File › Scripts ran an installed script as source text, so the run had no
file: an #include line ended it with "script file read refused", and
$.evalFile was refused too. The menu now checks the script as before and
runs it with script.run {path}, as docs/mcp.md describes, so its
included files and the files $.evalFile runs are read beside it.
A symbol whose natural size is not 20 x 20 is drawn through its 9-slice
guides by an instance that only moves, so art the guides move can draw
outside the art box moved by the instance. The visual box took that
moved art box alone, and the renderer culled the instance when only the
moved art was in view. The visual box now measures such an instance as
it does a scaled one.
Expand Appearance on a symbol instance with a fill tint and a color
adjustment applied the adjustment to the untinted art, so the expanded
colors differed from the canvas. The expand path now passes the tinted
instance art to adjust_in_document.
A selected segment that path.insertAnchor splits stays selected as its
two halves. The new anchor is the end both halves share, so it moves
with them, and Delete cuts both halves. docs/mcp.md and the comment on
renumber_after_insert called it a direct-selected anchor; they now
describe it as an end of the halves that moves with them.
Break Link to Symbol on an instance just placed on a locked artboard
selected nothing: the art that replaced the instance has a new id, so the
locked-artboard check did not see it as new art. The art of an instance
that was new art is now checked without the locked artboards, and the
session keeps it selected as new art. The art of an older instance on a
locked artboard, named by id, is still left out of the selection.
With Distort Appearance, the stroked candidate for type in an envelope
mapped from the type's bounds with strokes, which for a stroke on the
type's appearance (or on a group round it) reach as far as a miter join
may at a corner, the miter limit times half the weight. In users' files
the drawn art maps from the glyphs grown by what the strokes paint along
a side: half the weight of a centred stroke. The candidate now uses that
box. Character strokes keep the measure the type's bounds with strokes
already give them (they have no miter allowance), and other objects in
the contents keep their bounds with strokes.

Merges of main kept both sides of conflicting edits to the milestone
table, so M3, M7, M10, M11 and M13 appeared two to four times, each
copy with a different subset of later edits. Keep one row per
milestone. For M3, M10, M11 and M13 the kept row already contains every
statement in the removed copies. For M7 no copy held them all: the kept
row gains the Hyphenation and Justification clause that only the
second copy carried.
Before the Reshape tool had focal points it sent path.reshape without
focal or radius, and the command stretched an open path from the grabbed
point to its ends whatever the selection, and moved the anchors of a
closed path within half the diagonal of its bounding box with a
falloff. Such a step, in a saved action or a script, now moved a closed
path whole. A step without focal (or with focal null) and without
radius now plays by that earlier rule. The Reshape tool always sends
focal, an empty list included, so its drags keep the focal-point rule.
The two Tint fields in the Character Color section were both named
"Tint", so a screen reader gave no way to tell the Fill field from the
Stroke one. They are now named "Fill Tint" and "Stroke Tint"; the
visible caption stays "Tint". The names have rows in every catalog, and
a test checks both names in Character Style Options and New Character
Style.
On a vertical path, an upright glyph is now placed in its column as
vertical point type places it, then the column is centered on the path.
- Its cell starts at its place on the path; it started 0.12 em earlier
with fonts whose cell top is less than a full cell above the baseline.
- A baseline shift moves it across the column instead of along the path.
- A horizontal scale widens it evenly about the column's center.
- A combining mark stays on its upright letter.
- The caret and the selection highlight span the column, half its em on
each side of the path, instead of the font's ascent and descent.
With Skew, 3D Ribbon and Stair Step on a path that runs to the left,
letters are a quarter turn counterclockwise from upright glyphs: Skew and
3D Ribbon mirror both kinds there, and Stair Step keeps letters level. The
test, the progress doc and the params text of Tate-chu-yoko Settings now
state these conditions and the block's directions on a path.
Before writing a PDF preset, ICC profile, plug-in, Color Settings,
disabled list or grants file, the store compared the new bytes with the
file already there by reading the whole file into memory, so a large file
left in the folder was read in full. The comparison now reads at most one
byte more than the new content.
path.insertAnchor (the Add Anchor Point tool, the Pen's Auto Add, the
Smart Pen's Alt-click on a segment and Alt-click with the Scissors)
added the anchor without changing the selection, so the direct-selected
anchors and selected segments after it on the subpath kept their old
numbers and the selection shifted onto the next points along. It now
renumbers them with renumber_after_insert, the helper path.reshape
uses. A selected segment that the new anchor splits stays selected as
its two halves, and the new anchor is direct-selected with them. Undo
restores the path and the selection in one step.

Before a script runs, `script.run` reads its preprocessor lines (`#` or
`//@` at the start of a line, outside strings and comments):
- `#include` and `//@include` put another file's text in place of the
line, looked for beside the including file, then in each
`#includepath` folder, then in each `JSINCLUDE` folder. A later
`#includepath` replaces the list.
- `#script` names the run unless `name` is given; `#target` takes any
value; `#strict off` is taken. `#strict on`, `#targetengine` and
`#engine` are refused as unsupported, and any other `#name` as
unknown.
`$.evalFile(path, timeout?)` runs a file in the same global environment
and returns its last value, `$.fileName` is the file being run and
`$.includePath` the include folders.
A script run from a file reads these files only in its folder and the
folders below it. Paths with a `..` name, links or junctions that lead
out, device names, streams and network paths are refused; a script
given as text reads none. A run reads at most 64 files 16 levels deep,
32 MiB of source in all and 1,024 paths looked up. An error in an
included or evaluated file is reported at that file's line and column,
and the report's new `file` field names it.
Docs: docs/mcp.md (script.run, Script Console), docs/target-app-parity.md.
Raster renders, ink renders, thumbnails and node renders now lend the
document's composite fonts to the font database while they draw, as the
PDF, SVG and EPS writers already do. A document that is not in front, a
document read from a file (library thumbnails, save previews) and a
placed document's art drew such type in the fallback font or in another
definition of that name.
When the pass that reads the document and the saved PDF preference
together failed with a data error, open read the whole document a second
time without the preference. A document past a read budget, or with any
other data error, was then read up to the budget again before it was
refused. Open now reads it again only when the first pass stopped at a
pdfCompatible that is not a boolean, which it tells by reading the
preference alone over the bytes up to the first pass's error position.
Follows #5557. Letters and digits lying on their side in vertical type on
a path kept their top toward the path's end, opposite the upright glyphs.
They are now set as horizontal type on the path sets them: baseline along
the path, top to the path's left, a quarter turn clockwise from upright
glyphs (CSS Writing Modes 3, Unicode UAX #50).
- The column is centered on the path: upright glyphs, letters on their
side and tate-chu-yoko blocks have their em box centers on the path
line instead of a column one em wide to the path's right.
- Upright glyphs are turned in the path effect's glyph space, so with
Skew on a curve their top runs back along the tangent and their x axis
stays up the page, as letters keep theirs.
- Tate-chu-yoko blocks on a path stand upright, stay whole on a curve and
move by Tate-chu-yoko Settings toward the path's start and left.
- A tate-chu-yoko block of mixed sizes sets every glyph in its first
character's em, on a path and off it.
Existing vertical type on a path redraws with these placements.
render_node_with and render_node_thumbnail_with ignored RenderOptions::supersample
and RenderOptions::precise, so the Asset Export tiles, which ask for both, were drawn
with the canvas's shape-by-shape edges and the fast render mode instead of the export's
look. A node render now supersamples Art Optimized edges as a page render does, and
picks the quality render mode when precise is set, for the art's offscreen groups too.
A linear dimension clicked from an anchor to a point that is not an
anchor (a point on a segment, or a point a Smart Guide gave) followed
the art at the anchor end only, so scaling the art turned it into a
long slanted dimension.
- A point on a segment is stored by its curve parameter on that
segment, and stays on it when the segment's anchors or handles are
edited.
- Any other point is stored against anchors (and, for a path whose
anchors lie on one line, handles) of the path under it, or of the
path at the other end, and moves, scales, turns and reflects with
that path. Beside a path whose anchors and handles all lie on one
line, such as a straight line, it keeps its distance along and
across the path: a reflection moves it as a half turn does, and a
scale that is not uniform moves it as a uniform scale does.
- When linked art is reflected, a linear dimension's line goes to the
reflected side, except for art whose anchors and handles lie on one
line.
- Deleting the art, changing its anchor count or whether it is closed,
turning an angle's arm into a curve, or making a measured circle or
arc no longer circular leaves the dimension where it was, no longer
linked, instead of removing it. Undo links it again.

Break Link to Symbol on a selected group selected the art of every
instance it expanded that was itself shown and unlocked, including art in
a hidden or locked group inside the selection. The art now goes into the
selection only when it and every group and layer holding it are shown and
unlocked, the check Select All uses (select::is_selectable).
The text fields and menus of the Basic Character Formats, Advanced
Character Formats, Character Color and OpenType Features sections, and
the Style Name field of Character Style Options, are now named by the
label beside them, so screen readers announce them. This covers both
Character Style Options and New Character Style, which share the
sections. The New Character Style UI test runs with the accessibility
check on again, and a new test opens every section of both dialogs and
checks that no input is unnamed.
