- After a fill drag, the Live Paint Bucket stores the release point, so the
cursor swatch preview shows there instead of where the pointer last moved
before the press.
- Arrow nudges and Alt+arrow type spacing read Shift and Alt from the key
press, as the tool keys do, so a modifier released within the same frame
still makes a 10 pt nudge, a copy, or a spacing step.
- tool.setOption accepts cursorSwatchPreview for the Live Paint Bucket and
refuses a value that is not true or false.
The check after each edit that the selected objects stay within the
canvas measured the whole of every selected path. Moving one anchor of
a 10,000-anchor path measured all 9,999 segments. A path or compound
path whose anchors and handles are all finite and inside the canvas
range now passes without being measured, because its curves stay inside
their control points. A path with a point outside that range is still
measured, so the check accepts and refuses the same edits as before.
path.moveAnchor to the point the anchor is already at, and
path.setHandle to the point the handle is already at, now leave the
document as it is and record no undo step.
vectorcraft_geom::path::measured_segments counts the segments that
PathData::bounds measures, and the new engine tests use it.
Dynamic Text, Dynamic Text Presets, Center on Top and Center on
Bottom, and Area Type Options with Block on checked each object for a
thread with its own search of the document's threads. A selection of
many objects in a document with many threads repeated that search for
each object, in the commands' enabled checks as well as when they ran.
The checks now build one lookup from frame to thread for the whole
selection. An object counts as threaded by the first thread that lists
it, as before, so the commands refuse the same frames, list them in the
same order and leave the document and the undo history as they were.
Select > Start Global Edit was enabled for any plain group, so a group
holding type, an image or nothing was offered in the Select menu and the
Properties panel's Quick Actions, the Control bar showed its Global Edit
Options, and starting then refused it. The enabled check now applies the
same support check as starting to every selected object, a group's
contents included.
The answer is kept per document revision and selected object, so the
Control bar, which asks every frame, walks a group once per change.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md (a new line; the existing
Global Edit line no longer says the menu item checks only for a group).
Delete Artboards, Delete Empty Artboards and Cut Artboard removed the
chosen artboards one at a time, walking every ruler guide and the layer
tree once per artboard. They now share one helper that removes the
artboards in one walk and their guides in one more, leaving the same
artboards, guides and selected guides as before.
Empty Artboards in Artwork Cleanup had its own copy of the one-pass
removal. It now calls the same helper, and its test reads that helper's
walk counter.
When a recovery copy could not be written, the status bar said only
"Couldn't save recovery data: <error>", and a copy that failed on the
background worker showed as "Saving recovery data for <title> failed:
<error>". Neither said which folder was in use or how to pick another.
The message keeps the error text (and the document's title when one
copy fails), then names the folder copies go to, says whether it is
the default recovery folder or the folder set in Preferences, and
names the setting that picks another folder: Preferences → File
Handling → Data Recovery → Folder (recoveryFolder). The recovery code
writes the same line to the log. The folder is the one in use when the
round started, so a preference changed while a copy runs does not
change the folder the message names.
A copy that fails now reports its own message, so the job's result is
Ok rather than an error, and the job no longer adds "<label> failed:
<error>" over it. A store the host installed (browser storage) has no
folder to name: its failed copy shows "Saving recovery data for
<title> failed: <error>", as a copy on the worker did before, also
when the copy was written without the worker.
- engine: recovery::folder returns the folder in use and whether the
recoveryFolder preference names it; recovery::store uses it.
- Four @msg rows in each complete-message catalog, and in the bg, bs,
da and id catalogs, which translate the old message.
- Control replies to a client confined to read roots show a recovery
folder outside them, and the paths under it, by the folder's name, as
they already show other paths outside the roots. That covers the
folder in use and the last eight folders a failure message named.
- docs/target-app-parity.md: a line next to the Data Recovery Folder
preference.
object.setLiveShape was in params::UNCHECKED, so a key it does not read,
such as `path`, ran the command with the key ignored. Its description
names every key it reads, so it now goes through check_keys like other
commands, for MCP, scripts and command.batch steps. Each of `items` takes
`id` and `corners` alone; another key is refused as
`items[0].corner`, with the nearest accepted key. Saved steps still
replay leniently.
A `sides` that is not a whole number from 3 to 1000 (2.5, -1, 2, 1001)
and a negative `radius` are now errors naming the key, and leave the
document and its undo history as they were; a radius of 0 still
removes rounding. The Transform panel's Sides field takes 3 to 1000,
the Corners dialog's radius field stops at 0, and the panels' corner
radius fields send 0 for a negative value typed in.
Offset Path took each selected path in turn, so offsetting many paths, or a
group of many paths, used one CPU. It now reads the selected paths first,
works out their offsets on as many threads as the computer has logical CPUs
(one thread on the web and for a single path), and then makes the new
objects one after another in the selection's order on the editing thread.
The new objects, their ids, their stacking, the selection, the messages and
the undo step are the same as before. When several paths fail, the error is
the one for the first of them in the selection's order, and the paths after
a failure that have not started yet are skipped.
Live Paint Bucket Options gets a Cursor Swatch Preview checkbox (on at
first, saved with the other options). With the Bucket selected, Left and
Right set the active fill, or the stroke when the Stroke proxy is in
front, to the color swatch before or after it in the Swatches panel,
wrapping around at the ends, with the preview on or off. The selected art
keeps its paint. The preview shows the active paint above the pointer
between the swatches before and after it; a color that is no swatch shows
alone until Right picks the first swatch or Left the last, and a paint
that is not a solid color shows no chip. The chips hide during a fill
drag and while Alt samples with the eyedropper. The fill and the stroke
each remember the swatch picked for them, so swatches of the same color
are each reached in turn.
The Bucket and the Shape Builder now take the arrows for swatches only
without Shift, Alt or Cmd/Ctrl, judged by the modifiers held when the key
went down, so modified arrows keep their shortcuts
(Tool::claims_key_with, Session::tool_claims_key_with).

In a PDF without a standard, the warning for a page longer than 14,400 pt
written with a UserUnit above 1 now ends with "turn on Write pages longer
than 200 in at full size in points". The warning already said that apps
ignoring UserUnit show such a page smaller; it now names the Save PDF
option that writes the page at its size in points instead. PDF/A files,
which keep the UserUnit with the option on, and .ai saves, whose options
do not have it, keep the warning as it was.
The longer message has a row in every complete-message catalog. The
params text of document.exportPdf, docs/mcp.md and the evidence line in
docs/target-app-parity.md describe it.
object.distort warped the anchors of paths, groups, compound paths and
clip groups but left their bounding-box angle as it was, so a rotated
path kept its old box after a warp and an upright one stayed square to
the page however far the warp tilted it. Text, images and symbol
instances already took the angle of the warp's affine approximation.
- Each path, group, compound path and clip group now takes the angle
the warp turns its x axis to at its own center before the warp, the
members of a warped group and the art of a linked opacity mask each
at their own. An unlinked mask's art keeps its angle. Mirroring keeps
the nearer angle and a collapsing warp keeps the old one. Reset
Bounding Box squares the boxes again.
- Each subtree's bounds are measured once while it is warped.
- Corners that equal the corners of the box being warped change
nothing and add no undo step.

When a Smooth tool drag refits the stretch at the first or last anchor
of an open path, the curve there now leaves or arrives along the
smoothed path within the tool's reach instead of along the first or
last segment, so a jagged end no longer keeps its jag. The end point
stays where it is. An end where the smoothed path turns back by 90
degrees or more keeps its segment's direction, and a stretch that ends
inside the path keeps the direction of the part outside the drag.
- pathops: SimplifyOptions gains free_start and free_end, off by
default; closed subpaths and simplify_part ignore them, so Simplify
and Object > Path > Smooth give the same output as before.
- engine: path.smoothRegion sets them for the ends of an open path
that a run's refit reaches.

The panel showed the values Document Info makes in English in every
language. It now shows the Units, the Raster Effects resolution, each
font's file, substitution and embedding permission, each image's size
and linked file, each Repeat object's kind and counts (in the
language's plural forms) and gradients named by their kind in the
interface language. Font, face, file and swatch names stay as they
are, a gradient swatch named like a kind included.
document.info keeps its English rows and adds the values the panel
builds them from: document.unitId, fontDetails, imageObjects and a
kinds list on each gradientObjects entry. Save… and Package's report
stay in English.
A fill or stroke row that the Appearance commands gave a graph label, its
object opacity, and the characters the Eyedropper gave it lasted only
until the graph was drawn again: the graph stored nothing for a label's
rows, and the Eyedropper's character attributes were not stored.
- The graph keeps, for value axis numbers, category labels and legend
labels, the paint, weight, opacity and blend mode of a label's topmost
visible fill and stroke row, their order and place relative to the
Characters row, and the label's object opacity and blend mode
(labelStyles valuesRows, categoriesRows, legendRows). Every label of
the kind gets those rows when the graph is drawn again, with a placed
gradient fitted to each label.
- Every appearance.* command stores them, and so do graphicStyle.apply
and redefine and the paint, stroke, gradient and transparency edits
aimed at a row, even when the label already showed them.
transparency.set without a row and object.setProps store only the
object opacity and blend mode. With several labels of a kind, the last
one edited wins.
- appearance.copyFrom onto all of a label's text stores the character
attributes it applied and, from type, the paragraph attributes; a
transparency pick stores the object opacity and blend mode, and
append stores the rows.
- paint.setFill and paint.setStroke store a character fill or stroke
only when the characters take the paint (the whole label, or all of
its text highlighted with the Type tool); aimed at a row, they store
the row.
- Document Color Mode and swatch edits reach the kept rows.

tool.setOption for the Live Paint Bucket, the Live Paint Selection tool
and the Shape Builder used to keep the old value when a switch was not
true or false, a color could not be read or a width or gap length was
not a number, and it set the other values sent with it. It also took
the RGB of a color with an alpha part, and the Shape Builder took any
`pickColorFrom` other than `swatches` as `artwork` and any `selection`
other than `straightLine` as `freeform`.
The command now checks every value before it sets any, whether the tool
is chosen or not: a switch must be true or false, a highlight color
must be an RGB color or a layer color's name without an alpha part, a
width or gap length must be a number, `pickColorFrom` and `selection`
must be one of their names, and an option the tool does not have is an
error. The error names the option, and nothing is set or saved. A width
outside 1 to 20 and a gap length outside 0 to 72 are still clamped, and
saved settings with an invalid value still load.
