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 file read as HP-GL by its extension that holds only instructions of
another set (`GC5;`) is now refused as "not an HP-GL file" instead of
opening as an empty plot. At least one of the instructions the check
reads must be one the reader knows.
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.

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.
