addon.color.swatchLegend replaces swatch.legend. The dialog sets columns, chip size, gap, the values shown
and whether to use only the swatches selected in the Swatches panel, with a preview; duplicate value
kinds are refused. The Swatches panel menu item is removed. Catalog rows in all 26 languages.
swatch.legend draws a grid of chips, one per colour swatch (the given
ones, else every one), each filled with and linked to its swatch and
labelled with its name and colour values (HEX, RGB, CMYK, Lab or
Grayscale; by default its own model; spot swatches marked), black on
light chips and white on dark ones, as one selected group in one undo
step. The Swatches panel menu's Create Swatch Legend draws the selected
colour swatches, else every one.
Window > Arrange > Tile (window.arrange.tile) splits the document area
into one pane per open document, edge to edge, in a grid with as many
columns as the square root of the number of documents, rounded up. Each
document is fitted to its pane, and fitted again when its pane changes
size (a document opened or closed, the window resized) unless it was
zoomed or scrolled since. The current document's pane is the canvas;
the other panes draw their documents with their artboards, guides,
selected objects and Pixel Preview, and a press in one makes its
document the current one, as a click on its tab does. Window > Arrange >
Consolidate All Windows (window.arrange.consolidateAllWindows) goes back
to one document under its tab. It works the same on the desktop and the
web, and the arrangement is not saved.
Tile is enabled with two or more open documents, and Consolidate All
Windows while documents are tiled. ui.inspect reports tiled and the
panes.
With Real-time Drawing and Editing off, a drag drew one outline per selected
object with no limit, so a selection with hundreds of thousands of points
built the overlay mesh that the canvas's 100,000-point limit keeps it from
drawing at rest (#525, #2460). Past the same number of points the drag now
draws the moved selection's bounds, as the canvas does for the selection at
rest.
With Preferences › Performance › Real-time Drawing and Editing off, a
Selection tool move drag leaves the object in place until release, and
the bounding box was hidden for the whole drag. The box, with its
handles, now follows the pointer during the drag (Session::deferred_move
gives the offset the document has not taken yet). Scale and rotate
drags, and drags with Real-time Drawing on, hide the box as before.

Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts listed commands whose params are all optional
but that do nothing or fail when a key runs them with none, such as
Transparency (transparency.set) and Opacity Mask Options
(transparency.setOpacityMask). These are now left out while they have
no shortcut, along with Align and Distribute, Delete Swatch, Move
Swatch, Spot Options, Adjust Color Balance, the library and data set
loaders, stroke.set, layer.setProps and menu queries that no menu item
runs. A key saved for one of them before keeps it listed so it can be
cleared.
A shortcut for a command whose menu bar items all give it the same
params now runs what a click on that item runs, so Clean Up..., Print
Ink Fixes... and Find and Replace... open their dialogs.
Exports warn about type in a symbol's art that is set in a missing
font and point to Find Font, but Find Font and Replace Missing Fonts
only looked at the type on the layers.
- text.fonts lists the fonts of the type in the document's symbols too;
with selectionOnly, of the symbols the selected instances show.
- select.font (Find) also selects the instances of the symbols whose
art uses the font in type that is not hidden or locked.
- text.replaceFont changes that type in the symbols in scope, so every
instance follows. Type hidden or locked in a symbol's art, and the
type of symbols that only a selected hidden or locked instance shows,
keeps its font and is counted in skipped.
- addon.cleanup.replaceFonts replaces missing fonts in symbols' type.
While a symbol is edited, its type is taken from the editing layer
only, so it is counted and changed once.
A manual kerning value on a character in right-to-left text changed the
space between it and the character before it in reading order, under
both Auto and Optical kerning. The shaped glyphs of a right-to-left
cluster now also move right by the value, so the space its advance
gains is at its left, between it and the next character in reading
order. Left-to-right text and tracking are unchanged.
Optical kerning no longer takes the left glyph's manual value off the
advance it measures, since right to left the value is in that glyph's
offset as well.
Action Options… opens the New Set and Set Options dialog, headed Action
Options, with the selected action's name; OK renames the action and keeps
its steps. The new command ui.action.rename {set, action, name} does the
rename and refuses an index past the last set or action or an empty name.
Part of #1629.
The Actions panel did not save which set was current, so after a restart
Begin Recording put the new action into the first set (Default Actions)
instead of the set the user had picked. The current set is now saved
with the UI preferences as an index into the saved sets; a value that is
not an index, or is past the last set, leaves no set current.
With no set current, Begin Recording records into the first set as
before, and now makes that set current so the panel shows where the
recording goes.
A graph in a legacy .ai, or in a current file's editing data, is written
as `%_Gs`, its data and settings on `%_` lines, its drawn art in a group
with a `%_... Go` tag after each object, and `%_GS`. The reader stopped
on the graph operators as ones it doesn't know, so such a file did not
open through its layers.
The reader now leaves the graph's records out with their operands and
reads the drawn art as usual: the bars, lines and labels come in as the
groups, paths and type they are written as. Paint operators on `%_`
lines between `Gt` and `GT` set nothing. One note per file says the
graphs came in as plain art without their data or settings. A graph
that starts inside another, or doesn't end before its layer does, keeps
the art read so far with a second note. Graph operators outside a graph
stay unknown.
In editing data and legacy .ai files, a lower-case l, c, v or y makes the
anchor the segment ends on smooth and an upper-case L, C, V or Y makes it a
corner. The reader used to guess each anchor's kind from whether its
handles are in line, so a lower-case l always read as a corner and an
upper-case C with handles in line read as smooth. A closed path's first
anchor takes the case of the segment back to it. Points and handles do not
move. Paths, compound paths, clipping paths, guide paths, area type frames
and type-on-a-path paths all keep the kinds.
Add the progress line for the symbol editing follow-ups next to the Symbol
editing mode entry in docs/target-app-parity.md, with the tests that cover
them.
symbol.edit checks the new placement before it ends the symbol being edited, so a call with an out-of-range x or y fails and leaves the current edit open. While a symbol is edited, object.isolate refuses art outside the editing layer, and object.exitIsolation goes back to the editing layer only from a group inside it; from any other isolation it leaves symbol editing mode.
Headless tests cover a double-click on a symbol in Thumbnail View and List View, the panel
menu's Edit Symbol with and without a selected instance, the Control bar's Edit Symbol button,
and the Control bar's Exit Symbol Editing Mode and Exit Isolation Mode buttons inside the
symbol's art. The panel's module comment now says a double-click opens the symbol in symbol
editing mode, and docs/mcp.md lists symbol.edit's ids parameter.
Horizontal Scale and Vertical Scale accept any number above 0 and at most 4000000 %, and Baseline Shift accepts -4000000 to 4000000 pt, the limits the document model keeps a character style in. Character Rotation is stored from -180 to 180 degrees, as text.setFormat stores it. A scale outside its limit shows the new message "{label} must be a number above 0 and at most {max}", translated in every catalog that has Basic Character Formats.
Character Style Options and New Character Style get an Advanced
Character Formats section with Horizontal Scale, Vertical Scale,
Baseline Shift, Character Rotation and Language. Empty fields stay
unset, an explicit 100%, 0 degrees or English: USA stays distinct from
unset, and Reset Panel on the section clears only these five. Scales
take 1% to 10000% and baseline shift -1296 pt to 1296 pt, as
text.setRangeStyle does; rotation is stored from -180 to 180 degrees.
Language sets the language the characters are shaped in; hyphenation
and spelling do not change.
A field still as it opened keeps its stored value without the range
check, so a style captured from a scaled type object can be renamed.
The same applies to Basic's Size and Leading minimum.
charStyle.edit keeps a language tag that is not in the list when the
style already has it, so a style read from a file with such a tag can
be edited.
The OpenType panel gets a Position menu after Figure, with Default
Position, Superscript, Subscript, Numerator and Denominator. `numr` and
`dnom` join the extra features (the existing bits keep their indices),
so they round-trip through the stored tags and reach the shaper.
text.setStyle and text.setRangeStyle take `featureChanges`, which turns
features on or off on top of each character's own features in one
command and keeps every tag the list does not name. The Figure menu,
the Position menu and the checkboxes send it, so on a selection whose
characters have different features each character keeps its other
features. Reset OpenType Features still sends `features`.
Catalog rows for Position:, Default Position, Numerator and
Denominator; one line each in docs/type-parity.md and
docs/target-app-parity.md.
With one Objects on Path group selected, the Selection and Objects on
Path tools show a round handle beyond the top of the group's first
object, joined by a line to its attachment point. Dragging it adds the
angle the pointer turns about that point to the group's Rotate, previewed
while dragging and kept as one undo step on release
(object.objectsOnPath.options). Shift turns in 15 degree steps, Escape
cancels the drag, and the pointer shows the rotate cursor over the
handle.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md, docs/mcp.md.
Area type made from the editing data's text document came in with one
row, one column, the 18 pt gutter and the Ascent first baseline,
whatever its frame kept. Each area frame now keeps its rows and columns,
the gutter between rows and the gutter between columns, and its first
baseline (Fixed, Cap Height, Leading or x Height) with its minimum,
scaled with the art's units. Each frame of a thread keeps its own, and a
key that is missing or can't be read leaves that option as it was. A
first baseline the frame keeps is no longer replaced by the fixed one
that matches the file's first line.
AreaOptions gets row_gutter (rowGutter, left out while unset), which
layout spaces rows by; text.areaOptions takes and reports rowGutter, a
gutter given alone sets both, and the Area Type Options dialog shows
Row Gutter.
Every graphic in a version 7 wraparound group (`*w` … `*W`), before
or after its type, is now a wrap object with an offset of 0 instead of
the 6 pt default, and a group with no type in it marks all of its
graphics. A graphic before the type is below it, so the type flows
around it only after it is moved above. Operands on `*w` or `*W`, and
a `*w` inside a compound path, are errors.
Docs: docs/file-format-parity.md.
Fixes#2763. An object whose editing-data dictionary holds the text wrap
options keeps them (offset in points, 6 pt by default, clamped to
±1000 pt; Invert Wrap), and the objects after the text in a version 7
wraparound group (`*w` … `*W`) are wrap objects at the default options.
Area type below a wrap object in its layer flows around it before the
layers are compared with the page, and threaded type flows on into its
next frames. A Large Canvas file's offset is scaled with its art.
The wrap resolver moves into `vectorcraft_doc::text::resolve_wrap` for
the import and the edit-time refresh, and builds each wrap object's
outline once per layer. A file whose wrap shapes would copy more than
2,000,000 anchors is not read from its editing data.
