A spot-colored fill or stroke whose opacity is 0 prints no ink, but
Spot Color Objects still listed its object and objects.spots counted
it. Such fills and strokes are now left out; an object stays listed
while another of its fills or strokes prints the spot color. Pattern
Objects and Gradient Objects are unchanged.
With automation read roots in force, document.json returned each entry of
svg_scripts unchanged, so a JavaScript file linked from outside the read
roots kept its full path in the reply. The reply copy now names such a
file by its file name alone. An entry given as a URL is kept, and the
stored document is not changed.
- object.expand.info reports no gradient or fill to expand for a
gradient that repeats in more runs across its box than are written,
matching object.expand, which leaves it a gradient. For a path that a
painting live effect draws, it measures each piece the effect returns.
- CSS writes a repeating gradient's stop positions, and a repeating
radial gradient's radius, with enough decimals that their rounding
adds up to at most a hundredth of a period across the box (at least
four for positions and three for the radius).
- docs/mcp.md says that sharp steps and swatch-linked stops are the last
to be left out rather than always kept, and that the CSS conic limit
counts stops before midpoints and Perceptual curves add more.
Color Mask checked the whole document for a grayscale image colorized
with a process color only when the document passed that check before
the run. With another such image already in the document, the check
was skipped, and a process-colorized gray image could take masked
pixels with transparency.
Each image whose mask changes is now checked on the pixels the new mask
shows, made from the image's own pixels, so an image elsewhere in the
document no longer affects the result. A mask that hides nothing keeps
the image's own pixels and is still set. When new pixels replace a
masked gray image's own pixels under a process color, the mask made for
them hides nothing, and Apply Color Mask refuses them. The check shares
its colorize predicate with paint's check_colorized.
A stroke at an opacity of 0 draws nothing, so its brush is no longer
listed in the Brushes category, brushNames or brushes. Pattern Objects,
Gradient Objects and Spot Color Objects likewise leave out fills and
strokes at an opacity of 0, and Objects no longer counts objects whose
only such paint is at opacity 0.
A reply hid a hidden library's absolute path wherever it appeared, also
inside another loaded library's id when the match began after the id's
start. With `/libs/Kit.gpl` hidden, the readable id
`loaded//project/libs/Kit.gpl` came back as `loaded//projectKit.gpl`,
and a request that used it failed.
Each whole readable id in a reply (with or without `loaded/`, or in a
`file:` URL with no host or `localhost`) is now found first, and a
hidden id or path that lies inside it stays. The same path after a
drive or in a URL with another host is still hidden.
Document Info's Brushes category now lists the brushes the artwork's
strokes draw with, each once with its type (Calligraphic, Scatter, Art,
Pattern or Bristle), as the Document Info panel help page describes:
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/get-started/learn-the-basics/document-info-panel.html
Without Selection Only the category used to list every brush in the
Brushes panel, used or not; it now lists only the brushes art uses.
document.info adds `brushes` ([{name, type}]) and `panelBrushNames`
(the Brushes panel's brushes), and `brushNames` holds the used brushes.
Hidden strokes, strokes with no paint or width, guides, paths with no
segment, type that draws no characters, groups' and layers' own strokes,
compound path members' own strokes and image strokes without a shape
are left out. A brush the panel does not hold is listed as missing,
with a null type, and a name two panel brushes share takes the type of
the brush the renderer draws with.
With Use Artboards off, the Preserve Editing data held a copy of the
document whose artboards were replaced by the one around the art, so
reopening the PDF lost the document's artboards. document.exportPdf,
document.export and the Summary's export in memory now leave the data
out of such a PDF and warn, as a PDF of some artboards does.
