- After a fill drag, the Live Paint Bucket stores the release point, so the
cursor swatch preview shows there instead of where the pointer last moved
before the press.
- Arrow nudges and Alt+arrow type spacing read Shift and Alt from the key
press, as the tool keys do, so a modifier released within the same frame
still makes a 10 pt nudge, a copy, or a spacing step.
- tool.setOption accepts cursorSwatchPreview for the Live Paint Bucket and
refuses a value that is not true or false.
craft_dxf::parse_recovering reads the tags (ASCII and binary, any code
page), model::Document::read the sections, tables, blocks, layouts and
entity followers, and Entity::read each entity. The pair parser, the
records, the header, layer, block and layout readers and the colour
palette are gone; what stays is the mapping onto VectorCraft art.
Binary DXF files now open instead of being refused. A damaged binary
file says so.
A CSV file that holds NUL bytes and has no byte-order mark was refused.
It is now read as UTF-16 when at least half of its two-byte units hold
a NUL byte, in the byte order that reads a line break. A file with fewer
NUL bytes (UTF-8 or Windows-1252 text with stray NUL bytes, or UTF-16
text made mostly of characters above U+00FF) is still refused, and so is
a file that reads a line break in both byte orders, has an odd length,
isn't valid UTF-16 in that order or holds a NUL character. Refused files
get the same message as before.
The copies of symbol instances drawn in a knockout group's soft masks
counted toward the objects the export's visible symbol art may hold, so
overlapping instances could use that limit up and leave later visible
instances out. Mask copies now count toward a limit of their own. When a
group's masks would leave out symbol art because that limit runs out,
the masks are discarded and the group is written as a PDF knockout
group, with a warning.
The object count that decides whether a group is drawn through masks
left out the art a brushed stroke expands into. A group in which a mask
would draw a brushed stroke is now written as a PDF knockout group, with
its own warning. The search follows what the export draws: visible
members, opacity masks that are on, symbol and inline graphic art, live
objects and placed documents as evaluated, and pattern tiles, and it
skips strokes without paint, width or a known brush.
A knockout group whose elements need no masks is written as a PDF
knockout group without a warning, so the two engine PDF tests that
expected the old warning now check that case and the brushed one.
addon.pathtools.cornerSet and cornerRemove now refuse a key other than
id and anchors in an `items` member, with the standard unknown-parameter
error, instead of ignoring it. A misspelled `anchor` used to fall back
to the request's `anchors`, else the path's direct-selected anchors,
else every corner of the path. They also refuse `items` given together
with `ids`, which `items` replaces. Saved steps played with replay
still run as recorded.

Text Wrap Options showed Offset as a plain number in points. It is now a
distance field in the document's General unit: a bare number is in that
unit, a typed unit is read as typed, and OK sends points.
The field's range is the one object.textWrap.options keeps an Offset to,
-1000 to 1000 pt, read from the engine's TEXT_WRAP_OFFSET_RANGE. A value
typed outside it, or text that doesn't read, is refused: the field
flashes and the dialog stays open. The ends as the field shows them in
another unit (352.7778 mm for 1000 pt) read back as the ends.
In the dialogs drawn by the shared dialog window, a click on OK no
longer confirms the dialog when the field it takes the focus from
refuses its text, as Enter already did not. OK pressed from the keyboard
after such a click still confirms.
A Live Paint Bucket click or drag over faces that already have the
fill, a stroke on an edge that already has the paint and width, Gap
Options with the options the groups have and no gap to close, and Make
or Merge given one Live Paint group alone now leave the document, the
undo and redo steps and the saved state as they are, and reply as
usual. Such a fill or stroke also leaves the recent colors as they are.
Gap Options with Close Gaps With Paths makes a group's faces again only
when it adds a path or what paint stops at changes, so the faces keep
their ids otherwise.
Type > Create Outlines dropped the fills and strokes of the type object
itself (the items around the Appearance panel's Characters row), so the
outlines no longer drew what the type drew. On type without effects of
its own, Object > Expand outlines the type with the same command, so it
lost them before Fill or Stroke could expand them.
- Create Outlines puts those items on paths of the type's whole outline:
the items below the Characters row on one path under the glyph paths,
the others on one path over them, in their order. Unplaced gradients
are fixed to the type's layout box, as the canvas paints them.
- object.expand.info reports the type object's own strokes, pattern
fills and gradient fills, measuring a gradient on the whole outline.
It counts them only when the type has an outline: type of only spaces
reports none of them.
- The stroke flag of object.expand.info counts every stroke Outline
Stroke outlines, not only the topmost one, for paths as well as type.
Expand skipped Stroke for a visible stroke under a stroke with no
paint.
Create Outlines still does not carry over the type object's own effects.

Invert Colors, the Convert to commands, Saturate, Adjust Color Balance,
the Blend commands and Recolor Artwork recorded an undo step even when
they changed no color, for example Invert Colors with fills and strokes
off, Saturate at 0 or a second Blend Front to Back. The empty step also
cleared the redo steps. paint.invert and paint.complement on whole
objects, Apply as Filter (addon.color.filter) and Apply Nearest Swatch
run the same pass and did the same.
These commands now run on a copy of the document and record the step
only when something changed. Convert to Indexed Color uses the same
helper. Recolor Artwork also compares the documents when it counted no
recolored paint, so rewriting a color group's swatches still records
its step.
A graph draws the art of a column or marker design inside a series again
from the stored design. Rows, effects and graphic styles that a command
gave that art were lost the next time the graph's data, type or size
changed. The paint commands already left the art out.
- The appearance.* row and whole-appearance commands, effect.apply,
appearance.addEffect and the effect.* commands that edit, move or
remove an effect, threeD.mapGraphic, graphicStyle.apply,
graphicStyle.addFromLibrary with apply, transparency.set with a fill
or stroke item, and appearance.copyFrom (as the target) leave out any
object inside a series group other than a path directly in it, given
by id, selected or reached through target: "contents". They edit the
other objects given, and a command whose objects are all design art
is an error.
- appearance.transfer with design art as its target, or as its source
without copy, is an error.
- A Pathfinder effect no longer groups selected design art.
- The paint commands given a design's copy with a fill or stroke item
leave it out as well.
docs/mcp.md states the rule, and the Graphs line in
docs/target-app-parity.md names it.
