A blend between two strokes drawn with a pressure-sensitive brush gave
every step the pen recording of the nearer key, so the brush jumped at
the middle step. The steps now interpolate the pressure, tilt, bearing
and rotation at every position either key has a sample. A key without a
recording counts as half pressure, half tilt and 0 degrees, as brushes
read it. Angles turn the shorter way round, and steps and whole turns in
a recording stay in the steps. Different brushes still switch halfway.
The font menu opened at its field's width, so from the Control bar's narrow
Character field the filters wrapped one chip per line and family names were
cut off after a few letters.
- The filters keep the same four rows wherever the menu opens: the scripts;
the star, Any Kind, Serif / Mincho, Sans Serif / Gothic and Rounded;
Script / Brush, Monospaced and Decorative; Font Technology with Variable.
- The menu opens at least wide enough for those rows and for a family name
up to 220 points wide with room for its sample, up to 60% of the window,
and stays in the window. A field wider than that keeps its width.
- Where the row has room, the sample starts after the widest name instead of
halfway along the row. It takes the row's whole height instead of 4 points
less, so samples draw larger at every Font Preview Size.

A recorded command whose step passes a limit only from the values it adds
as it runs keeps its edit. The status bar names the limit, later recorded
commands do not run, and Stop Playing/Recording leaves its step out.
file.new refused a side over 163,830 pt, while artboard.new took larger
artboards. Both now take each side more than 0 and at most 3,999,856 pt:
the 4,000,000 pt the canvas reaches from the origin, less a 72 pt bleed
on both sides. A side outside that range is refused with an error that
names the limit in points and, when the document's units are not points,
in those units, rounded down so the value shown is accepted.
artboard.new now refuses a supplied width or height of 0 or less instead
of making a 1 pt side, and refuses a size taken from a larger artboard.
Saved and Recent presets are read with sides up to the new limit.
Follows #6643.
The Width menu now offers Tilt, Bearing and Rotation beside Fixed and
Pressure, each with the second width. Tilt goes from Width with the pen
lying flat to the second width upright; Bearing and Rotation go from
Width at -180 degrees to the second width at 180 degrees, as Scatter
Brush Options' modes do. A stroke drawn without that input is half way
between the two widths. brush.options takes width_mode tilt, bearing
or rotation.
With the Artboard tool chosen, the Align panel's Align Objects,
Distribute Objects and Distribute Spacing buttons, their UI commands and
the Control bar's Align and Distribute buttons act on the artboards the
tool has selected, as the public page describes:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/create-manage-artboards/organize-manage-artboards/align-and-distribute-artboards.html
- artboard.align, artboard.distribute and artboard.distributeSpacing
move whole artboards with their guides, and with the art inside them
when Move Artwork with Artboard is on, in one undo step. No undo step
is recorded when no artboard moves.
- Align To offers Align to Selection and Align to Artboard. Align to
Artboard keeps the active artboard in place, and the Distribute
buttons then send the Distribute Spacing value. A locked artboard
stays where it is. These rules are VectorCraft's own.
- The Control bar shows the Align buttons, the Align To menu and the
Distribute buttons after the artboard controls while it has room.

Gujarati text from a PDF came in jumbled even with its fonts installed:
- A glyph with no advance (a vowel sign or anusvara set over its letter)
was taken for vertical type and opened as an object of its own, which
type then drew on a dotted circle. In a font the file writes
horizontally it now stays on its line.
- A line read glyph by glyph is not always the text that was set: the
file draws a vowel sign before the consonant it follows, and may not
name a conjunct. A line with characters of U+0900 to U+0DFF is now set
again and its glyphs compared with the ink the file drew; when they
differ the line keeps the file's glyphs as outlines, with a note.
Tests: crates/pdf/src/tests/reshaped.rs (two fail without the change).
Preferences > User Interface > UI Scaling sets egui's zoom factor, and the
canvas mapped one document point to one of the interface's points at
100%. A document point then covered UI Scaling times as many device pixels,
so the art grew and shrank with the interface.
The canvas now maps the document at the view's zoom divided by the UI
zoom (View::screen_zoom, Xf::at). The rendered frame, the pointer, rulers,
grids, Fit and Actual Size, pan, scroll, zoom and turn about a point, the
Zoom tool's marquee, Pixel Preview's check, tiled panes, the Navigator's
view box and the tools' tolerances use that mapping. The zoom value means
the same at every UI Scaling, and the interface still follows UI Scaling.
fit_zoom, zoom_about, rotate_about, pan_pixels and scroll_by take the UI
zoom, and Xf::new is now test-only.
Found while looking into a report by bortek about the art's size at 100%.
text.create clamped a size above 1296 pt to 1296 without an error, so a
request for 2835 pt type returned 1296 pt type. text.createInPath,
text.setStyle and text.setRangeStyle clamped the same way. Each now
refuses a size outside 0.1 to 1296 pt with "`size` must be from 0.1 to
1296" and changes nothing. Both ends of the range are still taken.
Follows #6643.
Under automation read roots, a reply replaced only the path inside a
`file:///outside/a.svg` URL, which left `file://a.svg`, a URL that names a
host. The whole URL of an absolute path, with `localhost`, another host or
no host, is now replaced with the file name, unless part of its scheme was
already replaced. A reply key rewritten to read the same as another key of
its object took that key's place and its field was lost; the rewritten key
now takes ` (2)`, ` (3)` and so on, and a key that is not rewritten keeps
its name.
Under automation read roots, a reply shows each path outside the read roots
that the request sent by its file name. A save or export to a path the
client gave inside the write roots then answered with the bare file name in
`path`, where the save replies keep the given path. The `path` and `files`
entries of the reply's result, a `command.batch` step's result included,
that equal a path param the request gave inside the write roots now stay as
given; every other occurrence is still shown by its file name, and loaded
libraries outside the read roots keep their `loaded/<file name>` ids.
- ui.dock's move takes a hidden panel's shown id in target, as the other
docking destinations do.
- Shortcut overrides keyed panel:<panel id>, saved and in an open
Keyboard Shortcuts dialog, show the panel id shown for a library
outside the read roots, also when nothing else refers to it.
- Outside Windows, a native path is matched only as written: a sent
/out/weird/name.svg no longer renames a hidden library at
/out/weird\name.svg, and a reply does not read one as a spelling of the
other. Windows paths are still matched with either separator.
- Outside Windows a `\` stays part of a hidden library's or sent path's
file name; another platform's absolute path is still split on `\`.
- A hidden relative path is matched after leading `./` and `../` parts
only when they start the path, so `/work/./data/icon.svg` keeps its
text.
- `ui.inspect` and `ui.docking` replies are hidden once, so a library
at the top of the file system shows as `loaded/<file name>` with its
separator.
A sent path whose text overlapped part of a hidden library's path could
keep that path from being hidden; the hidden libraries' ids and paths
are now matched first. A hidden relative path is also hidden where a
reply shows the absolute path it reads as from the working folder, and
a hidden library sent by that other form shows as the sent path does.
A library loaded from outside a confined client's read roots keeps its
`loaded/<file name>` id for the session, in ui.inspect, ui.docking and
the library commands, so an id taken from an earlier reply still finds
the same library after another library with the same file name is
loaded. swatch.library.copyToUser leaves out `path` when the file is
outside the read roots, as the saves do.
The ids come from the engine's concealed_library_ids, which now reads a
path written with either separator, counts another platform's absolute
path as outside the roots, and keeps each id in the session.
Outside Windows, a library path that starts with a drive or a backslash counts as outside the read roots, since the file access check would read it as a name in the working folder.
Each hidden id or path is replaced once, chosen from the reply as given,
so a hidden path inside another library's shown id is not replaced
again, and a readable id written with %XX escapes keeps the hidden path
it begins with. A path quoted with {:?} is matched with its quotes and
control characters escaped. A path outside the read roots that the
request sent is shown by its file name in a reply that succeeded as in
one that failed, and a path param counts with a relative path too. A
relative path is not replaced where it ends a longer path. Without a
read root, a file: URL that names another host stays in ui.inspect's
recorded steps.
A hidden id or path stays only where it begins another loaded library's whole id with no `.` or `..` part, also when that id has a space after the hidden part.
- Every request under a read root records the hidden libraries before it
runs, and the reply hides those and the ones hidden after it. A panic
is answered inside the request, so its error is hidden too.
- A hidden path followed by more path text stays only when the longer
text is another loaded library's id with no `.` or `..` part.
- Encoded file data is skipped only for a base64 string under
`dataBase64`, `pngBase64` or `thumbnailBase64`; objects and lists under
those keys, and other keys ending in `Base64`, are searched.
- The error of a failed request hides a path outside the read roots that
the request sent by its file name, so it reads the same whether or not
a library was loaded from that path.
- Paths written with `%XX` escapes are hidden, and on Windows paths in
another letter case.
- Recorded steps in `ui.inspect` leave out `~`, paths under `~` and paths
starting with `./` or `../` outside the read roots under any param.
- Hidden libraries are numbered in load order and keep their id from one
request to the next.
Under the read roots, every control reply now shows a hidden library's
id as loaded/<file name> and its path as the file name in every string
and key: status text, dialogs, the command palette query, a script's
report, recorded steps and errors. The id and path are replaced at any
boundary, so a path between spaces, brackets or quotes, followed by a
period or by more path text (<path>.bak), or quoted with escaped
backslashes is hidden too. An occurrence that continues into a longer
path stays only when the request may read that longer path, so a
readable library's id that begins with a hidden one keeps its text.
The libraries hidden after the request ran are hidden, and for a
request that names one, those hidden before it too. A reply with no
path separator in it is not searched. Encoded file data (dataBase64,
pngBase64) is sent unchanged.
Recorded steps in ui.inspect leave out a path outside the read roots
under path, paths, file, files, folder and any param whose name ends in
Path, Paths, File, Files or Folder (diffPath, fontFiles,
destinationFolder), and an absolute path or file: URL outside the roots
under any other param or in any list. The file: scheme is matched in
any case, a URL's %XX escapes are decoded before the check, a file: URL
inside the roots stays, and a file: URL that
names another host is always left out. file_access::is_path_key holds the list of
path params, and testkit's is_path_key uses it.
Follows #6608. ui.inspect shows a library loaded from outside the read
roots as loaded/<file name>. A request may now name the library or its
panel by that id in a panel, library or panels param, in a docking
destination (anchor, before, onto, above, below) and in
window.panel.layout's action: ui.set {panel} reopens the closed panel
instead of floating a new one. The reply to such a request, an error
included, shows the shown id.
ui.inspect rewrites only whole ids, and only in the fields that hold
library and panel ids, so a readable library's id that begins with a
hidden one keeps its path, and status text, the command palette query
and a script's report keep their text. A hidden library does not take
the id of a library loaded without a path.
ui.inspect also leaves out of recorded action steps the path and folder
params, params named like destinationFolder and the entries of a paths
list that lie outside the read roots, also inside a batch step's
commands. It hides a library id holding a path written with either
separator, and checks a folder preference against the roots as written,
without trimming spaces.
In a gradient or a shaded area the palette colors on either side of a band
border differ by more than the image changes across it, so pixel noise
decided where the border ran, and it was smoothed over 0.5 px like a real
edge: borders wobbled, kept stair steps and took many anchors.
Each crack between two colors now records how much of the step between
them the image makes next to it and a few pixels further out, how much the
image changes there along the line between the two colors and in any
direction, and how much it changes within each side (RGB distances, 0 to
255 a channel). A piece of outline is the contour of a smooth area when its
cracks show less than half of the step; either more of it further out, a
change along the line under 12, or no opaque pixels further out; some change
within the sides, at least 1/32 of the change along the line; and a whole change
under twice the change along the line, or under 24. Such a piece is
smoothed over 4 px (a closed one over at most an eighth of its smaller
width or height), keeps no corners, is fitted to at least 0.5 px and is
checked against its smoothed points. The values are the same from either
side of the crack.
Grayscale reads each pixel as its gray, for this rule and for every edge's
sub-pixel shift, which compared the pixels' colors with gray palette
entries.
Color traces of clean flat-color art and Black and White traces are
unchanged. Specks rise by up to 0.8 per image on gradient and photo
inputs, and Auto Color with Shapes leaves a 0.3 px gap there.

Load Actions refuses an action set file over 8 MiB, with more than 1,000
actions, or with an action of more than 10,000 steps. Several ways of
changing a set could pass those limits, leaving a set that Save Actions
refuses to write.
- While an action records, a command (a batch and Find Objects that
selects included) whose step would give the action more than 10,000
steps or its set's file more than 8 MiB does not run, and the recording
goes on. A stop that playback reaches is left out then. A command whose
step grows past a limit only as it runs keeps its edit; the status bar
names the limit and Stop leaves the step out. Stop also leaves out any
recorded step still past a limit. Steps recorded after an exclusion
past an action's last step are included.
- An exclusion that would make the set's file larger than 8 MiB changes
no checkmark; one that keeps the size or shrinks it always works.
- Begin Recording, New Action, Duplicate, renaming an action, Action
Options, Set Options and New Set refuse a change that would give a set
more than 1,000 actions or a file larger than 8 MiB. A change that
leaves a set no further past a limit than it is now is allowed.
- Load Actions refuses a set, .aia sets included, that Save Actions would
write larger than 8 MiB (a file with less white space, or a set name
that gets a number added).
The limits are the existing ones from files.rs, and the errors reuse the
existing messages. docs/mcp.md and the commands' params text describe the
new errors.
With one object that Start Global Edit accepts selected with the Selection
