The canvas clips a clip group by its clipping path with the path's live
geometry effects applied, but clicks, hovers and marquees still tested
the plain clipping path. A click where a Transform effect had moved the
clip selected nothing, and a click on the clipping path's own place
selected art that was not drawn there.
- The engine registers the effect-shaped region with the doc crate
(`hit::set_clip_region`), as it does for image paint and live art. It
gives a region only when the clipping path holds a visible geometry
effect; otherwise clicks keep the plain shapes, and type keeps
counting by its frame.
- Clicks, `objects_at`, the hidden art of a selected object, the Unlock
submenu's list and marquees inside a clip group or a clipping layer
use that region. Outline view and layers with Preview off draw no
effects and keep the plain shapes; the Selection, Direct Selection
and Enclosing Lasso marquees pass the view's outline state
(`hit::marquee_in_view`). Each container around a selected object
tests its clipping path in the outline state a click has there.
- A marquee touches the clipping path itself by its own geometry, as a
click on its outline finds it, and also on the edge of the region, so
a marquee around a clipping path that an effect moved into large art
still selects it. `hit::marquee_in` keeps the plain shapes for the
Color Theme Picker, which clips by them.
- The region is kept per thread until the clipping path or the live
inputs change. A clip group's reach takes in the region's box, so
culling does not skip art the region moved past the plain clipping
path. Up to 4096 boxes are kept; when they are full, a new box
replaces only as many others as it needs room for.

A freeform gradient's image was sampled, encoded and written inline at
every fill, outside the reuse placed images have. Fields now go through
the same codes and placements: a fill whose encoded image (color setup,
image dictionary, filter, operator and samples) matches one already
kept draws from it, so its samples are written once in the setup as
VCim<i>. A field drawn once is still written where it is drawn.
A fill whose placement can't be drawn, or that arrives when the page is
already at the 256 MB limit, is no longer sampled first, and a field
image taken back with art that passed the limit is forgotten.
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.
