With the Selection tool, a change in the Character or Paragraph panel to a
selected frame of threaded text now changes every frame of its story,
locked and hidden frames included, in one undo step. Before, only the
selected frames changed.
- The panels send the frames of each selected story as the command's ids:
every Character and Paragraph field, the font family menu and its
preview, Bullets and Numbers, anti-aliasing, Variable Font axes, Reset
Panel in both panels, the Tate-chu-yoko, Warichu and Hyphenation
dialogs, and the Tabs panel's stops and Clear All Tabs. A story
selected through several frames or a group is listed once.
- The fields read every frame of the story and show a value only when all
frames share it.
- Clear All Tabs is enabled when another frame of the story has stops.
- Convert to Text keeps acting on the selected frames.
A .ai path with an Art brush opened with the brush on its stroke only
when the brush stretched its art at 100% in Tints, unflipped. Paths with
an Art brush in None, at another fixed width, with Stretch Between
Guides, or flipped along or across now open as the path with the brush
on its stroke too, and the brush in the Brushes panel has those options.
The guides come in as fractions of the art, from the lengths of the art
outside them. A brush with Scale Proportionately comes into the panel
with that option, and its paths keep their drawn look.
Paths keep their drawn look when their settings that change the drawing
differ from the brush's, and when the brush is in Tints and Shades or
Hue Shift, has a width that follows the pen, has guides that leave no
art between them, or has a Spacing, Adjustment or FoldAdjustment other
than 0, 1 and 1.
The .ai save writes the same options, so such brushes and the paths
that use them come back as they were; a path with a proportional brush
is written as its brush's art.
* PDF import: outlined Indic glyphs keep their own stroke and transparency (#5235)
Follow-up to #6906, for two review findings on how a line kept as
outlines is joined into paths:
- Glyphs were joined when their stroke widths matched; dash, cap, join
and miter limit were ignored, so a dashed glyph took the stroke of the
solid one before it. They join only when the whole stroke matches.
- Translucent glyphs were joined into one fill, where overlapping marks
paint once instead of compositing as the file draws them. Only opaque
glyphs join.
Also records the fix in the PDF row of docs/target-app-parity.md and in
docs/roadmap.md, as AGENTS.md asks.
Tests: outlined_glyphs_stroked_differently_stay_apart and
outlined_translucent_glyphs_stay_apart (both fail without the change).
* PDF import: outlined Indic glyphs under a soft mask stay apart; check kept geometry (#5235)
Review follow-ups on #6957 and #6906:
- Glyphs kept as outlines under a soft mask were joined into one path,
so the mask was applied once to all of them where the file applies it
to each glyph. They now join only when no soft mask is active.
- The fallback tests counted outline nodes only. A new test compares the
kept outlines (element count and bounding box) with the same file
opened as outlines, so a dropped or moved glyph fails it.
Tests: outlined_glyphs_under_a_soft_mask_stay_apart (fails without the
change) and kept_glyphs_are_where_the_file_draws_them.
* PDF import: mask outlined Indic glyphs one by one under a soft mask (#5235)
Review follow-up on #6957. Keeping glyphs out of one shared path was not
enough: each path still went into the soft mask's queue and
flush_masked wrapped them all in one masked group, so a mask that is not
constant was applied once to every glyph, where overlapping glyphs
composite one by one in the file.
With a soft mask active the queued art is now drained before the first
glyph and after each one, so every glyph gets a mask of its own.
Test: outlined_glyphs_under_a_varying_soft_mask_are_masked_one_by_one
checks that each outlined glyph carries its own mask (0 of 3 without
the change).
* #6957: clarify soft-mask exception in glyph grouping docs

After Reset Bounding Box on a turned symbol instance, Break Link to
Symbol and Object > Expand gave the art a box turned with the instance's
transform again. The art's boxes now turn with the instance's own box,
so they stand square when the instance's box did, and the angles the
art has inside the symbol are kept relative to it. The group that an
instance's opacity, blending mode or opacity mask adds around the art
takes the instance's box angle instead of standing square to the page.
A reflected instance can hold a box 180 degrees from the box its
transform gives in one step; the art now takes the instance's box
there too, the same rectangle with its handles where the instance had
them.
Compound shapes and Pathfinder receive an instance's art through the
same rule.
The clip groups and clip paths that 9-slice guides make for gradient
and pattern art take the angle of the cell that places them, and the
outer group keeps the object's angle turned by the instance, instead
of standing square to the page. This also changes the result for an
instance that was never reset: a 20 degree sliced instance gave clip
groups at 0 degrees and now gives them at 20.

Short of room, the Control bar drew the Fill and Stroke chips, the Stroke
link and weight field, the width profile, the Opacity field and the Graphic
Style controls past the panel menu button. Docked, the bar then left the
panel menu out; floating, it cut a control in half.
- Each of those controls now shows only while the bar has room for all of
it. The bar draws them from left to right, each only when the room left
still holds it, so the Opacity link and field can still show after a
Stroke link and weight field that did not fit.
- The Snapping menu, the selection's label, the Convert and Anchors groups,
the isolation button, Document Setup and Preferences show only while
they fit, and a group separator only while it has room.
Test: the_control_bar_s_controls_stay_inside_the_bar_in_a_narrow_window
checks widths from 150 to 1500 points, docked top and bottom and floating.
The Home screen gets a Learn section between Recent Files and the new-file
presets: the Quick skill guide card, which shows the Learn panel's list of
skills (learn.skills), and each tutorial under its skill, which shows the
panel at its steps (learn.show). It works with no document open and over
open documents, opens no document and never hides the panel.
The card is shared with the panel's For you tab and now shows an outline
while it has the keyboard focus.
A command that needs a whole number of 0 or more, such as `index` of
`appearance.setItem`, `anchor` of `path.removeAnchor` and
`addon.pen.removePoint`, `sourceDocument` of `edit.dropSelection`, `index`
of `document.activate` and `to` of `document.move`, answered "missing
integer `index`" (or "missing index") both when the key was left out and
when it was given as a value that is not a whole number of 0 or more, such
as "3", 2.5, -1 or true. A value that is given but is not one is now
refused with "`index` must be a whole number", the message object ids
already use. A key left out or given as null is still missing, and an
optional index such as `subpath` keeps its default. Neither error changes
the document or records an undo step.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
A straight `(N) *` guide path that runs across the canvas or an artboard
opens as a ruler guide, but a hidden one (`1 Xw`) stayed a guide path.
It now opens as a ruler guide too, and every ruler guide made from such a
path keeps the path's hide, lock and name, so its Layers row shows them.
Before, a locked guide opened unlocked and a named one lost its name.
Hidden or locked guide paths that are short, slanted, grouped or `(S) *`
stay guide paths, and commented copies (`%_`) are still left out.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md, docs/file-format-parity.md.
A swatch delete, Swatch Options edit, merge, Edit Color Group, Spot
Colors options change or Default Swatches replace run as a
command.batch step left the fill and stroke new art takes linked to the
old or deleted swatch, because the defaults were skipped whenever an
interaction was open. A batch step now rewrites them as the command run
on its own does; a live Swatch Options preview still leaves them alone,
and a failed batch or a canceled batch preview puts them back.
The same commands now also rewrite the fills and strokes of the
appearance new art takes, and record the change with their undo step,
so Undo and Redo put the paints for new art back with the swatches.
The Actions panel menu has a Button Mode item with a check mark. While it
is on, the panel shows every action of every set by name as a button in
its Action Options color, without set names, steps or checkmarks, and a
click on a button plays that action without its excluded steps. Choosing
Button Mode again shows the list.
- ui.action.buttonMode {enabled?} switches the view (left out: the
other view) and is kept with the UI preferences; it cannot be turned
on while an action records.
- ui.action.playAt {set, action} plays an action by its place, as the
buttons do.
- An action without a color is an ordinary button. The bottom bar shows
only Stop Playing/Recording while an action plays or records, and Play
Current Selection while one waits at a stop. Menu items for a selected
action or the current set are off in Button Mode.

Adds 1,813 @msg rows to zh-hans.tsv, one for each status and error message the
untranslated report listed for Simplified Chinese, except the 38 that open
pull requests translate in their own rows: the composite font, justification
order and Blob Brush connect end errors. The catalog test rejects a second row
for the same key, so leaving them out keeps the catalog consistent when those
pull requests merge.
The report now lists 40 zh-hans messages: those 38, and two that no catalog
has a row for yet. Its menu, tl!, undo label and swatch name sections are
unchanged. Placeholders, backticked names, quoted values and JavaScript
identifiers stay as in the source.
Docs: docs/localization-parity.md (zh-hans row), docs/target-app-parity.md.
A symbol instance colored with the Symbol Stainer lost its stain in
export whenever the canvas's stained art was not used:
- An instance with geometry effects was reshaped for export from the
symbol's art with only its dynamic changes, so SVG, PDF, EPS, .ai,
DXF, EMF/WMF and HPGL wrote the unstained colors. A color adjustment
on an instance recolored the unstained art the same way.
- PDF, EPS, legacy .ai, DXF and EMF/WMF wrote an instance without
effects from the unstained art.
tint_node, stain and instance_art now live in
vectorcraft_doc::symbol_overrides, which both the effects and the
exporters can use; vectorcraft_brush re-exports them. Baking, color
adjustments and the writers above now use instance_art: dynamic changes
first, then the stain.
A closed freehand stroke is fitted as the open stroke would be and closed by a
straight segment from its end back to its start. Fitted as one loop, the
closing segment curved on past both ends and back, like a hat's brim.
The Polish catalog lacked a row for 1,854 of the status and error
messages that the untranslated report finds in the sources, so the
status bar showed those messages in English.
- pl.tsv gains 1,808 `@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.
- 44 of the others get their Polish rows from open #7211, #7214,
#7116, #7330 and #1931, so this change leaves them out. 2 are
messages that no catalog has a row for yet. 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 Polish row of docs/localization-parity.md gives the catalog's
current counts.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md, docs/localization-parity.md.
cs is in COMPLETE_MESSAGES, but the untranslated report listed 1,853
status and error messages with no Czech row, so with the interface in
Czech those messages showed in English.
- cs.tsv gains 1,813 `@msg` rows in one block after the last row. The
translations are VectorCraft's own, written from the English meaning
with the catalog's terms and typography (polite second person, Czech
quotation marks „…“). Placeholders, backticked names, command ids,
double-quoted values and bare true, false and null stay as the
English writes them.
- The 38 messages whose Czech rows open #7211, #7116 and #7330 add are
left out, so the catalog keeps one row per key when they merge.
- Menu strings, `tl!` literals, undo labels and swatch names are
unchanged.
- The Czech row of docs/localization-parity.md gives the catalog's
current counts.
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.
The Traditional Chinese catalog had no row for 1,852 of the status and
error messages that i18n::tests::untranslated_report finds in the
sources, so the status bar showed them in English.
- zh-hant.tsv gets 1,813 @msg rows under one comment line at the end of
the file, written in Taiwan usage with the catalog's existing terms.
Each row keeps the English key, its placeholders, doubled braces,
parameter names, command ids and quoted values unchanged.
- The 38 rows that open #7211, #7116 and #7330 add, and the row #7214
added, are left out, so the catalogs stay consistent.
- docs/localization-parity.md and docs/target-app-parity.md give the new
counts: 3,438 @msg and 48 @msgplural rows, 40 messages still listed.
The rows for `{name} must be {lo}–{hi}{unit} (got {v})` and
`unknown parameter `{within}{key}`; {why}` are counted by the report, but
Template::parse does not load a template with two placeholders in a row,
so those two messages still show in English. The row for
`{k} has control characters{_1}` does not match the message for a
multi-line File Info field, where its last placeholder is empty.
On Linux and the BSDs, the desktop draws the window's frame on X11, on
Wayland compositors that draw server-side decorations and in a window
opened through XWayland. There, with VectorCraft Title Bar on Every
Desktop off, the window has the desktop's title bar with System Title
Bar on or off, and the dialog showed nothing about it under System
Title Bar.
- The desktop app records at startup whether VECTORCRAFT_TITLEBAR is
unset and the desktop would draw the frame without VectorCraft Title
Bar on Every Desktop (VectorcraftApp::desktop_keeps_frame), from the
frame probe and the launch path's XWayland choice.
- Preferences shows a note under System Title Bar in that case while
VectorCraft Title Bar on Every Desktop is off, with rows in the 27
catalogs that carry the neighboring title bar notes. The value is
worked out at startup, so a Linux Display Server change shows in the
note from the next start.

In a document in picas, a bare number typed in Text Wrap Options › Offset
follows Preferences › Units › Numbers Without Units Are Points, as every
length field drawn by the shared unit field does: points while it is on
(the default), picas while it is off. A test covers both settings, and
the evidence line in docs/target-app-parity.md states the rule.
The Korean catalog lacked a row for 1,852 of the status and error
messages that the untranslated report finds in the sources, so the
status bar showed those messages in English. ko.tsv now has an @msg
row for 1,813 of them: the errors of commands and their parameter
checks, scripts, file import and export, printing and plug-ins.
The other 39 are messages that open #7211, #7214, #7116 and #7330
also translate in ko.tsv. They are left out so the catalog has no
duplicate key when those pull requests merge.
The rows keep every placeholder, parameter name, command id and
literal value of the English, and use the feature names the catalog
already has.
The report's Korean menu strings, tl! strings, undo labels and swatch
names are unchanged.
Docs: docs/localization-parity.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
A straight compound path with Twist was read live up to 180° whatever
guides it held, and the live Twist was measured from bounds that take in
the guide members. A straight compound path with Twist whose guide
members reach past its other members now opens as its drawn look
instead of live, and so does a compound path made only of guides.
Compound paths whose guides lie inside their other members, a Twist of
0°, and single paths keep opening live.
The `.ai` writer keeps a graphic-style link only where the reader reads
the style live, so such an object is now written without the link, with
the existing style-link warning.
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.
