A CMYK document (file.new {colorMode: "cmyk"}, Document::new_with_mode)
starts with CMYK default swatches (default_swatches(model)), and RGB
colours and gradient stops applied to it are stored as CMYK (Gray stays
Gray) unless paint.setFill/setStroke get keepModel; the Color panel keeps
the model picked on its sliders. RGB documents keep colours as given.
Harmonies and Color Guide variations keep the base colour's model, Recolor
Artwork the replaced colour's, and Edit Colors blends between models take
the document's, through a shared Color::in_model / keep_model.

New Document.page_isolate / page_knockout, set by
transparency.togglePageIsolatedBlending / togglePageKnockoutGroup {value?}
(one undo step each, saved with the document, reported by
transparency.info) and the Transparency panel menu's check items. The page
renders as an isolated group (top-level blend modes no longer blend with
what lies under the page) and/or a knockout group whose elements are the
layers (neutral layers pass their objects through). PDF and SVG wrap the
page content in an isolated group and write page knockout as soft masks.

The eyedropper (`appearance.copyFrom`), `graphicStyle.new` and `graphicStyle.apply` move placed gradients so they
sit at the same place relative to each target's bounds (type: its layout box in text space) instead of where the
source had them; the paint defaults take the gradient unplaced, so new art fits it. Model: `GradientGeom::rebase`
/ `GradientPaint::rebase` (color), `Appearance::rebase_gradients` (strokes relative to their inflated boxes) and
`GraphicStyle::unit_box`: new styles store placed gradients in unit-box space; styles from older files keep
document coordinates and apply as before.

New Node.knockout_shape (transparency.set / object.setProps knockoutShape,
reported by transparency.info). In a knockout group such an object knocks
out only as much as its opacity and mask let through (a 50% object knocks
out 50%); otherwise its full coverage knocks out. The renderer, PDF and
SVG masks honour it, and the panel's checkbox is now live.

Knockout Group is now Knockout {Neutral, Off, On} (old files' true loads as
On, false as Neutral). In a knockout group each child erases what the
children below it drew where it paints, then adds itself, so it composites
against the group's backdrop; neutral plain groups pass their children
through to the enclosing knockout group. transparency.set / object.setProps
take knockout "on"|"off"|"neutral"|bool; transparency.info reports the
state. PDF and SVG write knockout groups as nested soft masks with the same
look (PDF warns); the Transparency panel has a tri-state checkbox.

New commands: swatch.addUsedColors {selection?, global?} adds a swatch for
each colour the art uses that no solid swatch has (optionally global, the
art linking to them); swatch.unused lists the swatches nothing uses (links,
colours, gradients and patterns in art, symbols, pattern tiles and graphic
styles count); swatch.merge keeps the first colour and relinks the others'
art; swatch.ungroup and swatch.sortByKind (process, spot, gradients,
patterns). Each edit is one undo step; the panel menu items are enabled.
Document::visit_paints walks every paint of a document.

Engine: effect.move {from, to, fromItem?, toItem?, copy?}; appearance.showAllHidden;
appearance.duplicateItem takes to? and indices?; appearance.removeItem takes indices?;
Appearance::has_hidden/show_all. UI: effect.dialog takes index? (edit in place via
effect.setParams) and opens the effectExists question for an effect already in the list.

Styles now store the object's opacity, blend mode, isolate and knockout and apply them.
New Graphic Style from a group without its own paint captures its topmost object's
appearance, and from type its characters' fill and stroke. Names are made unique.
graphicStyle.apply takes ids and add (Alt-click in the panel adds the style on top of the
existing appearance). graphicStyle.list reports every style. Applying links objects to a
stable style id (Node.graphic_style), which the management commands build on.

An appearance is basic with at most one fill and one stroke, none hidden or
with its own opacity, blend mode or effects, and no object effects; Reduce
to Basic keeps the topmost visible fill and stroke. The Layers panel fills
an object's target circle for any non-default transparency (blend mode,
isolation, knockout or an opacity mask: Node::has_default_transparency).
A multi-selection whose objects differ shows "Mixed Appearances" with no
rows. The Appearance panel's object row and the Control bar name the
selection from one source, and type objects are "Type". Expand Appearance
is only in the Object menu. Clear Appearance also resets the object's
opacity and blend mode. Tests cover addFill/addStroke, setItem/removeItem,
clear, reduceToBasic and graphicStyle.apply.

swatch.new takes mode and group; swatch.newGroup takes fromArtwork, toGlobal and includeTints and reports the group's swatches and the paints it linked. Adds a shared radio widget and the ui.newSwatch / ui.newColorGroup openers.

Clip groups clip by compound paths (with their holes), even-odd paths, text
outlines and groups (the union of their members) on screen, in raster
export, in SVG and in PDF alike, through one shared region:
Node::clip_outline (the model walk) and effects::clip_outline (text
outlined, several shapes united), cached per clipping path in the
renderer. Nothing to clip by hides the clipped art everywhere, and clicks
hit a clip group only inside its clipping region. Make Clipping Mask takes
a compound path or text object on top (it loses its paint) and Release
gives it back unchanged in kind.

Clicking an Opacity row in the Appearance panel (a fill's or stroke's, or
the object's) opens a popup with the same blend-mode dropdown, opacity
field and slider as the Transparency panel (widgets::opacity_blend), and
edits that item through transparency.set. The blend-mode dropdown draws a
separator between the BlendMode::group() groups, also for the blend-mode
parameters of effect dialogs and inline effect editors. Fills and strokes
of type objects composite with their own opacity and blend mode.

Hollow heads draw as rings (the open arrow as a chevron) and closed paths get
no heads. The stroke stops under each head, so it never shows through a hollow
head or past the tip; stroke.set {arrowAlign: "extend"|"tip"} chooses whether
the tip extends past the end point (default) or sits on it with the stroke
shortened. Line and heads share one paint box (a gradient runs on into the
head) and take the stroke and object opacity once, as one layer on the canvas
and one group in PDF. StrokeLayer.arrow_align is a new defaulted field, so
older files load unchanged. The Stroke panel's Align buttons get two generated
icons and are disabled when the stroke has no head.

Arrowheads, width-profile outlines and dashed line outlines now come from
vectorcraft_effects::stroke (stroke_pieces, line_outline, width_outline), used by
the canvas and PDF export alike; the renderer caches profile outlines too. Width
profiles are a doc-level catalogue (WidthProfile::PRESETS, preset, preset_id,
id_of) shared by stroke.set and the Stroke panel; stroke.set rejects unknown
profile ids and its params doc lists the arrowhead names.

While a mask is edited, the Transparency panel and its commands act on the
masked object (Release leaves editing first). Mask commands and
transparency.set take ids and work without a selection; Make Opacity Mask
with one object adds an empty mask and enters editing. Opacity is 0..100 in
every command. transparency.info reports the panel's values with null for
mixed ones, shown blank. Saves and exports never include the editing layer
(Document::without_edit_modes; mask_edit is not serialized).

A dash pattern with a negative value (for example [-5, 3], from `stroke.set` or a PDF `d`
operator) was handed to the dasher whenever any value was positive. When the values sum to zero
or less the dasher never advances, so rendering the document hung forever (canvas, screenshot,
PNG/JPEG export, `vectorcraft-cli convert`).
PDF (32000-1 §8.4.3.6) and SVG (`stroke-dasharray`) both define such a pattern as invalid and the
stroke as solid. `Dash::is_dashed` now says whether a pattern draws dashes (finite, non-negative,
not all zero), and the renderer, the width-profile outline, the SVG and PDF exporters and the PDF
importer use it, so an invalid pattern is drawn, written and read back as a solid stroke everywhere
(the PDF exporter used to clamp negatives to 0, writing zero-length dashes).

Clicking a fill or stroke row runs appearance.setActiveItem; the toolbar,
Control bar and Properties proxies and the Color, Swatches, Gradient,
Stroke and Transparency panels show and edit that item, and the gradient
tool's annotator follows it. paint.setFill/setStroke, stroke.set/
setAdvanced, paint.editGradient/setGradientGeom and transparency.set take
item (omitted: the active item, null: the top one). Item edits and the
appearance.* commands address the selected objects' own stacks, so a
group's own fills no longer leak into its contents. Any selection change
clears the active item.

Document::swatches_iter/_mut, swatch_mut, swatch_group_of, remove_swatch and a copy-on-write
walk over linked solid paints (map_solid_paints) cover every colour group.
