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.
The Limited palette's median cut ranks cuts by pixel-weighted gain. A
large near-black ground with faint noise therefore took two colors less
than 0.02 apart in Oklab, and the trace drew blotches of one over the
other.
With 9 to 16 colors, a cut whose two sides both have a dark gray mean
(Oklab lightness under 0.30, chroma under 0.03) and lie less than 0.03
apart now has its gain scaled by (distance / 0.03)^2 while the cut is
chosen. The ground keeps one color, and the color it would have taken
goes to another cut. Document Library without swatches follows Limited.
Other color counts, Full Tone and Automatic choose the same cuts as
before.
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.
A PDF-compatible .ai saved with Include Editing Data for Other Apps
wrote no text wrap options, so a wrap object opened from the file no
longer wrapped type. An object with only wrap options got no
dictionary at all.
The writer now writes each wrap object's options in its dictionary as
`AI11TextWrapOffset` (`/Real`) and `AI11TextWrapInvert` (`/Bool`, 1 or
0), the entries `text_wrap` in crates/eps/src/import/ai/read/document.rs
reads, beside the object's name, variables and opacity mask.
- The offset is the one in the art's space, so on a large canvas it is
written at 1/10 and read back at its size. An offset that is not
finite is written as the default 6 pt, and one past the -1000 to
1000 pt the reader keeps as the nearer end of that range.
- Art the writer draws for an object (a blend's steps, a symbol
instance written as its art, a brushed stroke's pieces, pattern
tiles, an object's drawn look) is written without the options of the
objects it is made from. The object itself and a symbol's own art
keep theirs.
- A clipping path written as its fills and its strokes has its options
once.

On Linux and the BSDs, craft-window reads the desktop's window-button
layout (`button-layout` in `org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences`) into
`Frame::App` when the desktop leaves the window's frame to the app, but
the app bar ignored it and always drew Minimize, Maximize and Close at
its right end.
- `CaptionLayout` lists the buttons at each end of the bar;
`caption_buttons` draws them there in the listed order, first one
leftmost, and the bar's other controls keep clear of both groups.
- The desktop app copies the layout of an app frame the desktop left to
it. An app frame turned on by `VECTORCRAFT_TITLEBAR=app` or by
VectorCraft Title Bar on Every Desktop, a window opened through
XWayland, macOS and Windows keep all three at the right.

it is in COMPLETE_MESSAGES, but the untranslated report listed 1,842
status and error messages with no Italian row, so with the interface in
Italian those messages showed in English.
- it.tsv gains 1,802 `@msg` rows. The translations are VectorCraft's
own, written from the English meaning with the catalog's terms, and
await native review. Placeholders, backticked names, command ids,
double-quoted values and bare true, false and null stay as the
English writes them.
- The untranslated report now lists 40 Italian messages. 38 of those
keys get Italian rows from open pull requests 7211, 7214 and 7116,
so they are left out here. Menu strings, `tl!` literals, undo labels
and swatch names are unchanged.
- The Italian row of docs/localization-parity.md gives the catalog's
current counts, and docs/target-app-parity.md has a line for the
change.
Session::replace_document on a tab other than the current one cleared
the bounds of type set in a font named like a composite font and left
that type with estimated bounds until the document came to the front.
- The replacement's type without bounds is measured at once, in the
document's own composite fonts, lent for the measuring. The front
document stays the one whose composite fonts are registered.
- When the document then comes to the front unchanged, its type in its
own composite fonts is not measured again. Type set in a composite
font only another document defines is still measured again, as
missing, and so is type set in a composite font name that another
thread's loan held with a different definition.
The German catalog lacked a row for 1,842 of the status and error
messages that the untranslated report finds in the sources, so the
status bar showed those messages in English.
- de.tsv gains 1,842 `@msg` rows: the errors of commands and their
parameter checks, scripts, file import and export, printing and
plug-ins. The translations are VectorCraft's own, written from the
English meaning with the catalog's conventions and its existing
feature names. Placeholders, parameter names, command ids and
literal values stay as the English writes them.
- The untranslated report now lists no German messages. Menu strings,
`tl!` literals, undo labels and swatch names are unchanged.
- Two of the messages have two placeholders in a row. The catalog does
not load such a row, so those two are still shown in English.
- The German row of docs/localization-parity.md gives the catalog's
current message counts.

A legacy .ai graph (%_Gs ... %_GS) opened as plain art, with its table,
type, axes and settings left out. A grouped column, stacked column, line
or area graph now keeps them on its group when every record has the
shape and values the version 7 specification's appendix A gives, the
table holds at least one number, the drawn art strokes the plot's left
and bottom edges, and each series group is tagged once as a whole
column, holds only paths and paints them with one fill and one stroke.
The saved art stays as it is on open; Graph Data redraws the graph from
its data afterward, with each series' fill and stroke kept.
Any other graph (pie and scatter graphs, designs, customizations, record
shapes of later versions, tables past 10,000 categories, 256 series or
2,600,000 cells) keeps its art as plain objects with the existing note.
Saving a graph to .ai, in either form, now warns that its data and
settings are not written.
Right-to-left type on a path that overflows searched for the start of its
text that fits with a binary search, which assumed that a longer start
never fits once a shorter one does not. A letter tracked to a negative
advance breaks that: with steps of 6, 6, -3 and 6 points in a 10 point
span, the first three letters fit while the first two do not, and the
search showed only the first letter.
- Without hanging punctuation, and with no spacing or on a path of one
straight segment, every start is measured in O(n log n): each glyph
keeps its place in the whole text's visual order, except the trailing
whitespace and controls that UAX #9 rule L1 sets to the paragraph's
level.
- With hanging punctuation, or spacing on a curve, when a letter has a
negative advance, a start is a candidate only when its glyphs, in its
own visual order and each at the least step it can take, reach no
farther than the path's length. This lower bound holds with negative
advances.
- At most 32 candidates are arranged from the longest. When none of
them fits, a binary search over the rest shows a start that fits,
which is not always the longest.
- With hanging punctuation, or spacing on a curve, text with no negative
advance keeps the binary search.
Right-aligned and centered type on a curve with Spacing was placed using
the width its glyphs have at the start bracket, while the steps were
measured where the line was placed, so a line that fits could end past
the end bracket and lose glyphs. It is now placed using the width of the
steps it has where it is placed.
A path directly in a graph series lost what these commands gave it when
the graph was drawn again, for example after graph.setData:
- While Global Edit is on in an isolated graph, a match that is a series
path, or a series group whose paths take the edit, now has what
changed on its paths stored for their series: the paint, weight,
opacity and blend mode of the topmost visible fill and stroke, and the
object's opacity and blend mode. The edited match is stored by its own
command as before.
- addon.arrange.randomizeOpacity and addon.arrange.sort with apply
"opacity" now store the object opacity, with the blend mode, of the
series paths whose opacity they change. When they change several
paths of one series, the frontmost of them sets what the graph
stores, as for the other commands.
The graph stores them in the same undo step as the edit. The params
text of addon.arrange.randomizeOpacity and addon.arrange.sort,
docs/mcp.md and docs/target-app-parity.md describe the new behavior.
