| Date | Change | Summary |
|---|---|---|
| 2026-10-13 | minor | Fit Headline no longer pushes the tracking to its ceiling and loses glyphs when the frame holds one line (#1445, fixes #1444); text frames, wrap shapes and type paths with coordinates beyond a billion points hold no text, and layout limits its search for room, instead of hanging (#1451); scores and hours unchanged |
| 2026-10-12 | minor | A character no installed font had is looked for again after the fonts are rescanned, so installing a font fixes it without a restart (#1376, from #992); scores and hours unchanged |
| 2026-10-12 | minor | Full-name font matching and Missing Fonts searches (#1258): synthetic static/variable font regressions; Windows font-service QA pending; scores and hours unchanged |
| 2026-10-11 | minor | Middle Eastern: digit types done (Character panel menu › Digits: Default, Arabic, Hindi, Farsi; `text.setFormat` / `text.setRangeStyle {digits}`); Character Direction, kashidas, composers and the split caret still missing; scores unchanged at this rounding |
