A Scatter brush in a .ai or EPS file's editing data always came into the Brushes panel keeping its art's colors. A Scatter brush whose last 15 numbers start with 1 now opens in Tints, and one whose numbers start with 0 keeps its art's colors. Other values are not read and keep the art's colors. The field before the art's name does not decide it: an object whose first field is 1 is read by its 15 numbers, and a Scatter object with 8 numbers is still left out. A brush's art usually comes in a group after its frame, an unpainted rectangle around the art. The reader kept that rectangle as part of the brush's art. It now leaves out a frame at the art's bounds (within 1/1000 pt): an unnamed, unpainted rectangle with its four corners in order, closed, or open with its first corner again at the end, and no settings of its own (shown, unlocked, at full opacity in Normal, with no effects, note or other attributes). A wider frame stays in the art, and so do a path that crosses the corners, an open path along three sides and a rectangle with settings of its own. A group left with one object becomes that object, unless it has a state or look of its own (hidden, locked, isolated, knockout, an opacity, a blend mode, a name, a mask, a note or another setting, or an appearance); then it stays a group without the frame. The rule applies to every brush art section. Existing files with such brushes now open with Tints and without the extra frame path in the brush's art. With an exact frame, the pieces that a Scatter or Art brush draws along a path stay where they were. The Scatter, Art and Pattern brush colorization options, Tints among them, are described on pages 281-282 of https://web.archive.org/web/20210601162814/https://helpx.adobe.com/pdf/illustrator_reference.pdf#page=281 Tests cover Scatter brushes whose numbers start with 1 and 0, with a first field of 1 and 2, and an 8-number object. They cover frames kept or left out (exact, wider, open, filled, named, crossing the corners, along three sides, with a note, Show Center or hidden), a group's own state and note kept, and the pieces a Scatter and an Art brush draw along a path with and without the frame. The import fuzz test reads brush art after frames of any corners and paint.
