A shortcut set another app saved as slash-name text (a .kys file whose
text starts with a slash name and "{", such as "/Menus {") opens in
Import Shortcut Set from File › Open, from Edit › Keyboard Shortcuts ›
Import… in the desktop app, or from a drop on the window, whether or
not a document is open. The dialog proposes a target for an entry when
an earlier import kept one for that name, or else when one tool,
command or panel matches the name clearly by its id or by one of its
labels. It decodes the file's key and modifier codes from the codes
earlier imports kept, from the example in the AiCommandPalette README
(/Key 48 for the 0 key, with /Modifiers 0 taken as no modifiers), and
from VectorCraft's default shortcuts where at least two entries vote and
four votes in five agree. The user picks the remaining targets, presses
the key for each unknown key code or marks it No equivalent, and chooses
the modifiers for each unknown modifier code. Apply assigns the ready
rows with the Keyboard Shortcuts rules: a tool takes a single key,
optionally with Shift. It goes through the rows from the last one back
and leaves a row out when a later row it applies has the same shortcut
or the same tool, command or panel. Keyboard Shortcuts then shows the
result as unsaved changes until the user clicks OK. Copy Report copies
the set's name, the rows Apply leaves out and the parts of the file that
weren't read.
- shortcutSet.read is a query command: it reads a set and does not
modify the document or the preferences. It returns each entry with
its section, codes and line, and up to 1,000 skipped tokens, each cut
to 80 characters. It reads at most 4 MiB of text and 20,000 entries,
skips blocks nested more than 16 deep and cuts names at 1,024 bytes.
With a path it reads at most 4 MiB and 4 bytes of the file, and with
--automation-read-root (#832) the path must lie inside the read root.
A file whose text starts with "<", such as an XML shortcut file saved
as UTF-8, fails with "This shortcut file is in a form VectorCraft
can't read."
- importMatches.list, importMatches.set and importMatches.reset read
and change the matches kept with the preferences; resetting the
preferences keeps them. With Remember My Choices on (the default),
Apply keeps the targets and codes the user chose, and for the rows it
assigns, it also keeps the matched targets and the codes decoded by
agreement. A later import proposes them.
- The name matcher compares a name with ids by exact match and shared
words. It compares the name with labels, in English and in the
interface language, by exact match, shared words and character
pairs. It proposes a match only when one tool, command or panel
scores at least 0.6 and at least 0.1 more than the next one.
- When Import Shortcut Set is opened from Keyboard Shortcuts, Cancel,
Escape and ui.dialog.cancel close it and return to Keyboard Shortcuts
as it was (dialogs::PARENT). A document's queued Missing Fonts dialog
(#792) opens after Keyboard Shortcuts closes.
- File › Open has a "Shortcut sets" filter, and in the desktop app
Keyboard Shortcuts' Import… shows .json and .kys files.

The Corner Radius field in the Properties and Transform panels has a
link toggle behind it (the "singleCornerRadius" preference, on by
default). When the link is on, one field sets every corner, as before.
When it is off, the panels show one field for each corner of a live
rectangle: Top Left, Top Right, Bottom Right and Bottom Left. Each field
sets its own corner through object.setLiveShape {corners, radius}.
This is the part of #1594 that does not change the corner widget drag
or its modifier keys, split out for review.
Tests: a Properties panel test (the link on shows one field; off shows
the four labelled fields with each corner's radius, in line and in
order). The new labels are translated in all 15 catalogs.
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.
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.

A PDF saved with the reference app's editing data keeps that data in
streams named AIPDFPrivateData1, AIPDFPrivateData2, ..., where a .ai
file uses AIPrivateData1, AIPrivateData2, .... illustrator_data read
only the .ai names, so such a PDF opened like any other PDF: plain
groups opened ungrouped, and hidden objects and guides were missing. The
import gave no warning that the PDF's editing data went unread.
illustrator_data now reads the AIPDFPrivateData streams when the file
has no AIPrivateData1, and the PDF opens from its editing data as a .ai
file does. editingData: false still opens it like any other PDF.
has_private_data still looks for AIPrivateData keys only.
layered_ai also returns whether it read the layers. When it did, art
reaching past a PDF's page opens whole, and through_editing_data drops
the PDF importer's note that such art was clipped (PAST_PAGE_NOTE, now
public) as it drops the off-artboard note. When it didn't, both notes
stay. On main, a .ai whose editing data can't be decoded or has no
layers opened from its PDF part without the off-artboard note.
testkit::ai::pdf writes the .ai file of testkit::ai::ai with the PDF
key names. The editing-data tests open it as a PDF, and the import fuzz
test opens the damaged sample as a PDF too.
Docs: the document.open params, docs/mcp.md,
docs/file-format-parity.md, docs/gaps.md (G9: the export direction of
#868 remains), one evidence line in docs/target-app-parity.md, and #868
moved from layer structure to editing data in the File formats row of
docs/target-app-parity.md and in docs/roadmap.md.
Overnight doc conflicts were resolved by keeping both sides, which left two or three copies of
some milestone and parity rows (M1–M3, M5–M7, M14; six area rows; one type row). Each is now one
row with every note. The 2026-10-12 progress row takes the 30 PRs landed since and the Film
Grain row that #1282 added separately.

Object › Graph › Data (and the graph tool after drawing) opens the
Graph Data window as a worksheet, as
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/visualize-data/add-graph-data.html
and
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/visualize-data/adjust-column-width.html
describe, in place of a free-text CSV field.
- The first row holds the series labels, the first column the category
labels, the other cells the values. A click picks a cell, edited in
the entry box above the sheet: Tab enters it and moves right, Enter
down (Shift: the other way), the arrow keys move between cells.
Pasting tab- or line-separated text fills cells from the picked one.
- Import Data reads a tab-separated text file (UTF-8, or UTF-16 with a
byte-order mark), at most a graph's 10,000 × 256 cells.
- Transpose row/column and Switch x/y (scatter graphs) rearrange the
sheet; Revert reads the graph's data again; Cell Style sets the
decimals shown and the columns' width. Apply redraws the graph and
leaves the window open.
- The sheet reads and writes the graph's series, categories and rows
(not CSV), so labels with commas, quotes or `|`, blank labels and
graphs without category labels come back as they were.
- Only the cells in view are drawn, read in place, so a full-size sheet
stays responsive.
Own choices, as the pages don't say: Number of Decimals only changes
what the sheet shows; Transpose is off when it would make more series
than a graph holds; the arrow keys move between cells rather than the
caret. Dragging a column's edge to resize it isn't supported yet.
Text formatted in a graph, as
https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/automate-visualize-data/visualize-data/format-the-text-in-graphs.html
describes (the whole graph with the Selection tool, or labels picked
with Group Selection, through the Character and Appearance controls),
now survives the graph being drawn again from its data.
- A graph keeps a character style per kind of label: value axis
numbers, category labels (category axis, radar spokes, pie names)
and legend labels (beside or across the top, or in wedges).
- text.setStyle, text.setFormat and fill/stroke changes on a graph's
labels apply the same change to their kind's kept style, so only what
the user changed is kept and every label of that kind follows. A
change to part of a label's text isn't kept.
- Labels are told apart by where the graph draws them, not by their
text, so a category named "2" and the value axis' 2 stay apart.
- Label spacing follows a kept size (legend rows, offsets from the axes
and wedges), so bigger labels don't overlap; at 9 pt it's as before.
Wedge labels stay white on dark wedges unless given a colour.
- A kept style from a file is held to the Character controls' limits.
Own choice, as the page doesn't say what happens on a data change:
formatting one label formats its whole kind, since the labels are drawn
again from the data. Other ways of restyling text (eyedropper,
character styles, Find Font) aren't kept yet. New fields are written
only when set; graphs without kept formatting draw the same art as
before.
