`insideFirst: true` (default false) draws each pen's path only after
the pen's paths that lie inside it: a letter's counter before the
letter, a part's holes before the part. Without `sortPaths` the paths
otherwise keep paint order; with it, the next path is the nearest of
those free to draw.
Touching outlines count as inside; crossing ones, and copies of one
outline, do not. Finding which paths lie inside which shares the plot's
work budget with sorting, and each case that runs out of it adds a
warning.

Under --automation-read-root, prefs.get, prefs.list, prefs.set and
prefs.reset returned the folder preferences (fontsFolder, pluginsFolder,
scratchPrimary, scratchSecondary, recoveryFolder, templatesFolder) and
the export presets' folder even when they were outside the read roots.
Such a folder preference is now null, as ui.inspect leaves it out, and
such a preset's folder is left out. An empty folder and the scratch disk
choices stay; without roots the replies are unchanged.
A filled open path wrote its outline as an open polyline, so with fill
hatches left out (and in R12, and in CNC / CAM) the area lost its closing
edge. Fill outlines now close each open subpath that can enclose an area;
strokes of the same path stay open.
A manifest whose `commands` value is not a list, whose entry is not an
object, or whose command `id` or `label` is not a string was refused with
serde's own text ("invalid type: ..., expected command [0] as {id, label,
params?}"), and no catalog had rows for it or for the reader's other
`commands` messages. The reader now gives its own message for each of
these cases, and the complete-message catalogs translate them, together
with "missing field", "duplicate field" and the manifest prefix with its
line and column.
docs/gaps.md, docs/file-format-parity.md and docs/ui-parity.md still
listed the CNC preset as open after #5500 added it. They now name DXF
Options' Preset menu and dxfPreset: "cnc" on document.exportDxf; VCarve
QA stays open. The ui-parity row also no longer lists native CIRCLE/ARC
export as pending.
An approval question that a control request, MCP, injected input, or a
file dialog one of them opened leads to now keeps OK disabled and
refuses every confirm, a person's click included. The dialog says to
choose Object › Plug-ins › Install Plug-in…, and ui.installPlugin answers
approval: "personMustStartInstall". The person's own Install Plug-in…,
File › Open or drop inspects the module again and asks a new question
with its half-second delay.
The origin is fixed when the request is made and goes with a native
file dialog's deferred answer and the web picker's answers, which now
arrive apart from drops and from window.vectorcraft.openFile (always
automation). A question about taking another module's place now opens
in the approval dialog, and automation's replace: true no longer skips
it. A module that needs no approval still installs at once.
Convert To Point Type left Dynamic Text on when it turned Block area
type into point type. Point type has no Dynamic Text, but the flag was
saved, and converting the type back to area type turned Block on again
and fitted the lines to the new frame. The conversion now turns it off;
the point type keeps the sizes and leading Block wrote into the
characters, and the conversion is still one undo step.
draw_shape's rotation also turns rectangles and ellipses; object.reflect's numeric axis is counter-clockwise from horizontal. A test covers that axis and the Scatter brush's rotation range, which every_turn_param_says_which_way_it_turns can't reach.
