On each pointer move of an Alt-drag with the Perspective Selection
tool, Session::preview put the drag's snapshot back and ran
perspective.move with copy again, and persp_edit copied every selected
object again. An Alt-drag of a plane widget with the Perspective Grid
or Perspective Selection tool ran perspective.plane.move with objects
"copy" again, and plane_move copied every object on the plane again.
Both commands now take their copies from preview_copies, as
apply_transform does for the Selection and transform tools: the first
preview copies the objects into a clone of the snapshot, and each later
preview of the same objects on the same snapshot maps only those
copies. The copies keep their ids, and the document, the selection,
the undo step and the journal are the same as before. When the stored
grid still lists attachments of its own, as grids saved before
attachments were kept on the objects do, both commands copy on every
preview as before. With 25,000 rectangles attached to the left plane,
a release build of vectorcraft-cli took a median of 424.8 ms for each
Alt-drag move of the objects after the first preview and takes
328.9 ms with this change. An Alt-drag of the plane's widget took
340.3 ms a move and takes 256.9 ms.

file.new stamps metadata.created from the clock in whole seconds. Four
Alt-drag tests in tests_xform.rs compare the document under test with
one that a second session builds, and both sessions start from
session()'s file.new. When the clock reached a new second between the
two calls, the documents differed in created, and the test failed.
With a temporary change that made each clock read on a thread at least
one second later than the one before, all four failed.
session() in tests_xform.rs and persp_session() in
tests_persp_select.rs now pass "created": null to file.new, as #1894
did for doc_with_rect() in tests_ids_without_selection.rs. Two new
tests in #2067 compare two documents built on persp_session().
On each pointer move of an Alt-drag with the Selection, Direct
Selection, Group Selection, Rotate, Scale, Reflect or Shear tool,
Session::preview put the drag's snapshot back and ran object.transform
with copy again, and duplicate_in copied every selected object again.
The Move, Rotate, Scale, Reflect and Shear dialogs with Copy and Preview
on copied every selected object again on each change of a value.
The interaction now keeps the untransformed copies that its first
preview with copy makes of the snapshot. Each later preview that
copies the same objects of the same snapshot transforms only those
copies. The copies keep their ids, and the document, the selection,
the undo step and the journal are the same as before. With 25,000
rectangles selected, a release build of vectorcraft-cli took a median
of 138.5 ms for each Alt-drag move after the first preview and takes
105.7 ms with this change.

A background drawn at the artboard's own position could sit 3e-14 pt outside it and
stay behind when the artboard moved, was copied or scaled its art. Art within a
millionth of a point of the artboard's edges now counts as inside it.
The fix and both tests are from #1295 by Luca Lorenz, without its change to art that
only partly overlaps the artboard.

The Artboard tool and the Artboards panel only ever had one artboard
selected, so Shift-clicking another didn't add it. As in Illustrator:
- Artboard tool: Shift-click adds an artboard to the selection (it
becomes active) or takes one out; a plain click on a selected one keeps
the selection, so a drag moves them all (Alt copies them all, the
copies becoming the selection), and Delete removes them all, one
artboard always staying. The other selected artboards show dashed
bounds; `selected` is a tool option.
- Artboards panel: with the Artboard tool, Shift- or Ctrl/Cmd-click on a
row adds or removes it, every selected row is highlighted, and Delete
Artboard removes them all.
- `artboard.move` and `artboard.delete` take `indices` besides `index`:
several artboards in one undo step, each with its art (an object moved
once where artboards overlap).

object.align with neither horizontal nor vertical returned success
and moved nothing. The command palette, and a key bound to it in
Keyboard Shortcuts, run it with no params. It now returns
"give horizontal or vertical", as object.distribute already did.
An action recorded while Align ran from the palette or a bound key
contains an object.align step with no params. Playing that action now
fails at that step, and command.batch rolls back the whole action.
Values outside a parameter's choices were read as another choice or
ignored. Align ignored an unknown horizontal or vertical and aligned
to the selection for an unknown to value. Distribute read an unknown
direction as center. Distribute Spacing and Shear read any axis other
than "vertical" as horizontal, and Reflect read any axis other than
"horizontal" or a number as vertical. A bounds or to value that was
not a string fell back to the default, and a spacing that was not a
number gave automatic spacing. The commands now return an error that
names such a value, before they move anything or record an undo
step. When a to, bounds, axis or spacing value is missing or null,
the command uses the parameter's default: Distribute Spacing without
an axis spaces the objects horizontally.
The run_command description and docs/mcp.md showed object.align with
an align param it does not have; they now use horizontal. The new
status-bar messages have rows in the de, es, fr, it, ja, ru and uk
catalogs.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
`artboard.setProps {scaleArt: true}` maps the art fully inside a resized
artboard (as Move Artwork with Artboard gathers it) and its artboard guides
from the old rectangle onto the new one, each side by its own ratio, in one
undo step, and returns the ids scaled. Strokes, effects and corners follow
Scale Strokes & Effects and Scale Corners (`strokes`, `corners`), pattern tiles
Transform Pattern Tiles (`patterns`); locked and hidden art follows
`lockedAndHidden` (default: prefs moveLockedWithArtboard). The resolved choices
are journaled, so a replay scales the same objects the same way. A move that
keeps the size scales nothing.
The Artboard tool's `scaleArt` option (saved with `moveArt`) makes handle
drags proportional, as the public help describes, keeps them proportional at
the 1 pt minimum, and leaves the scaled art out of the Smart Guide targets.
Move and Scale Artwork with Artboard are check boxes in the Control bar and
Properties' Edit Artboards; the artboard size fields there and in the
Transform panel pass the option. Translated in the eight catalogs that have
Move Artwork with Artboard. docs/mcp.md and the ROADMAP updated.

The Artboard tool handled Delete/Backspace in Tool::key, but never claimed
the keys through Tool::claims_key. The UI only routes Delete/Backspace to a
tool that claims them, so the keypress went to the Clear shortcut instead
and the artboard stayed. The existing tests called the tool directly and
missed it.
The tool now claims Delete/Backspace while no drag is in progress and more
than one artboard exists. With only one artboard left, the keys stay with
the shortcut.

A Shift-drag marquee only ever added to the selection, so there was no way to
take some of the selected objects out with it. As in Illustrator, Shift-drag
now toggles what the marquee reaches: the selected ones are deselected, the
others selected, the rest of the selection stays.
- Selection tool: the Shift marquee runs select.toggle, which now also takes
{ids} (each one toggles).
- Direct Selection and Group Selection: the Shift marquee toggles the anchors
inside it (select.anchorsMany mode "toggle"); a path left with none leaves
the selection, one with all of them is selected whole again.
- select.anchorsMany takes mode "set"|"add"|"toggle"|"subtract" (add: true is
still mode add). Adding anchors of a path selected whole keeps it whole, and
anchor references outside the path are ignored.
- Lasso: Shift adds and Alt subtracts through the same command, so an Alt lasso
no longer drops selected type, groups and other non-path objects.
- Tests at the tool, engine (Session::pointer) and MCP (pointer_gesture) levels,
command sweep cases for the new modes; docs/mcp.md and ROADMAP.

artboard.move with copy and artboard.duplicate now make the copy with one helper: a
new id that can't overflow and a name of its own (`<name> copy`, then `<name> copy 2`…,
so two copies of one artboard no longer share a name). `moved` lists the copies a copy
moved rather than the originals it left. Test it with and without moveArt, and note
Alt-drag in the ROADMAP.

Alt-dragging an artboard moved it like a plain drag. artboard.move now
takes copy: it leaves the artboard (and the art it carries) where it
is and moves a copy, named "<name> copy", with copies of that art. The
Artboard tool previews it while Alt is held, as "Duplicate Artboard"
(Alt pressed or released mid-drag switches between copy and move),
and makes the copy the active artboard, as in the reference app.

The tool chose scale, distort, perspective or shear from the modifiers at
the press only, but a Cmd press on the canvas is the temporary Selection
tool, and the documented gesture is to start dragging and then hold Cmd.
A handle drag now follows the modifiers held during the drag; when the
operation changes, the interaction restarts so the undo step is named
after what was done.

While a mask is edited, the Transparency panel and its commands act on the
masked object (Release leaves editing first). Mask commands and
transparency.set take ids and work without a selection; Make Opacity Mask
with one object adds an empty mask and enters editing. Opacity is 0..100 in
every command. transparency.info reports the panel's values with null for
mixed ones, shown blank. Saves and exports never include the editing layer
(Document::without_edit_modes; mask_edit is not serialized).
