dataset.select, dataset.next and dataset.prev rewrite bound type with
the data set's text but replied only {name, applied, skipped}. A long
value could push lines out of a fixed frame and the reply had no
overflow key, while text.setText answers overflow: [id] for the same
text.
The three commands now add overflow: [id...] with the area type and
type on a path whose text they rewrote and that doesn't fit, through
typecmd::with_overflow, as text.setText does. An object that two text
variables rewrite is named once. Type that the data set left alone is
not named, and the key is left out when all of the rewritten text
fits.

As in the reference app's Contextual Task Bar, which offers "options like
Image Trace, Retype, and Crop Image" for images and lets you "quickly
expand traced artwork from the bar" (public announcement:
https://community.adobe.com/announcements-651/contextual-task-bar-in-illustrator-2025-quick-actions-when-you-need-them-1546580):
- One image selected: Image Trace traces it at once with the Default
preset, leaving the Image Trace panel as it was (like the quick trace
from Properties and the Control bar); Crop Image shows the crop box.
Offset Path and Simplify, which don't apply to an image, are gone.
- One Image Trace object selected: Expand keeps only the traced paths,
in place of Ungroup and Isolate.
Retype isn't offered: the app doesn't have it.

dataset.import trimmed every cell, quoted or not. dataset.export quotes
a text value with leading or trailing spaces, so a value such as
" padded " came back from its own export as "padded".
The CSV reader now trims an unquoted cell as before and keeps a quoted
cell as written between its quotes, spaces included. White space
between the closing quote and the next comma or line end is still
dropped. Image, graph and visibility cells, data set names and header
cells are trimmed as before.
A `.ai` opened from its editing data lost a text object on a layer that
shows and has Print off when its page drew no type for it. prune_unseen
weighs each text object made from the text document that the page's
type doesn't match against the page, and the layers are drawn for that
comparison as they print (as_printed), with such layers hidden. Taking
one of these objects out never changed the comparison, so each was
removed with the note "text objects that the file keeps but its page
doesn't draw ... are left out".
unmark now carries a print flag next to the shown flag, and a layer
with printable off clears it for everything it holds. Only made text
objects that show and print are weighed against the page; the others
stay on their layer.

The command catalogue is about 340,000 characters, more than many MCP
clients show, and `query` (the name agents reach for first) was refused as
an unknown argument. command_list and list_commands now take `query` as
another name for `filter`, `menu` to keep the commands under a menu path
("Object > Path"), and `brief` to leave out each command's params text,
which is most of the catalogue; the params of one command are a filtered
listing away.

The family list scrolled with egui's floating scroll bar, which is drawn
over the rows' right ends, where each family's star is: with the pointer
there the bar widened over the star and a click went to the bar. The list
now takes the scroll bar the menus got for the same reason (#2086), slim
and in a column of its own; `widgets::list_scroll_style` holds it for both.
- "Font Style:" in Dimension Tool Options is Teckensnittsstil: Teckenstil
is already Character Style.
- The drawing-scale help reads "1:10 visar 1 enhet på sidan som 10".
- The layered-file fallback message and "Check an artboard to save" read
more naturally.
- "File › Place…" names the menu as the menus do (Fil, not Arkiv).
- The rows are reviewed, so the "machine-drafted; review welcome" note
above them goes.

A second colour scheme next to Modern: the neutral greys and blue accent of
earlier versions, on the same cards, corners and layout. Picked in
Preferences › User Interface › Color Scheme (pref uiColorScheme:
modern|classic); Accent Color is dimmed while Classic is chosen, which has
its own blue.
Seven app screenshots retaken at 2240x1400 (UI at 1.6x), two of them new: a 3D still life with the Revolve dialog (examples/still-life.vectorcraft) and a bracket drawing with linked dimensions (examples/bracket-drawing.vectorcraft). The still life also joins Made in VectorCraft. The older examples are saved again in the current native format; they render the same.
Layers ≡ and row menus collect art via assets.add; a layer id expands to the art under it (including sublayers) so MCP and the panel match Object › Collect for Export.
The list showed [None], [Registration] and the default swatches' names in
English. Names the app gives (the default swatches and colour groups) now
show in the UI's language where it has a `swatch` row for them; documents
keep the names as they are, and a name the user gave shows as written.

An ideographic space in a face without U+3000 was shaped with that face
and could set at zero width, removing an indent. Only what the layout
handles itself (tab, line and paragraph breaks) stays with the primary.

A corner whose anchor carries a handle (where a curve meets a line, or two
curves meet) was left sharp. It now gets Live Corners' round cut
(geom::corners, #1144), reaching `radius` along each side and trimming a
curved side. Corners between handle-less anchors are rounded exactly as
before, and a closed path still starts where its first corner's rounding
starts.

Symbol instances are placed through a transform as images are, so the
Transform effect now moves and copies both (transform_placed), sharing one
copy budget (MAX_COPY_OBJECTS). Copies of either stop before one reaches
past MAX_REACH, as a path's do (distort::within_reach).
Adds end-to-end export tests for a group's image copies in svg and pdf.
While the renderer drew a brushed path on its fast path, it drew the
pieces of brush art with that path still set as the object being
drawn. cached_stroke and fill_path_gradient then kept the outlines and
gradient slices of the pieces' strokes under the brushed path and the
address of each piece's stroke. The entries held the brushed path and
not the pieces, so a piece made later could take the address of an
earlier piece's stroke and be drawn with that piece's outline. The
instances of a symbol and the copies of a live repeat replace each
other's brush art, so it is made again for each of them in every
frame, and every brushed path gets new brush art when the document's
brushes change. In a test, a renderer drawing three instances of a
symbol whose art holds a path brushed with a scatter brush of a
stroked square drew frames that differed from a new renderer's in 316
to 1,140 pixels.
The two caches now keep only the strokes of the object being drawn. With
vectorcraft-cli bench at 2880x1800 on 8 threads, 2,000 instances of a
symbol of eight brushed paths took 203.4 ms a frame on main and 155.9 ms
with this change. 2,000 groups of the same paths, for which main keeps
the brush art and the outlines of its strokes between frames, took 133.7
ms on main and 156.9 ms with this change. The peak working set of a
bench run at 2880x1800 went from 609 MiB to 127 MiB on the instances and
from 331 MiB to 210 MiB on the groups.
