From the review of #4605. TraceParams::swatches isn't in the settings' JSON (serde skip), so a Document Library trace whose swatches were edited while it ran still applied, with the old colours; the trace's inputs now hold them. The 100 ms repaint that keeps background work moving left traces out, so without input a finished trace could wait for the next event.
A new reader, written from the ZSoft PCX Technical Reference Manual, decodes
the run-length encoded scan lines of 1-bit images in the header palette's
first two colors (black and white when the version has no palette or the two
colors are the same), 1-bit images in two to four planes and 4-bit images
with the header's palette (the EGA colors for versions 0 and 3), 2-bit CGA
images in the colors that the header's CGA background and palette settings
pick, 8-bit images with the 256-color palette after the image data (gray
levels without one) and 24-bit images in three planes. The image is stored as PNG at the resolution of the header's HDpi and
VDpi fields.
Open and Place list PCX, and pasting a copied .pcx file and Glass's Load
Texture… read it by its header. A file of another depth or plane count, one
cut short and one whose pixels as RGBA pass the pixel allowance are refused
with a message before its pixels are decoded. The desktop packaging does not
associate .pcx files, and no export writes them.
Docs: docs/file-format-parity.md, docs/target-app-parity.md, docs/mcp.md,
docs/releasing.md.
The Quick Actions listed Object › Path's Offset Path and Simplify for every
selection, but both take paths: with type selected, the dialog opened and
could only fail ("Offset Path: select paths"). They are now left out when
every selected object is type, as Lock and Isolate Group are when they can't
run; live type offsets through the Appearance panel's Effect › Path ›
Offset Path, which works on type.
Tracing a photo or a large image ran inside imageTrace.make on the UI
thread, so the window froze for as long as the trace took, with nothing
to say it was working.
A trace the user asks for (Object > Image Trace > Make and Make and
Expand, the task bar's Image Trace, the Image Trace panel's Trace and
presets) now runs on a thread of its own, as heavy plug-in filters do.
The status bar says so, and after 0.4 s a progress window shows how
many of the image's colors are traced, with Cancel and Continue in
Background (imageTrace.cancelRuns, imageTrace.hideRuns).
The result goes back to the command it was prepared for
(cmd::TraceRun, Traced::hand_in), which takes it only for the same
object, image and settings, so the edit is one undo step as before. A
newer trace of the same object replaces one still running, and a trace
whose image or settings changed meanwhile changes nothing. The control
channel, MCP, scripts and the web trace at once, as before.
The tracer reports its stages and color layers to a callback and stops
when it says so (trace_watched).
The Place dialog's title and button, its undo step and the Libraries panel's Place item read "Yer" (a place, a location). They all name the command, "Yerleştir".
The Turkish catalog translated the bare "Open" as the adjective (Açık), so the Home screen's Open button and the History panel's first row read "open" rather than "open it". The Arc tool's Type choice, where Open is the adjective, now looks its labels up in a "shape" context (falling back to the plain row in the other languages), and Turkish gives it Açık there.
In typography and Illustrator, Shift+Enter inserts a soft return (forced
line break) rather than ending the paragraph. Text wraps to the next line
without applying paragraph-level spacing (space before/after, first-line
indents), list continuation lines keep their parent item without repeating
markers, and justified text does not stretch lines ending with a soft return.
- Forward active modifier keys for Enter in ui-egui shortcuts so the tool
detects Shift+Enter.
- Type tool inserts U+2028 (LINE SEPARATOR) on Shift+Enter.
- Text shaping and layout treat U+2028 as an invisible zero-advance control
character, breaking the line in point and area type.
- Paragraph spacing and list markers apply once per paragraph as intended.
The document point under the pointer (Object Highlighting, the rulers' marks, the status bar and the Info panel) was taken wherever the pointer was over the canvas's rectangle, even over a dialog, a floating panel or a menu on top of it, so objects under the Print or Export for Screens dialog lit up as the pointer moved over the dialog. It now takes the same check as the tool's hover (the canvas's own layer under the pointer), except during a drag that began on the canvas.
The commands opened the panel as an icon column's flyout, but Separations Preview isn't in an icon column, so the dock dropped the request on the next frame and nothing showed. They now show it the way Window › Separations Preview does (in its group, its remembered place, or floating), and leave it showing when it already does.
In single-line text and numeric inputs across panels and dialogs, egui
0.37 defaulted TextEdit alignment to Align2::LEFT_TOP, placing the text
galley at the very top of the allocated input box (e.g. 1pt top margin,
11pt bottom margin in 26pt rows).
Align single-line TextEdit instances to Align2::LEFT_CENTER across
recessed_text, opt_field_named (dash/gap cells), hex fields, search
fields, and dialog inputs, matching DesignCraft's vertical centering.
Add regression assertions in look_tests verifying balanced vertical
spacing.
With ruler guides selected on their own (a click on one), the
Properties panel showed the Document sections, so a guide's position
could be typed only in the Transform panel.
The panel now has a Guides heading and a Transform section with the
Transform panel's guide fields (#1597): X moves the vertical guides and
Y the horizontal ones, together. With art selected too, it shows the
art's sections as before.

The link applied its state only when its button was clicked, so turning
it off and on again through `ui.dialog.set` kept the old proportions,
and the next dialog didn't open with the state set that way. A link
turned on at a side of zero also took new proportions on the next frame
once that side was a size again.
The dialog now keeps the link state it last applied and applies any
change from it, however it was made: turned on, the link keeps the
sizes the dialog shows then; turned off, it forgets them; either way
the next dialog opens with the new state. Nothing else recalculates the
proportions, so a link turned on at a side of zero stays unconstrained
until it is turned off and on again.

A click with the Rectangle, Rounded Rectangle or Ellipse tool opens a
dialog with Width and Height. It now has a Constrain Width and Height
Proportions link beside the two rows, drawn like the Transform panel's:
while it is on, typing one side sets the other at the proportions the
shape had when the link was turned on. The next of these dialogs opens
with the link as the last one left it.
Width now comes before Height in these dialogs: the fields were listed
by name, so Height came first.

The Color Guide kept the base color it took when the panel first showed,
and only the base chip changed it. In a new document the current fill is
white, so every harmony and variation was white or gray until the base
chip was clicked with another current color.
A color chosen in the Color panel (spectrum, sliders, fields, chips and
Recent Colors), in the Swatches panel or a swatch library panel, or with
OK in the Color Picker for a fill or stroke now becomes the guide's base
color, and the guide shows its harmonies. A color applied from the guide
itself leaves the base as it is, and so does selecting artwork. The base
chip (Set base color to the current color) still makes the current color
the base. A new base clears the cells selected for Save Colors as
Swatches.
The base moves from egui's temporary memory to UiState::color_guide_base,
which is not saved, so the Color panel, the Swatches panels and the Color
Picker can set it.
