Chris Cicchino's "Adobe InDesign – Page Tool and Liquid Layout" (0:42,
2:06) holds Option and drags a page in the Pages panel to copy it,
drags a page onto the New Page button to duplicate it ("click and drag
onto my plus sign I can duplicate that"), and resizes pages; InDesign's
panel also has an Edit page size button. DesignCraft's panel only moved
pages on drag, had no Edit page size button, and duplicating a page gave
the copy the size of the page before it (not its own) without its
liquid rule or guides. A page of its own size also drew its thumbnail
at the document's scale, over the panel's footer.
- Pages panel: Alt-drag copies the page to where it's dropped; a page
dropped on Create new page is duplicated at the end of the document;
Edit page size lists the presets (in the page's orientation) and
Custom Page Size…; InDesign's tooltips (Create new page, Delete
selected pages).
- Thumbnails share one scale (the document's page size, smaller when a
taller page would pass 1.8 times the usual height); rows fit their
spread's tallest page.
- engine: layout.pages.duplicateSpread copies the pages' size, margins,
columns, guides and liquid rule, takes `atEnd`, and returns the copy's
first page.

table.options added as many rows as the requested header and footer
counts needed, without a limit. A large number typed into the Table
panel's Header Rows field froze the app and exhausted memory. Both
counts are now capped at 100, the limit table.insert already has.
The cross-reference index composed its destination stories through
the cache. One with a running header asked for the running-header
index, which composed the story holding the cross-reference, which
asked for the cross-reference index again: the stack overflowed and
the app aborted. Destination stories with a running header are now
composed without it, like those with cross-references already were.
File times are whole seconds (as in Data Merge's fingerprint), so a
same-size change saved within the same second as the last check kept
both size and time, and the Links panel said OK. A size and time are now
only remembered (on place, update, relink, and in the session's check
cache) once the file has been unchanged for two seconds; a file changed
more recently is checked by content on each poll. Found by the Update
Link dialog test, which rewrites a file within the same second; the
polling test now also changes a file twice in one second.

The Links panel lists links about twice a second, and each listing
hashed every linked text file. A linked text file now also remembers
its modification time (as Data Merge does for its source, through the
same size-and-time fingerprint): while size and time match, it isn't
read. A different size is Modified without reading. When only the time
changed, the content hash still decides (a file saved or synced again
without changes stays OK), and the session remembers that check by
size and time, so the next poll doesn't read the file again. Update and
Relink record the size and time from before their read. Test: polls of
an unchanged file don't read it (it is made unreadable), a touched but
unchanged file is read once and stays OK, a changed file is Modified.

InDesign's Effects dialog sets an Inner Glow's blend Mode (Screen by
default) and Technique (Softer or Precise), and a Basic Feather's Choke
and Corners (Sharp, Rounded, Diffused). LYH Studio episode 14 shows them
at 12:05–12:20 (Screen 75 %, Softer, 0.25 in; 0.0625 in, Diffused).
- doc: InnerGlow.mode and .technique (GlowTechnique), Effects.
feather_options (FeatherOptions: choke %, FeatherCorners), with
InDesign's defaults; old documents read as before.
- render: the glow uses its mode; Precise keeps it nearer the edge; the
feather's choke shortens the fade, Sharp and Rounded corners follow
the shape more tightly or softly than Diffused (unchanged, so the
goldens stay).
- render fix: an inner glow's (and a bevel's) blend mode was applied
inside the clip layer, against its empty backdrop, so Screen and
Multiply acted as Normal; the blend layer now wraps the finished edge
and mixes with the object below.
- engine: choke clamped to 0–100; the params documented.
- Effects dialog: Mode and Technique on Inner Glow; Choke and Corners on
Basic Feather; strings translated.
Builds on #643 (the Effects dialog).
