Window > Brush Libraries > Bristle Brushes holds ten original bristle
brushes generated in code, one for each tip shape: Fine Liner, Pointed
Flat, Stubby Round, Dry Scrub, Soft Dome, Filbert, Angled Round, Angled
Flat, Fan Blender and Grass Fan. Their names and values are VectorCraft's
own, and every value lies inside the range the bristle brush keeps.
A test checks the ranges, that every tip shape is covered, that no name
matches a default brush or another library's brush, that adding the
library is one undo step and a second add adds nothing, and that a saved
library reopens with the same brushes. The library and brush names have
rows in every catalog. docs/mcp.md lists the library.
A literal makes an extensible object whose properties are writable and
configurable, and an array whose length is writable. toSource wrote a
property defined with writable or configurable false, a sealed, frozen or
non-extensible object or array, and an array with a read-only length as an
ordinary literal, so evaluating the text gave an open value.
toSource now throws a TypeError for each of these, at any depth, as it
already does for getters, hidden properties and other prototypes.
Properties defined with every flag on are written as before.
Clicks, the hover pointer and marquees with the selection tools already
leave out the area that raster effects paint beyond an object. New tests
in crates/engine/src/tests/select_effects.rs hold that in place for drop
shadows, Outer Glow and Gaussian Blur on paths, groups, point type,
symbol art and images, for Shift-click, Direct Selection, the hover
pointer, a drag from a selected object's shadow and a marquee. hit_leaf
gets a doc comment, and docs/target-app-parity.md gets a line citing

Window › Graphic Style Libraries › Textures, after Hand-Drawn, holds eight
styles that paint their fills and strokes with the texture effects: Fine
Grain (Grain), Canvas Weave and Burlap Sack (Texturizer), Cracked Glaze
(Craquelure), Mosaic Floor (Mosaic Tiles), Quilted Squares (Patchwork),
Leaded Glass (Stained Glass) and Damp Paper (Water Paper). The styles,
their names and their settings are VectorCraft's own.
Each catalog has rows for the library and style names. Docs: docs/mcp.md,
docs/gaps.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
view.setZoom, view.screenMode, window.panel, file.revert, file.close,
ui.newSwatch, ui.symbolOptions, ui.batchDialog and file.exportSelection
read a number or switch of the wrong type as its default and went on, so
`view.setZoom {"zoom": "200"}` set 100%. They now refuse it and change
nothing.
The control channel's ui.key, ui.move, ui.wheel, ui.click, ui.drag,
ui.pointer, ui.resize, ui.screenshot, ui.render and ui.set, and the
headless session's key, pointer and render calls, do the same for their
numbers, switches and mods, before any input is queued. Omitting a param
or giving null keeps its default.
A shape tool now takes a press as a bounding-box handle's only on the
drawn handle square, kept square to the screen: 3 screen points from the
handle's centre along each axis at the default Anchor Size, a half point
more or less per step. A press just beside a handle draws a new shape.
drawing_gestures_snap_to_smart_guides started its second rectangle on the
first rectangle's corner handle, which stays selected; it now deselects
first.
After File > Open the status bar showed only the first of the import's
notes. A file whose layers weren't read could give another note first:
the EPS reader adds its note about brushes left out of the Brushes panel
before the note that the file came in as its page, so the status bar
named the brushes and not the page.
The status bar now names the first note that says reading the file left
something out (the notes that make Save ask before writing over the
file), else the first note, and still counts them all. When there are
several, hovering the message lists them in that order, translated where
the catalogs have them, as many as fit in the window and at most 30,
then how many more. Screen readers get the list after the message. The
status bar shows the list only while it shows the open's message. The
open's reply keeps its notes in the import's order.
Docs: docs/control-protocol.md (app.open), docs/target-app-parity.md.
Revolve, Extrude & Bevel, Inflate and Rotate take a Shadows switch on the
Lighting tab, with Position (Behind Object or Below Object), Distance from
Object (0 to 100%) and Shadow Bounds (10 to 400%), saved in the effect as
shadow, shadowPosition, shadowDistance and shadowBounds.
With shadows on, the first light casts a hard-edged vector shadow of the
solid: every face of every solid of the object projected along the light
onto a plane behind the object (square to the view) or below it (square to
its own vertical axis and turned with it), filled black with the nonzero
rule at 50% times the opacity of the art that casts it, in that art's
blending mode, and drawn behind the solids. Distance moves the plane away
by a share of the object's largest size; Bounds ends the plane at a square
about the foot of the object's center, four times that size across at
100%. No shadow is drawn while Shading is off, when the first light's
intensity is 0, or when it does not reach the plane. A member's opacity
mask and blending mode apply to the part of the shadow it casts. A shadow
is cast from at most 327,680 faces; past that, commands are refused and a
loaded file draws the source path. The canvas, SVG and PDF exports draw the
shadow, and Expand Appearance keeps it as a path. Values out of range are
refused before the document changes.
Docs: docs/three-d.md, docs/mcp.md, docs/effects-parity.md and the
docs/target-app-parity.md evidence list.
These commands read optional numbers and flags with f64_or and bool_or,
so a value such as "10" or "yes" ran the command with the default. They
now return an error and leave the document, the selection and the undo
history as they were. Omitting a key or giving null behaves as before.
- edit.duplicate, edit.paste, guide.move, object.slice.duplicate: dx, dy
- guide.move: copy
- document.node: summary
- edit.undoGroup.end: cancel
- guide.add: vertical
- guide.select, object.slice.select: toggle
- select.editSaved: delete; newName must be a string
- select.save: name must be a string
- file.close: index must be a non-negative integer
Object > Image Trace > Make and Make and Expand, and Object > Pattern >
Make and Edit Pattern, are no longer listed or accepted by
`ui.action.insertMenuItem`. Their menu items do more than run the
command: Image Trace traces off the UI thread with progress and Cancel,
and the Pattern items open the Pattern Options panel. Action playback
runs only the command.
Insert Stop and Insert Menu Item, given a set and action, now count the
steps that the recording in progress adds to that set, so the set as
Stop Playing/Recording leaves it stays within 10,000 steps per action
and 8 MiB as a file.
The command descriptions list every kind of menu item that cannot be
a step.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
Document Setup gains alignNewObjectsToPixelGrid. When it is on, every
path or compound path drawn in the document (shape tools, Pen,
Curvature, Pencil, Paintbrush, Blob Brush, grids, flares and add-on
shapes) gets the pixel-aligned property and snaps in the same undo
step. Text, paste, duplicate, Place and import are not affected.
- The Transform panel menu has an Align New Objects to Pixel Grid
item for the active document.
- New Document's Advanced Options has the checkbox; the Mobile and Web
presets turn it on, other presets and older saved presets leave it
off, and file.new, Save Preset and Recent keep it.
- The setting is saved with the document only when it is on.

Save and Save As as EPS always wrote the chosen artboard as the page and
%%BoundingBox, and the EPS Options hid Use Artboards, so art past the
artboard was left outside the file's bounding box.
The EPS Options of Save As now show Use Artboards with All or Range
under it, unchecked by default. Unchecked, Save writes one file whose
bounding box fits all the visible art, as Export does, without the
artboards' background colors; with no visible art the page is the first
artboard, in its color. Checked with two or more chosen artboards, the
file at the path is the central file of the visible art and each
artboard is also written to <name>_<artboard>.eps beside it. Checked
with one, that artboard is the page of the file at the path, the
behavior Save had since #4293 (mockydevs). The file the document becomes
still carries the whole editable document.
Naming artboards with artboard, artboards or range still turns Use
Artboards on. file.formatOptions now reports it on, with those artboards
as the range, and the Save As dialog opens that way.
Changed default: an EPS saved with Save or Save As, an opened EPS
included, now gets a bounding box around its visible art unless Use
Artboards is checked or the save names artboards; an opened EPS saved
back this way loses the margins its page had. selectedOnly stays an
Export option, and Save refuses it.
Docs: params text of document.save and file.formatOptions, the
useArtboards option text, docs/mcp.md save_file,
docs/file-format-parity.md, docs/target-app-parity.md, and notes on the
earlier EPS Save evidence in docs/gaps.md, docs/roadmap.md and
docs/target-app-parity.md.
