Effect › Distort › Glass… offered only its four built-in textures. The
reference app's Texture menu also has Load Texture, which takes an
image file as the glass surface.
The Glass dialog now has a Load Texture… button. It reads a PNG, JPEG,
GIF, WebP, TIFF, BMP, PSD or PSB file within the pixel allowance the
renderer draws images in, and the Texture menu gains Loaded Texture.
The effect stores the image's gray levels in `textureImage` as a
grayscale PNG in base64, so the document saves the texture with the
effect, and copies of the effect carry it. effect.apply and
effect.setParams take `textureImage` as {path}, {name, dataBase64} or
the stored string; any other value is an error.
The texture lies one image pixel per point at Scaling 100%, centered on
the object and repeated. Each pixel's luma is the surface's height,
from 0 for black to 1 pt for white, and a transparent pixel counts as
middle gray. A Glass without `textureImage` draws and saves as before.

A PDF, PDF-compatible .ai or .ait opened from its pages had an empty
File Info. Nothing read the file's document information
dictionary or its XMP packet, so file.info reported no author,
description or keywords, even for a PDF that VectorCraft exported.
vectorcraft_pdf::file_info reads both. The author, description,
keywords, copyright status, notice and URL and the created and modified
dates come from the XMP packet (dc:creator, dc:description, dc:subject
or pdf:Keywords, xmpRights:Marked, dc:rights, xmpRights:WebStatement,
xmp:CreateDate, xmp:ModifyDate), else from the dictionary's Author,
Subject, Keywords, CreationDate and ModDate. document.open,
file.newFromTemplate and file.revert put each value through file.info's
checks and leave out a value that file.info refuses. A packet that is
not well-formed XML leaves the dictionary's values. File Info does not
set the title, and a file restored from the document it carries keeps
that document's File Info. vectorcraft-pdf depends on roxmltree 0.21,
which usvg already brings into Cargo.lock.

Make and Edit choose the Intertwine tool: hovering highlights the overlap
area under the pointer, a click swaps which object is on top there, and a
path drawn around overlaps (Shift: a rectangle) arranges every overlap
inside it; Esc or Enter goes back to the tool chosen before. The overlap
faces move to vectorcraft-tools, shared by the tool and the command.
Clicks inside a raised area pick the member drawn on top there, the
Object menu gets the Intertwine submenu, and the new labels and the
predicate message are translated in the complete catalogs. docs/gaps.md

The default `text` features of vello_cpu (glyph runs, through glifo) and
usvg (fontdb, harfrust 0.12, skrifa 0.44 and its read-fonts 0.41) build
another copy of the font stack into the engine, next to the workspace's
skrifa 0.47 and harfrust 0.13. Neither is used: the renderer draws the
glyph outlines vectorcraft-text gives it, and SVG import reads <text>
from the XML itself and never gives usvg a font (usvg leaves out text it
has no font for).
- vello_cpu: its default features but `text` (std, png, u8_pipeline),
plus f32_pipeline as before.
- usvg: `svgz` only, for gzipped SVG images inside an SVG; `text`,
`system-fonts`, `memmap-fonts` and `writer` are off. text_layout.rs uses
usvg as a reference viewer with a font, so crates/svg turns `text` on as
a dev-dependency feature, as crates/pdf does for krilla's `simple-text`.
- A test pins `svgz`: SVGZ images, linked or as a data URL, import as
vector art.

The renderer kept the shapes it drew for plug-in effects while the
object stayed the same. When a plug-in was installed for the first
time, installed again or removed, a renderer that had drawn the object
went on drawing the shapes from before the change.
When the plug-in registry's revision changes, the renderer now drops
the effect geometry and the effect art of objects with a plug-in
effect, and the cull bounds of every object that is or holds a symbol
instance or an object with a plug-in effect. Each thread then drops the
pattern tiles whose art has a plug-in effect or shows symbols or
patterns. The renderer adds the revision to the inputs of a raster
when its content has a plug-in effect, or shows symbols or patterns
while the document's symbol or pattern art has one, and to the key of
a live object's evaluation when the object, or an object it shows, has
a plug-in effect.
With other builds running, a temporary release test timed that key for
the 400 live objects in each of three documents at 11 to 609
microseconds a frame, against 9 to 433 before.

In the web build, now_ms() in crates/ui-egui/src/lib.rs returned 0.0.
The status bar read "render 0.0 ms · ui 0.0 ms" however long a frame
took, and the Layers panel's budget of 8 ms for the row thumbnails it
renders in a frame never ran out, so only its limit of 16 thumbnails
applied.
now_ms() now returns the milliseconds since its first call, read from
the browser's performance.now() through web-time, which the build
already has through eframe. The desktop clock is unchanged. In Chrome,
after a pan frame of 750 ms over a document of 50,000 paths, the status
bar now reads "render 750.7 ms". The Layers panel now renders the
thumbnails of 24 groups of 2,000 paths one per frame, where main
rendered nine of them in one frame of 217 ms. The canvas has no render
worker in the web build, so it still renders on the UI thread and draws
the same pixels.

hayro (0.7.2 and 0.8.0 alike) inflates Flate and LZW data with no ceiling, so a few megabytes
of zeros ask for gigabytes, and applies a predictor before checking its parameters: Columns 0
divides by zero (a panic, an abort on the web), a huge Columns allocates a row that large (an
abort everywhere). Both happen inside the reader, before any of our limits.
A file is refused ("a stream in it would decode to more than 256 MB, or its decode parameters
can't be applied") when a stream's decode parameters ask for a predictor the reader can't apply,
or when it decodes past 256 MB through Flate, LZW, run-length and the ASCII encodings before
them, decoded here with a ceiling (only streams large enough to get there are decoded). Every
object's stream is looked at once the file is open (decrypted, references followed), with the
inline images of anything that can be content; object and cross-reference streams, which the
reader decodes while it opens the file, are looked at first in the file's text.
hayro-syntax 0.8.0 reads arrays and dictionaries 64 deep and no deeper wherever they are (the
file's text, object streams, the content of pages, forms, patterns, glyphs and masks), walks the
page tree without recursion and follows a chain of object streams once: what 0.7.2 overflowed
the stack on. hayro-interpret 0.8.0 comes with it (a new device interface: the importer's device
takes it as before). Our raw pre-scan of the file's text and page content goes: the reader's own
cap covers more, and the scan miscounted the bytes of unfiltered binary streams.
What 0.8.0 still builds by recursion with no cap is refused when the file opens: functions and
colour spaces built on themselves or on one another more than 16 deep, and calculator functions
whose procedures nest more than 64 deep. The import runs on a 16 MB thread, as the SVG importer
does.
hayro-syntax 0.8 turns on flate2's zlib-rs backend, which the whole app then deflates with: a
compressed native file is the same gzip stream as before (header and data), but its deflate
blocks now depend on how the data is fed, so the streaming test checks the header and the
unpacked data instead of the bytes.
Fix#1726 with idle, absolute line and reply-write deadlines and connection-slot guards. Add real-loopback regressions and document reconnect behavior.
Validated with cargo xtask ci: all seven gates passed; 6156 tests passed, zero failed, seven existing ignored.
0.9.1 enforces the decompressed size of each block, which 0.9.0 didn't
(memory exhaustion on crafted .ai / Affinity zstd data). The manifests now ask
for at least 0.9.1.
VectorCraft does not run scripts written for the reference app, and
File › Scripts held only the disabled Other Script…. File › Scripts ›
Check Script… picks a .jsx, .jsxinc or .jsxbin file, reads it without
running any of it, and shows a report: what the script needs (the
script language's own objects, the document model, files, menu
commands, dialogs, or features only the reference app has), what it
would do outside the document, the menu-command strings it passes, the
document-model member chains and type names it uses, its directives,
the files it includes, and the problems that would stop it loading.
Copy Report copies the report as JSON. File › Open and drag-and-drop
show the report for those files too.
- vectorcraft-scriptcheck, a new Standalone crate with no
dependencies, holds the checker: a lexer for ECMAScript 3 with E4X
literals and the #name and //@name directive lines, and an analysis
of the tokens that follows variables, function scopes and the files
a script includes. It never recurses: open brackets, the levels of
an XML literal and the function bodies being read are kept on stacks
capped at 4,096. It reads at most 8 MiB of a file and 32 MiB with the
included files, follows 64 included files 16 deep, looks up at most
1,024 paths for them, keeps 1,000 entries in a list, tracks 1,000
variables holding member chains and 1,000 holding File objects, and
cuts echoed text to 120 characters. A compiled script is reported as
compiled and isn't read.
- script.check (engine, a query) takes path, data or dataBase64. With a
path and includes: true, it reads the files the #include lines name
from inside the script's folder, through the automation read root,
and when the script or one of those files assigns a member chain or a
File object to a variable, the check treats the variable as holding
it in every file. It doesn't follow absolute names, names, folders or
links that lead out of the folder, names or folders longer than 4,096
bytes, or JSINCLUDE, and it reads only regular files.
- ui.checkScript shows the report (dialog scriptCheck). File › Open
lists Scripts (.jsx, .jsxinc, .jsxbin) and sends a script's path to
script.check, which reads at most 8 MiB of it.
The language rules come from ECMA-262 3rd edition and ECMA-357 2nd
edition. The directive, platform and document-model root names come
from the public JavaScript Tools Guide and scripting guide pages that
catalog.rs cites by URL, and executeMenuCommand, doScript, loadAction,
unloadAction and selectTool come from the public forum posts cited
there; only names are used. Every script in the tests is written from
scratch with invented names.

Create: Strokes (the Outline preset, or the option) traced lines along the pixel skeleton: right to a pixel,
with a width counted in pixels, and fitted by a separate, older fitter.
- Each skeleton point is moved to the middle of the line's ink, read from the image across the line: every
pixel counts as much ink as its colour is the line's rather than the paper's, the ink's centroid is the
middle and its sum the width (an anti-aliased or blurred line says both to a fraction of a pixel).
- The stroke width is the median of those widths, no longer a whole number of pixels.
- Each end goes where the ink ends, less the half width a round cap adds.
- Centre lines are fitted as outlines are: a straight line is two anchors, corners stay corners, Snap Curves To
Lines levels them. The old Douglas-Peucker and simplify fitter, and the crate's pathops dependency, go.
Outline on the thin-line inputs, all sizes and variants (docs/image-trace-quality.md), before -> after:
- painted outline 0.310 -> 0.055 px off on average; 81 -> 14 anchors for five lines
- centre line 0.295 -> 0.052 px from the true centre line; stroke width 0.13 -> 0.02 px off; 18.4 -> 2.7
anchors a stroke (blurred, noisy and scanned lines: 2.0 each; aliased: 4.6)
- largest distance 1.84 -> 2.94 px: the square ends of a 10 px line under a round cap
Presets without Create: Strokes are unchanged.
On Windows, perf printed "load average ?": load_average runs sysctl
or reads /proc/loadavg, and Windows has neither. The warning for a
busy machine could not print, so a run over budget on a busy machine
failed, where macOS and Linux warn and exit 0. perf --deep printed no
memory rows, because rss_mb runs ps. --help did not list --deep.
On Windows, perf now reads GetSystemTimes twice, one second apart,
and its first line gives the cores busy on average over that second
where macOS and Linux give the load average. It warns above three
quarters of the cores, as on macOS and Linux: with all 32 logical
processors of a test machine kept busy, the line read "cores busy
32.0" and a run with three budgets over exited 0. The --deep memory
rows give the working set (GetProcessMemoryInfo). Both calls use
winsafe 0.0.29, which Cargo.lock already lists for the desktop app;
the CLI depends on it on Windows with the kernel and psapi features.
The help lists --deep and says that a run over budget on a busy
machine exits 0. perf's report on macOS and Linux does not change.
The three 3D types besides Revolve, as live effects in the three-d crate,
drawn as shaded vector faces by the canvas, SVG/PDF export and Expand
Appearance alike, from the public 3D and Materials documentation:
- Extrude & Bevel: depth (0-2000 pt), twist, taper, solid or hollow caps,
and bevels in six original cross-sections (classic, rounded, cove, step,
ogee) with width, height, repeat, spacing, inside and both sides.
- Inflate: the shape as a membrane under pressure (a Poisson solve held at
zero along the outline and holes), so it rises vertically from the edge
and rounds without creases; volume, depth and both sides. Steep cells
near the outline are refined without cracks.
- Rotate: every fill and stroke turned in 3D and shaded as one plane.
All three share Revolve's view and lighting parameters, the rotation and
light gizmos (turning about the art's centre) and a dialog with Object,
Rotation and Lighting tabs, with Position presets (Front ... Isometric
Bottom, our own values). An object takes one 3D effect. Inflate cuts the
grid cells that straddle a hole's edge with pathops, hence the new
pathops -> three-d layer order.

On a hybrid laptop whose Wayland compositor runs on the discrete GPU
(Hyprland with AQ_DRM_DEVICES naming the NVIDIA card first), the built-in
panel still hangs off the integrated GPU, so the display rule put it first,
and the window stayed empty: the compositor took the frames and showed
nothing, with no error, so neither the restart on a failed adapter (#502)
nor the first-frame watch (#964) noticed.
Which GPU drives a display stands in for which GPU the compositor draws
with. Under Wayland the compositor says so itself: the main_device of its
linux-dmabuf feedback (version 4), the device it imports client buffers on,
which Mesa's Vulkan device-select layer reads for the same purpose.
compositor_gpu.rs asks for it on a short-lived connection, maps the dev_t
to PCI ids through /sys/dev/char, and under Automatic adapter_order ranks
that adapter ahead of the display GPUs. No answer (X11, an older compositor,
a GPU no adapter matches) leaves the existing rules in charge; a user's own
choice, WGPU_ADAPTER_NAME and the restart skip list still come first.
wayland-client and wayland-protocols are already in the tree through winit;
they become direct Linux-only dependencies.
These scripts don't separate words with spaces, and lines only broke at
spaces, hyphens and CJK characters, so a Thai paragraph in area type ran
on to the next space (or was cut wherever it overflowed). Each
paragraph's glyphs now carry the word ends ICU4X's line segmenter finds
in text of those scripts (its dictionaries on the desktop, its far
smaller LSTM models on the web), and a line may break after them as
after a space. Other text keeps its own breaks, and clusters (a
consonant with its vowel and tone marks) still never split.

The Type tool's Left and Right arrows and Delete moved one code point at
a time, so the caret could stop between a Thai consonant and its vowel
or tone marks (or inside an accented letter or emoji sequence), where
typing or deleting splits the cluster. They now step over extended
grapheme clusters. Backspace still takes back one character at a time,
as Thai typists expect for a mistyped tone mark.

The crash: rfd's blocking dialog ran -[NSSavePanel runModal] inside
winit's event handler; when a resize of the panel ends, AppKit runs the
closures winit queued meanwhile, and winit's re-entrancy panic fires
inside an Objective-C block, where it can't unwind, so the app aborts.
As PhotoCraft (#673) and PdfCraft (#145) ship it:
- macOS: picks::ask shows an rfd::AsyncFileDialog as a sheet on the
window (beginSheetModalForWindow returns at once); a waiter thread
sends the paths and wakes the window. A pick asked outside an entry is
refused and logged instead of running a modal. Linux keeps its thread
(#592) and now also wakes the window; Windows is unchanged.
- Nine paths that asked outside an entry now run as entries: Load
Profile, Swatches and Graphic Styles Other Library, the shortcut
editor's Import and Export, and the presets dialogs' Export.
- While a dialog is open: the macOS menu bar is inert except Hide, Hide
Others and Minimize; Quit, Close, Close All and the close button are
refused; Finder/Dock opens and the IME discard wait; another dialog
is refused with a status message. The answer re-activates the
document that asked (by uid) and Save Changes finds its document by
uid; a frame guard clears a stale picks entry after a recovered panic.
- ui.inspect reports fileDialog.
Squashed onto current main by the maintainer (with main's automation
sandbox wrappers and font-name menus kept).

- Version 0.8.0 -> 0.9.0 (cargo xtask version set; Cargo.lock refreshed).
- release.yml: new linux-riscv64 job, ported from GridCraft. Cross-compiles
riscv64gc-unknown-linux-gnu on ubuntu-24.04 against riscv64 -dev packages
from ports.ubuntu.com (the same set the linux job installs), packages a
tar.gz, and runs vectorcraft-cli --version under qemu-riscv64. The draft
release job now needs it, so its tarball is uploaded and in SHA256SUMS.
- packaging/linux/package.sh: CROSS_ARCH / CROSS_TARGET / CROSS_COMPILE /
EMULATOR support, as in GridCraft.
- docs/releasing.md: list the riscv64 artifact.
Checked locally: cargo check -p vectorcraft -p vectorcraft-cli --target
riscv64gc-unknown-linux-gnu, cargo fmt --check, actionlint, shellcheck.

The sweep under Offset Path (linesweeper 0.4) never finished on some
miter offsets: on the reported glyph and on a synthetic outline it kept
allocating until the app ran out of memory. linesweeper 0.5 fixes that
infinite loop ("Fixed an infinite loop", 0.5.0 changelog), and builds
without changes.
0.5 can hand back a curve piece that doesn't follow the input curve it
was cut from. In the Shape Builder rosette test, a contour runs out along
one petal and back by such a piece, which became a 59 x 4 pt hole in the
merged shape. Tidy::repair rebuilds a piece that strays from the one input
curve through both its ends as that curve's exact sub-curve (input curves
are indexed by their bounds' left edge, so it stays cheap). The there-and-
back then encloses nothing and is dropped as a sliver. Pieces on their
curve, and pieces whose ends two input curves pass through (a real lens),
are left alone.

AppKit places close, minimize and zoom in a standard title bar, shorter
than the 44-point app bar they sit over, so they rode high on it. They
are now moved to the middle of the bar, inset from its left as far as
from its top, with the title bar container made as tall as the bar so
they stay clickable. AppKit lays the title bar out again on resize and
when leaving full screen, so the placement runs every frame and sets a
frame only when it is out of place. The app bar keeps the room the
buttons take, measured, instead of a fixed 78 points.

A /ForeignObject (non-native art: the content of a placed PDF, which
Illustrator shows but doesn't edit) was left out with a note. The
letterhead of #861 keeps its fan of swooshes that way: a radial gradient
in a 3-point PDF, scaled 271 times and clipped by the swoosh paths, so
the page lost its main graphic.
The reader now decodes the object's ASCII85 /Data, has the PDF importer
read the PDF, and fits its art to the object's box as a group named
"Non-native art": /Bounds measured from /Origin with y down, then
/RTransform, which lands exactly on the clipping paths around both
objects of that file; the PDF's content is kept in its own y-up
coordinates, so it is flipped into the box. Ids are the document's and
the PDF's swatches stay unlinked; its images join the document by
content key. A PDF that can't be read is left out with a note, as
before.
The EPS crate now uses the PDF crate (same layer; allowed in the layer
check like render and metafile).

Double-clicking a brush in the Brushes panel (or the panel menu's Brush
Options…) opens its options. Calligraphic Brush Options: Angle,
Roundness and Size, each Fixed, Random or Pressure with its Variation,
over live previews of the nib and of a stroke. Bristle Brush Options:
Shape and the bristle sliders. OK runs brush.options; strokes painted
with the brush update.
The Paintbrush records the pen pressure along a stroke (path.freehand
takes [x, y, pressure] points), and a Calligraphic brush with Pressure
variation changes its nib along the stroke, from the value less the
variation at the lightest pressure to the value plus it at the heaviest.
Brushes saved before keep their Random variation. Pen pressure doesn't
reach the app on macOS yet (winit 0.30 reports none there).

On a desktop with a Ryzen integrated GPU without a monitor and an NVIDIA
card driving both monitors, Automatic (power saving on Windows) picked
the integrated GPU; Windows presented every frame across adapters and
the integrated GPU's driver reset, losing the graphics device or taking
every monitor down for minutes (same bug as pdfcraft#378).
Automatic now asks the system which GPU drives which display (Windows:
EnumDisplayDevices through winsafe; Linux: /sys/class/drm) and ranks the
GPU driving a display, and among those the primary display's, ahead of
the power preference. Where the system can't say, or no adapter's PCI
ids match (OpenGL, Metal), the order is the power preference's as
before, so nothing gets worse. Power Saving and High Performance chosen
by the user, and WGPU_POWER_PREF, keep ordering by kind alone.
The log now lists the display GPUs, which adapters drive a display, and
the adapter drawn on with the reason, the first question in every
black-window report. Tests cover the device-id parser, the rankings
(desktop with all monitors on the discrete GPU, hybrid laptop, a monitor
on each GPU, no match), the sysfs reader and a live EnumDisplayDevices
call.

The font scan read only the macOS font folders and the Additional
Fonts Folder, so fonts that apps and font managers register with
CoreText from their own folders were missing from the font menus, and
exports set such type in the fallback font. CoreText's font manager
lists them with the installed fonts.
- `mac_fonts.rs` lists the files of the fonts the font manager has
available (`CTFontManagerCopyAvailableFontURLs`, through
objc2-core-text), keeping only file URLs as `open_documents.rs` does
(#433). The desktop app and `vectorcraft-cli` install it as they
install the DirectWrite lister on Windows, and the scan reads the
files outside the font folders in place.
- The scan leaves out faces with no outlines the font engine draws (no
glyf, CFF, CFF2 or VARC table), on every platform. CoreText lists
Apple's PingFang UI interface font (macOS 27), whose outlines are in
an hvgl table; if the scan cataloged it, PingFang SC would count as
installed, and Chinese characters in fallback text, Japanese kanji
included, would draw blank.
- Tests: the list holds the installed fonts by full path, a font
registered from another folder is listed while it is registered, and
a face without outlines the engine draws isn't cataloged.
Desktop builds made with CRAFT_FONTS_DIR now load craft-fonts' 12 Arabic families into the document font database. Noto Sans Arabic comes first and is the fallback for Arabic text. Cairo, Tajawal, Almarai, IBM Plex Sans Arabic, Noto Kufi Arabic, Amiri, Alexandria, Fustat, Reem Kufi, Aref Ruqaa and Gulzar can be picked by name from the font menus.
The web build doesn't embed these fonts because they would make the wasm too large. It fetches them from beside the wasm instead:
- crates/text/web-fonts.txt lists each face as startup or background.
- build.rs turns that list into vectorcraft_text::WEB_FONTS, with each face's URL (fonts/<sha16>/<file>) and SRI hash taken from the craft-fonts manifest.
- packaging/web/copy-fonts.sh, a Trunk post_build hook, copies the font files and their OFL licences there.
- apps/vectorcraft-web/src/fonts.rs fetches Noto Sans Arabic before the app starts, so Arabic text never shows as boxes. It loads the other faces in the background and logs `web font …` for any that fail.
Because fonts can now arrive after startup, the Type tool's layout cache also checks the font database's generation, so text lays out again when new fonts arrive.
_headers and .htaccess serve fonts/* as font/ttf and cache it as immutable. packaging/web/README.md and docs/development.md explain the fonts folder, and ROADMAP.md lists the Arabic typefaces under Type. Also adds Ahmed Moussa to contributors/people.toml.

The DirectWrite font lister (#594) was installed in the desktop app only:
`vectorcraft-cli` (convert, run, MCP) didn't see fonts that font services
such as Adobe Fonts load on Windows, so its exports set such type in a
fallback font.
- The CLI shares the app's `system_fonts.rs` and installs it first thing
on Windows (not the win7 build). The text crate stays free of unsafe
code; the CLI denies unsafe code instead of forbidding it, so the
shared module's own allowance applies.

Font services load their fonts with GDI at run time, from files in their
own folders, without installing them: neither the font folders nor the
registry list them, so the font scan never saw them. DirectWrite's system
font collection holds them since Windows 10 1607.
- vectorcraft-text: `set_platform_font_files` lets the app name font files
the platform knows; each scan and each check for installed fonts asks
again and reads those outside the font folders. A file named by itself
is read whatever its extension (font services keep fonts in files
without one).
- The desktop app lists the local files of DirectWrite's system font
collection on Windows (`system_fonts.rs`, through the windows crate
already in the build), read in place.
- The check for fonts installed while the app was in the background runs
on a thread: DirectWrite's check for updates takes about 50 ms.

- Linux: no more startup crash on desktops whose compositor runs on another
GPU (#502, #551); the window renders on the desktop's GPU and retries
the next one instead of crashing.
- Windows: rendering through DirectX 12 first, fixing the black flicker on
Intel GPUs (#545).
- Italian interface (#514).
- macOS: the menus live in the system menu bar.
- Panels, panel groups and the Tools panel undock into floating panels (#495).
- Live Corners on any path's corners: stars, polygons, pen paths (#511).
- Drawing tools snap to Smart Guides as the Selection tool does (#506).
- Pen: Cmd/Ctrl edits the path being drawn, Alt reshapes segments, drags
out of the first anchor always close (#494, #501); Convert buttons for
whole paths (#504).
- Right-click a ruler to change the document's units; the Control bar's
Transform link opens the Transform panel.
- Object > Image Trace > Make traces with the Default preset (#543).
- Edit menu Select All, Cut, Copy and Paste act on a focused field (#516).
- Japanese UI: new type starts top-to-top with em box centre alignment (#432).
- PDF/.ai import keeps type strokes, wrapped lines and layer order (#508);
EPS import fixes (#498, #505).
- macOS 27: only file URLs are opened (#433); Linux: the Paste menu no
longer freezes on an unresponsive clipboard owner (#510).
