 - **2026-10-12** · On screen, blend modes blend with the objects below and not with the paper, as in InDesign and in PDF export: a Color Dodge or Screen object over blank paper shows as it is. No readiness percentage change.
 - **2026-10-12** · A gradient feather on a group fades the group as one, on screen and in PDF. Before, the screen ignored it, and PDF masked the group with a box of zero size because a group has no path of its own. No readiness percentage change.
 - **2026-10-12** · In a CMYK transparency blend space (print documents), blend modes blend in CMYK on screen as in InDesign. Color Dodge with 100% K text turns coloured areas under it white and leaves the paper alone, where RGB blending changed almost nothing. PDF export already did this. No readiness percentage change.
+- **2026-10-11** · Moving a sheared and rotated text frame no longer leaves trails of text behind: canvas repaints cover the frame's whole text box, not just its outline. No readiness percentage change.
 - **2026-10-12** · Words in capitals hyphenate like capitalized words (FERRUM COM-MODI), as in InDesign; Hyphenate Capitalized Words off keeps them whole. No readiness percentage change.
 - **2026-10-12** · Load Swatches refuses an `.ase` file with more than 100,000 colors, and `swatch.load` merges a file of 100,000 colors in under 0.1 s (it took 9.6 s of CPU in a test build). No readiness percentage change.
