no View submenu; G13: gradient Method (Illustrator 30.0): a Method menu in the Gradient panel, Classic or Perceptual (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `method`, saved in the native file only when Perceptual, so older files open as Classic); Perceptual mixes a linear or radial gradient's colours in OKLab, on the canvas and in raster exports, and SVG and PDF exports write it as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes; Classic draws as before; a dithered Perceptual fill takes dither's noise; score and hours unchanged; colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md);

SVG knockout groups of opaque art export without masks) · **Target:** Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.x; public release notes through 30.7, August 2026; Simplify: Object › Path › Simplify opens its slider at the Auto-Simplify level for the selection, previewing that result, instead of at 1 pt; partial-path simplify remains missing; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged. Scores and estimates unchanged; #3147: `vectorcraft-cli run --commands FILE` (or `-`) reads the steps from a JSON file or standard input (an array or JSON Lines, at most 64 MiB and 100,000 steps), among `--cmd` and `--export` in order; errors name the step. Scores and estimates unchanged; G2: Effect › Sketch › Conté Crayon (Foreground Level, Background Level, Texture, Scaling, Relief, Light Direction, Invert; a black crayon in the dark areas and a white one in the light areas on textured mid-grey paper; ranges and defaults unverified VectorCraft choices); measured Photoshop-style filters 57/57, the Effect Gallery remains (4–6 h); Affinity import AF.5: master pages, tables, paragraph formats, shadows, glows, outlines, overlays and embedded documents; Recolor Artwork Edit chips scroll within the available screen height (#3416); small palettes retain their tab height; scores and estimates unchanged; #3515: recent-font groups in font pickers; PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 flattening keeps a CMYK document's inks where it rasterizes, #2160; Blend panel Type and Ramp control step easing with a separate color Shift (#2539); Blend Options retains spacing and orientation; polynomial curves are original approximation; UI chrome: panels dock into any dock group or the icon column by dragging (UI.6), workspaces keep their layout changes (UI.7), dock groups collapse to their tabs by a double-click (UI.8); scores and hours unchanged; Shape Builder Gap Detection shares Live Paint’s spatial gap finder and temporary merge bridges (#2526); Custom is capped at 72 pt in the existing options dialog; Recolor model selection is available through the engine and MCP only (#2520); the dialog retains its existing controls; filter plug-ins read and set effect records and stroke joins, caps and miter limits, G17; the Print dialog's Media list has the Japanese papers: JIS B4 257 × 364 mm, JIS B5 182 × 257 mm and JIS B6 beside the ISO B4/B5, which keep their ISO 216 sizes, and はがき, 往復はがき, 封筒 長形3号/長形4号/角形2号/角形3号 and 四六判; a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default; System Layout remains a panel stub; scores unchanged; G4: manual Tate-chu-yoko; G4: No Break; scores unchanged; the selection tools take a clipping path on its outline, G1; Polygon and Star exact-size placement remembers the chosen count for later drags and dialog openings; Cancel preserves the previous count; Live trace result bounds and selection highlights exclude the retained bitmap except in source-image views; CSS swatch libraries retain fractional gradient stop positions; scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17; exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates; cached canvas dimensions match the renderer limit before cache-key creation, view construction and worker submission; cached canvas reprojection preserves scale during resize, rotation and DPI changes; interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; 3D lighting: one to ten colored lights, smooth colored Inflate, legacy white-light appearance preserved; surface batching and restored seam minimum; scores and estimates unchanged; Blend spine Anchor Point conversions, selection/stacking priority and Shift regression coverage (#2544); scores and hours unchanged;

remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged. Scores and estimates unchanged; #3147: `vectorcraft-cli run --commands FILE` (or `-`) reads the steps from a JSON file or standard input (an array or JSON Lines, at most 64 MiB and 100,000 steps), among `--cmd` and `--export` in order; errors name the step. Scores and estimates unchanged; G2: Effect › Sketch › Conté Crayon (Foreground Level, Background Level, Texture, Scaling, Relief, Light Direction, Invert; a black crayon in the dark areas and a white one in the light areas on textured mid-grey paper;

Recolor Artwork Edit chips scroll within the available screen height (#3416); small palettes retain their tab height; scores and estimates unchanged; #3515: recent-font groups in font pickers; PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 flattening keeps a CMYK document's inks where it rasterizes, #2160; Blend panel Type and Ramp control step easing with a separate color Shift (#2539); Blend Options retains spacing and orientation; polynomial curves are original approximation; UI chrome: panels dock into any dock group or the icon column by dragging (UI.6), workspaces keep their layout changes (UI.7), dock groups collapse to their tabs by a double-click (UI.8); scores and hours unchanged; Shape Builder Gap Detection shares Live Paint’s spatial gap finder and temporary merge bridges (#2526); Custom is capped at 72 pt in the existing options dialog; Recolor model selection is available through the engine and MCP only (#2520); the dialog retains its existing controls; filter plug-ins read and set effect records and stroke joins, caps and miter limits, G17; the Print dialog's Media list has the Japanese papers: JIS B4 257 × 364 mm, JIS B5 182 × 257 mm and JIS B6 beside the ISO B4/B5, which keep their ISO 216 sizes, and はがき, 往復はがき, 封筒 長形3号/長形4号/角形2号/角形3号 and 四六判; a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default; System Layout remains a panel stub; scores unchanged; G4: manual Tate-chu-yoko; G4: No Break; scores unchanged; the selection tools take a clipping path on its outline, G1; Polygon and Star exact-size placement remembers the chosen count for later drags and dialog openings; Cancel preserves the previous count; Live trace result bounds and selection highlights exclude the retained bitmap except in source-image views; CSS swatch libraries retain fractional gradient stop positions; scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17; exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates; cached canvas dimensions match the renderer limit before cache-key creation, view construction and worker submission; cached canvas reprojection preserves scale during resize, rotation and DPI changes; interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; 3D lighting: one to ten colored lights, smooth colored Inflate, legacy white-light appearance preserved;

SVG knockout groups of opaque art export without masks) · **Target:** Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.x; public release notes through 30.7, August 2026; Simplify: Object › Path › Simplify opens its slider at the Auto-Simplify level for the selection, previewing that result, instead of at 1 pt; partial-path simplify remains missing; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged. Scores and estimates unchanged; #3147: `vectorcraft-cli run --commands FILE` (or `-`) reads the steps from a JSON file or standard input (an array or JSON Lines, at most 64 MiB and 100,000 steps), among `--cmd` and `--export` in order; errors name the step. Scores and estimates unchanged; G2: Effect › Sketch › Conté Crayon (Foreground Level, Background Level, Texture, Scaling, Relief, Light Direction, Invert; a black crayon in the dark areas and a white one in the light areas on textured mid-grey paper; ranges and defaults unverified VectorCraft choices); measured Photoshop-style filters 57/57, the Effect Gallery remains (4–6 h); Affinity import AF.5: master pages, tables, paragraph formats, shadows, glows, outlines, overlays and embedded documents; Recolor Artwork Edit chips scroll within the available screen height (#3416); small palettes retain their tab height; scores and estimates unchanged; #3515: recent-font groups in font pickers; PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 flattening keeps a CMYK document's inks where it rasterizes, #2160; Blend panel Type and Ramp control step easing with a separate color Shift (#2539); Blend Options retains spacing and orientation; polynomial curves are original approximation; UI chrome: panels dock into any dock group or the icon column by dragging (UI.6), workspaces keep their layout changes (UI.7), dock groups collapse to their tabs by a double-click (UI.8); scores and hours unchanged; Shape Builder Gap Detection shares Live Paint’s spatial gap finder and temporary merge bridges (#2526); Custom is capped at 72 pt in the existing options dialog; Recolor model selection is available through the engine and MCP only (#2520); the dialog retains its existing controls; filter plug-ins read and set effect records and stroke joins, caps and miter limits, G17; the Print dialog's Media list has the Japanese papers: JIS B4 257 × 364 mm, JIS B5 182 × 257 mm and JIS B6 beside the ISO B4/B5, which keep their ISO 216 sizes, and はがき, 往復はがき, 封筒 長形3号/長形4号/角形2号/角形3号 and 四六判; a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default; System Layout remains a panel stub; scores unchanged; G4: manual Tate-chu-yoko; G4: No Break; scores unchanged; the selection tools take a clipping path on its outline, G1; Polygon and Star exact-size placement remembers the chosen count for later drags and dialog openings; Cancel preserves the previous count; Live trace result bounds and selection highlights exclude the retained bitmap except in source-image views; CSS swatch libraries retain fractional gradient stop positions; scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17; exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates; cached canvas dimensions match the renderer limit before cache-key creation, view construction and worker submission; cached canvas reprojection preserves scale during resize, rotation and DPI changes; interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; 3D lighting: one to ten colored lights, smooth colored Inflate, legacy white-light appearance preserved; surface batching and restored seam minimum; scores and estimates unchanged; Blend spine Anchor Point conversions, selection/stacking priority and Shift regression coverage (#2544); scores and hours unchanged; Artboard Options' X and Y with a reference point, #1876; Image Trace: Auto Color keeps rare but distinct colours; Image Trace: large images trace with a warning; anchor limit raised to 8,000,000; Image Trace: Raster::new returns an error for a buffer of the wrong length; M12 maximal-disc graph pruning and junction merging measured; M12 crop EDT and Guo–Hall thinning measured; M12 centre-lines baseline measured; scores and hours unchanged; installed plug-ins stay installed after a restart, #2541;

SVG knockout groups of opaque art export without masks) · **Target:** Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.x; public release notes through 30.7, August 2026) +> **Last reviewed:** 2026-10-10 · **Last updated:** 2026-10-25 · **Change:** minor (Transform Each opens on the values it was last confirmed with and has a Copy button instead of a Copy checkbox (#1732); scores and estimates unchanged; previously: Recolor Artwork › Assign: double-click a new color for the Color Picker, which keeps a CMYK mix as typed (part of #4028; Lab can't be typed yet); scores and estimates unchanged; previously: Path operations: Shape Builder's edge-source index is a grid, diagonal hatches no longer quadratic, scores unchanged; previously:; imported function-based PDF shadings keep their colours (#3621); docs catch-up: superseded Raster effects and Live vector effects rows removed, Relative rounding no longer missing (#3091), Hard/Soft Mix and Trap noted done in the 2026-10-05 table; scores and hours unchanged; previously: Type advanced: ruby is kept by Create Outlines and in EPS, EMF/WMF and legacy `.ai` exports, scores unchanged; previously: Path operations: Shape Builder pieces on dense hatches no longer leave specks where the sweep cut a line's two passes apart, scores unchanged; previously: Select › Start Global Edit: objects of the same shape (Appearance, Size, artboard options) edited together in proportion as one undo step, #3521, score and hours unchanged; previously:; symbol libraries: Window › Symbol Libraries and the Symbols panel's Symbol Libraries Menu open library panels of a generated Basic Shapes library, User Defined libraries and any document's symbols (Other Library…); a symbol clicked is added to the document's Symbols, one dragged onto the canvas is placed too, and Save Symbols writes a `.vectorcraft` library; scores and hours unchanged; previously:; Type core: threading ports on every selected area type and type on a path, the in port threading backwards, #2572; scores unchanged; G1: Distance Guides (Smart Guides › Invoke Distance Guides): with something selected and the Selection tool, Alt/Option over another object shows the horizontal and vertical distances between them, and over an empty part of an artboard the selection's distances from its four edges, labelled in the General unit; scores and hours unchanged; previously:; Pathfinder › Trap: the Pathfinder panel's Trap… and Effect › Pathfinder › Trap… add overprinting traps of the lighter colour where solid colours meet; Live vector effects measured count 49/50, score unchanged, hours 6–10 → 4–8; Artboard Options: Show Video Safe Areas (`showVideoSafeAreas`) outlines the action-safe and title-safe areas 3.5% and 5% in from each edge (EBU R 95) on the canvas only, and Video Ruler Pixel Aspect Ratio (`videoRulerPixelAspectRatio`, 0.1–10, default 1) sets how wide a video pixel is, per artboard, in one undo step and in the native format; View › Rulers › Show Video Rulers (`view.videoRulers`) counts the active artboard in those pixels from its top-left corner (#2849); scores and estimates unchanged; Drawing tools: a double-click on the Line Segment, Arc, Rectangular Grid or Polar Grid tool opens its Tool Options, whose OK sets the next drag's and click's options (#2691, in part); score and hours unchanged; Libraries panel: items show as icons or in a list, toggled beside the library picker; scores unchanged; Pencil: Shift held at the press draws a straight line at 45° steps from the Constrain Angle, and one started on an end of a selected open path continues it (part of #3799);

Path operations score and hours unchanged (estimated); Fix #3705: in Draw Inside, art drawn or pasted inside the isolated object takes isolation mode into its clip group, so it can be clicked and isn't dimmed; undo or redo that removes the isolated object ends isolation mode; SVG keeps attributes in other applications' XML namespaces on their objects from import to export, the rest of #522; Fix #3705 in part: drawing modes apply to pastes (Draw Inside puts Paste, Paste in Place and Paste on All Artboards inside the object drawn into; Draw Behind puts Paste in Place and Paste on All Artboards behind the selection), and Shift+D goes from Draw Behind back to Draw Normal when Draw Inside can't draw into the selection instead of stopping at Draw Behind; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

scores and hours unchanged; Shape Builder Gap Detection shares Live Paint’s spatial gap finder and temporary merge bridges (#2526); Custom is capped at 72 pt in the existing options dialog; Recolor model selection is available through the engine and MCP only (#2520); the dialog retains its existing controls; filter plug-ins read and set effect records and stroke joins, caps and miter limits, G17; the Print dialog's Media list has the Japanese papers: JIS B4 257 × 364 mm, JIS B5 182 × 257 mm and JIS B6 beside the ISO B4/B5, which keep their ISO 216 sizes, and はがき, 往復はがき, 封筒 長形3号/長形4号/角形2号/角形3号 and 四六判; a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default;

exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates;

remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview;

partial-path simplify remains missing; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default; System Layout remains a panel stub; scores unchanged; G4: manual Tate-chu-yoko; G4: No Break; scores unchanged; the selection tools take a clipping path on its outline, G1; Polygon and Star exact-size placement remembers the chosen count for later drags and dialog openings;

scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17; exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates; cached canvas dimensions match the renderer limit before cache-key creation, view construction and worker submission; cached canvas reprojection preserves scale during resize, rotation and DPI changes; interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; 3D lighting: one to ten colored lights, smooth colored Inflate, legacy white-light appearance preserved;

previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged. Scores and estimates unchanged; #3147: `vectorcraft-cli run --commands FILE` (or `-`) reads the steps from a JSON file or standard input (an array or JSON Lines, at most 64 MiB and 100,000 steps), among `--cmd` and `--export` in order; errors name the step. Scores and estimates unchanged; G2: Effect › Sketch › Conté Crayon (Foreground Level, Background Level, Texture, Scaling, Relief, Light Direction, Invert; a black crayon in the dark areas and a white one in the light areas on textured mid-grey paper; ranges and defaults unverified VectorCraft choices); measured Photoshop-style filters 57/57, the Effect Gallery remains (4–6 h); Affinity import AF.5: master pages, tables, paragraph formats, shadows, glows, outlines, overlays and embedded documents; Recolor Artwork Edit chips scroll within the available screen height (#3416); small palettes retain their tab height; scores and estimates unchanged; #3515: recent-font groups in font pickers; PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 flattening keeps a CMYK document's inks where it rasterizes, #2160; Blend panel Type and Ramp control step easing with a separate color Shift (#2539); Blend Options retains spacing and orientation; polynomial curves are original approximation; UI chrome: panels dock into any dock group or the icon column by dragging (UI.6), workspaces keep their layout changes (UI.7), dock groups collapse to their tabs by a double-click (UI.8); scores and hours unchanged; Shape Builder Gap Detection shares Live Paint’s spatial gap finder and temporary merge bridges (#2526); Custom is capped at 72 pt in the existing options dialog; Recolor model selection is available through the engine and MCP only (#2520); the dialog retains its existing controls; filter plug-ins read and set effect records and stroke joins, caps and miter limits, G17; the Print dialog's Media list has the Japanese papers: JIS B4 257 × 364 mm, JIS B5 182 × 257 mm and JIS B6 beside the ISO B4/B5, which keep their ISO 216 sizes, and はがき, 往復はがき, 封筒 長形3号/長形4号/角形2号/角形3号 and 四六判; a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default; System Layout remains a panel stub; scores unchanged; G4: manual Tate-chu-yoko; G4: No Break; scores unchanged; the selection tools take a clipping path on its outline, G1; Polygon and Star exact-size placement remembers the chosen count for later drags and dialog openings; Cancel preserves the previous count; Live trace result bounds and selection highlights exclude the retained bitmap except in source-image views; CSS swatch libraries retain fractional gradient stop positions; scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17; exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates; cached canvas dimensions match the renderer limit before cache-key creation, view construction and worker submission; cached canvas reprojection preserves scale during resize, rotation and DPI changes; interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; 3D lighting: one to ten colored lights, smooth colored Inflate, legacy white-light appearance preserved;

partial-path simplify remains missing; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md);

SVG knockout groups of opaque art export without masks) · **Target:** Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.x; public release notes through 30.7, August 2026; Artboard Options: Show Center Mark and Show Cross Hairs (`artboard.setProps`/`artboard.new` `showCenterMark`, `showCrossHairs`) draw a center cross and lines from the middle of each side through the center on the canvas only, in one undo step; video safe areas, video rulers and the pixel aspect ratio remain missing; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

SVG knockout groups of opaque art export without masks) · **Target:** Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.x; public release notes through 30.7, August 2026; Simplify: Object › Path › Simplify opens its slider at the Auto-Simplify level for the selection, previewing that result, instead of at 1 pt; partial-path simplify remains missing; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged. Scores and estimates unchanged; #3147: `vectorcraft-cli run --commands FILE` (or `-`) reads the steps from a JSON file or standard input (an array or JSON Lines, at most 64 MiB and 100,000 steps), among `--cmd` and `--export` in order; errors name the step.

Recolor Artwork Edit chips scroll within the available screen height (#3416); small palettes retain their tab height; scores and estimates unchanged; #3515: recent-font groups in font pickers; PDF/X-1a and PDF/X-3 flattening keeps a CMYK document's inks where it rasterizes, #2160; Blend panel Type and Ramp control step easing with a separate color Shift (#2539); Blend Options retains spacing and orientation; polynomial curves are original approximation; UI chrome: panels dock into any dock group or the icon column by dragging (UI.6), workspaces keep their layout changes (UI.7), dock groups collapse to their tabs by a double-click (UI.8); scores and hours unchanged; Shape Builder Gap Detection shares Live Paint’s spatial gap finder and temporary merge bridges (#2526); Custom is capped at 72 pt in the existing options dialog; Recolor model selection is available through the engine and MCP only (#2520); the dialog retains its existing controls; filter plug-ins read and set effect records and stroke joins, caps and miter limits, G17; the Print dialog's Media list has the Japanese papers: JIS B4 257 × 364 mm, JIS B5 182 × 257 mm and JIS B6 beside the ISO B4/B5, which keep their ISO 216 sizes, and はがき, 往復はがき, 封筒 長形3号/長形4号/角形2号/角形3号 and 四六判; a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default; System Layout remains a panel stub; scores unchanged; G4: manual Tate-chu-yoko; G4: No Break; scores unchanged; the selection tools take a clipping path on its outline, G1; Polygon and Star exact-size placement remembers the chosen count for later drags and dialog openings; Cancel preserves the previous count; Live trace result bounds and selection highlights exclude the retained bitmap except in source-image views; CSS swatch libraries retain fractional gradient stop positions; scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17;

RGB documents unchanged; `dimensions::dimension_colours_follow_the_document_colour_model`. Scores and hours unchanged; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

SVG knockout groups of opaque art export without masks) · **Target:** Adobe Illustrator 2026 (30.x; public release notes through 30.7, August 2026; Dimension tool: in a CMYK document a dimension's lines, arrowheads and label are drawn in CMYK, black as K only (`0 0 0 1`) and other colours through the active colour settings, instead of an RGB black that printed as a four-ink rich black (#3233); RGB documents unchanged; `dimensions::dimension_colours_follow_the_document_colour_model`. Scores and hours unchanged; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

a paper is named by its JSON id or its dialog label, any case and spacing; imported PDF type that is letter-spaced keeps its word spaces and no others; Fractional Widths: Character panel menu, per type object, on by default; System Layout remains a panel stub; scores unchanged; G4: manual Tate-chu-yoko; G4: No Break; scores unchanged; the selection tools take a clipping path on its outline, G1; Polygon and Star exact-size placement remembers the chosen count for later drags and dialog openings;

scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17; exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates; cached canvas dimensions match the renderer limit before cache-key creation, view construction and worker submission; cached canvas reprojection preserves scale during resize, rotation and DPI changes; interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; 3D lighting: one to ten colored lights, smooth colored Inflate, legacy white-light appearance preserved;

video safe areas, video rulers and the pixel aspect ratio remain missing; G2: the Effect Gallery shipped (#2883): Effect › Effect Gallery… browses the Artistic, Brush Strokes, Distort, Sketch, Stylize and Texture filters, edits each filter's settings, builds an ordered stack (add, reorder, hide, remove) with a live canvas preview, and OK applies it as separate appearance effects in one undo step; remaining: filter thumbnails and a preview area inside the dialog; G2 estimate 4–6 → 1–2 h; Raster effects 82% → 85% (power-user view 49% → 52%), estimated, a modest move because the named missing dialog landed without thumbnails or an in-dialog preview; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

Cancel preserves the previous count; Live trace result bounds and selection highlights exclude the retained bitmap except in source-image views; CSS swatch libraries retain fractional gradient stop positions; scores and hours unchanged; live-effect plug-ins given their object's fills and strokes and the item they sit on, G17; plug-in parameters: labels, units, groups, help and conditions in their dialogs, text and number-list parameters, up to 256 of them, G17; exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`);

scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

exporter plug-ins: plug-in file formats in Export As and document.export, G17; G2: Effect › Artistic › Smudge Stick, Sponge and Watercolor; Sketch › Bas Relief, Charcoal, Photocopy and Stamp, #2533; Photoshop filters 45/57, 12 remaining (8–14 h); interactive Mirror Repeat axis; bounding-box handles take priority over the axis body while the center and end handles retain their move and rotation actions; Libraries panel: the list scrolls, items and groups reorder by dragging, items drag into and out of groups (`library.moveItem` before/after, `library.moveGroup`); scores unchanged; PDF invisible text opens as type with no fill or stroke and is written back invisible, #2675; status-readout sample widths cached by language, document unit and pixels per point; status messages and readouts use stable responsive allocations sized for localized labels and ordinary coordinates;

RGB documents unchanged; `dimensions::dimension_colours_follow_the_document_colour_model`. Scores and hours unchanged; previously: colour emoji fonts with bitmap glyphs (`sbix`: Apple Color Emoji; `CBDT`: Noto Color Emoji) draw on the canvas and export: PDF Type 3 glyphs or images, SVG images with outlined text, EPS and legacy `.ai` images, Create Outlines images, see [type-parity.md](type-parity.md); scores unchanged; imported PDF type keeps a word space between two sizes (#3623); G13: gradient Dither (Illustrator 30.0): a Dither box in the Gradient panel (`paint.editGradient`/`paint.setFill` `dither`, saved in the native file) draws a linear or radial gradient fill with seeded fine noise that hides banding, on the canvas and in raster exports; SVG and PDF exports write the fill as an image at the Document Raster Effects resolution, as the public documentation describes dither; fills only, as documented; score and hours unchanged; #3546: `--automation-read-root` and `--automation-write-root` may each be given more than once (`vectorcraft-cli mcp` and the desktop app); a path inside any root of its kind is allowed, every confinement check unchanged.

Update it when a featur Eraser Tool Options has Angle and Roundness besides Size, as [Erase paths using the Eraser tool](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/modify-paths/erase-paths-using-eraser-tool.html) describes: the Eraser's tip is an ellipse Size across, its long axis at Angle and its short axis Roundness percent of the long one, and a drag with a tip that is not round shows the outline of the area it erases (`path.eraseRegion` `angle` and `roundness`). - **Transform:** Rotate, Reflect, Scale, Shear (click or Alt-click snaps the reference point to anchors and centres; Alt-click opens the tool's dialog, and a drag with Alt down at the release, from the press or pressed mid-drag, transforms a copy), Reshape, Free Transform (free and perspective distort and shear, switched by the keys held during a handle drag). Align, Distribute, Distribute Spacing, Reflect and Shear return an error for any `horizontal`, `vertical`, `to`, `axis`, `bounds` or `spacing` value they don't take, listing the choices, and Align returns one when a call gives neither `horizontal` nor `vertical`; nothing moves and no undo step is recorded. Align and Distribute act on the anchor points selected with Direct Selection: the points of one path align to each other, not to the artboard, and Distribute spaces them (#1641, fixes #1636; aligning to a key anchor is still missing). + Transform Each opens on the scale, move, rotate, reflect, Random, reference point, Transform Objects and Preview it was last confirmed with (kept with the UI state; Copy never is), and its Copy button, left of Cancel, transforms a copy of each object as the [Scale multiple objects](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-objects/reshape-transform-objects/scale-multiple-objects.html) help page has it; the Copy checkbox is gone (#1732; the remembered values follow a maintainer comment on the issue, not the help page). Transform Again uses the Copy, Transform Patterns, Scale Strokes & Effects and Scale Corners choices of the transform it repeats; after a bounding-box handle drag on area type, it resizes the type area again and the type keeps its size (`object.transformAgain`). With anchors selected with Direct Selection, Move, Rotate, Scale, Reflect, Shear and Transform Again (the commands, their dialogs and the four tools' drags) transform only those anchors, their handles with them, about the centre of the box around them unless a point was clicked; a copy still copies the whole object (#1408; behaviour reference: [adjust path segments](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/adjust-path-segments.html); the default reference point and the copy are our choices). The Move, Rotate, Scale, Reflect and Shear dialogs have a Preview checkbox, off when they open: while it is on the canvas follows the values, Cancel rolls it back and OK is still one undo step; Up/Down step the Rotate and Shear angles and the Scale percentages by 1, Shift by 10 (#1412). The five dialogs and Transform Each have Transform Objects beside Transform Patterns: off, the art stays and only its pattern tiles transform (`objects` on the transform commands), and Transform Again repeats the choice (#1448; behaviour reference: [scale objects](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-objects/reshape-transform-objects/scale-objects.html); the checkboxes are always enabled and the Scale page's pair is applied to all of them, our choices). Reflect's axis is Horizontal, Vertical or an angle (#1460; [reflect objects along an axis](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-objects/arrange-objects/reflect-objects-along-an-axis.html)). The link that keeps Transform Each's two scales equal is not built. - **Pen:** Alt pressed in the middle of dragging out an anchor splits its handles and keeps the curve already shaped into it (only the outgoing handle follows the pointer); Space held while dragging out an anchor moves it, handles and all. A press on the first anchor of the path being drawn closes it whatever the drag then does: the drag shapes the closing curve (symmetric handles, Alt breaks them) and the release closes the path wherever it ends (#501). Clicking the last anchor of the path being drawn retracts its outgoing handle (convert cursor), and dragging from it pulls out a new one on its own. Auto Add/Delete: over a selected path, a click on a segment adds an anchor and a click on an anchor deletes it (add and delete cursors); Shift held, or Preferences › General › Disable Auto Add/Delete, starts a new path instead. Alt held over a handle end or an anchor of a selected path (the one being drawn too) works as the Anchor Point tool, with its convert cursor: dragging a handle moves it alone, clicking a smooth anchor makes it a corner, dragging an anchor pulls out new symmetric handles, dragging a segment reshapes it; drawing then goes on. Cmd (Ctrl) held drags with the selection tool chosen last, Direct Selection until one is (handles, anchors and segments of the path being drawn or another), and the Pen then goes on drawing its path while that stays selected; the pointer shows that tool's while Cmd is held. The same holds for agents (`pointer_gesture` with `mods.cmd`), as the borrowing now lives in the engine (#494). A drag's preview (the Pen's, the Anchor Point tool's, Direct Selection's handles and anchors) follows every position the pointer is seen at (#834): the canvas sends the tool a drag whenever the pointer's document position differs from the last one it sent, not only when egui's frame delta is non-zero (zero when a compositor coalesces motion and in the frame the pointer comes back into the window after leaving it), and a move that arrives in the release's own frame shapes the preview before the release commits it, once the press has dragged. With the Pen, a press that moves under 3 screen pixels is a click (a corner without handles), and a Precise Cursors command toggles the existing preference and can take a shortcut (#1663). - **Direct Selection (#1278):** clicking a segment picks its connection, with hollow endpoint anchors and only that curve's direction handles. Delete leaves the neighboring curves and appearance intact, opens/splits contours in one undo step, and another Delete removes the remaining selected path. A whole-path drag and deliberate anchor selection keep their existing behavior; egui frames and native control/art checked, OS mouse/visual QA pending. Where anchors of overlapping objects coincide, a click or drag takes the anchor of the selected object, also when another object lies over it (#1509, fixes #1508). Delete removes every selected anchor of a closed path (it used to remove the wrong ones), removes objects selected whole along with the selected anchors of others, and keeps the remainder selected so a second Delete removes it (#1674). In isolation mode Direct Selection and Group Selection pick only inside the isolated object (#1666). Escape cancels a Direct Selection drag (#1803, #1743). Double-clicking type (including type nested inside a group) switches to the Type tool and puts the caret at the clicked character. @@ -1110,6 +1111,7 @@ applies to fills).
