Older native files (.drawcraft or an older format version) open as
"<name> [Converted]" and Save asks for a .vectorcraft name instead of
overwriting them (preference appendConverted). Open Recent Files honours the
0-30 preference; empty slots are hidden (the native menu rebuilds when they,
saved views or User Defined libraries change). File > Document Color Mode is
one command, file.documentColorMode, converting through the colour settings;
choosing the current mode is not an edit, and object.convertDocumentColorMode
stays as an alias the command palette leaves out. New File > Show in Folder
(file.reveal; paths with spaces work on Windows). Native files store the view
they were saved with (Document.last_view, written at save time so it never
dirties the document) and reopen there.

A linked image (`ImageObject.link`, now a LinkInfo: absolute path, path relative to the document,
size, modification time, hash, page; old path strings still load) keeps a low-resolution preview
(`ImageBlob.proxy`, at most 256 px a side) that a native save writes in place of the pixels of
images only linked images show. Opening a native document reads the linked files again, looking
for each at its path, then relative to the document and by name in its folder: missing files
show their preview, modified ones are read again only with Update Links: Automatically.
`document.open` reports `missingLinks`, `modifiedLinks` and `updatedLinks`.
links.check reports each link's status, links.update reads modified files again and
links.relink points images at another file or at same-named files in a folder (each keeps its
bounds; one undo step). In the app, a document opened without its linked files asks about each
(Replace…, Ignore, Apply to All), then offers to update modified links when the preference asks.
The renderer caches previews apart from the file's pixels; the Eyedropper samples previews in
the object's pixel space.

Fill and stroke layers (and type characters' fill and stroke) carry an
overprint flag. object.setOverprint {fill?, stroke?, item?, ids?} sets it
(groups: their contents; type: its characters too; one undo step, none when
nothing changes) and attributes.info reads it back (null where mixed).
Overprint Preview and Separations Preview draw overprinting fills and strokes
with Multiply. The old Document.unknown["overprintBlack"] id list migrates to
the new flags on load; Overprint Black now sets the flags.

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).
