swatch.library.save replied with the number of solid colors and
gradients it was asked to save, including the gradients the format
leaves out. For a new document saved as .ase, count was 50 and the file
held 46 colors. The .gpl and .ase writers keep solid colors only, and
the CSS writer leaves freeform gradients out.
count is now the number of swatches written. The new
PaletteFormat::holds returns whether a file of a format keeps a swatch
with a given paint, and swatch.library.save counts the swatches for
which it returns true. The reply has the same fields as before.
Tests: after a freeform gradient is added to a new document's swatches,
the test checks that count has these values: 51 for .vcswatches, 46 for
.gpl and .ase, and 50 for CSS. Each file holds that many swatches.

Object › Lock › All Artwork Above and Object › Hide › All Artwork Above
lock or hide the objects that are above the selection in its layer and
overlap it. Such an object can be a group or a sublayer that holds
another selected object. The commands left that object selected, the
key object included. Align then moved the locked object, or aligned
the other selected objects to the hidden key object. object.lock and
object.hide clear the selection, and layer.setProps, which the Layers
panel's eye and lock columns run, deselects what it hides or locks.
Both commands now deselect every selected object that is locked or
hidden after the command, as layer.setProps does, and clear the key
object when it is one of them. Undo selects the objects again and
restores the key object.
Docs: the object.lock.above and object.hide.above params text,
docs/target-app-parity.md.
object.align, object.distribute and object.distributeSpacing moved
objects without their pattern tiles, whatever General › Transform
Pattern Tiles was set to. They now follow the preference as Move,
Nudge and the Selection tool do: with it on, pattern fills and strokes
move with the art. Each also takes a `patterns` param for one call, as
the transforms do. When the art uses a pattern, the journal records the
choice, and a recorded action plays back with it.
Docs: docs/mcp.md (transformPatternTiles), docs/target-app-parity.md.
object.setProps with visible: false or locked: true left the objects
it hid or locked selected, the key object included, and kept selected
objects inside a group or layer it hid or locked. Align then moved a
locked object, and aligned the other objects to a hidden key object.
object.lock and object.hide clear the selection, and layer.setProps,
which the Layers panel's eye and lock columns run, deselects what it
hides or locks.
After a call with visible: false or locked: true, object.setProps now
deselects every selected object that is then hidden or locked, as
layer.setProps does: the selected objects it hides or locks, selected
objects inside them, and selected objects that were hidden or locked
before the call. It clears the key object when the key is one of
them. Undo selects them again and restores the key object. A call
with visible: false or locked: true that changes nothing records no
undo step and still deselects them, as object.lock and object.hide
do. A call that sets neither, such as an opacity change from the
Control bar or the Transparency panel, leaves the selection as it is.
Docs: the object.setProps params text, docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
object.align with neither horizontal nor vertical returned success
and moved nothing. The command palette, and a key bound to it in
Keyboard Shortcuts, run it with no params. It now returns
"give horizontal or vertical", as object.distribute already did.
An action recorded while Align ran from the palette or a bound key
contains an object.align step with no params. Playing that action now
fails at that step, and command.batch rolls back the whole action.
Values outside a parameter's choices were read as another choice or
ignored. Align ignored an unknown horizontal or vertical and aligned
to the selection for an unknown to value. Distribute read an unknown
direction as center. Distribute Spacing and Shear read any axis other
than "vertical" as horizontal, and Reflect read any axis other than
"horizontal" or a number as vertical. A bounds or to value that was
not a string fell back to the default, and a spacing that was not a
number gave automatic spacing. The commands now return an error that
names such a value, before they move anything or record an undo
step. When a to, bounds, axis or spacing value is missing or null,
the command uses the parameter's default: Distribute Spacing without
an axis spaces the objects horizontally.
The run_command description and docs/mcp.md showed object.align with
an align param it does not have; they now use horizontal. The new
status-bar messages have rows in the de, es, fr, it, ja, ru and uk
catalogs.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
Align to Artboard aligned the selection to the artboard under its
center, or to the first artboard when no artboard was under the
center. A press with a selection tool inside an artboard makes that
artboard the active one (#693). With the Selection tool, a
Shift-click on an empty spot inside an artboard also makes it active
and keeps the selection. Align to Artboard did not use the active
artboard.
object.align takes artboard, a 0-based artboard index, and uses it
when its to param is "artboard". The app passes its active artboard,
the one the Artboards panel highlights, to each object.align it runs
that names none, as it does for Paste in Place, Paste in Front, Paste
in Back (#693) and Select › All on Active Artboard (#1006). MCP calls
in remote mode also get it. Without artboard (headless MCP and the
CLI), or with an index the document doesn't have, object.align aligns
to the artboard under the center of the selection, or to the first
artboard when no artboard is under the center.
command.batch takes artboard too, and the app passes it the active
artboard. The batch passes it on to each step of these five commands
that names none, when the step runs. When the document a step runs in
has no artboard at that index (for example, after an earlier step
deleted the active artboard when it was the last one), the step gets
that document's last artboard. A step in a document that an earlier
step opened, created or switched to gets the same index, not that
document's own active artboard.
With Align to Selection, one selected object aligned from the Align
panel, the Control bar or the Properties panel is aligned to the
active artboard too, unless it is the key object.
Recorded actions leave out the artboard that the app passes to these
commands and to the batch. The Actions panel plays an action as a
batch. Its Align to Artboard, All on Active Artboard and in-place
paste steps that name no artboard use the artboard that is active
when it plays, and the default Center on Artboard action now centers
on the active artboard. In-place paste steps recorded since #693 and
before this change still paste onto the artboard that was active when
they were recorded.
Tests cover object.align with and without artboard on three artboards;
a Shift-click that makes an artboard active, after which Align to
Artboard aligns to that artboard but keeps an artboard the call names;
a batch that passes its artboard to each step when the step runs,
after a step deletes the last artboard and in a new document; recorded
actions that leave the artboard out; and recorded Align to Artboard
and Paste in Place steps and the default Center on Artboard action,
which play on the artboard that is active when they play.
Docs: docs/mcp.md (Align to Artboard), docs/target-app-parity.md.
Selecting two objects, clicking one to make it the key object and then
Shift-clicking the other left the remaining object as the key. The
canvas still drew that object with the thick key-object outline. The
Align panel aligned the object to itself, so the object did not move.
The key is now cleared after any change that leaves no other selected
object outside it, such as a Shift-click, or hiding or deleting the
other object's row in the Layers panel. On a single selected object,
or on a group selected with only its own members, select.key sets no
key.
With one object selected and Align to Key Object chosen, the Align
panel, the Control bar and the Properties panel ran object.align with
to: "key", which fails with "no key object" when the selection has no
key. All three now align a single selected object to the artboard
whatever Align To is set to.

With a document open, the desktop app ran File › Place on a swatch or
graphic style library, a Libraries panel file, a presets file or a
plug-in dropped on it. A desktop drop has no position, and without one
the app opened only documents and ran File › Place on every other file.
On the web, the app also ran File › Place on these files when they were
dropped on the canvas. File › Place can't read them, and the drop
failed with "Couldn't place X: ... not a format VectorCraft reads".
VectorcraftApp::drop_target now returns Open for these files, with or
without a drop position, and they open as File › Open opens them:
plug-ins are installed, presets are imported, swatch and graphic style
libraries open in the library panel, and a Libraries panel file is
added to the Libraries panel as a new library. A dropped library,
presets file or plug-in that has a path is added to Open Recent Files
when it opens, as File › Open adds it. io::opens_as returns the kind of
each of these files from its extension, and drop_target and
io::open_bytes both call it. The rules from #472 still apply to
documents, pictures and text. On the web the browser gives no file name
before the drop, so the app still outlines the canvas while such a file
is dragged over it.
Tests: drop_target returns Open for each of the eleven extensions, with
no position and with a position on the canvas. A .gpl dropped through
the desktop drop path loads in the library panel and is added to Open
Recent Files, and a .vclibrary dropped the same way becomes a new
library in the Libraries panel.

Since #1025 reads global colours, more Illustrator EPS files open through
their layers, and for one reported file that gave a worse result than its
page did in 0.8.0:
- the page became the editing data's artboard (344 pt tall) instead of the
file's own bounding box (358 pt), cutting off art reaching above it. An
EPS whose page is its art's box now keeps that page on the layers path
too, as it does on the page path.
- prune_unseen took out text objects the page does draw: a red stroke
stacked over a dark red one differs from it by less than the lightness
margin, so the page looked no different without it. Pruning now weighs
each text object by colour (any of red, green, blue more than 64 apart);
the page check itself still compares by lightness, so colours written
as their CMYK equivalents still match.

stroke.widthPoint.set and .copy read `index` with `as_u64() as usize`:
a malformed index ("bad", -1, 1.5) was taken as no index, so set added a
new point instead of failing, and a huge one wrapped round on wasm32.
They now read it through point_indices, as remove does since #1079:
anything but an index of an existing point is "no such width point".
A null index is still no index (set adds a point).

The theme leaves egui's own checkbox without an outline while inactive,
so an unchecked box was invisible and a checked one a bare tick. #1080
moved Preferences to widgets::check; the remaining ui.checkbox uses
follow: the Properties panel's Snap to Point, Snap to Grid and Scale
Strokes & Effects, Revolve's Keep visible surfaces and Shading, Save
options, Export for Screens, the Variables dialog and plug-in forms.
widgets::check_name shows a document's name (an artboard's, an asset's)
as it is, never translated; the check and radio rows translate their
labels in the public functions, so choice_row draws text as given.

When a .ai's layers can't be read from its editing data yet, it opens as
its PDF part, which lists the artboards as pages; those were laid out in
a row, so a grid of artboards (or any other arrangement) was lost. The
editing data's artboards are now read even then (ai::artboards, as far
as the reader gets) and, when there are as many as pages and of the same
sizes, each page goes where its artboard is, with the art on it (the art
of a page: the objects mostly on it, else nearest it). Otherwise the
pages stay in a row as before.

Align and Distribute Spacing move a selected compound path or group as
one object, and they found the key object only when its own id was
among the objects they move. When the key was inside a compound path
or a selected group, aligning to the key moved that compound path or
group like any other object, and the key moved with it. In that case,
Distribute Spacing with a spacing held the first object still instead
of the key.
The key object can end up inside a selected group or a compound path.
Dragging its row into a group in the Layers panel (layer.move) keeps
the selection and the key. A Selection-tool Shift-click on that group,
when it is unselected and directly in a layer, then adds it to the
selection (select.toggle) and keeps the key. Other ways of adding the
group keep the key as well: a Shift-click in the Layers panel's
selection column or on the group's target circle, a Group Selection
click that hits the key itself, select.add, and select.anchors or
select.anchorsMany in add or toggle mode. In isolation mode, a
Selection-tool click on one of several selected objects in the
isolated group makes that object the key. In an isolated compound
path, the same click on the outline of a selected member makes that
member the key.
Align to the key object and Distribute Spacing with a spacing now keep
in place the selected object that is the key or contains it. Both
commands look for that object among the key and its ancestors, so a
group around the key's group also stays in place. Aligning to the key
still lines the others up with the key's own bounds.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md.
arc raised its second angle by 2π in a loop until it was no longer
below the first, and arcn lowered it the same way. For an angle of
1e18 degrees that loop takes about 3e15 steps: vectorcraft-cli info
was still reading an EPS file with "newpath 100 100 50 1e18 0 arc
stroke" when "timeout 20" stopped it. For 1e308 the loop never ends:
from 2^56 radians (about 4.1e18 degrees) up, adding 2π leaves a double
unchanged. The import fuzz test eps_hostile_programs_never_panic builds
programs from tokens that include arc, arcn, 1e308 and 1e15.
arc now raises the second angle by multiples of 360 until it is at
least the first, and arcn lowers it until it is at most the first, as
the PostScript Language Reference defines them. The code works out both
sweeps from the remainders of the two angles after whole turns, and it
places the first endpoint at the remainder of the first angle. Ordinary
angles give the same arcs as before, apart from rounding in the last
digits. One case changes: when raising (arc) or lowering (arcn) the
second angle by whole turns makes it equal to the first, as in
60 -300 arc or -60 300 arcn, rounding sometimes made the old loop add
another turn and draw a full circle. Those arcs are now empty, as the
PostScript Language Reference defines them.
Tests: 1e18 0 arc, 1e308 0 arc, 0 1e18 arcn and 0 1e308 arcn draw the
arc between the angles' remainders and leave the current point at the
second angle. The test reads each program on a thread of its own and
fails when no result arrives within 20 seconds.
The sweeps `every_command_with_junk_params` and
`fuzzed_calls_keep_documents_serializable` skipped every case that set
`object.scale`'s `sx`, `object.transformEach`'s `scaleH` or `scaleV`,
`object.distributeSpacing`'s `spacing`, or `artboard.setProps`'s `x`,
`y`, `width` or `height`. The comment above `KNOWN_BUGS`, the list of
those (command, param) pairs, referred to `#[ignore]`d repro tests, but
`bug_huge_transform_makes_document_unloadable` and
`bug_artboard_huge_props_break_svg` have no `#[ignore]` and run with the
other tests. Since 42df20ca, the commit that added the list,
`Session::edit` returns an error when an edit leaves an artboard or a
selected object with coordinates that are not finite or exceed
`MAX_COORD`, and `object.transformEach` clamps `scaleH` and `scaleV`.
The list and its two checks are removed, so both sweeps run those
cases.
A malformed id gets the existing object-id message, and a listed anchor
that is not a corner the existing "give corners of the path" one, so
only the malformed-list message is new (translated in every catalog
that covers messages).

crates/text/build.rs (craft_fonts.rs) and crates/ui-egui/build.rs (credits.rs) wrote their
output on every run. Where cargo's recorded times lose their sub-second part (an ecryptfs home
directory, as Mint and Ubuntu offer at install), a file written just before its crate compiles
reads as newer than that compile, so the next build compiled the crate and everything above it
a second time: a full app rebuild for nothing after any build-script rerun. Unchanged output is
now left alone.

A .ai or PDF whose spot colours are defined in Lab opened them wrong:
- the PDF part gives such an ink an ICC Lab profile as its alternate
space ([/ICCBased profile], 3 components), which was read as RGB, so
the Lab values were clamped into wildly wrong colours (PANTONE 249 C
came in yellow). A profile whose Alternate is [/Lab ...], or whose
header names the Lab data colour space, is now read as Lab;
- the editing data writes them as `c m y k L a b (name) tint 2 Xx`,
type 2 being Lab, and only the CMYK equivalent was read. Type 2 now
gives the Lab colour, in the swatches and on the art.

These Object commands edited the document even when nothing changed, so
the call recorded an undo step, emptied Redo and marked the document
modified:
- object.align, object.distributeSpacing and object.distribute (three
or more objects) when no object moves. With one object selected,
Object › Align aligns it to its own bounds, so it recorded a step
every time. Calls on objects that were already aligned or evenly
spaced also recorded a step, including objects that an earlier Align
or Distribute left a rounding error away from the position the next
call computes.
- Move, Rotate, Scale, Shear, Transform and Nudge by an identity
transform without a copy, Transform Again after one, Set Bounds with
the current position and size, and a Selection tool drag that ends
where it started.
- Nudge by 0 with anchors direct-selected or with only ruler guides
selected, and Transform with nothing selected or with ids that name
no object, with or without a copy.
- Bring to Front and Bring Forward on objects already in front, Send to
Back and Send Backward on objects already at the back, and Send to
Current Layer on objects already on top of the current layer.
- Ungroup, Release Compound Path and Release Clipping Mask with none of
their objects selected, and Expand Shape with no live shape selected.
- Lock with every selected object already locked, Hide with every one
already hidden, Unlock All with nothing locked and Show All with
nothing hidden.
- object.setProps with the values the objects already have, or with no
object.
- object.setLiveShape with the values the shape already has: a
polygon's sides, angle, radius or equal sides, or a side length that
gives exactly its current radius; an ellipse's pie, including Invert
Pie on a whole ellipse; and a corner radius or kind that the corners
already have.
These commands now return without editing the document, and Align and
Distribute count a move of 1e-9 pt or less on both axes as none. Such a
call records no undo step, keeps the step to redo and leaves the
document unmodified. In these cases Ungroup no longer resets the
selection, and Release Compound Path, Unlock All and Show All no longer
empty it. A Transform with a copy of no object keeps the selection.
Lock and Hide still deselect the objects. A Nudge by 0 no longer
expands a live shape whose anchors are direct-selected. The replies
have the same form as before. An identity transform still sets what
Transform Again repeats. The journal still records each call, so the
Actions panel records it as before.
When every value given to Set Bounds is the current one, it now applies
the identity transform instead of the transform computed from those
values, which can differ from the identity by a rounding error on a
rotated object or with Use Preview Bounds.
When a drag comes back to its start, the identity preview no longer
edits the document. Session::preview now advances the revision when it
undoes the previous preview, so views redraw that drag.
The undo and redo row of docs/mcp.md now notes that many calls that
change nothing record no undo step, so undo after one undoes the step
before it.
A character attribute (Character panel menu with the East Asian options;
`text.setFormat` / `text.setRangeStyle {proportionalMetrics}`), saved only
when on. In horizontal type it applies `palt`; vertical type sets as before
until the vertical shaping change (`vpal`) follows.
Line-end Punctuation Half Width takes nothing more off the punctuation
`palt` re-spaced (the flush opening bracket, consecutive punctuation, the
line-end half width): the segment is shaped once more without `palt`, and
the glyphs whose advance differs are marked. Punctuation the font leaves
full width is trimmed as before. SVG writes `"palt" 1` with the
character's other features.

After scaling 12 pt type 2x, the Character panel still showed 12 pt and
typing 10 pt gave 20 pt type. Character controls and text commands now
work in document points: the size, leading and baseline shift shown and
set are the stored ones times the text's scale along its em height, and
horizontal scale includes the ratio of the transformed em axes. Rotation,
reflection and shear stay in the transform, so text remains editable.
Groups' text counts, keyboard increments use the same units, Shrink
Text to Fit works in document tenths, and a collapsed transform rejects
dimensional edits without touching the document.
text.getRange takes effective: true for the document-space values.
Choosing a fill or stroke (Color panel, Swatches, the proxies) while the
Type tool had a few characters selected painted every run of the type
object. As in Illustrator, it now goes to the selected characters only:
the runs are split at the selection's ends and the paint is placed on
the runs in between, as one undo step; a stroke gets a 1 pt weight
where it had none. With only a caret, or with explicit ids or an item,
paint.setFill/setStroke behave as before.

A .ai in PostScript form went only to the PostScript interpreter, which
stopped on the first operator its missing prolog would define
(`Adobe_packedarray`, `Lb`, `Np`): files from Rhino and other CAD apps name
the procsets without including them.
- Such a program is its own editing data: when it has layers
(`%AI5_BeginLayer`) and no private data, the editing-data reader reads it,
compared with the page when the program runs, from the layers alone when
it can't be run. If the layers can't be read either, the error says why.
- The reader takes the legacy ten-operand `Lb`, ignores flatness `i`, and
uses the bounding box as the page when nothing else says where it is.
- Tests on synthetic files; fuzz fixture and hostile-program layers added.

The editing-data reader stopped on `Xk`/`XK` (global process colours) and
on `p`/`P` (pattern fills), so the file fell back to its PDF part, which has
only the top-level layers.
- `Xk`/`XK` read like `Xx`: a global swatch (not a spot ink), linked at its tint.
- `%AI3_BeginPattern` sections are read by a reader of their own into
pattern swatches (tile from `(name) llx lly urx ury`, art in pattern space);
`p`/`P` fill or stroke with them, placed by the operator's matrix. A pattern
it can't read whole still makes a fill with it unreadable, as before.

- Guides on a hidden or locked layer leave the selection (Selection::prune,
run after every edit and selection change), their Layers rows neither
select nor drag them, and guide.move / guide.remove / guide.setLayer
refuse them; guide.setLayer refuses a locked target layer, as dragged
rows are refused there.
- A new guide goes where new art goes (the current layer, else the top
shown and unlocked one; refused when there is none), so it never lands
on a hidden layer and vanishes.
- Layer commands keep guides with their layers: Duplicate (and Alt-drag
copies of rows) copy a layer's guides onto the copy, Merge Selected and
Flatten Artwork put the merged layers' guides on the merged layer and
Flatten discards a hidden layer's. One shared doc predicate for "the
layer a guide is on"; the deleted-layer cleanup moves into the doc.
- Tests: engine tests for the above and their undo, a doc check that an
old guide reads with no layer and none is written, and a headless
Layers panel test of guide rows (select, drag to another layer, locked).
- Translations for the new message; docs and a ROADMAP progress line.

Guide rows in the Layers panel drag (the selected guides when the row is
one of them) onto any row of another layer, which lights up, and go to

layer, from files saved before guides had layers, go on the top visible,
unlocked layer when a document opens or is reverted.
