, whether the art is a linked object (as in a
document saved before this change) or the source.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, the params text of graphicStyle.new and
graphicStyle.redefine.
A gradient vector drawn on the art, a click that applies one, and the
dragged start and end handles snapped through snap_draw, which gathers
the bounds and anchors of the art only. Path segments, View › Snap to
Glyph's guides and the construction guides through the vector's start
did not pull them, and a click applied the gradient from the pointer
rather than from the snapped point. They now snap through DrawSnap, as
the Pen and Line Segment tools do:
- The press gathers the targets, for a vector drawn on the art and the
start and end handles only, and the drag keeps them. A click applies
the gradient from the snapped press.
- A dragged end or handle leaves its start as a Line Segment's end does:
it lands on the construction guides through the start, and with Shift
it keeps to 45° steps from the Constrain Angle and snaps along them.
- The pointer hovering where a press would draw a vector (anywhere with
art selected, over art with nothing selected), and not over the
annotator, shows the guides of the point the vector would start on.
A press that snaps onto a nearby target no longer starts the drag
early: the 3 px drag threshold counts from where the pointer was
pressed, not from the snapped start.
A graph keeps paints for its series and labels, and character and
paragraph style names for its labels, which each redraw gives the
marks and labels. Copy did not follow them, so a graph pasted into
another document left those swatches and styles behind, and a paste
that renamed them left the graph pointing at the old names.
Copy now collects them and paste relinks them, as it does for type.
Paste without Formatting drops the labels' style names, so it still
leaves text styles behind.
A raster effect (Drop Shadow, Outer Glow, Gaussian Blur and the other
effects that paint pixels) on a symbol instance's topmost fill now draws
on each filled shape of the symbol's art, and one on its topmost stroke
draws on each stroked shape, after any geometry effects listed before
it. The same rules as for geometry effects apply: only a visible fill or
stroke with an opacity above 0 counts, a group's own fills and strokes
in the art take the effect, and an instance inside the art passes it on.
The canvas, Use Preview Bounds and the drawn bounds, SVG and PDF export
draw it, and Object > Expand Appearance is enabled for such an instance:
a shadow or glow becomes an image under the instance, and a blur,
feather or inner glow replaces it with the image, in one undo step.
Existing documents with a raster effect on a symbol instance's fill or
stroke draw differently: before, the effect drew nothing.
