The Eyedropper, the Live Paint check for paint to sample, the Appearance
panel's Characters chips and the colors the Libraries panel adds from
the selection found the paint behind the Fill or Stroke proxy through
Node::proxy_paint, which measures the object's geometric bounds. They
now read it with Node::proxy_paint_only.
- Eyedropper: the test for an empty fill reads the paint without
measuring. A sample measures the object only for a gradient or a
pattern, whose color depends on the point; a solid color gives its
color at once.
- Live Paint: the check for paint to sample reads the paint without
measuring.
- Appearance panel: the Characters row's two chips read the paint
without measuring.
- Libraries: adding a color or a pattern from the selection reads the
paint without measuring; a gradient is still measured for its
placement.
The paints and colors are the same as before. On an open path of
200,000 anchors, the Live Paint check and the Eyedropper's sample for a
point inside it take 0.004 ms together instead of 26.0 ms in a release
build.

A library colour kept only its values, so a spot colour came back as a
process colour once its document was closed or in a new one. The library
now keeps a spot colour's ink name and tint (in the .vclibrary file too);
library.use links the paint to the document's spot swatch of that name,
adding it when the document has none of that colour, in one undo step.
A spot swatch dropped on the Libraries panel brings its name and tint.
With no library yet, library.add made and saved "My Library" before it
looked for the group or item to place the new one by, so a bad `group`,
`before` or `after` failed but left an empty library behind. The new
library is now kept only once the item is in it.
Art dragged off the canvas and colours dragged in from elsewhere (swatches, another library's)
used to be added at the end of the ungrouped items, wherever they were dropped. They now land
as items dragged within the list do: on another item of their kind, just before or after it by
the pointer's half and in its group; on a group, into it; away from the items, ungrouped at the
end as before.
library.add takes group and before/after, placed as library.moveItem places an item (the
placement is shared). A library change that fails partway now leaves the library as it was.
