 - 2026-10-15: A page scrolled or jumped to shows its paper while its render is on its way, as in InDesign, instead of the black of its shadow.
 - 2026-10-15: Tab, Shift+Tab and Presentation hide the icon column's panel flyout and the classic floating panels too, as InDesign hides floating panels.
 - 2026-10-15: Layers panel: an object's row is renamed with a slow double-click (a second click on the selected row), as in InDesign; a quick double-click only selects it.
+- **2026-10-15** · New Workspace is InDesign's: Name, and Capture › Panel Locations and Menu Customization (the items hidden with Edit › Menus), both on by default; a workspace saved without panel locations leaves the panels where they are. No readiness percentage change.
 - **2026-10-14** · The Type tool draws a new text frame over a locked empty frame, as InDesign does, instead of turning the locked frame into a text frame. No readiness percentage change.
 - **2026-10-14** · 100% black shows as pure black on screen by default, as InDesign's Appearance of Black does out of the box (Display All Blacks as Rich Black); Preferences › Appearance of Black › Display All Blacks Accurately still shows it as the dark grey it prints, and a saved choice is kept. No readiness percentage change.
 - **2026-10-14** · Pathfinder keeps the frontmost object, as InDesign does: a photo placed over shapes and intersected with them shows through the shapes (it was dropped, and the shapes kept their black fill); Add, Exclude Overlap and Minus Back take the front object's fill too, Subtract still keeps the back one. No readiness percentage change.
