The Pen's pointer showed the new-path asterisk before the first anchor
and also while a path was being drawn, where a click adds the path's
next anchor. A new Cursor::PenDrawing, the pen nib without a badge, now
shows there. The close, convert and join badges still show over the
first anchor, the last anchor and another open path's end. The asterisk
shows only where a click starts a new path.
The Continue, Add and Delete badges now also show after another path
was selected while the Pen was still drawing (for example with a
Cmd-click). A click there already continued the path or added or
deleted an anchor, but the pointer showed the asterisk.
View › Proof Setup had two color blindness items, protanopia and
deuteranopia. A third item, Color blindness – Tritanopia-type, proofs
the canvas with a tritanopia simulation, and the Separations Preview
panel's Proof Setup list offers it too. `view.proofSetup` takes
`target: "tritanopia"`.
The simulation follows Brettel, Viénot and Mollon (1997): a color
keeps its L and M cone responses, and its S response is replaced so
that it lies on one of two half-planes. Both contain the neutral
axis; one passes through the 485 nm color and the other through the
660 nm color. The neutral axis runs to the display's white, so grays
keep their value. The matrices are computed at
compile time from the published inputs cited in the code. The
protanopia and deuteranopia matrices are unchanged.
In the Transform panel, the Properties panel's Transform section and
the Control bar, Alt+Enter (Option+Return) in X, Y, W, H, Rotate or
Shear ended editing as Enter does, and the selection itself moved,
resized, turned or sheared. Now the field's command gets `copy: true`
when the Enter that committed it was pressed with Alt. The copy takes
the value, the original stays where it was, and the copy is selected,
in one undo step. A press elsewhere with Alt held applies the value
without a copy. With anchor points selected with Direct Selection,
Alt+Enter applies the value to them, as Enter does.
- widgets::enter_modifiers returns the modifiers of the frame's Enter
press.
- transform::alt_enter_copies gives the `copy` param of the three
surfaces' commands.

A Pencil or Paintbrush stroke always left the path it drew or continued
selected. The reference app's Pencil and Paintbrush options have Keep
selected for this, and VectorCraft's Tool Options had no such row.
The Pencil and Paintbrush Tool Options now have a Keep selected
checkbox, on by default, which keeps today's behavior. When it is off,
a new path is not selected and the selection stays as it was, and a
continued path is removed from the selection while the rest stays. The
stroke is still one undo step. The option persists like the tools'
other options, and path.freehand and brush.freehand take keepSelected.

Ctrl/Cmd+Shift-clicking New Swatch in the Swatches panel opened New
Swatch for a spot color, as a Ctrl/Cmd-click does. It now opens the
dialog for a global process color, and with Alt also held it saves one
at once. `ui.newSwatch` takes `global`.
An Alt+Ctrl/Cmd-click with a gradient or pattern as the active paint
failed with "spot, mode and group apply to solid colours only". It now
saves a gradient or pattern swatch, as a Ctrl/Cmd-click does through
the dialog.
The reference app's Drop Shadow has a Color and a Darkness, the
percentage of black added to the object's own colors. Drop Shadow had
only a Color, so every shadow was one color. Choosing one or the other,
and the defaults, are VectorCraft's own.
Drop Shadow now takes `shade` ("color" or "darkness", default "color")
and `darkness` (%, default 100). Its dialog and the Appearance panel's
inline editor show Color and Darkness as radio buttons. With Darkness
d, a CMYK document keeps the object's cyan, magenta and yellow and
raises its black from K to K + d × (1 − K), and an RGB document
multiplies each channel by 1 − d, so in RGB 0% gives the object's
color and 100% gives black. A shadow saved without these keys draws as
before. SVG export writes a Darkness shadow with feComponentTransfer
and SVG import reads it back; CSS export leaves it out.

Shift+Tab ran Tab's command and hid the toolbar and the Control bar
along with the panels. egui matches a chord without Shift when Shift
is also held.
A new UI command, window.panels (default Shift+Tab), shows and hides
the dock and the floating panels and leaves the toolbar and the
Control bar as they are. The shortcut table tries chords with more
modifiers first, so Tab's chord no longer takes Shift+Tab. Hiding the
panels with Tab or Shift+Tab also closes a panel popped out of the
icon column, which stayed on screen at the window's right edge.

In Draw Inside, a double-click with the Selection, Direct Selection or
Group Selection tool outside the object being drawn into now sets the
drawing mode to Draw Normal (view.drawMode {mode: "normal"}), as
Shift+D does. The object's geometric bounds, grown by the selection
tolerance, count as inside, and a double-click after the object was
deleted also returns to Draw Normal. The tool then takes the
double-click as before: with the Selection tool, a double-click on the
empty canvas still exits isolation mode, and one on another object
still isolates that object. Other tools leave Draw Inside on.

The Color Picker gets an eyedropper button beside the New and Original
chips, and `ui.sampleScreenColor {stroke?, picker?}` shows the system's
color sampler. The command answers at once. When the person clicks a
color anywhere on the screen, the color becomes the fill or the stroke
through paint.setFill / paint.setStroke as one undo step, or with
`picker` it becomes the open Color Picker's color, which previews on the
selection as any pick does. Escape cancels the sampler. The sampled sRGB
color goes through Cms::srgb_to_rgb, so in a Display P3 working space a
color inside sRGB shows as it did on the screen. `ui.inspect` reports
`screenSampler` while the sampler is open.
- macOS uses NSColorSampler (apps/vectorcraft/src/mac_screen_color.rs).
- The web app uses the browser's EyeDropper API where the browser has
one.
- Without a sampler (Windows, Linux, other browsers) the button is gray
and the command returns an error. Keyboard Shortcuts lists the
command, so it can be given a key.

The Control bar had no isolation controls. In isolation mode it now
shows an Exit Isolation Mode button (`object.exitIsolation`), except
while a pattern is edited: the isolation bar's Done and Cancel end
that edit. Outside isolation mode, with one group, compound path,
path, image, mesh or placed file selected, it shows an Isolate
Selected Object button (`object.isolate`). After a Direct Selection
click on a path inside a group, the button isolates that path. An
envelope's contents get no button: for them the Control bar shows the
envelope's Edit Envelope and Edit Contents buttons.
The button offers the kinds of object that the Selection tool's
double-click isolates. The double-click's check moves unchanged into
`vectorcraft_tools::select::isolates`, and both use it.

A knockout group that is not isolated, and whose elements blend, is
drawn over a copy of the art below it when the renderer has no layer
open around it. Each element was drawn over the whole copy in a layer,
and the layer was cut to the element's knockout shape with DestIn.
Where the shape covers part of a pixel, the cut counted the element's
coverage a second time. With Page Knockout Group on and Page Isolated
Blending off, the page is drawn this way as soon as an object on it
outside an isolated group has a blend mode other than Normal, on itself
or on a fill or stroke. On a test page, adding a Multiply square
changed the half-covered edge of a blue square over orange from
[115, 115, 141] to [172, 159, 147] on white.
Each element is now drawn over the copy offscreen, over its own
bounds. With the DestOut pass before it, each pixel gets (1 - shape)
times what was below plus shape times the element composited with the
copy at a shape of 1, as ISO 32000-1 section 11.4.6 describes. Pixels
that the shape covers fully or not at all are drawn as before.
Geometry effects on a group or layer, and effects on a symbol instance,
blend or repeat, outline the type inside it. outline_nested_text
replaced each type object with a plain group of its outlines, so the
type lost its opacity, blend mode, opacity mask, knockout shape
option, own effects and perspective, and hidden type was drawn,
exported and made visible by Expand Appearance.
outline_nested_text now replaces type with the art that as_art makes
for it, which is also what reshape makes for type with geometry
effects of its own. That art has the type's own geometry effects and
perspective applied and keeps its name, transparency, opacity mask
and other effects. as_art also keeps the object's visibility and
knockout shape option, so hidden type with a geometry effect of its
own is left out of exports. Type in a clip group's clipping path still
becomes its plain outlines and now keeps its visibility.
In a dev build, opening a native file whose area type has 2^60 rows
or 2^60 columns failed with an internal error ("capacity overflow"),
and opening one with 2^32 rows and 2^32 columns failed with "attempt
to multiply with overflow". Text layout reserved room for rows times
columns frame cells. `text.areaOptions` keeps both counts within 1 to
100, but reading a document kept the counts the file gave.
Reading a document now clamps each count to 1 to 100
(`AreaOptions::MAX_ROWS_COLUMNS`): a larger count reads as 100, and 0
reads as 1, as layout already treated it. Text layout clamps both
counts the same way. Area type with 1 to 100 rows and columns lays out
as before.
The cells of a frame now share one copy of the frame's flattened
polygons and one copy of the flattened text wrap shapes. Each cell held
its own copy: in a dev build, a test process that laid out text in 100
rows and 100 columns of a circle frame of radius 1,000,000 pt peaked at
1.33 GB of memory, and now peaks at 100 MB.
The Shape Builder merges faces by uniting their contours, and the edges
two faces share cancel out. The sweep can give two faces copies of a
shared edge whose ends lie a few times its tolerance apart, with the
difference left as pieces shorter than the tolerance. The union could
then keep the space between the copies: a hairline that joined a hole
as a spur, or a seam that cut a petal tip off the ring's outer outline
as an outline of its own. On Apple Silicon, turning one petal of the
rosette test by -180 degrees instead of 180 leaves a spur.
A Shape Builder action unites the picked faces first, and then what is
left of each shape. When two copies of a shared edge differ in the
first of these unions that unites the faces' contours, each point of
the faces' contours that lies within 16 times the sweep's tolerance of
a point kept before it now moves onto that point before that union and
each later one, with the handles next to it. A piece left within that
distance of one point is dropped. The planar map joins the ends of
copies of an edge within the same distance. Copies that share their
ends leave at most a hairline contour, which the merge drops as a
sliver. When the copies in that union all match exactly, the unions
take the contours unchanged. Only the Shape Builder's merges and
deletions unite faces this way, so Pathfinder output does not change.
Duplicate Artboards, the Artboard tool's Alt-drag (artboard.move with
copy) and Paste of a copied artboard gave the new artboard the largest
artboard id plus one, saturating. In a document with an artboard id
of 4,294,967,295 (u32::MAX), which only a hand-made file has, the copy
got that same id. Artboard guides record the id of their artboard.
Deleting either of the two artboards with that id then deleted the
guides of both, and guide.list reported the copy's guides on the
other one.
push_artboard_copy now takes the id from Document::next_artboard_id,
as artboard.new and Convert to Artboards do. Since the #1718 fix, that
function returns the smallest free id when the largest is u32::MAX.
In a document whose artboard ids are all below u32::MAX, a copy gets
the same id as before.
Docs: docs/target-app-parity.md.
The key of a raster made for content that shows a symbol includes the
font generation, and since c348b384 (#1723) the key for content
painted with a pattern includes it too. FontDb::add_font increases
that generation, and the six tests in tests_fontchange.rs call it. Two
tests in fx.rs draw such content and count the rasters moved between
frames: moved_rasters_need_the_same_content_and_effects and
a_moved_group_draws_the_shadow_of_the_instance_art_in_it_while_interacting.
Neither held fonts_steady(). When a font test added a font between
their frames, the renderer made the raster again and the test counted
0 rasters moved instead of 1. Under CPU load on Windows, with the font
tests in the same process, the first test failed in 12 of 100 runs and
the second failed in 36 of 70.
Both tests now hold fonts_steady().
translucent_blended_and_shadowed_type_redraws_when_its_font_becomes_available
added its font without the font lock that fonts_steady() holds shared,
and it now takes adding_fonts(), as the other five font tests do. With
the change, the first test passed in all 200 runs and the second
passed in all 120 runs under the same load.
file.new stamps metadata.created from the clock in whole seconds. Four
Alt-drag tests in tests_xform.rs compare the document under test with
one that a second session builds, and both sessions start from
session()'s file.new. When the clock reached a new second between the
two calls, the documents differed in created, and the test failed.
With a temporary change that made each clock read on a thread at least
one second later than the one before, all four failed.
session() in tests_xform.rs and persp_session() in
tests_persp_select.rs now pass "created": null to file.new, as #1894
did for doc_with_rect() in tests_ids_without_selection.rs. Two new
tests in #2067 compare two documents built on persp_session().
Keep Type tool from inserting Text when Cmd/Ctrl/Alt is held so the
chord outlines instead of typing, and cover Selection and Type-tool
paths so File › Open and the Artboard tool cannot steal it.

The Cmd-drag part of #1881 landed in #1897. This covers the two other
paths: an edit from outside the typing session (the Transform panel) and
a new interaction such as a dialog's preview now end the typing first.
With Align to Artboard chosen, the Align panel's six Distribute Objects
buttons and its two Distribute Spacing buttons acted on the selection.
object.distribute and object.distributeSpacing took no to or artboard
param. Distribute Objects kept the outermost objects where they were
and did nothing with two objects, and Distribute Spacing kept the first
object's left or top edge and the last object's right or bottom edge
where they were.
Both commands now take to ("selection", "artboard" or "key") and
artboard, and the panel sends its Align To choice as to. When to is
"artboard", the first object's left or top edge goes to the artboard's
left or top edge, and the last object's right or bottom edge goes to
the artboard's right or bottom edge. Distribute Objects spaces the
other objects evenly by its button's line, and two objects are enough.
Distribute Spacing without a spacing value makes the gaps between the
objects equal. Both commands use the same artboard as object.align.
The app passes the active artboard to both commands, and recorded
actions leave it out, so an action plays on the artboard that is
active when it plays. With "selection" or "key", or without to, both
commands work as before. Distribute Spacing with a spacing value still
keeps the key object in place with each of the three to values. With
anchor points selected, both commands still space the points among
themselves and do not use to.
