- packaging/linux/package.sh: one verify_sha256 helper replaces the four
repeated printf|sha256sum -c pipelines.
- packaging/macos/package.sh: stapler_retry copies its positional
arguments into locals before use.
- swatch_options: f64::from(v) instead of v as f64 (same value; the
argument is an f32, so the conversion stays).
On a curved path each glyph was placed rigidly (turned to the tangent at
its middle), so its baseline ends stood off the curve and neighbours
turned by different angles: in scripts whose letters join, every join
opened into a notch. Measured with Arial on circles: at 29 pt on a
radius of 110 pt, 0.64 pt at the baseline and 1.24 pt at the height of
the joining stroke (a quarter of the size); 14.7 pt at 72 pt on a radius
of 60. Placing glyphs on the chord alone closes the baseline but leaves
about h (a_i + a_{i+1}) / 2R above it (0.71 pt here), so joined glyphs
are bent instead.
- Shaping marks each glyph of a segment whose script joins (Arabic,
Syriac, N'Ko, Mongolian, Adlam and the other cursive scripts), by the
segment's script, so a word bends as a whole.
- With the Rainbow effect such a glyph's outline is mapped point by
point: pen space (x, y) -> P(s + x step/advance) + (y + rise) N there,
each segment cut into pieces short enough for 0.01 pt (capped). A
glyph the path doesn't turn under stays exactly as it was; Skew, 3D
Ribbon, Stair Step and Gravity, vertical type, inline art and colour
glyphs are unchanged. `PositionedGlyph::bend` records it; `xf` stays
the straight glyph for the caret, hit testing and tools.
- PDF export draws bent glyphs as outlines and writes them again as
invisible text where they stand, so they can be selected, searched
and copied. SVG export outlines them (right-to-left type already was),
never as a <textPath>, and labels the group with its text
(role="img", aria-label) for screen readers and search.
Tests (crates/text/src/tests_path_joins.rs; installed Arabic font, skip
without one): the gap at the baseline and at join height is <= 0.01 pt
at 12, 29 and 72 pt on radii 60, 110 and 300, on both sides of the
path, with finite outlines; Latin on a curve and joined type on a
straight path are byte-for-byte what they were; the chord-only
prediction is checked.
vectorcraft-cli perf (load average 43 before, 34 after: not trustworthy;
the synthetic document has no type on a path, so bending doesn't run):

Draw freeform paths with the Pencil tool says a small star appears on
the Pencil when it is ready to draw a freeform path, and Reshape paths
with the Pencil tool says the star disappears over a selected path the
drag reshapes. The Pencil cursor had no star.
- New Cursor::PencilNew: the Pencil's crosshair with a small star where
the closing cursor has its ring. It becomes the crosshair with Use
Precise Cursors and as a system cursor.
- The Pencil shows it before a press when neither find_extend nor
find_redraw (the lookups the press uses, within Edit Selected Paths)
finds a selected path under the pointer. Over such a path and while a
stroke is drawn, the cursor has no star.

Art Brush Options' Width had no pen tablet option, so an art brush
drew at one width whatever the pressure. The Width row now has a
Fixed or Pressure menu and a second width. With Pressure the art is
Width wide at the lightest pen pressure and the second width at the
heaviest, following the pressure the Paintbrush recorded along the
stroke, and half way between the two on a stroke drawn without
pressure. brush.options takes width_mode and width_max; a brush
without them is saved as before.
Pencil Tool Options has a Live curve fitting checkbox, on by default.
With it off, the path shown while a Pencil stroke is drawn joins the
stroke's points with straight segments, and the release fits the curve
at the Fidelity, as it does with the option on. Choosing another tool
while a stroke is drawn also keeps the stroke fitted. The option is
saved with the tool's other options.
path.freehand takes fit (true by default): with fit false, a new path,
a continued path and a redrawn section join the points with straight
segments.
The reference app detects lists typed as 1., 1), A. or A), and makes
custom bullets from *, #, > or + followed by a space. In VectorCraft
the characters stayed as text.
When the Type tool types a space on its own after one of these at the
start of a paragraph in no list, the typing so far becomes one undo
step. The new command text.startList then removes the typed characters
and the space and makes the paragraph a numbered list in 1, 2, 3 or
A, B, C, or a bulleted list with the filled dot. A paragraph with no
indents gets the 18 pt hanging indent. One Undo puts the characters
back as text with no list, and the caret goes on after them; Redo
removes them again. The same characters later in a paragraph, list
characters pasted in one piece with the space and a paragraph already
in a list start nothing.

The test checked only that each outline had a dark pixel, which a line
two or more pixels wide also has. It now counts the dark pixels across
the path, a stem of the type and the guide, and expects one, with and
without supersampling.
Move opened without Distance and Angle, so its first frame replaced the
values a control client set with ones computed from Horizontal and
Vertical, and OK read Horizontal and Vertical without the Distance and
Angle set since the last frame. Move now opens holding the Distance and
Angle of its offset, and OK applies a Distance and Angle set since the
last frame.
A command.batch that edited a document with an undo group and then a
document without one was dropped from the journal as a whole when the
group was canceled, so a replay lost the second document's edit, which
the session kept. Each batch step is now noted in the undo groups it
belongs to, by the same rule as a top-level command, and a cancel takes
only those steps out of the batch's journal entry. A step that changed
the active document becomes that change. Undo groups that stay open
follow the entry and step numbers that a cancel changes.
With Preview off, selecting a plain image after an Image Trace object
kept the panel on that object without saving its waiting settings. A
trace of the image then made the image's trace the panel's object, and
selecting the first object again showed its stored settings and lost the
change. The panel now keeps the waiting settings for the object it
leaves whatever is selected next.
The test of a color whose every path straightens to no area traced a
pale blue row with a library of a light color, black and [40, 120, 240].
With Document Library weighing hue and chroma three times as much as
lightness, the row takes the light color instead of that blue, so the
test no longer traced any blue. The library blue is now [60, 130, 235],
which the row still maps to; the assertions are unchanged.
With Method Overlapping, each color layer covered every pixel of the colors
above it in the stack. A small dot or square on a background was then traced
once in its own color and again, at the same bounds, in every color between
the background and it, and with Shapes on each copy became its own live shape.
Those layers also ended on edges they never touched and showed through the
anti-aliased rim there.
Each layer now leaves out every 4-connected part of its stacked area that holds
no pixel of its own color. This changes the result of many Overlapping traces,
the photo presets included: fewer paths (High Fidelity Photo 121 to 69.6 on its
own quality inputs, Low Fidelity Photo 37.1 to 26.1) and no rim, around a
shape, of a color that sits apart from it. One existing test that counted the
extra copies now expects one layer per area, and another that compared layer
pixel counts now checks that the bottom layer covers the whole image.
