Type selected by id on a hidden, locked or template layer, or outside
the isolated group, no longer counts as selected type: the command stays
off and does not select that frame's thread. The check reads the
object's ancestry, so the Select menu does not walk the whole document.
Select › Same › Link Block Series no longer counts hidden or locked type
inside a selected group, or type inside a hidden or locked object there,
as selected. A group that holds only such type leaves the command off, and
the command does not select the other frames of that type's thread.
Select › Same › Link Block Series (select.same.linkBlockSeries) selects every
frame of the threads that the selected type objects, and the type inside
selected groups, are in, in thread order. Type in no thread selects itself,
other selected objects are left out, and with frames of several threads
selected it selects all of them. Hidden, locked and out-of-isolation frames
are left out, Reselect repeats it, and it records no undo step. The item is
off while no type is selected.
Menu row in every catalog, docs/mcp.md and a docs/target-app-parity.md line.
File > Open and File > Place read BMP files named .dib or .rle (run-length
encoded bitmaps included), Photoshop files named .pdd and PNG files named
.pns, in any letter case. The Open and Place dialogs list them in "All
readable files", "All placeable files" and their format's own filter, and
Glass's Load Texture lists them too. Linked files with these names update
and relink, the Links panel shows their format, and Edit Original opens
them.
The extensions are read-only: exports still write .bmp, .psd and .png, and
an export to a path with one of the new extensions is refused as before.
The desktop packaging does not associate them with the app.
addon.color.swatchLegend replaces swatch.legend. The dialog sets columns, chip size, gap, the values shown
and whether to use only the swatches selected in the Swatches panel, with a preview; duplicate value
kinds are refused. The Swatches panel menu item is removed. Catalog rows in all 26 languages.
swatch.legend draws a grid of chips, one per colour swatch (the given
ones, else every one), each filled with and linked to its swatch and
labelled with its name and colour values (HEX, RGB, CMYK, Lab or
Grayscale; by default its own model; spot swatches marked), black on
light chips and white on dark ones, as one selected group in one undo
step. The Swatches panel menu's Create Swatch Legend draws the selected
colour swatches, else every one.
Window > Arrange > Tile (window.arrange.tile) splits the document area
into one pane per open document, edge to edge, in a grid with as many
columns as the square root of the number of documents, rounded up. Each
document is fitted to its pane, and fitted again when its pane changes
size (a document opened or closed, the window resized) unless it was
zoomed or scrolled since. The current document's pane is the canvas;
the other panes draw their documents with their artboards, guides,
selected objects and Pixel Preview, and a press in one makes its
document the current one, as a click on its tab does. Window > Arrange >
Consolidate All Windows (window.arrange.consolidateAllWindows) goes back
to one document under its tab. It works the same on the desktop and the
web, and the arrangement is not saved.
Tile is enabled with two or more open documents, and Consolidate All
Windows while documents are tiled. ui.inspect reports tiled and the
panes.
Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts listed commands whose params are all optional
but that do nothing or fail when a key runs them with none, such as
Transparency (transparency.set) and Opacity Mask Options
(transparency.setOpacityMask). These are now left out while they have
no shortcut, along with Align and Distribute, Delete Swatch, Move
Swatch, Spot Options, Adjust Color Balance, the library and data set
loaders, stroke.set, layer.setProps and menu queries that no menu item
runs. A key saved for one of them before keeps it listed so it can be
cleared.
A shortcut for a command whose menu bar items all give it the same
params now runs what a click on that item runs, so Clean Up..., Print
Ink Fixes... and Find and Replace... open their dialogs.
Exports warn about type in a symbol's art that is set in a missing
font and point to Find Font, but Find Font and Replace Missing Fonts
only looked at the type on the layers.
- text.fonts lists the fonts of the type in the document's symbols too;
with selectionOnly, of the symbols the selected instances show.
- select.font (Find) also selects the instances of the symbols whose
art uses the font in type that is not hidden or locked.
- text.replaceFont changes that type in the symbols in scope, so every
instance follows. Type hidden or locked in a symbol's art, and the
type of symbols that only a selected hidden or locked instance shows,
keeps its font and is counted in skipped.
- addon.cleanup.replaceFonts replaces missing fonts in symbols' type.
While a symbol is edited, its type is taken from the editing layer
only, so it is counted and changed once.
Action Options… opens the New Set and Set Options dialog, headed Action
Options, with the selected action's name; OK renames the action and keeps
its steps. The new command ui.action.rename {set, action, name} does the
rename and refuses an index past the last set or action or an empty name.
Part of #1629.
symbol.edit checks the new placement before it ends the symbol being edited, so a call with an out-of-range x or y fails and leaves the current edit open. While a symbol is edited, object.isolate refuses art outside the editing layer, and object.exitIsolation goes back to the editing layer only from a group inside it; from any other isolation it leaves symbol editing mode.
Headless tests cover a double-click on a symbol in Thumbnail View and List View, the panel
menu's Edit Symbol with and without a selected instance, the Control bar's Edit Symbol button,
and the Control bar's Exit Symbol Editing Mode and Exit Isolation Mode buttons inside the
symbol's art. The panel's module comment now says a double-click opens the symbol in symbol
editing mode, and docs/mcp.md lists symbol.edit's ids parameter.
Horizontal Scale and Vertical Scale accept any number above 0 and at most 4000000 %, and Baseline Shift accepts -4000000 to 4000000 pt, the limits the document model keeps a character style in. Character Rotation is stored from -180 to 180 degrees, as text.setFormat stores it. A scale outside its limit shows the new message "{label} must be a number above 0 and at most {max}", translated in every catalog that has Basic Character Formats.
Character Style Options and New Character Style get an Advanced
Character Formats section with Horizontal Scale, Vertical Scale,
Baseline Shift, Character Rotation and Language. Empty fields stay
unset, an explicit 100%, 0 degrees or English: USA stays distinct from
unset, and Reset Panel on the section clears only these five. Scales
take 1% to 10000% and baseline shift -1296 pt to 1296 pt, as
text.setRangeStyle does; rotation is stored from -180 to 180 degrees.
Language sets the language the characters are shaped in; hyphenation
and spelling do not change.
A field still as it opened keeps its stored value without the range
check, so a style captured from a scaled type object can be renamed.
The same applies to Basic's Size and Leading minimum.
charStyle.edit keeps a language tag that is not in the list when the
style already has it, so a style read from a file with such a tag can
be edited.
With one Objects on Path group selected, the Selection and Objects on
Path tools show a round handle beyond the top of the group's first
object, joined by a line to its attachment point. Dragging it adds the
angle the pointer turns about that point to the group's Rotate, previewed
while dragging and kept as one undo step on release
(object.objectsOnPath.options). Shift turns in 15 degree steps, Escape
cancels the drag, and the pointer shows the rotate cursor over the
handle.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md, docs/mcp.md.
Window › Swatch Libraries and the Swatches panel's library menu get a
Patterns submenu with Geometric Patterns, a built-in library of eleven
black pattern swatches drawn in code (dots, stripes, a checkerboard, a
grid, diamonds, triangles, crosses and a zigzag).
- Clicking a pattern in its library panel adds the pattern and its
swatch to the document and applies it to the active fill or stroke
(Alt: the other one), as one undo step. A second click reuses the
swatch; a different pattern under the same name keeps its name and
the library's pattern comes in numbered.
- swatch.library.list lists the pattern libraries after the gradient
libraries (category "patterns"), and swatch.library.add brings a
pattern swatch's pattern as pasting art painted with it does.
- The library panel draws each pattern tile from the library's pattern.
- "Geometric Patterns" is translated in every catalog.
The Actions panel menu has Duplicate, between New Set… and Delete. With
an action selected it copies that action to right after it in the same
set; otherwise it copies the current set, with all its actions, to right
after that set. The copy is named after the original with " copy" added
and is selected, and a copied set gets an id of its own. Copies are
saved with the other sets.
ui.actionSet.duplicate {set?: index, action?: index} does the copy and
returns {set, action?}. An index past the last set or action is an
error. A recording into a later set and an open Set Options or Batch
dialog stay on their own set and action.
The bucket outlines the face under the pointer at its Width setting and an
edge at half of it (4 px and 2 px by default), as the help page says faces
are highlighted with a thick line and edges with a thin line. The Live
Paint Selection tool keeps one width for faces and edges.
A bin table that lists more than 100,000 runs of character or of paragraph
properties is refused while its pages are read. Every paragraph now counts
against the 100,000-paragraph limit, hidden and deleted ones and those in
field instructions included, and so does every line break. The properties
of the styles and of the property runs are read from one budget of 16 MiB,
and a document with more is refused.
Text inside a field's instructions is found with a count of the fields
open in their instructions instead of a search of the open fields for each
character.
Stshif.cstd counts the LPStd records of the style sheet and must be less than
0x0FFE. A sheet that ended before cstd records was read as far as it went, and
paragraphs in the missing styles were placed with the document defaults; a
cstd of 0x0FFE or more was cut to 0x0FFE. Both are now refused as a damaged
style sheet.
Each style's formatting is now worked out once, on top of the style it
is based on, and each property run's formatting once, so a document with
many hidden paragraphs or long style chains no longer resolves the
chains again for every paragraph and run. Character styles are applied
as a change to the paragraph's formatting.
A bin table whose file positions do not rise, a property page listed
twice, pages whose runs overlap, and styles based on each other in a
loop are refused as damaged, as MS-DOC requires (PlcBteChpx, ChpxFkp,
StdfBase). Property runs refer to their page instead of copying it.
dataset.import and variable.loadLibrary added an undo step, cleared Redo
and marked a saved document modified even when the variables and data
sets came out as they were, such as the same CSV or library loaded
again. Both now build the new variables on a copy and record a step only
when it differs. variable.loadLibrary's params text and docs/mcp.md say
so.
dataset.import read two header cells that named one variable (City
and City, or Shown and #Shown) into the same column, so each row kept
only the last non-blank cell and the other value was dropped without a
word. The import is now refused with the two column numbers, and the
message has a row in every complete-message catalog.
dataset.import replaced the reason for a refused cell with "value for
`X` must match its variable kind", so a visibility value such as
maybe and a graph value over 262,144 bytes gave the same message. The
error now keeps the line and gives the reason, and both messages have
a row in every complete-message catalog.
Save… in the Document Info panel menu now writes only the category the
panel shows, with Selection Only applied. With All Categories shown it
writes every category, as before. docInfo.save takes an optional
category (a document.info category id) and passes it to document.info.
Simplify Anchors (Keep Shape) simplified every path under the selection,
locked and hidden paths and paths in locked or hidden groups included.
It now takes only the paths Document::editable allows, as the health
check and Rejoin Path Pieces already do.
Deep Ungroup took apart hidden and locked groups inside the selection,
so their members became visible or unlocked. A hidden or locked group
now stays whole, a locked or hidden object named in ids is left alone,
and members that are locked or hidden themselves keep that and are not
selected. With no group to take apart, the reply's ids list the
selection, which stays as it was.
The Edit tab's color mode menu offers Global Adjust, with Saturation,
Brightness, Temperature and Luminosity sliders from -100% to 100% that
open at 0%, which changes nothing. One slider changes every recolored
color, each one separately, in its own model; the rows keep their new
colors and the art previews the change. The Edit tab also shows the
color sliders of the selected new color in the other modes.
recolor.apply takes globalAdjust {saturation, brightness, temperature,
luminosity}. Excluded rows and colors no row holds stay as they are, a
rewritten color group takes the same change, and with Limit to Library
each row's new color takes it before it snaps to the library.

A version 7 text object has no arbitrary-angle character rotation: its
character attributes include baseline shift (Ts), scaling (Tz) and
tracking (Tt), Tv only turns Roman characters 90 degrees in vertical
text, and the positioning operators such as Tm are ignored on reading.
Type with Character Rotation was written as editable text with the
rotation left out, so rotated characters opened upright.
Such type is now written as its glyphs' outlines, the way type 8-bit text
can't hold already is, with the warning "type with rotated characters is
written as outlines, which keep the rotation, and is no longer editable
text". The outlines keep each character's rotation, baseline shift and
scale. Type without rotated characters, and type turned a whole number of
times, is still written as text.

An override on a dynamic symbol instance names an object of its symbol's
art by path. Replace Symbol kept every override whose path the new
symbol's art also had, so a change made to one object of the old symbol
was applied to an unrelated object of the new one. An instance given a
different symbol now drops its overrides; an instance replaced with its
own symbol keeps them. Undo brings them back.
