A linear dimension between two clicked points, or dragged out from a
segment, always measured the straight distance between its points and
drew its line parallel to them, so two points at different heights gave
only a slanted dimension. The linear dimensions help describes aligned,
horizontal and vertical linear dimensions: after the second click,
clicking again gives an aligned one and moving the pointer gives a
horizontal or vertical one.

While a linear dimension is being placed, the pointer's position sets
whether it is aligned, horizontal or vertical. The rule is VectorCraft's
own. With the pointer beside the two points (the nearest point of the
line through them lies between them) or on that line, the dimension is
aligned. Past either point, the line through the points and the
perpendicular through that point bound a quarter on each side of the
line. The quarter that holds the direction straight up or down gives
the horizontal distance, and the quarter that holds the direction
straight left or right gives the vertical distance. A click within
reach of the second point, or of where the pointer was for the second
click, places it aligned. Points on one horizontal or vertical line
give an aligned dimension. The dimension stays linked to the anchors it
measures.
- Dimension recipes carry an orientation (aligned by default; files
without it open as before). The line runs along the axis, and each
extension line runs from its point to it.
- dimension.create and dimension.update take orientation: aligned,
horizontal or vertical, for linear dimensions only. Any other value
is an error. A new orientation keeps the line on the side of the
points it was on, and an update that changes nothing records no
undo step.
- A horizontal or vertical dimension keeps its orientation when it or
the art it measures turns, and shows 0 when its points come into line
across its axis. A line that lay outside the points stays outside
them after a turn.
- The hint bar names the two-click placement.

Make Compound Path leaves each member's graphic style id in place. A
member copied or cut on its own took the compound's appearance but kept
that old id, so the clipboard carried an unrelated style and the pasted
path was linked to a style that did not match its look.
The copied member or piece now takes the compound's link while it has
that style's look, and no link otherwise (no style on the compound, or
a gradient pinned to the compound's bounds). It also takes the
compound's knockout setting with the rest of its transparency.
They switch the process-wide Color Settings away from the defaults, which
every colour the engine's unit tests show or render goes through, so they
move to tests/color_settings.rs as the note on colormgmt's GLOBAL asks. The
round-trip test now also unregisters the loaded profile before the next
session, so it shows the profile store registering it again before the saved
settings name it.
A call whose arguments hold a file or folder key at any depth, such as an
effect's textureImage.path, is refused before the command runs; the walk
keeps its own stack. Each call also runs with automation file access
confined to no roots, so every checked read or write a command makes is
refused, whichever param carried the path.
A compound member copied or cut on its own now keeps the compound's
gradient fitted where it was: an unplaced gradient is pinned to the
compound's bounds, measured once per compound.
Clear that deletes every anchor or segment of every member of a compound
path now removes the compound too, as Cut does, instead of leaving an
empty compound in the layer.
The edit.copy and edit.clear descriptions, docs/mcp.md and the progress
line now say that selecting the compound copies it whole, that isolation
mode takes each member as itself, and how a compound of one and Paste in
Front with the copied member still selected behave.
A compound-path member selected on its own, whole with Direct Selection
or with Group Selection, is now copied as an ordinary path instead of
promoting the selection to its compound. Cut removes the same objects
Copy takes, so the other members stay a compound path, a compound of
one included. The compound is still taken whole when every member is
selected whole, or when the compound itself is selected.
A copied member or piece takes the compound's paint, opacity, blending
mode, opacity mask, pixel alignment and fill rule.
Tests that pinned the earlier rule from #786 now check the new one.
A command's result describes the document, so a plug-in without doc.read
gets -6 for every call, whether or not the id names a command. A run that
calls commands commits an edit still in progress first and prepares its
input again when that changed the document or the selection.
A filter at plug-in API level 2 with the new `commands` permission names
the commands it may run in its manifest's `commandAllowlist` and runs
them with `env.vc_call`, reading each result with `env.vc_call_result`.
Each call runs through Session::execute on the run's document and sees
what earlier calls changed; the calls and the filter's output are one
undo step, and a run that fails, is cancelled or makes a failed call
leaves the documents, their history and the session state the commands
change as they were.
Commands that touch files, the clipboard, preferences, the view,
scripts, actions, plug-ins, open documents or the undo history are never
callable, and every other command must be listed as allowed in
cmd/plugin_call/reviewed.rs, so a new command is refused until placed.
Calls are capped at 1,000 a run, 8 MiB a call and 64 MiB a run, and each
costs instructions from the run's budget. plugin.install refuses a
manifest that lists a refused command and reports unknown ids;
plugin.inspect lists both, and the approval dialog lists the commands.

With Use Preview Bounds on, the visual box of a butt-capped stroke on an
open path grew by half the stroke weight past each end of the path, where
a butt cap paints nothing. A 2 pt vertical line set to H: 10 mm in the
Transform panel drew about 9.3 mm long.
The box of an open subpath with butt caps no longer reaches past its
ends. A straight segment's box comes from the four corners of its stroked
rectangle, and a curve's box comes from the stroke at its ends and where
its tangent is square to an axis. Bevel joins, and miter joins the limit
bevels, are measured by the stroked corners, and round joins by the arc
they paint outside the turn, instead of half the weight all round. Round
and projecting caps, arrowheads, closed paths and miter tips measure as
before. Two cases can still measure larger than the stroke paints: a
curve that bends more tightly than half the weight, and a butt-dashed
path whose first or last dash is a gap, which is measured to the path's
ends.
A horizontal or vertical butt line now measures one stroke weight less
along its length in W or H, and Align places it by its end points. A
slanted line's box shrinks by less: the stroke's corners still reach
past the end points across the line. object.setBounds measures as drawn,
after each scale it tries, a butt-capped open path with a segment at a
slant, symbol instances' art included.
With anchors picked with Direct Selection, Edit > Cut removed only the
segments between them, so the picked anchors stayed in the path. Cut now
removes picked anchors and the segments attached to them from a path or
a compound path's member, as Clear does. Picked segments still lose only
those segments. When a path has picked segments, Copy and Cut leave out
anchors picked on its other contours, as Clear does.

An embedded Type 1 font's eexec part is decrypted and its charstrings read,
so its glyphs and widths are used instead of the installed or fallback
font's. Codes are decoded through the font's Encoding, so fonts that place
glyphs at low codes no longer lose their type.
Adds composefont, the CIDInit and FontSetInit procedure sets and the CMap
operators, so EPS with CID-keyed fonts (as pdftops -level3 writes) opens.
Type 0 fonts with FMapType 9 decode their codes through the CMap's codespace
ranges and CID mappings, and the Identity CMaps are predefined.
The fuzz test from #6223 passes grant to plugin.install, which a plain
session now refuses, so its cases stopped installing the module. The
docs line for a filter that lists inputs now says installing it needs a
person's approval.
Only a Stroke Style filter's widths written as one centered array come in as the drawn look. A Stroke Offset stroke and widths written for each side stay live with their profile.
plugin.install refuses grant from a request unless the session was started
to allow it, so the test from main that installs with grant turns that on.
The install dialog's comment names OK's Sense::click.
