effect.apply and effect.setParams stored any string as the color of
Drop Shadow, Inner Glow, Outer Glow and Shift to Color. When the
effect could not read it, it drew its default color with no message,
so a typo such as #ff00 in the Drop Shadow dialog turned the shadow
black.
The commands now refuse such a color before they edit, with
"`color` must be a #rrggbb color", and the document and its undo
history stay as they were. Hex colors, the five named colors,
[r, g, b] and color objects still pass. The check runs in the
commands, so the app, command.batch steps and replayed journals get
it too. The effect dialog's OK shows the error and keeps the dialog
open, with Preview on or off. Saved documents open as before.

A raster export warns that "an image couldn't be decoded and is
missing from the picture" when the count of failed decodes rose while
it drew. A pattern fill draws from a tile kept for each thread, and a
tile taken from that cache draws none of its art. Only the export that
made the tile counted the image, and later exports of the document gave
no warning although their pictures lacked the image too. The raster
kept for a blurred or filtered object had the same fault: the renderer
that draws pattern tiles keeps those rasters from one tile to the next,
so a tile drawn again took such an object from its raster and counted
nothing.
A kept tile and a kept effect raster now store how many decodes failed
on their thread while they were made, and each draw from them adds that
number to the count again.
A style captured from text left out the attributes that the text's
JSON skips at their defaults, such as the Hyphenation options, the
Composer, tab stops, Auto kerning and the character alignment.
Redefining a paragraph or character style from text set
back to the defaults therefore did not reach the text using the
style: a paragraph that had the old Hyphen Limit or Single-line
Composer from the style kept it. setAttrs dropped a default value it
was given in the same way.
New and Redefine now capture every attribute of the selected text,
and charStyle.setAttrs and paraStyle.setAttrs keep a default value.
When a style changes, text whose value equals the old definition's
takes the new value, a default included. Local overrides on text that
uses a style other than the Normal styles stay, and an attribute that
setAttrs leaves out still leaves the text's value alone. The Character
Styles and Paragraph Styles panels compare the attributes a style holds
with the same attributes of the selection. A paragraph style made from
type with Auto alignment no longer shows "+" on that type.
Two existing behaviors change. Applying a style made with New or
Redefine from text, without Clear Overrides, now also sets the
attributes that text had at their defaults, such as Auto kerning, no
OpenType features, the Every-line Composer, no tab stops and the
default Hyphenation options. Redefining [Normal Paragraph Style] or
[Normal Character Style] from text gives every paragraph or run that
uses it those attributes too, so local values of them on that text are
reset.

Batch over data sets names each output file after the document and the
data set, as the reference app's File + Data Set Name option does. It
joined that name onto the destination folder as it was, and a data set
name can hold any character. A data set named a/b failed to save, and
one named a/../../x wrote its file outside the destination folder. On
Windows, one named c\d also failed to save, and one named e:f left an
empty file.
The data set's name now goes through file_part, which Export for
Screens uses for its file name prefix and a format row's suffix, so
output file names have - in place of /, \ and : from a data set's name.
When two data sets then give the same name, compared without case, the
later ones get -2, -3 and so on, as artboard file names do, through a
distinct_names helper split out of unique_file_names. This covers the
folder destination and Override Save/Export.

The Character panel's Small Caps, Superscript and Subscript buttons
were disabled, with "(on the roadmap)" tips, and always drawn off, and
the panel menu's items of the same names were disabled, although
text.setFormat and text.setRangeStyle already set smallCaps and
position. The reference app applies all three from the Character
panel menu.
The three buttons and menu items now turn small caps and the
superscript or subscript position on and off for the selected type, or
for the text the Type tool has selected, in Document Setup's
proportions. Turning Superscript on turns Subscript off, and turning
Subscript on turns Superscript off. They show as on when the first
selected character has the attribute, as the All Caps, Underline and
Strikethrough toggles do.
docs/mcp.md did not mention smallCaps and position; it now describes
them for text.setFormat and text.setRangeStyle.

An object whose art style had a Drop Shadow with Darkness (a csrc
other than 0 in the shadow filter's dictionary) came in as its drawn
look, with a warning that its appearance isn't editable yet. With a
Color shadow instead, the same object comes in as itself with its
fill, stroke and shadow.
The reader now reads such a shadow as Drop Shadow with shade
"darkness" and darkness set to the filter's dark value, a percentage
kept within 0 to 100, or 100 when the value is missing or not a
finite number. The shadow's other keys are read as for a shadow with Color,
and the object comes in as itself wherever it would with a shadow with
Color. A shadow with Color comes in with the same params as before.
The import fuzz's .ai tokens now include csrc and dark.

Each style run was shaped on its own, so restyling one character, even
only its fill, dropped the font's kerning pairs at the new run
boundaries. A fill change on the V of 40 pt "AVAV" moved it 0.56 pt and
moved the characters after it 1.12 pt. Manual kerning on a character
also dropped the font's kerning with the character before it.
Adjacent runs that differ only in fill, stroke, underline,
strikethrough, overprint, character style name, leading, baseline
shift, rotation, Character Alignment, kerning, or tracking (as long as
both values leave standard ligatures on or both turn them off) are now
shaped together, and each glyph takes those attributes from its own
run. The font's kerning pairs apply after characters with automatic
kerning: a manual value replaces the pair after its character, and the
pair before it stays, except before a character that All Caps or Small
Caps sets as two letters (ß as SS). A change of font, size, scale or
OpenType features still shapes the characters apart, and a ligature or
a mark still does not join characters in different styles.

SVG export wrote each style run of a line of live text as one <tspan>
and positioned the text again only after tabs and, on justified lines,
after word spaces. A viewer then spaced the characters inside the
<tspan> with the font's own advances, so it lost the letter gaps of a
Justify All line without word spaces, the gaps between the characters
of a justified Japanese line and the spacing that a Mojikumi Set
changes. On justified lines, the textLength of horizontally scaled type
also took in the justification space after it, so a viewer stretched
the glyphs into that space.
On a line that is justified or set with a Mojikumi Set, text_lines now
lays the text out again as point type without the Mojikumi Set to get
the advance a viewer gives each character. Each character that the
layout draws away from where a viewer would draw it starts a new
positioned <tspan>, and textLength and line anchors use the viewer's
widths. The last character of a horizontally scaled <tspan> takes its
width without the font's kerning against the next character. Other
lines, and lines written with Fewer <tspan> Elements, are written as
before.

The Simplified Chinese catalog had 20 `@msg` rows, against 714 to 718
in each catalog listed in COMPLETE_MESSAGES, so with the interface in
Simplified Chinese most status-bar and error messages showed in
English.
- zh-hans.tsv gains the 694 missing `@msg` rows in one block with a
header comment on its conventions: no final 。 unless the English
ends with a period, a space between Chinese and adjacent Latin
text, numbers or placeholders, and 、 between list items. The rows
use the catalog's existing terms (画板, 图稿, 编组, 描边, 色板, 实时上色,
图像描摹, 增效工具 ...).
- zh-hans joins COMPLETE_MESSAGES, so
complete_languages_translate_every_message and the narrower message
tests fail when a zh-hans message row is missing, and a new message
needs a zh-hans row.
- The registry comment, docs/development.md (which also gains Greek,
already in COMPLETE_MESSAGES), the zh-hans row of
docs/localization-parity.md, and the interface-languages line of
docs/target-app-parity.md (which also gains Czech, Greek, Hungarian,
Swedish and Finnish) list Simplified Chinese among the languages
that translate messages.
docs/type-parity.md and the Set type row of docs/roadmap.md still
listed the Hyphenation… options as missing, although the Hyphenation
dialog (#2310) sets them for each paragraph.
The type-parity row is now partial and names Words Longer Than, After
First, Before Last, Hyphen Limit, Hyphenation Zone and Hyphenate
Capitalized Words. Justification… stays missing. The Set type row of
roadmap.md lists only the justification options as missing. Its score
is unchanged. docs/target-app-parity.md and docs/gaps.md are left as
they are.
A syllable drawn with several glyphs that share one cluster, such as a
pre-base i matra and its consonant (कि), had a caret stop at the edge
of each glyph. A click just right of the matra, in the left half of
the syllable, put the caret after the syllable. byte_in_line now takes
one extent for each cluster, and type on a path compares the click
with the middle of the cluster, from the start of its first glyph to
the end of its last.
New tests with an installed OpenType Devanagari font check that क्ष
forms one conjunct glyph, that र्क draws the reph after its base, that
कि draws the matra before its consonant, that Ka with a nukta matches
the precomposed क़, and that each syllable is one cluster with the
arrow keys stopping at its ends. They print SKIPPED when no such font
is installed.

dataset.import read only commas between cells and refused a file whose
first header cell wasn't `name`. A value that didn't match its
variable's kind, and a repeated data set name, were reported with the
row's record number, which is not the file line after a blank line or a
quoted line break. A data set name over 255 characters gave no line.
- When the header row, read with tabs between cells, has a tab and no
comma outside quotes, tabs separate the cells. A quoted cell may then
hold tabs and commas.
- Without a `name` column every header cell is a variable, and the rows
take the first free names Data Set 1, Data Set 2 and so on, as Capture
Data Set and blank name cells do. A first header cell `name`, in any
case, still holds the data set names.
- Value errors, a repeated data set name and a name over 255 characters
give the file line the row starts on.
- The Variables panel's Import Data Sets… dialog also lists .tsv files.
- import_fuzz.rs imports random text, random bytes and mutated exports,
comma- and tab-separated, into a document with bound text, visibility
and graph variables, selects up to three of the imported data sets in
turn, and exports every data set.

file.print, print.preview and print.setup took print settings only as
settings, so an agent had to read a preset with print.presets.list and
copy its settings into the call. They now take preset, the name of
[Default] or of a saved print preset in any case. The preset's settings
are used instead of the document's, settings applies over them, and
print.setup saves them with the document as one undo step. An unknown
name is a parameter error that lists the presets. The app's file.print
with params passes preset on to the engine.

With a gradient stop selected, an Alt-click on a color swatch painted
the inactive Fill or Stroke, as it does with no stop selected. The
reference app's Default keyboard shortcuts page lists "Apply swatch
color to active (or selected) color stop: Alt-click swatch in the
Swatches panel" for the Gradient panel.
Now, when the active Fill or Stroke is a linear or radial gradient with
a selected stop, an Alt-click on a color swatch or a tint swatch
recolors that stop in one undo step, and the stop stays selected. The
stop changes as a drop of the same swatch on the Gradient panel's ramp
changes it (drop_color and dropped_link in panels/gradient.rs): it
becomes fully opaque, and a global or spot color or a tint stays
linked, so editing the swatch recolors the stop.
With a freeform gradient, the selected point takes the color through
paint.freeform.setPoint. With no stop or point selected, Alt-click
paints the inactive Fill or Stroke as before. The Fill and Stroke chip
popovers show the same swatches and behave the same.

TIFFs that store each channel as its own plane (PlanarConfiguration 2)
did not open, place or relink when they were CMYK or grayscale with
extra channels: the image decoder refuses planar CMYK, and the readers
for CMYK inks and for extra samples returned nothing for planar files.
The two readers now read every plane through the tiff crate and put
each pixel's samples together. A planar CMYK TIFF keeps its ink
amounts and is stored as a CMYK TIFF with each pixel's inks together,
at the file's resolution. Grayscale TIFFs with an alpha channel or
other extra channels, and CMYK TIFFs with alpha, read as their chunky
versions do.
A TIFF whose header claims more strips or tiles than the tiff decoder
can count is refused as too large to draw. The decoder multiplies
those counts without a check, which panics in builds with overflow
checks.
Part of #1466.

The controls that the shared widgets draw had no name in the
accessibility tree: icon, flat, primary, secondary and split buttons,
chips, toggles, checkboxes, radio buttons, tabs, sliders, the angle
dial, the Reference Point's squares, the spinner and preset arrows and
the searchable combo boxes. Screen readers announced each clickable one
as an unnamed element of unknown role, and a disabled icon button was
not in the tree. The Color Guide's library button, the Color Themes
Save button and the status bar's artboard buttons also had no name.
Each helper in widgets.rs except color_field now gives its response a
role, a name and its state. The name is the text, label or translated
tool tip the helper shows. The spinner, the preset arrow, the angle
dial, the harmony wheel and the Reference Point's squares, which show
none, are named "Step up or down", "Presets", "Angle", "Color wheel"
and Top Left to Bottom Right. A toggle, checkbox, radio button, tab or
Reference Point square reports whether it is on, an icon button reports
that it is pressed while it is lit, the angle dial reports its angle,
and a searchable combo box reports the text it shows. A checkbox or
radio button drawn without text is named by the label beside it. The
Tools panel's tool buttons, flyout rows and floating strips are named
by their tools' tool tips, with the active tool pressed. The title
bar's column toggle, the tear-off bars, a floating strip's close box
and the Color, Gradient and None buttons are named by their tool tips.
The status bar's First, Previous, Next and Last Artboard buttons now
have tool tips, and the Fill and Stroke chips' tool tips are
translated. The six new strings (the four artboard tips, "Color wheel"
and "Step up or down") have rows in every catalog.
split_button, chip_button, color_slider, channel_slider and the dialog
form's slider_field and slider_rail keep their arguments. New _named
variants beside them take the arrow's tool tip, the chip's tool tip or
the slider's name, and every caller in the tree uses them.

A CMYK document holding RGB colours or images separates them into CMYK on export, and dark ones come out as rich blacks. The export report now says how many there are.

The MCP server read one line, ran it and answered it before reading the next,
so notifications/cancelled was never seen during a call and every request
(even ping) waited behind a running export.
- vectorcraft_doc::cancel: a thread-local cancel token and progress sink that
long work polls. Checkpoints: PDF pages, PDF flattening, geometry bake,
raster-effect flattening, drawing objects, raster artboards, and before any
file is written. A cancelled command returns EngineError::Cancelled and
changes nothing.
- Server::serve reads on its own thread: notifications/cancelled drops a
queued request or stops the running one (no reply, as the MCP spec says),
engine-free requests (ping, the list methods, prompts/get) are answered at
once, a request that would wait behind a call running for 2 s is refused
with -32003 naming that call, and _meta.progressToken gets
notifications/progress (page n of m). Queue and output are bounded.
- The remote backend stops waiting for the app when the call is cancelled.
