Recent Colors now keeps up to 30 solid colors instead of 10, newest
first and each once; applying a 31st drops the oldest. The Session
holds the list, so it stays the same when another document is opened
or made active, and it lasts for the session.
The Color and Swatches panels wrap the chips onto further rows when
the panel is too narrow for one row, so every color can be clicked.
A list that fits one row draws as before.
Docs: paint.recent params text, docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
As asked in review: the reference app has no such commands, so they ship
in the Color Effects add-on. paint.fillToStroke / paint.strokeToFill are
now addon.color.fillToStroke / addon.color.strokeToFill in
cmd/addons/color.rs, listed in Object > Plug-ins > Color Effects instead
of the Color panel menu, with catalog rows in all 26 catalogs.
Two fixes from CodeRabbit's review:
- A graph's series marks and labels give the graph the copied paint in
the same undo step (capture_series_paints / capture_label_styles, as
paint.setFill does), so drawing the graph again keeps it. Targets go
through graph::paint_targets, so a series group stands for its marks.
- A copy that would leave the effective paint as it is skips the object,
so None copied onto a missing fill or stroke adds no item and records
no undo step.
paint.fillToStroke and paint.strokeToFill copy each target's own top fill onto its top stroke, or the other way, so a mixed selection keeps each object's colour. They aim and undo like Swap Fill and Stroke: groups and compound paths by their members, each text run with its own paint, and only the characters the Type tool has selected. A stroke given paint at width 0 gets 1 pt, skipNone leaves objects whose source paint is None alone, and the defaults for new art change the same way. Both are in the Color panel menu after Invert and Complement.
The enabled check of artboard.deleteEmpty built the full list of empty
artboards, measuring the visual bounds of the art against every
artboard, each time the Artboards panel menu was drawn. It now returns
false at once in a document with one artboard (that artboard is never
deleted). With two or more, it asks the new
Document::any_artboard_without_art whether any unlocked artboard has no
art, which is the same answer as a non-empty list.
Document::any_artboard_without_art builds the symbol boxes once for all
the artboards and first tests each path and compound path by a quick
box: its control points' box grown by the farthest its strokes reach
(Appearance::outset), with a margin for rounding. An artboard that no
quick box meets is reported empty without measuring along any path.
Only when every artboard may hold art is each one measured.
Document::artboard_has_art also skips measuring an object whose quick
box misses the artboard; its answers are unchanged.
The check of gradient.presets.save found the proxy paints through
Node::proxy_paint, which measures the object's geometric bounds for a
gradient box the check does not use. Node::proxy_paint_only picks the
same paint without measuring, and the engine's proxy_paint uses it, so
the Fill and Stroke proxies and the mixed-paint test no longer measure
each object either.
With an open stroked path of 200,000 anchors selected, the two checks
take under 0.01 ms instead of 21.9 ms and 17.2 ms in a release build, and
Delete Empty Artboards' check takes 0.85 ms instead of 42.1 ms with a
second, empty artboard.
Tests compare each check with what its command does (one artboard, all
empty, one empty, locked empty, nested art; with and without a
gradient), compare any_empty_artboards with the previous check and with
measuring every object on 120 seeded documents, compare the quick boxes
with the visual bounds on seeded strokes, and compare proxy_paint_only
with proxy_paint on seeded objects.

While the Type tool edits a frame of threaded text, Select All selects
the text of every frame of the story, highlighted in each frame. The
tool edits the first frame that holds text.
- Typing, Delete and Cut replace the whole story as one undo step
(`text.editRange` takes `clear`, the other frames whose text goes).
- Copy and Cut take the whole story (`text.getRange {id, story: true}`).
- Fills and strokes, `type.step`, `appearance.copyFrom`, the Character,
Paragraph, OpenType and text style panels, the Tabs panel's tab
stops, the font menus and the Justification dialog act on every
frame's text (`text.setRangeStyle {id, story: true}` styles them in
one edit).
- A caret move, a click or a word or paragraph selection ends it.
Select All in unthreaded type is unchanged.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
paint.invert and paint.complement on the Fill proxy, the Edit Colors
commands, the Blend commands and recolor.apply now recolor the color
that colorizes a grayscale or 1-bit image, as one undo step with the
other targets. Before, they left it unchanged. Expand Appearance and
Object > Expand bake color adjustment effects into that color too.
- A colorized image's pixels are not recolored; they stay the gray
coverage of its color. A stroke-only pass reaches the image's stroke
items and leaves its colorize color unchanged.
- A command that would leave a process color on a grayscale image with
an alpha channel fails with the existing message and changes nothing.
Object > Expand undoes its earlier steps when that happens.
- A colorized image counts as a filled object in a blend.
With several objects selected whose appearances differ in anything (two
circles whose fills differ but whose stroke and effect are the same),
the Appearance panel showed only "Mixed Appearances": no stroke, effect
or opacity row, so attributes the objects share couldn't be edited
together. It now lists what they share, as the issue describes:
- `vectorcraft_doc::appearance::SharedStack` (with `align`, a stacking-
order longest-common-subsequence match) gives the fills, strokes and
object-level effects every object has an equal copy of, and where each
is in every object's own stack.
- The panel's object row names the objects' common kind ("Path",
"Ellipse"; "Mixed Objects" only when kinds differ, as the Control bar
does), with an italic "Mixed Appearances" row under it when they
differ, then only the shared rows with their usual controls. The
Opacity row reads "Mixed" when opacity or blend mode differ (an edit
sets them all). The object row shows no fill chip when the fills
differ. Rows aren't dragged in a mixed selection: where a row would go
in each of several different stacks isn't one place.
- The engine maps a shared row to each object's own item: the active
item (a row of the first selected object's stack) always does, so the
Color, Stroke and Transparency panels edit every object's matching
item, and the item and effect commands do with `aligned: true`
(appearance.setItem / removeItem / duplicateItem, effect.remove /
duplicate / setParams / lightingPreset, transparency.set), each as
one undo step. moveItem and effect.move refuse aligned rows of
differing stacks. Without `aligned`, explicit indices keep their
meaning for single objects and scripts.
- "Mixed" is added to every catalog.
Tests: the shared stack of the issue's case, of a stroke at another
index, of nothing alike and of equal stacks, and that matches never
cross; editing the shared stroke edits both strokes (at index 1 and 2)
in one undo step that restores both, also through stroke.set on the
active row; removing a shared effect and adding a fill reach both, and
reordering differing stacks is refused; the panel lists kind, note,
Stroke, Feather and Opacity, not Fill, the full stack for alike objects
and "Mixed Objects" for a path and type. The existing object-row test
now expects the kind for two rectangles and the shared rows when their
opacity differs.
With nothing selected and no ids, set_paint changes only the paint for
new art, but its reply was the same as when it painted objects, so a
caller could not tell that no object changed.
paint.setFill, paint.setStroke, paint.none, paint.lastColor,
paint.lastGradient and stroke.set now reply {objects}: how many objects
took the paint, as the commands resolve their targets (a selected group
counts the objects inside it). set_paint adds the largest of those
counts to its reply as `objects`, and when it is 0 a `note` says that
only the paint for new art changed. The tool description and the
set_paint row in docs/mcp.md describe the reply.
Illustrator 30.0's Method choice in the Gradient panel
(https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/paint-and-fill/create-and-edit-gradients/control-perceptual-interpolation-in-gradients.html).
- paint.editGradient takes `method: classic|perceptual` (one undo step);
paint.setFill/setStroke take it in `gradient`, and gradient params (swatches,
copied paints) carry it when Perceptual. Anything else is refused without
editing. One edit can set `method` and `dither` together.
- The Gradient panel shows a Method menu (Classic, Perceptual) for linear and
radial gradients, dimmed without a gradient; the Dither box stays under the
stops.
- i18n: "Perceptual" where a complete catalog lacked it, and the `method`
error in all 24 catalogs.
- Docs: G13 (estimate 14–24 h → 13–23 h, after Dither's 15–25 h → 14–24 h),
target-app-parity (row and evidence), ui-parity, mcp.md, plugins.md.
Review follow-up (CodeRabbit): the refusal skipped any request carrying a
`swatch` key, so `"swatch": null` with a dithered gradient got through.
Only a named swatch (a gradient swatch keeps its own dither) is exempt now.
The dither test sends `"swatch": null`; it fails without the change.
Review follow-up (CodeRabbit): paint.setStroke kept `dither: true` from its
gradient, and a stroke can hold dither anyway (swapped from a fill). Outline
Stroke and appearance expansion copied the stroke's paint into the outline's
fill, which then drew dithered although the stroke never did. The outline's
fill now goes without dither (Paint::stroke_as_fill), and paint.setStroke
refuses a gradient with `dither: true`, as paint.editGradient does.
Illustrator 30.0's gradient Dither, from the public documentation
(https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/paint-and-fill/create-and-edit-gradients/control-dither-in-gradients.html):
a Dither checkbox in the Gradient panel; dither converts the gradient into
pixels with subtle noise, works with gradient fills only, and follows the
Document Raster Effects resolution.
- Gradient gains `dither` (serde default false, written only when on, so
older files open unchanged and new files keep it).
- The renderer draws a dithered linear or radial fill as an image paint: the
gradient sampled a cell per device pixel or finer (quarter-octave steps,
cached per thread), each channel given seeded triangular noise of up to a
level before rounding. Same pixels every run; strokes and undithered fills
draw exactly as before. PNG and other raster exports go through it.
- SVG and PDF write a dithered fill as an image at the document's raster
effects resolution, clipped to the shape (the freeform-gradient path);
characters' fills stay vector gradients in SVG, with a warning.
- paint.editGradient and paint.setFill take `dither`; strokes refuse it.
The Gradient panel's Dither box is dimmed behind the Stroke proxy.
- i18n rows in all 24 catalogs; docs: G13, target-app-parity, ui-parity,
mcp.md, plugins.md.
object.transformEach refused reflectX, reflectY, random and copy given
as text, but read strokes, corners, objects and patterns given as text
as the key left out. With Scale Strokes & Effects on,
{"scaleH": 200, "scaleV": 200, "strokes": "false"} scaled the stroke,
recorded an undo step and kept the params for Transform Again, which
repeated the call. artboard.rearrange, artboard.move and
artboard.duplicate read their patterns option the same way, and
artboard.setProps reads its patterns, strokes and corners options the
same way.
These commands now refuse such a value with "`<key>` must be true or
false" before they change anything. So do the other options and
numbers of artboard.setProps and artboard.move, the art of Duplicate,
Copy and Cut Artboard, the shape commands and path.create, path.close,
path.setHandle, path.moveAnchors, the Pencil, Curvature, Reshape
Segment and Blob Brush options, text.create, text.createInPath,
text.setRangeStyle, text.editRange, text.getRange, text.touchType,
text.areaOptions, type.step, the font size steps,
type.opticalMarginAlignment, type.systemLayout, type.fractionalWidths,
type.ruby, the symbol and swatch commands, the Appearance panel's
commands, the gradient and freeform gradient commands, Shape Builder,
Live Paint, Image Trace, the opacity of object.setProps, the radius,
sides and relativeRadii of object.setLiveShape, the reference point of
object.setBounds and the artboard of Align, Distribute and Distribute
Spacing. They refuse a number given as text with "`<key>` must be a
number, not <value>", and a gradient stop's tint with "stop <n>:
`tint` must be a number". A null still reads as the key left out.

Object > Expand and Object > Create Gradient Mesh mixed a freeform
gradient's points in display RGB and turned the result back into the
points' model with the profile-free formula. CMYK inks changed: points
of C50 M20 Y0 K10 gave mesh points of C45 M24 Y0 K22. RGB points were
stored as display sRGB, so with a working RGB space other than sRGB
the mesh showed other colors. Points colored along CMYK stops, a point
paint.freeform.splitLine added between CMYK points and a point
paint.freeform.addPoint added without a color came out as RGB.
Points that share a color model now mix in it: the C, M, Y and K
values mix as inks, and Gray, RGB and Lab components mix as they are.
Points in different models still mix in display RGB. Object > Expand
and Object > Create Gradient Mesh store the result in the working RGB
space, and in a CMYK document they store it as CMYK through the color
settings, as paint.setFill stores an RGB color. Freeform::recolor and
split_line mix with the new Color::lerp_keep_model, which
vectorcraft_doc::blend::lerp_color now calls.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
In a CMYK document, paint.setFill stores an RGB color as CMYK through
the color settings, but the other commands that take a color stored it
as RGB: text.create, text.createInPath, text.setStyle and
text.setRangeStyle colors, a shapeBuilder.merge hex fill,
paint.editGradient stops, freeform gradient points, gradient mesh
points, the Symbol Stainer's color, and swatch.new {colors},
swatch.newGroup, swatch.editGroup and swatch.edit. The Mesh tool sent
the fill as a hex value, so a CMYK fill came in as RGB.
These commands now store such a color through paint::new_color, as
paint.setFill does, and take keepModel to keep RGB (shapeBuilder.merge
inside its fill object). A color the swatch
or gradient already has keeps its model, so stops sent back with a
moved offset keep their colors (the Gradient panel's ramp and the
Gradient tool send keepModel), and a stop that names a process
swatch takes the swatch's color as it is, in paint.setFill gradients
too. Where the app copies an existing color, it keeps the color's
model: the Color panel's sliders for gradient stops and freeform
points, a swatch put on a stop or a point (the stop popover, Alt-click
in the Swatches panel, a drop on the Gradient panel's ramp), the fill
the Mesh tool gives a new point or the Symbol Stainer applies, and the
colors the Color Guide, Color Themes and Recolor Artwork save as
swatches.
swatch.new {color, mode} converted RGB into CMYK before converting it
into mode, so the New Swatch dialog in RGB mode stored #00ff00 as
R101 G176 B62 in a CMYK document. With mode, the color is now
converted once.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
In a CMYK document, an RGB color from the Eyedropper, a hex value or
paint.setFill was stored as CMYK by the profile-free formula
(k = 1 - max(r, g, b)), not through the color settings. RGB 83/170/223
came in as C63 M24 Y0 K13. A CMYK image was sampled through the RGB its
decoder shows, so its inks came back only when the formula happened to
round-trip them.
paint_from now converts an RGB color into a CMYK document with
Cms::convert and the settings' intent, as Document Color Mode and Swatch
Options already do. This covers paint.setFill and paint.setStroke,
gradient stops, swatch.new {color} and the Eyedropper. With Generic CMYK,
83/170/223 now separates to C59 M12 Y3 K0, and #ff0000 now separates to
C0 M97 Y100 K0 instead of C0 M100 Y100 K0. keepModel: true still keeps
RGB. paint.sampleColor with a stop stores the color the same way.
The Eyedropper samples a CMYK image's ink amounts (a four-component
JPEG, or an 8- or 16-bit chunky CMYK TIFF) and returns them unchanged
(ImageBlob::sample_cmyk_object), also in an RGB document. It takes an
RGB image's sRGB pixel into the working RGB space, as the screen color
sampler does, so the picked color shows as the pixel when the working
space is not sRGB.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
A gradient given to several objects fits each one's own bounds. With
span: "selection", a linear or radial gradient without its own vector is
placed once on the union of the targets' bounds, at its angle and aspect,
and every target gets that vector in document coordinates, so the ramp
runs on across them. A solid colour, a swatch, a freeform gradient or an
explicit start/end with it is refused before anything changes; the next
object drawn still fits the gradient to itself.
These commands edited the document even when nothing changed, so the
call recorded an undo step, emptied Redo and marked the document
modified:
- Fill, Stroke, None, Apply Last Color and Apply Last Gradient with the
paint the objects have already, also on characters selected with the
Type tool.
- stroke.set and stroke.setAdvanced with the options the strokes have
already.
- paint.editGradient, paint.setGradientGeom and the freeform point
commands when the gradient comes out as it was.
- Invert and Complement on the Appearance panel's selected row when no
color changes.
- Swap Fill and Stroke and Default Fill and Stroke when every object
comes out as it was.
- appearance.setItem with the values the item has or an index no
object has, and transparency.set with an item and the values that
item has; appearance.removeItem with indices past every stack;
appearance.moveItem, Reduce to Basic Appearance, Clear Appearance,
the Eyedropper (appearance.copyFrom) and appearance.transfer when
every object comes out as it was.
These commands now return without editing the document. The replies
have the same form as before. On a graph's series or labels, a fill or
stroke that the art has already still records one undo step when the
graph does not keep that paint for them (for example after the
Eyedropper painted the art), and the graph then keeps it.
The Eyedropper test whose second copy changed nothing gives its target
a green fill first, which the copy turns red again.
One line in the evidence list of docs/target-app-parity.md names these
commands, apart from Invert and Complement.
Text formatted in a graph, as
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/visualize-data/format-the-text-in-graphs.html
describes (the whole graph with the Selection tool, or labels picked
with Group Selection, through the Character and Appearance controls),
now survives the graph being drawn again from its data.
- A graph keeps a character style per kind of label: value axis
numbers, category labels (category axis, radar spokes, pie names)
and legend labels (beside or across the top, or in wedges).
- text.setStyle, text.setFormat and fill/stroke changes on a graph's
labels apply the same change to their kind's kept style, so only what
the user changed is kept and every label of that kind follows. A
change to part of a label's text isn't kept.
- Labels are told apart by where the graph draws them, not by their
text, so a category named "2" and the value axis' 2 stay apart.
- Label spacing follows a kept size (legend rows, offsets from the axes
and wedges), so bigger labels don't overlap; at 9 pt it's as before.
Wedge labels stay white on dark wedges unless given a colour.
- A kept style from a file is held to the Character controls' limits.
Own choice, as the page doesn't say what happens on a data change:
formatting one label formats its whole kind, since the labels are drawn
again from the data. Other ways of restyling text (eyedropper,
character styles, Find Font) aren't kept yet. New fields are written
only when set; graphs without kept formatting draw the same art as
before.
Every edit of an object copied its whole appearance (its fills, strokes and effects, about
540 bytes for a basic object) into the new node, though a move leaves it as it is. Over 45
whole-selection moves of 10,000 paths, undo history grew by 589 MB; now 349 MB (41 % less), and
a nudge or a drag of the selection takes 12 ms instead of 15.
- Node::appearance is a vectorcraft_doc::Shared<Appearance>: copy-on-write. A clone shares it,
and the first change through DerefMut copies it (Arc::make_mut). Reads, writes, equality (also
against a plain Appearance) and the saved form are those of the Appearance itself, so call
sites read and change it as before. Sites that build or assign a whole appearance add .into(),
and the few that need a plain copy take (*n.appearance).clone().
- Node::transform changes the appearance only when it has gradients to transform, and pattern
paints are transformed only when there are some: a move no longer copies an appearance it
doesn't change.
The workspace suite (5,301 tests) and clippy pass with the change; the doc and engine suites
pass again after the transform guard.

Choosing a fill or stroke (Color panel, Swatches, the proxies) while the
Type tool had a few characters selected painted every run of the type
object. As in Illustrator, it now goes to the selected characters only:
the runs are split at the selection's ends and the paint is placed on
the runs in between, as one undo step; a stroke gets a 1 pt weight
where it had none. With only a caret, or with explicit ids or an item,
paint.setFill/setStroke behave as before.

Group Selection's fill and stroke on a graph series are kept on the graph,
separately per series, and reapplied when its data, type or size changes,
and through save, open and undo.
Radial gradients show a dashed extent ellipse: its handle across the bar
sets the aspect ratio, the ellipse elsewhere rotates it, and the dot inside
the centre ring drags the focal point (GradientGeom.focal) for an off-centre
radial. paint.setGradientGeom takes aspect (%) and focal ([x,y] | null), and
start/end may be left out; the focal point keeps its place in the ellipse as
the vector, aspect and object transform. It renders as a two-point radial,
exports and imports as SVG fx/fy and PDF two-point radial shadings, expands
to off-centre rings, and travels in gradient params and the native format.

With nothing selected, Stroke panel edits (stroke.set / stroke.setAdvanced: cap, join, dashes,
arrowheads, profile...) and a graphic style clicked in the Graphic Styles panel
(graphicStyle.apply, add too) set up the next object drawn: its stroke options, fills, strokes,
effects, opacity and blend mode, linked to the style. The Appearance panel's New Art Has Basic
Appearance (appearance.setNewArtBasic, preference newArtBasic, on by default) now works: off,
new art takes the whole appearance of the last selection. paint.default resets the template,
appearance.newArt reports it, and with nothing selected the Stroke panel shows its stroke and
the Appearance panel its rows. PaintDefaults gains the template appearance, opacity, blend
mode and style.

Colours gain a CIE Lab model (`Color::Lab {l,a,b}`, serde tag `lab`), handled through the
CMS (display, separation, conversions, gamut), tints (toward paper white), keep_model, harmonies,
recolouring, blends, Info and the Color panel. Swatch Options gets a Lab mode
(`swatch.edit {mode: "lab"}` / `{color: {l,a,b}}`), and colour params accept `{l,a,b}`.
Swatches panel → Spot Colors… (`ui.spotColors`, dialog `spotColors`) runs `swatch.spotOptions
{useLab}` (Document.spot_use_lab, default on): Lab spot colours show and separate from their Lab
values, or art linked to them takes their working-CMYK equivalents, as one undo step. PDF export
writes Lab spot inks as Separation spaces with a Lab alternate (tint function from paper white),
or a DeviceCMYK one with CMYK equivalents.

[Registration] is a built-in swatch that prints 100% on every plate: Separations
Preview shows it on each process and spot plate and PDF export writes it as
/Separation /All. It can't be edited, moved, duplicated, merged or deleted;
swatch.list shows it after None and the Swatches panel applies it as a swatch.
Object > Create Trim Marks strokes the marks in Registration and marks every
artboard when nothing is selected ({style?, allArtboards?}). The preference
japaneseCropMarks (General) switches to Japanese marks: double lines at the
trim and bleed edges plus centre marks. Effect > Crop Marks (cropMarks) is a
live effect whose marks follow the object; rendering, SVG/PDF export and
Expand Appearance draw them. The mark geometry lives in doc::marks.

Applying a gradient swatch records it as the gradient's swatch (the Swatches panel highlights
it and the Gradient panel's swatch menu marks it). A stop given a global or spot swatch (and a
tint) in paint.editGradient / a gradient paint's stops, dropped from the Swatches panel or
picked in the stop popover stays linked: editing the swatch recolours it, in art and in
gradient swatches, deleting it unlinks it. Spot stops separate on their plate, and a gradient
whose stops are all tints of one spot ink (or paper white) exports to PDF as a Separation
shading; gradients mixing models are written in one colour space (the PDF writer requires it;
mixed models used to abort the export).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A colour linked to a global or spot swatch keeps a tint (Paint::Solid.tint, 1 by default and
left out of files at 100 %): paint.setFill/setStroke {swatch, tint} apply the swatch at that
percentage, swatch edits recolour every linked colour at its own tint, and Color::tinted
resolves it (CMYK and Gray inks scale, RGB mixes toward white). swatch.new saves a tint as a
tint swatch ("Ink 40%") linked to its base. Spot tints separate as that percentage of their
plate (Separations Preview, PDF Separation value) instead of an ink-ratio guess. Adjust Color
Balance's Global mode (tint) shifts the tints of linked colours. The Color panel shows Tint
mode (the swatch chip, its name and a T slider) for linked colours; the Swatches panel
highlights the tint swatch in use. Gradient stops get the same link and tint fields (the
swatch walks cover them), so GradientStop is no longer Copy.

Clicking a Layers panel target circle runs `layer.target {id}`: a layer gets its art
selected and becomes the target (`Selection.target`) of the appearance, effect,
transparency and opacity-mask commands, which then edit the layer itself; the
Appearance panel lists it. Dragging a circle onto another runs
`appearance.transfer {source, target, copy?}` (Alt copies), dropping it on the trash
clears it. Filled dots also mark groups and layers with fills of their own, masked
objects get a dashed underline, and while an opacity mask is edited the panel lists
only an `<Opacity Mask>` entry and the tab says so.
