- The opacity and paint sliders remember the value they were last moved to and commit that when let go, instead of reading the controlled input, which still shows the old value until the parent renders.
- The render test's old-fade shape is star-5; star is not a shape, so the whole fixture failed to parse.
- A shape and a page take a paint: one colour with its own alpha, a linear or
radial gradient of two to six stops, or one of twelve patterns (checks,
gingham, stripes, pinstripes, dots, polka dots, zigzag, waves, grid, scales,
sunburst, confetti). fill, gradient and background keep the colour that
stands for the paint, so an older reader still draws something close, and a
plain colour or the old cover fade is stored in the old fields alone.
- Gradients render as SVG in user space with ids per mounted copy, so the two
halves of a spread in page mode never share a defs id; patterns are drawn
out as geometry clipped to the outline and capped at 2000 primitives.
- The new paint picker has none, solid, gradient and pattern tabs, a stop bar
to click, drag and pull stops off, an angle dial, a radial centre pad and
pattern tiles drawn by the page's own generator.
- Every swatch row gains the book's own colours, colours read from the
page's photos, recent colours and, where it applies, an opacity slider.
- With nothing selected the inspector sets the page background, gives it to
every page of its kind, and lays a photo under the whole page.
- The assistant's background operation takes a paint as well as a colour,
style and add set a shape's paint, and describe_book_page reads both.
- BOOK_SCHEMA_REV goes to 2.
