Window › Symbol Libraries and the Symbols panel's Symbol Libraries Menu open each symbol library
in a library panel of its own, on the shared library panel code the swatch and graphic style
libraries use (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/manage-objects/traces-mockups-symbols/create-or-import-symbol-libraries.html,
.../symbols-panel-options.html, .../create-and-place-symbols.html).
- Basic Shapes: one original library generated in code (circle, squares, triangle, diamond,
hexagon, star, burst, arrow); no other app's libraries.
- A click adds a library symbol to the document's Symbols as one undo step, with its Symbol
Options and the resources it uses (nested symbols, patterns, swatches, brushes, graphic styles,
images), and makes it the current symbol; one already there isn't added again, a clash of
names numbers the library's. Shift/Cmd-clicks select for Add to Symbols. Dragging a library
symbol onto the canvas adds it and places an instance there, in the same step.
- Save Symbols… (library menu, Window menu) and Save Symbol Library… (Symbols panel menu) write
the document's symbols as a .vectorcraft document holding only them, into the user library
folder (User Defined, window.userSymbolLibrary1-10) or a file; Other Library… reads the symbols
of any document VectorCraft opens, and a file it can't read is an error.
Commands: symbol.libraries, symbol.library, symbol.addFromLibrary (place, x, y),
symbol.saveLibrary, symbol.loadLibrary; UI: window.symbolLibrary (.other), ui.saveSymbolLibrary
(dialog saveSymbolLibrary). i18n rows in every complete catalog; docs updated.
Step 3 of the Rectangular Grid tool and Arc tool help pages
(https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/tool-techniques/rectangular-grid-tool.html,
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/tool-techniques/arc-tool.html)
and the Tools page (https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/tools.html)
say a double-click on the tool opens its Tool Options. For these four tools
the double-click (tool.options, and Enter once #2891 lands) said the tool
had no options (#2691).
The Tool Options are the tool's click dialog in dialogs/shapes.rs, opened
without a place to draw (shapes::open_options; a `__toolOptions` field
marks it), as the review of #2979 asked: no copied form code. Its OK runs
tool.setOption and draws nothing; Cancel changes nothing. The grids' dialogs
are titled Rectangular Grid / Polar Grid Tool Options there. The options
are what the next drag draws with and what a click's dialog opens at:
- Line Segment: Length and Angle (now kept by the tool and used by the
click dialog) and Fill Line (new: shape.line {fill: true} gives the line
the current fill; the click dialog has it too);
- Arc: lengths, Reference Point, Type, Base Along, Slope, Fill Arc;
- the grids: dividers, skews and switches, plus the Default Size and
Reference Point, now kept by the tool (width, height, reference) for the
click dialog; a drag leaves them out of its command.
The grids' Reference Point is drawn only as the 9-point locator (it also
showed as a plain number field).
New strings (Rectangular Grid Tool Options, Polar Grid Tool Options, Fill
Line) have rows in all 24 catalogs.
Verification:
toolbar::tests::double_clicking_the_line_arc_and_grid_tools_opens_their_tool_options
double-clicks each tool's toolbar button: the dialog and its title, Cancel
leaves the next drag as it was, OK draws nothing, the next drag uses the
option and a click's dialog opens at it (a grid at its Default Size);
line_segment_options_and_fill_line, grid_default_size_is_an_option_the_drag_leaves_out,
fill_line_gives_a_new_line_the_current_fill. Grid dialog tests now expect
the stored Default Size. Live: double-clicking the Rectangular Grid tool in
the release build opens Rectangular Grid Tool Options; OK with 2 and 3
dividers, then a drag, draws a 3 × 4 grid.
The Simplify help page says a path can be simplified whole or "a specific
path region with the Direct Selection tool"
(https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/modify-paths/manually-simplify-paths.html).
Simplify refitted every selected path whole, whatever part of it was
direct-selected.
object.path.simplify now looks at each path's direct selection: the
segments picked as segments, or else every segment with both anchors
selected. Each run of consecutive selected segments is refitted on its own
(vectorcraft_pathops::simplify_part) between its two end anchors, which stay
where they are with their handles on the side away from the run; every
other anchor and segment stays exactly as it was. A closed path's run may
cross its start point (the path then starts at the run's end anchor),
separate runs on one path simplify independently in one undo step, and the
runs stay direct-selected (as segments when segments were picked). A path
with only lone anchors selected still simplifies whole, as before, and
wholePaths: true simplifies partly selected paths whole. The slider, its
preview, Auto-Simplify and the Simplify dialog all run the command, so
they act on the part too. simplify_with now shares its run fitting with
the part refit (same results).
Verification: crates/engine/src/tests_simplify_part.rs (unselected anchors
and segments equal bit for bit, run end anchors fixed, the run within the
tolerance, two runs equal to each simplified alone in one undo step, a
closed run across the start point, picked segments, wholePaths, slider
preview and Auto-Simplify, a run that can't be simpler records no step)
and simplify_slider_and_dialog_simplify_only_the_direct_selected_part_of_a_path
(the slider's preview, Enter and the dialog's OK). Live: the release build's
slider at level 20 on a 91-anchor wave with anchors 30–60 selected refits
only that stretch.
The Simplify help page says the slider starts at an auto-simplified value
(https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/draw-shapes-and-paths/modify-paths/manually-simplify-paths.html).
The slider opened at a fixed level 50 (1 pt), whatever the size of the
selection, so the first preview was the same tolerance for a 30 pt icon as
for a 1000 pt drawing.
The level Auto-Simplify picks for the selection is now one engine function,
vectorcraft_engine::auto_simplify_level (the existing 1/400-of-the-longer-
side rule in vectorcraft_pathops), which object.path.simplify {auto: true}
and the slider's opening fields both use. Object › Path › Simplify (and
ui.menuDialog, the Properties and contextual task bar buttons, which go
through the same menu dialog) opens the slider there, and the canvas
previews that result; Auto-Simplify still moves the slider back to it.
The retained Simplify dialog path is unchanged.
Verification: simplify_slider_opens_at_the_auto_simplify_level_of_the_selection
opens the slider on 1140, 285 and 28.5 pt waves (levels 35, 55, 89) and
checks the preview is exactly object.path.simplify {auto: true}'s result;
without the change it fails with level 50 != 35, and
simplify_opens_a_slider_whose_drag_previews_fewer_or_more_points fails with
{"level": 50} != {"level": 55}. cargo xtask ci: all 10 steps passed.
Hyphenation... and Justification... already shipped upstream (#2310,
#2755). This ports the part of the archived fork PR #10 that upstream
lacked: a paragraph's Justification > Auto Leading now also sets
- the Leading the Character (and Properties) panel shows for Auto type,
blank where the selected paragraphs differ;
- the leading Alt+Up/Down (type.step) steps from, per paragraph (a run
spanning paragraphs is split so each takes its own);
- the lines Fill with Placeholder Text counts in area type.
ParaStyle::effective_leading mirrors the layout (exactly
CharStyle::effective_leading at the default 120%). Tests in doc, engine
and ui-egui; parity docs no longer list Hyphenation/Justification as
missing.

The planar map found each edge's source input by scanning every input
segment, and the face around each hole or merge point by scanning every
face, so it was quadratic in the segments; the Shape Builder therefore
gave up past 4096 segments (traced or type outlines) and offered whole
shapes. Index outline segments and faces by bounds on both axes
(RectIndex), walk an edge's segments lazily when finding its leaving
angle, and raise SHAPE_BUILDER_MAX_SEGMENTS to 65,536. Divide with open
paths shares the cap; its cap test now follows the constant.
Tests: a 20,000-segment blob cut by two lines, a 300-line hatch, the
index against a brute-force scan, and the existing cap test at the new
cap. Progress docs updated (G11, parity evidence, roadmap).

Exercise Selection-tool busy state before takeover and verify it is idle after tab activation, drop, Escape and outside release. Session::set_active already reconstructs the tool via reset_tool_for_doc_switch, so the reported missing-Up busy state does not reproduce and no additional synthetic release is needed.
Narrow documentation to the internal clipboard asserted by the regressions and correct the stationary-pointer sentence. All 10 cargo xtask ci gates pass.
Add the three Turkish catalog entries requested by the maintainer on #3479. Preserve upstream catalog additions and place existing tab-drag entries beside stable menu labels to avoid append conflicts. Update feature progress notes for all 24 catalogs.
Simplify an equivalent Effect Gallery selection predicate required by the Rust 1.95 clippy gate. Full cargo xtask ci passed all 10 checks, including tab-drag regressions and wasm.
Activate visible tabs after a delayed Selection drag and copy artwork through a document-scoped command without changing the clipboard or source. Cancel stale transfers, preserve pattern alignment and transparency, and insert into the editable destination context. Cover pointer gestures, resource rendering, input bounds and locked layers; translate the new labels and messages.
A workspace remembers the changes made in it: switching away keeps them
(UiState::workspace_changes, kept with the preferences), switching back
restores them, and Reset <name> returns to the saved layout. Saving a
workspace starts it with no changes; renaming keeps them, deleting drops
them, and deleting the current workspace shows Essentials as it was
left. Saved preferences recover a damaged remembered layout instead of
losing the whole file.
Split from #2965 as a reviewer asked.
