Add Anchor Points builds the new anchor list in one pass, Swatch Library add looks names up in sets, full_documents dedups placed keys with a set, width profile lookups and mark insertion use binary search, and the symbolism tools cap and thin the previews of a long drag as Liquify does.
The status bar said "Opened with 1 note(s)", "Saved <path> with 1 note(s)",
"Discarded 1 recovered document(s)" and "Restored 1 recovered document(s)",
and the Global Edit options showed "Result(s): 1". They now use the singular
for 1 and the plural otherwise, in English through i18n::msg_n and in every
catalog through @msgplural rows (the Results line through an @plural row).
The engine's warnings for linked images and placed documents output as their
previews, and its errors for a page past a placed file's last page or
artboard, also name their counts in the singular or the plural.
The catalogs drop the rows no message reads any more: the plain "(s)" rows
of the changed messages and the @msg row for "Packaged {n} file(s){note}".
Follows #5002.
CodeRabbit findings #7, #72, #92, #94, #95, #99, #100, #140, #158, #174:
- Link search hashes at most the size it looked at (a growing file no longer matches).
- Resolving links reads, decodes and previews each linked file once, shared by every key.
- Placed documents read inside one another resolve links at most 8 deep, never one already
being read.
- A data set's image path and the placed-document rereader follow stored paths through
`document_path` (no other computer's share).
- The Links panel looks at a linked file within the roots of the automation caller that
opened the document.
- A fonts folder set by a confined caller is scanned without following links out of it.
- Recovery refuses an area folder that is a link or another account's.
- Atomic saves keep the replaced file's group and Linux access ACL, or make the replacement
owner-only.

The File Handling preference Link Placed PDF and .ai Files
(linkPlacedPdf) is removed. File › Place with Link now places a page of
a PDF, .ai or .ait file read as PDF pages as a linked placed document,
as it links a raster image, and link: false embeds the page. Link is on
by default in the Place dialog and in file.place, so a PDF or .ai page
placed from a file, which used to be embedded, is now linked unless
Link is off. A password or textAs: "outlines" still embeds, and so do
EPS and PostScript .ai files.
The Place dialog's Link tooltip describes a PDF or .ai file as a
document.
A .ai file read from its editing data (its PDF part only a placeholder)
finds the files its art places by name, beside it. Package now copies
those files into the same folder as the .ai file, and warns when one has
to be copied under another name.
File › Place with Link kept a link only to raster images and VectorCraft
documents. A PDF, .ai or .ait page was always embedded as a group, so
Update Links never saw a newer version of the file.
A new preference, File Handling › Link Placed PDF and .ai Files
(linkPlacedPdf), is off by default. With it on, Link places the page as
a placed document, as it places a VectorCraft document: the object
keeps the file's bytes, a preview, the page number and the page's box
(crop, art, trim, bleed or media, stored as page_box). Links check,
update and relink it, Break Link and Object › Expand give the group
placing it without Link gives, every output draws the page's vectors,
and saving and reopening keep the link. With the preference off, or
with a password or textAs: "outlines", the page is embedded as before.
EPS and PostScript .ai files are still embedded.
Package copies a placed PDF or .ai file as it is. The Place dialog's
Link tooltip describes a PDF or .ai file as a document while the
preference is on. Relinking a placed document to a file that is not a
VectorCraft document, a PDF or a PDF-compatible .ai file says so.

With crop "bounding", file.place measured the placed art by each
object's visual bounds, which include the hidden members of a group.
A group holding a 40 pt square and a hidden 170 x 42 pt rectangle was
measured as 251 x 123 pt: at, rect, the place cursor and
file.place.info all used that box. A group whose only part on the page
or artboard was a hidden member was also placed, and symbol instances
were measured as a 20 pt square.
The art's box now follows the rule exports use
(vectorcraft_render::encode::drawn_bounds, made public): hidden
objects, guides and template layers do not count; the reach of effects
such as a drop shadow now counts; symbol instances are measured by
their art. The same rule picks the objects on the page or artboard.
Hidden objects on the page or artboard are still placed, and stay
hidden. Replace and the width and height that file.place answers also
measure symbol instances by their art.
