On an edge two artboards share, the artboard to the right of it or below
it holds a point, except at the end of the edge that lies on that
artboard's bottom or right edge, such as where both artboards' bottom
edges meet. There the first artboard holds it, or the last when
topmost. The doc comment and the test comments now say so, and the test
asserts that corner.
Rearrange All Artboards, Select › All on Active Artboard (for objects
with no area), Copy's source artboard for Paste in Place, Align to
Artboard without an index, Crop Image, the Crop Image tool, Place with
`at`, CSS positions and a filter plug-in's artboard decided whether a
point or an object's center is on an artboard with Rect::contains,
which leaves out the right and bottom edges. A line along an artboard's right or
bottom edge was on no artboard: Rearrange left it behind, and All on
Active Artboard did not select it. Document::art_on_artboard counts
art flush with those edges (#890).
They now count the edges as art_on_artboard does, within a millionth
of a point. On an edge two artboards share, the artboard to the right
of it or below it still holds the point. All on Active Artboard
selects a line on a shared edge from either artboard. A press exactly
on a right or bottom edge now picks that artboard, and the Artboard
tool's cursor shows Move there.
file.new takes a width and height up to 163,830 pt, 1 to 1,000
artboards, a spacing of 0 to 100,000 pt and a bleed of 0 to 72 pt a
side, but a saved or Recent New Document preset in the preferences
was read as it was stored. With a width of -5, file.new failed with
"width/height must be positive and within the canvas"; a spacing of
-50 overlapped the artboards, a preset with 5,000 artboards made 5,000
artboards, and a bleed of 100 reached the document. A .vectorcraft
file's Document Setup bleed, superscript and subscript proportions and
small caps size also opened as stored, and document.setup then failed
when its own report was passed back to it.
These values are now read as the nearer end of the range their
setter takes, and an artboard width or height of 0 or less is read as
1 pt. Presets and files with values in range read as before.
Docs: docs/mcp.md (Document Setup, New Document).
document.rasterEffectsSettings accepts a resolution from 1 to 2,400
ppi, but a file's raster_effects_ppi opened as it was saved. With 0,
-5 or 5000 in the file, object.rasterize without a ppi param failed
with "ppi must be between 1 and 2400", and document.rasterEffectsSettings
and document.info reported the stored value. With 0 or -5, EPS and
PDF export wrote a freeform gradient as a 1 x 1 px image, and EMF
export wrote every gradient as one. A saved New Document preset in the
preferences kept such a value too.
A file's or a saved preset's resolution outside 1 to 2,400 ppi is now
read as the nearer end of that range. Documents with a resolution in
range open as before.
Docs: docs/mcp.md (resolution, rasterEffectsPpi).
Unit fields and length strings read a percentage operand as a share of
a value. After * or /, the percentage scales the term before it:
3cm*50% is 1.5 cm and 3cm/50% is 6 cm. After + or -, it adds or takes
away that share of everything before it: 50pt+25% is 62.5 pt and
100pt+20pt-50% is 60 pt. Before this change these expressions read as
nothing, and the field kept its old value.
The parser now splits a sum at its last + or -, so a percentage applies
to the whole sum before it. Text without % gives the same values as
before, apart from float rounding. A percentage on its own (50%) still
reads as nothing, and percent and degree fields still read % as their
suffix.
Command length strings use the same parser: file.new's width and
height, the distance params and the length preferences.
Docs: docs/mcp.md, docs/ui-parity.md, docs/target-app-parity.md.
These commands edited the document even when nothing changed, so the
call recorded an undo step, emptied Redo and marked the document
modified:
- All Artwork Above and Other Layers (Object › Lock and
Object › Hide) with nothing to lock or hide: no object above the
selection, no other layer, or every one already locked (Lock) or
hidden (Hide).
- Transform Each with no object to transform, and without Copy when
both scales are 100% and there is no move, rotation or reflection.
- Rearrange All Artboards when no artboard moves, or with no artboard.
- stroke.widthPoint.set and stroke.widthPoint.copy when the profile
comes out as it was, and stroke.widthProfile.set with the profile the
strokes have already.
- Liquify when the stroke reshapes no path, and Puppet Warp given the
pins the art holds already (rest: true), or without rest when every
pin stays where it is and turns the art by 0° or is free.
- Define Perspective Grid with the grid the document has, Attach to
Active Plane with no object, Release with Perspective on art that is
not in perspective, Move Plane to where the plane is, without copies,
and Move Plane to Match Object when the plane is there and active
already.
- Move, Nudge and Transform in Perspective without Copy when no object
moves (1e-9 pt or less along the plane or its normal, Snap to Grid
included, or the identity), and Transform Again after one.
These commands now return without editing the document. The replies
have the same form as before. Transform Each with Copy and no object
to transform no longer empties the selection. Puppet Warp without rest,
with every pin where it is and turning the art by 0° or free, no longer
turns a live shape into a plain path. All Artwork Above still deselects
selected objects that are hidden or locked. Width Point counts a change
of 1e-9 or less in a point's place or width factor (its width over half
the stroke weight) as none. OK in Width Point Edit with the widths it
shows, with or without Adjust Adjoining Width Points, records no undo
step. After a move in perspective that moved nothing, Transform Again
repeats the identity.
One line in the evidence list of docs/target-app-parity.md names the
commands.
- artboard.rearrange takes layout (gridByRow, gridByColumn, row, column;
byColumn stays as an alias of gridByColumn) and order (leftToRight,
rightToLeft); Columns is the row count of a grid by column and is
ignored by row and column. It returns {artboards, rows, columns}.
- A Rearrange All Artboards dialog: Layout and Layout Order toggles drawn
in code (widgets::layout_button, previewing the order), Columns/Rows,
Spacing, Move Artwork with Artboard and the artboard count.
- One click: Rearrange All in the Properties panel (Document section with
several artboards, Edit Artboards' Quick Actions); the Artboards panel's
Rearrange button and menu item now open the dialog too.
- Tests for every layout x order (artboards, art riding along, one undo
step), the dialog, the Properties button; the command sweep covers the
new params. Translations for ja, es, it, ru, fr, zh-hans, zh-hant and
pt-br; ROADMAP updated.

File > New opens a New Document dialog in the reference app's layout:
category tabs (Recent, Saved, Mobile, Web, Print, Film & Video, Art &
Illustration, Branding, Social) over cards of presets generated in code
(page-proportioned thumbnail, neutral name, size with units), and a
Preset Details column: name with Save Preset, width with the units
dropdown, height, portrait/landscape toggles, artboards, linked bleed,
Background Contents with its chip, collapsible Advanced Options (colour
mode, raster effects, preview mode), More Settings, Close and Create.
More Settings is the classic form of the same fields (profile and size
lists, artboard layout buttons, spacing and columns, Templates...).
Choosing a preset fills the fields; editing one makes them custom.
file.new takes every setting (preset, name, orientation, artboards with
artboardLayout {layout, columns, spacing, rightToLeft}, bleed,
backgroundContents, colorMode, rasterEffectsPpi, previewMode; sizes may
carry units). file.newPresets lists the categories; file.newPresets.save
and .delete keep user presets in the preferences; Recent remembers the
last sizes. Print presets and plain sizes start in Preferences > Units >
General, screen presets in pixels. Rearrange All Artboards shares the
grid layout code. The Home screen shows the same preset cards.
