The profiles Edit > Assign Profile gives a document stayed the active
color settings after another document came to the front, so a new,
opened or switched-to document drew and converted its colors through the
previous document's profile, and closing the last document left it in
use.
The session now puts the front document's profiles in use (the working
spaces where it has none, or no document is open) after a new or opened
document, a tab switch, a close, File > Revert, every command including
each batch step and Undo or Redo of Assign Profile, a failed batch or
plug-in call, a script's rollback and slice boundaries, a canceled
preview, undo group or undo scope, and for each document Export All Open
and the update of placed documents work in. The active settings are
rebuilt, and the documents redrawn, only when they change.
Clear, path.deleteAnchors, Cut, Copy and Cut Path scanned every selected
anchor or segment of a path once for each of its subpaths, so a path with
thousands of subpaths took time that grew with the square of their count.
The selection sets are ordered by subpath, so a new helper, subpath_refs,
reads one subpath's entries with a range lookup instead. The results are
unchanged.
With one selected interior anchor on each of 8,000 open subpaths of one
path, Clear took a median of 74 ms of thread CPU time before and 3 ms
after (release build, five runs each; the timings are noisy because the
CPU was shared and loaded).
Tests in delete_path_pieces.rs check exact surviving subpaths and their
order for anchor and segment selections across open and closed subpaths,
an untouched subpath, references to missing subpaths and indexes, one
Undo/Redo step and a second Clear, and Cut Path on several subpaths.
The fuzz case counted objects that match the look style C applies, so a
C read with no paint also passed. It now also checks that C's look has
no fill and one red 2 pt stroke.
The fuzz case also loads its .ai library with graphicStyle.loadLibrary,
applies every style to the rich document's objects and then applies a
red 2 pt stroke style read before the fuzzed one, and checks that the
stroke style reaches the objects whenever the fuzzed text is only paint
operators.
A style written as one paint (`/SimpleStyle` with its paint operators)
was read as a style with no fill and no stroke. A graphic style library
listed it, and applying it cleared the object's fill and stroke.
Such a style now reads as the fill and stroke its `stroke fill Xd`
turns on, with the stroke's width, caps, joins, miter limit and dashes,
and its `Xy` transparency. A style whose paint is not read here (a
gradient or pattern fill, a pattern stroke, no `Xd`) is left out of the
library instead of coming in empty.

File > Open and File > Place read QuickDraw pictures, versions 1 and 2,
from .pct, .pic and .pict files, with or without the file's 512 bytes
of application data; a version 2 picture also opens by its content.
The reader plays the opcodes of Apple's Opcodes in Pictures table on
the metafile player: lines, rectangles, rounded rectangles, ovals,
arcs, polygons and regions become paths, text becomes point type in
the font the picture names, bitmaps, pixel maps and QuickTime JPEG
images become images, and the clip region clips what follows it.
Place puts the picture in one group clipped to its frame. What isn't
read comes back as warnings, and a picture cut short keeps what came
before it. PICT is not written.
Images whose transform flattens them no longer leave their pixel data
in the document. Formats whose signature starts the file are detected
before PICT, which is known by bytes 522 or 10.

View > Proof Setup > Working CMYK simulates the working CMYK space of
Color Settings in Proof Colors and Separations Preview, also in a
document assigned another CMYK profile. The active context keeps the
working context beside the assigned profiles, and the proof table cache
key includes the working settings, so a change of the working CMYK space
shows in the next proof.
Edit > Assign Profile wrote the profiles it assigned into the working
settings of Edit > Color Settings. Color Settings then showed the
assigned profile as the working space, and the next change in Color
Settings saved that profile for the next start.
The working settings are now kept apart from the settings in effect.
Assign Profile still makes the profiles it assigns the ones colors show
and convert through, and assigning none puts the working space back.
Color Settings shows and saves only the working settings, and a change
there keeps the profiles the document in front is assigned in use.
color.removeProfile refuses only a working space: removing an assigned
profile in use puts the working space in its place, and loading that
profile again puts it back in use.

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.
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.
edit.assignProfile replaced the active color context whenever it tagged a
document, even when the profiles it assigned were the working spaces
already in use. The new context has the same settings, but renderers key
their cached effect images on it, so every open document was redrawn and
every cached blur, shadow or glow image was drawn again.
The command now sets the active settings, and raises the open documents'
revisions so they redraw, only when the working spaces it assigns differ
from the active ones, as edit.colorSettings already does.
This also fixes an intermittent failure of the test
canvas::tests::a_drag_over_a_wide_blur_draws_the_blur_from_the_still_frame.
The Document Setup tests assign the working profiles while it runs, and
its drag frames then drew the blur again instead of reusing the still
frame's image.
The editing copy of a PDF-compatible .ai now holds the Brushes panel's
Calligraphic, Scatter and Art brushes in the panel's order, with the art
of Scatter and Art brushes. A path or compound path with a Calligraphic
brush, or with an Art brush in Tints whose art bends along the path,
keeps the brush on its stroke. Other brushed strokes are still written
as their brush's art.
The writer reads each brush back with the reader's code before writing
it. Brushes that would not come back with their settings, brushes past
the reader's limits and every brush on a large canvas are left out with
a warning. A brush that has the name of an earlier brush that was left
out is written, and no path is written with it on its stroke.
An object linked to a graphic style that is left out at the object
limit now also raises the warning about links left out.

The sweeps in command_sweep.rs kept their own list of file and folder
keys (path, diffPath, folder, destinationFolder) in testkit's
safe_value and again in the temp-folder test, so a command whose file
key was not on the list was sent raw junk strings, and a key written as
`{path | name ...}` (document.open) was never swept.
- The engine exports the plug-in call rules' file keys as
`cmd::key_location`, `cmd::location_in` and `cmd::location_keys`,
which read every key a params description names, the keys of the
commands its `...` entries name, and the schema. `diffPath` is a file
key, so a plug-in call that carries it is refused; Slice Options'
`url` and Export for Screens' `folders` name part of the document, so
a call to object.slice.options with a top-level `url` is accepted.
- testkit's `param_keys` reads the keys the engine reads, and
`junk_params_for_command` and `safe_value_for_command` send every
string under a file or folder key, in arrays and in objects inside
them, as a location in the sweep's temp folder. Each such key also
gets a list of paths and a list of `{ids, path}` objects.
- Every catalog sweep, the serializability sweep included, uses them,
and the temp-folder test checks every key the catalog names, at any
depth.
Type in a font found by name with a predefined non-Unicode CMap, such as
`/Ryumin-Light-83pv-RKSJ-H findfont` or a `composefont` with `GBK-EUC-H`,
opened as Latin-1 letters (`ú{A` for 日本A) in a font whose style carried
the CMap name (`Light-83pv-RKSJ-H`). Only Unicode CMaps were split off the
font name, and `composefont` failed with `undefinedresource` for the others.
- The predefined CMap decoder used by legacy `.ai` type moves to
`import/predefined_cmap.rs`, and EPS import decodes these CMaps' codes
with it (Shift-JIS, EUC, GBK, Big Five, UHC and the other public CMaps).
- A font name splits at a predefined CMap unless an installed face has
the whole name. A CMap that can't be read gives a warning.
- Type over a vertical CMap (`-V`) is set as vertical type, and each code
moves the point one em down the column, the default `DW2`
displacement.
- Every show operator sets decoded type with the same spacing and shaping
as other fonts found by name.
- Decoding a string counts against the import's memory budget.
With automation read roots in force, links.findFiles and text.findFontFiles
replies, including later polls and stops of a search another client started,
leave out the files found outside the caller's read roots, a sought link's
saved path outside them and the folder searched when it is outside them. A
failed search then gives its reason without the path. The rows keep their
names, ids and status, and the counts stay.
image.info gives link: null for a linked file outside the read roots, as
links.info does. text.addFontFiles gives folder: null when the Fonts folder
is outside the read roots and names the copies there by their file names;
the fonts are still copied.

A Cutting Tools add-on command (Object › Plug-ins › Cutting Tools › Weed Box
and Lines…, `addon.cutting.weed`) for vinyl cutting: around the selected art
it adds a weed box, a rectangle at a margin outside the art's bounds, and
weeding lines across the box, horizontal, vertical or both, by count or by
spacing. Each line runs from one side of the box to the other and is left out
over the art and within a gap of its outlines, so it stops at the art and the
waste lifts off in pieces. The lines and the box are straight paths stroked
in a chosen color swatch ([Registration] by default) with no fill, in one
group named Weeding on top of the current layer, selected, as one undo step.
While a clip group, or a group inside one, is edited in isolation, the
group goes on top of the container that holds the outermost clip group
around it.
The art is measured by the outlines a cutter cuts: closed paths by their fill
rule (the hole of an even-odd compound path gets lines too), open paths as
lines, type by its glyph outlines, images by their frames, placed files by
the art they show (by their boxes when the file can't be read), symbol
instances by their art, and blends and other live objects by the art they
draw. A clip group, and an object selected inside one, is measured by what
shows inside the region its clipping paths clip to, and a clipping path
selected on its own as its clip group. Art in a hidden group or layer is
left out. The command refuses an empty selection, art with no outlines, bad
params, and art or lines too complex to measure, with a message.
The dialog has Preview; a Spacing above 0 is used instead of the Count.
Docs: docs/mcp.md (Cutting Tools add-on) and docs/target-app-parity.md.
Object › Plug-ins › Cutting Tools › Stencil Bridges… (`addon.cutting.bridges`)
cuts strips of a set width out of the selected art so that a stencil cut
from it holds together: every island (the inside of an O, A or 8, a hole in
a shape) stays joined to the sheet, directly or through another island.
Bridges take the shortest crossings that fit first, then spread around each
island up to the count asked for, at least two widths apart. They run
vertically, horizontally or along the shortest crossing among 12
directions 15° apart.
- The art is measured by the area its outlines enclose, whatever their
paint, with hidden objects left out; type by its glyph outlines, without
converting the type. The result is one compound path with the strips cut
out, painted as the topmost selected shape with outlines, in the place of
the topmost selected object with outlines. Selected objects with no
outlines in the art stay where they are.
- Keep Original (on by default) moves the selected objects that make up the
art to a new hidden layer, Stencil Original; off replaces them.
- Art with no islands, or none a bridge of the width fits, is left as it is
with a message and no undo step. Islands the cut result still encloses
are counted in `unbridged`, with a message. Otherwise the run is one undo
step.
- Curves are followed within a twentieth of the width (0.002 to 0.25 pt).
Art that reaches more than 10000000 pt from the origin or has more than
200000 anchors is refused before it is combined. Art is also refused when
its combined area has more than 4000 outlines, when its outlines need
more than 200000 straight segments, or when placing the outlines or
joining every island takes more work than a fixed budget allows; when
the budget runs out while extra bridges are added, the bridges found so
far are kept.

- A name may hold \u{...} escapes with any number of hexadecimal digits
up to U+10FFFF. An empty, unclosed, out-of-range or surrogate escape is
not part of a name. Each \u{...} escape read in a name is reported as
syntax newer than ES3, with the escape as written.
- # followed by an escaped name start is one private name, also in the
code of an XML literal, and its escapes are read in the report
(this.#app is #app).
- A # and a name at the start of a line is a private name, not a
directive, when the name starts with an escape, or when the line is
inside braces and the name is not a directive's. A private name whose
decoded name would make the line a directive is reported as written.
- The identifier test against vectorcraft-js also compares braced
escapes.

The Blend panel gets a Create Spine menu (Auto, Always, Never) under Make,
and object.blend.createSpine {mode?} sets or reads it. It is kept with the
preferences, is not an undo step and leaves blends already made as they are.
object.blend.make takes createSpine to choose for one new blend.
Auto and Always give every new blend a straight spine, as before. Never
makes a blend without one: its steps sit where a straight spine puts them,
object.blend.info reports hasSpine: false, easing is refused and dimmed,
Reverse Spine and the spine point commands refuse it, Release gives back
no spine path, and Replace Spine gives it a spine. A blend taking more keys
keeps whether it has a spine. Native files save noSpine; older files open
with their spines.
Builds on #5177 by adambelis.
registry::grant takes a GrantToken, which the engine makes after a
person's approval and when it loads grants.json. registry::install,
install_bytes and folder loads refuse a module that lists permissions no
recorded grant gives this very module (Error::NeedsApproval), and leave
the plug-in under its id and the revision as they were. A folder load's
approve callback only narrows what installs. A module without
permissions, or with an empty list, installs as before.
A folder load in a session with a plug-in store records the store's
grant for each module it approves, so those modules still load.
docs/plugins.md says what the approval does not protect against: native
code linked into the app, and another program running as the same user,
which can edit the Plug-ins folder and its unsigned grants.json.
File › Open and File › Place refused plotter files: HP-GL/2 files
(.plt, .hpgl, .hgl, .hpg) were not a format VectorCraft reads.
The format table gets a read-only HP-GL format, read by a new
vectorcraft_cad::hpgl module. Each line the pen draws becomes a stroked
path in its pen's color and width, with the line type as a dash pattern
and the line attributes as caps and joins. Circles, arcs, wedges and
Bézier curves are drawn as curves. Filled and edged rectangles, wedges
and polygons (polygon mode) become filled or stroked paths, and encoded
polylines, scaling points, user units and rotation are read. Plotter
units (1016 to the inch, y up) become points, and the artboard holds
what the art paints. Place brings the art in as one group. Older HP-GL
files are read by the HP-GL/2 rules for the instructions the two share.
A file is recognized by its first instructions, after any printer
escape sequences and PJL lines, so a plot file also opens under an
extension no other format reads. VectorCraft's own rules where the
device decides: before the first SP the pen is pen 1, and the hard-clip
limits are 11 x 8.5 in, which P2 takes when the file sets no scaling
points. Labels, symbol-mode symbols and raster images are not drawn,
the input window does not clip, hatched fills are filled solid, and
later pages are drawn over the first; the warnings list each. Objects,
path points and pen widths are capped, and the import fuzzer covers
random, mutated and garbage plot files.
An importer plug-in that lists .plt, .hpgl, .hgl or .hpg now opens
those files only when document.open names it with `importer`.

Opening a .psd or .psb used to give one merged image. document.open now
reads the layer records and builds the document from them. The PSD
import options page
(https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/add-and-import-files/import-from-other-apps/photoshop-import-options.html)
says the option that converts layers to objects keeps as much of the
layer structure as it can, merges the layers of a clipping mask into one
layer and discards hidden layers that require merging, and that Import
Hidden Layers brings hidden layers in. document.open does the same, with
hiddenLayers: true for the hidden layers; layers: false keeps the merged
image.
VectorCraft's own rules:
- Each layer becomes a layer holding its pixels as an image, with its
name, visibility, opacity and blend mode. A group becomes a layer of
sublayers; a Pass Through group is not isolated.
- Clipped layers show where the layer below has pixels. That layer's
fill opacity fades only its own pixels. Layers clipped to an
adjustment layer, or to a fill that stores no pixels and isn't drawn,
show over the whole canvas.
- A layer mask becomes the layer's opacity mask, its default color and
invert flag applied; a disabled mask is kept, switched off.
- Fill opacity multiplies the layer's opacity.
- Layers and groups in Dissolve, Linear Burn, Linear Dodge, Vivid Light,
Linear Light, Pin Light, Hard Mix, Subtract, Divide, Darker Color and
Lighter Color are merged with the layers below, whether or not they
hold transparent pixels; Color Dodge, Color Burn and Difference keep
their mode. A merged Dissolve layer's pixels are opaque or
transparent, in a pattern of each layer's own.
- A solid color fill layer that stores no pixels and has no vector mask
comes in as its color (RGB, CMYK, Grayscale, Lab or HSB).
- A layer name stored only as a Pascal string, without its Unicode
name, is read as Mac Roman.
- Adjustment layers, fill layers that aren't drawn, layer effects that
are switched on, knockouts and vector masks are not applied; the
warnings count them.
- A merge whose canvases need more memory than allowed leaves the layer
alone, in the Normal mode or unclipped, with a warning.
This changes what opening a layered PSD does. Batch Trace Folder passes
layers: false, so a PSD is still traced as its merged image. A file
whose layers can't be read, or whose layers and merges need more memory
than allowed, opens as the merged image with a warning.
Lengths, counts, nesting, decoded pixels and the canvases merges make
are bounded. Zipped 32-bit data with prediction is now read, in layers
and in the merged image. import_fuzz gains a case that mutates the PSD
and PSB samples and opens them with their layers. The PSD reader's new
error messages have rows in every catalog.

vectorcraft-js and Check Script took identifier categories from
unicode-general-category 1.1.0, which carries Unicode 16.0, so letters
and marks assigned in Unicode 17.0 (U+088F at the start of a name,
U+1ACF after its first character) were refused. Both lexers now read
general categories from unicode-properties 0.1.4 (Unicode 17.0), which
Cargo.lock already holds. The version is exact because 0.1.5 adds the
Unicode-3.0 license, which is not on the license allowlist. The
Other_ID_Start, Other_ID_Continue and Pattern_Syntax lists are the same
in PropList 17.0.
The exhaustive identifier test now expects the DerivedCoreProperties
17.0 totals (145,916 ID_Start, 149,240 ID_Continue), and new tests read
U+088F and U+1ACF written out and as escapes in both lexers.
exports_and_fit_all_are_the_same_with_ruler_guides compared PDF exports
byte for byte, but each export carries the time it was written in
/ModDate and the XMP packet. Two exports in different seconds differed,
so the test failed now and then in CI. The test now drops the dated
lines from the PDF before comparing, as undated in the envelope tests
does. SVG, PNG and PSD are still compared whole.
vectorcraft_plugins exports FUEL_SLICE and BYTES_COPIED_PER_FUEL (hidden
from the docs), and the bulk memory fuzz cases use them for the passes
around one slice, the lengths around one unit of fuel and the fuel
estimate, in place of the copied 20,000,000 and 64.
Ruler guides were a list kept beside the layers. Each guide is now an
object of its layer or sublayer, always directly in it and above the
layer's art. These behave as on main:
- Guides draw on screen only. Exports (SVG, PDF, PNG, PSD), Fit All,
Select All, the art bounds, clicks and marquees, and a layer's
Pathfinder and Transform effects leave them out. The Layers panel
lists them as guide rows of their layer, the highest guide.list
index first.
- Deleting a layer deletes its guides, and merging layers keeps their
guides in the merged layer.
- The guide commands number guides as guide.list does, in the order
they were made.
New: each guide takes an id from the document's object ids. An object
command given a guide's id fails with an error, and node.move cannot
put a guide into a group or out of its layers. A guide made while an
opacity mask, a symbol or a pattern is edited moves to the top
visible, unlocked layer when editing ends.
File format: native files still save the guides in the document's
guides list, in every file version, so older builds read them. Each
entry may now also carry the guide's id, name, locked and hidden
flags; older builds ignore those fields. Opening a file puts each
saved guide on its layer (on the top visible, unlocked layer when the
file names none or a layer it does not have), and each saved guide
counts against the object limit for opening a file. A ruler guide node
that a file holds below a layer's art moves up to the layer's guides,
and one anywhere else (in a group or another object, beside the
layers, or in a symbol) is removed. Ruler guides read from an .ai file
become guide objects on the layer they were on, numbered in the order
the file lists them.
