There was no way to make text see-through: the only Transparency
slider was the shape fill's. The new format.textTransparency command
keeps the text's colour and sets its alpha (replacing any it had, and
dropping it at 0). A run without its own colour takes the colour it
shows now, so inherited placeholder or theme colours stay as they are.
Gradient text gets the alpha on every stop. The Format Shape pane's
Text Options page gains a Text Fill section (colour and Transparency),
and the Shape Format › Text Fill dropdown has the same slider.

shape.effects gains shadowProps / glowProps / reflectionProps that adjust
the current effect (or add a default one): shadow colour, transparency,
blur, angle and distance; glow colour, transparency and size; reflection
transparency, size, distance and blur. Values are clamped, non-finite ones
ignored. The Effects page of the Format Shape pane exposes them as sliders
and colour pickers.

The Format Shape pane's Line page had only colour, width and dash. It now
has PowerPoint's compound type, cap type, join type, begin/end arrow type
and begin/end arrow size drop-downs, and the Size page has Lock aspect
ratio for the width and height fields. shape.line gains compound,
headSize and tailSize, and changing an arrow's kind keeps its size.

The Print page always laid notes pages and handouts out on portrait US
Letter. It now offers Letter, A4, Legal and A3 in portrait or landscape,
as PowerPoint's Print settings do, and the preview shows the chosen
page. file.export, app.print and the MCP export tool take the same
`paper` and `orientation` params; unknown values are an error. A notes
page keeps its slide within the top half of the page, so landscape
paper still leaves room for the notes. Full-page slides still print on
slide-shaped pages.

The pane's bars now come from deckcraft_anim::Timeline, the same schedule the
slide show plays, so With/After Previous, delays, repeats and auto-reverse line
up on a shared seconds ruler. Dragging a bar sets the delay and dragging its
right edge sets the duration (snapped to 0.05 s), each through
animation.timing, so one undoable command per drag. Bar geometry and drag maths
live in animtimeline.rs as pure, unit-tested functions; kittest drives the
drags. Parity and gaps docs updated.

deckcraft_geom::squircle builds a rectangle outline whose corners start
curving earlier along the edge and keep a shorter circular arc, as design
tools' corner smoothing does. shape.smoothCorners turns rectangles and
rounded rectangles into that outline (custom geometry, so it round-trips
through PPTX), and Edit Shape gains a Smooth Corners slider.

The font menu lists every family the scan of the system font folders finds,
but on Linux the scan only looked in /usr/share/fonts, /usr/local/share/fonts,
~/.fonts and ~/.local/share/fonts. Fonts under XDG data dirs, in folders
fontconfig is configured with (NixOS, Guix, custom setups) and, inside
Flatpak, the host's fonts never showed.
- system_font_dirs adds $XDG_DATA_HOME/fonts and each $XDG_DATA_DIRS/fonts,
Flatpak's /run/host/{fonts,local-fonts,user-fonts}, and the <dir> entries
of /etc/fonts/fonts.conf, local.conf and conf.d; duplicates are dropped.
- font.add {data} adds a font from its bytes for the session; font.rescan
catalogs the installed fonts again, and the font menu has a
"Rescan Installed Fonts" item for fonts installed while DeckCraft runs.

Advancing rendered the new slide on the UI thread at full screen size
before anything changed on screen. While a slide rests (no animation or
transition playing) the show now renders the next slide's first frame on
a background thread; entering that slide uploads the ready image instead
of rendering, waiting for the render if it is still running. Slides with
animated GIFs and the web build keep rendering on entry.

Design Ideas showed the current slide once per built-in theme, and picking
one ran design.theme on the whole presentation; with a large picture every
idea looked the same. The pane also re-rendered eight slides every frame.
- New commands design.ideas (query) and design.applyIdea {id, slide?}
(cmd/ideas.rs). A slide with a picture gets full-bleed with the title on a
band, picture left or right with the text beside it, and a framed picture;
a text slide gets a title column, a centred title and a title at the foot.
An idea moves the slide's own shapes, crops the picture to cover its new
box, sends it to the back, and changes only that slide (one undo step).
- The pane shows the layout ideas first, then the themes under a "whole
presentation" heading, and caches the thumbnails until the deck revision,
slide or pane width changes.

Opening from the file picker or the Backstage recent list read and parsed
the file on the UI thread, so a large PPTX froze the window. The read now
runs on a thread (engine: read_presentation_file / add_presentation_file),
and a modal shows the file name, elapsed time and Cancel; Escape cancels
too. A cancelled read is dropped when it finishes. Scripted opens (control,
MCP, CLI) and the web build stay synchronous.

Shape ids are local to one presentation, and decoded audio was cached by the
address of a buffer the cache did not keep. Switching decks, closing the last
one, or replacing a clip could keep the previous sound. Playback now stops
when the document changes or closes, a new source replaces the voice's audio,
and the decode and duration caches hold the bytes they are keyed by.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
The browser file picker only queued a name and bytes. When the read
finished, DeckCraft guessed the command and ran it on whichever
document and slide were active, so a picture, sound or outline could
land in the wrong place, and a later pick could finish first.
The request now keeps the document, the slide or master, the operation
and a cancellation id. A completion applies there, or is dropped when
that target is gone or the picker was dismissed.

Ctrl+C and Ctrl+X ran edit.copy / edit.cut and handed the returned text
to egui's clipboard; the ribbon's Copy and Cut, the slide's right-click
menu, the menus, the palette and the control channel ran the same
commands through SlideApp::run, which dropped the text, so it never left
DeckCraft. SlideApp::run now keeps the text of a successful Copy or Cut
and hands it to the clipboard on the next frame, like pending URLs.
Regression test: copy_and_cut_commands_reach_the_system_clipboard runs
both commands and checks the frame's CopyText output (it fails without
the fix).

Searching for Export ran file.export with an empty object and reported a missing path. The palette now offers only commands that accept that call, so Export opens the dialog.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Every colour menu ends with Eyedropper. Choosing it closes the menu; the pointer is a
crosshair over the slide with the colour under it and its hex beside it, a click takes
the colour (slide.colorAt) and Esc, a right click or a click off the slide cancels.
The colour comes back through the menu that asked, which opens for a frame and returns
it as if its swatch had been clicked, so Shape Fill, Shape Outline, Font Color, the
Format pane and the other callers all apply it their own way without changes.
The start screen reported errors through set_status, but the status bar
is only drawn while a presentation is open: clicking a Recent entry
whose file had moved or been deleted did nothing visible, and the same
went for every other start-screen error, like a failed sample open.
The start screen now draws the transient status message itself: a real
label, so screen readers see it too, wrapped so a long OS error does
not clip at the panel edge. Recent entries whose file no longer exists
are dimmed with a "(missing)" mark before anything is clicked, each
entry has a remove button, and a successful open clears a stale error.
Existence is probed once per path per session; a stat on a dead network
share can block for the OS timeout, so UNC paths and URLs are never
probed and are judged when opened instead.
The remove button is a plain multiplication sign: U+2715 has no glyph
in the UI font stack and egui would draw the replacement character.
Tests: the missing mark and the drawn error (kittest, clicked through
the real UI), removal from the list, and the negative case - an
existing file is not marked.
Gradient tile rectangles were dropped on import. PowerPoint's "from
corner" radial presets depend on them: fillToRect puts the focus on a
corner and tileRect stretches the gradient's box a whole size past it, so
the circle is centred on that corner and reaches the far one. Without it
(after the two-point radial change) such fills washed out. A linear
gradient now spans its tile rectangle; a radial one ends on the circle
around it, with the focus still placed in the shape's own box (fitted to
PowerPoint's export of the corpus deck tdf114848: mean diff over the
filled box 0.77). Round-trips through pptx.
Wild synthetic set: tile-rect gradients 16.74 -> 2.48.

The 48 MB cap on borrowed UI faces rejected macOS's only Hangul face (AppleSDGothicNeo.ttc, ~55 MB) and the picked Simplified Chinese face (PingFang.ttc, ~78 MB), so Korean and Chinese text in the title, recent files and notes drew as boxes. Raise the cap to 128 MB, as in PhotoCraft.
The same rule that highlights a transition direction now highlights an animation's direction and text build.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Every transition and Effect Option was built in PowerPoint (COM), exported as
video and compared frame by frame with DeckCraft at the same progress
(mean abs diff over 150 variants 35.7 -> 15.0, 0-255).
- anim: transition_frame(kind, option, t, aspect) with measured curves
(smoothstep fades, ease-in-out moves, Cover/Uncover/Pan curves), directions
and option meanings, soft edges as per-corner opacity, 3-D effects as
perspective-projected cards, Dynamic Content moving slide contents over
cross-fading backgrounds (Source::OldBack/NewBack/OldContent/NewContent);
layer_mesh subdivides perspective quads so textures stay straight.
- New options: Page Curl Single, Glitter Hexagons, Shred In/Out, Zoom and
Rotate; PowerPoint-style Effect Options labels.
- render: composite_transition (CPU twin of the show), render_slide_part,
render_transition; deckcraft-cli render-transition FILE --slide N --t T.
- show: per-vertex opacity meshes, slide parts rendered once per transition.
- pptx: PowerPoint's elements and defaults (p:strips diagonal wipes, p14:warp
and p:newsflash for Zoom, p:zoom for Shape In/Out, glitter pattern, shred
rectangle/dir, prstTrans invX per preset, pageCurlSingle, defaults for
randomBar/doors/window/pan/zoom); PowerPoint reopens DeckCraft's files with
the same effects.
- Tests: measured curves, probes of which slide shows where at t, option
coverage, per-frame triangle budget, PowerPoint XML and defaults round trip.

Hovering a table border shows a resize cursor (new hit kinds
TableColumn and TableRow) and dragging it resizes, one undo step per
drag, as in PowerPoint:
- an inner column border moves between its two columns and the table
keeps its width;
- the right edge widens or narrows the last column and the table;
- a row's bottom border (the last one is the table's bottom edge) sets
that row's height, which stays a minimum: rows still grow to fit
their text.
Columns stop at 12 pt. Borders hidden inside merged cells aren't hit;
the left and top edges still move the table. A border drag while a
cell is edited keeps editing it. The drag goes through
table.columnWidth, which takes a new keepTotal option (the next column
absorbs the change), and table.rowHeight. Hit testing is done in the
table's own frame, so rotated tables resize along their axes.
- A double-click in a cell puts the caret where clicked and selects the
word there, as in shapes (it used to put the caret at the end).
- While a cell is edited, a click in the same table moves the caret to
the clicked cell and position; a drag selects text within the cell
and Shift+click extends only within it.
- A click in an already selected table enters the clicked cell at the
click; dragging the table still moves it.
- The release that follows a double-click no longer re-enters the text
at the click, which collapsed the word just selected (shapes too).
Cells are found from the drawn cell rects, so merged cells and rows
that grew to fit their text are hit where they are drawn.
Editing a table cell outlined the cell but drew no caret or selection,
and Up/Down/Home/End fell back to paragraph moves, because the text
layout used for drawing, hit testing and caret movement only existed
for shapes.
text::text_frame now lays out the edited text as it is drawn and gives
the transform to the slide, for shapes and cells alike: a cell's text is
laid out in its rect (merges honoured) with the cell's margins, anchor
and the table style's look, through the renderer's own cell_body and
cell_rects. layout_for and tools::text_pos use it, and the canvas draws
the caret and selection from it. The cell outline follows merged cells.
The Export dialog had no visible control: the native menu bar that lists
Export… is not installed, so only the command palette reached it. The
quick access row now has an Export button (the existing Export icon)
that opens the export dialog, enabled when a presentation is open.
A right click on an unselected shape opened the slide's context menu
(Layout, Reset Slide...) because only the primary button reached the
pointer tool; the shape had to be left-clicked first. The right-button
press now goes through Session::pointer as PointerKind::ContextClick
(`contextclick` on the control channel and MCP) and selects like
PowerPoint before the menu opens: an unselected shape is selected alone
(a text box or placeholder is not put into text editing, nothing is
dragged), a selected shape keeps the selection, multiple selection
included, and empty slide clears it. In the box whose text is being
edited, the caret and text selection stay, and the context menu offers
text items (Paragraph, Bullets, Numbering, Link) next to Cut, Copy and
Paste, which act on the selected text.
While a text box or placeholder is being edited, every press inside its
box placed the caret, so the box could not be moved without leaving
editing first. Like PowerPoint, a band on either side of the box edge
(the hit tolerance wide, in the shape's rotated frame) is now its frame:
hit_test reports Hit::Frame there, the canvas shows the move cursor, and
a press leaves text editing, selects the box and drags it as one undo
step. A click without a drag just selects the whole box. Inside the box
the caret and text selection work as before; resize and adjust handles
still win. The text-click zone now follows the rotated box instead of
its axis-aligned bounds.
* Engine: file.info and PowerPoint-style print slide ranges (#76)
file.info reports what File › Info shows (name, path, format, unsaved
changes, slide and hidden-slide counts, sections, size on disk,
properties). file.export's PDF `slides` also takes the range typed in
PowerPoint's Print page ("1-3, 5", 1-based); bad or out-of-range text is
an error instead of a silent full export.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* UI: the File tab (Backstage) like PowerPoint's (#76)
File (first ribbon tab) or Alt+F opens a full-window view in place of the
ribbon, slides and status bar: a side menu (Back, Home, New, Open, Info,
Save, Save As, Print, Export, Close; Account and Options at the bottom)
and the chosen page. Esc or Back returns; Up/Down walk the side menu and
show each page as it gets the focus; Enter runs Save/Close/Options.
Laid out after PowerPoint for Windows as observed: 160-pt menu a step
darker than the page, outline icons, current page in the accent colour.
The start screen is now File › Home (as in PowerPoint), with only Home,
New and Open at the top and no Back. Pages call existing commands and
file helpers: file.new {theme} and the sample deck (Home, New); recent
files with search, Browse and Recover Unsaved (Open); file.info and
file.properties, Accessibility Checker, Revert (Info); file.save /
file.saveAs / file.export by type (Save, Save As); a PDF with the Print
page's slides, layout (full page, notes, handouts 1-9), hidden slides and
frames, opened in the system viewer or downloaded on the web, with a
page preview (Print, Ctrl+P); Create PDF, Create Handouts and Change File
Type (Export); appearance and About (Account); Preferences (Options).
Share (cloud) is left out.
Close and Ctrl+W now ask Save / Don't Save / Cancel about unsaved
changes instead of closing at once. The Export dialog shares
SlideApp::export_as with the Export page. New UI commands: app.backstage
{page}, app.closePresentation, app.print; ui.inspect reports the page.
New icons drawn in code: back, save as, account, recent, new file, open
folder.

* Text: Ctrl+arrows, Ctrl+Backspace/Delete and the other text keys work like PowerPoint (#268)
Observed black-box in PowerPoint for Windows on synthetic text:
- Word stops (crates/model/src/words.rs): words, punctuation runs, symbol
runs, tabs, line breaks and each CJK character are tokens; trailing spaces
join the token before. it's, a-b, 3.14, 1,000 are one word; e.g., a_b and
x@y.com are not. Grapheme clusters never split.
- Ctrl+Left/Right and Ctrl+Shift+Left/Right move by those stops, across
paragraphs; with a selection they go on from its start/end. In a
right-to-left paragraph Left and Right swap.
- Ctrl+Backspace deletes to the previous stop; Ctrl+Delete deletes the rest
of the word, or spaces plus the next word, then applies PowerPoint's smart
spacing. With a selection both work from its start.
- Ctrl+Up/Down by paragraph, Ctrl+Home/End to the text's ends.
- End on a wrapped line goes past the trailing space and the caret stays
drawn at that line's end (TextSel::line_end); End again stays, Home
returns to the same line.
- Ctrl+]/[ and Ctrl+Shift+>/< change font size (egui's Period/Comma/
bracket key names now match registry shortcuts).
- Shift+F3 cycles lower -> Title -> UPPER; a caret changes its word.
- Double-click selects the word without trailing spaces; triple-click
includes the paragraph mark.
- Mac keeps Option for words and Cmd for line/text ends (Session::mac_keys).

* #133: Selection pane engine: restack inside groups, Show/Hide All, Lock like PowerPoint
- arrange.bringForward/sendBackward/bringToFront/sendToBack and arrange.reorder work on a
group's children, which stay in their group (as PowerPoint's pane arrows and drag do);
steps that change nothing leave no undo step.
- selection.select (pane click: Ctrl toggles, children and top-level objects don't mix,
picking a hidden object shows it), selection.showAll (everything, children too) and
selection.hideAll (top level).
- shape.lock cascades through groups; locked objects can be selected, formatted and typed
in, but not moved, sized, rotated, flipped, reshaped or cropped (commands and canvas).
- PPTX: Lock reads and writes PowerPoint's full locking attribute set per element kind
(observed by saving locked objects from PowerPoint); partial locks aren't Lock.

arrows, Home, End and Esc in the list; right-click menu. Lock/Unlock on the canvas menu,

* Text: input method composition as commands, one undo step per composition (#101)
text.compose shows an input method's preedit in place at the insertion point and replaces it on
each update; an empty preedit cancels and restores the text and selection. text.commit replaces
the composition with the result as one undo step. Any other edit, key or click settles an open
composition first. The composition is underlined under the baseline (thicker under the part being
converted), and the caret line is measured for empty placeholders too.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* UI: Korean, Japanese and Chinese input and interface text (#101)
The slide turns the input method on while it takes typing, with the candidate window at the
caret, and forwards egui Ime events to text.compose / text.commit, so a Korean keyboard composes
syllables instead of separate jamo. Interface text in scripts the interface fonts lack (Hangul,
Simplified Chinese, Thai...) borrows faces from the font database (installed fonts such as Malgun
Gothic; nothing bundled): file names, titles, notes, outline, sections, comments and typed text.
Ported and widened from WordCraft's #565/#840 fallback. The notes pane keeps text typed before
focus leaves in the same frame (Escape, another slide). Control channel: ui.ime.

PowerPoint's Normal view draws shapes, pictures and text that sit partly
or wholly off the slide on the area around it, at full strength, with
their effects, master and layout graphics included; the slide show,
exports and thumbnails clip to the slide. DeckCraft clipped everything to
the slide in the editor too.
- render: `slide_extent`/`layout_extent` estimate how far a slide's
drawing reaches (boxes, outlines, shadow, glow, reflection);
`render_slide_drawn` also reports what a render actually drew (text
spilling out of its box, table rows that grew); `pasteboard_region`
picks the pixels the editor renders: the slide plus what reaches off
it and is in view, rounded to 256 px tiles so scrolling rarely
re-renders. A slide with nothing off it renders exactly as before.
- ui-egui: the canvas texture covers that region (slide and master
views); it re-renders only when the slide, zoom or the region changes,
and a second time only if text drew beyond the estimate.
- Hit testing, selection, marquee and moves already worked in slide
space; tests now cover them off the slide.

The caret was always stroked black. On a dark slide (the Nocturne theme,
or any dark background with light text) it could not be seen. It is now
drawn in the colour that text typed at the caret takes, and falls back to
the theme token when that text has no fill.
An empty placeholder showed no caret at all: its body holds no paragraph
until something is typed, so the edit layout had no line for the caret to
stand on. The edit layout now treats such a body as one empty paragraph,
and the canvas leaves the placeholder's prompt out while it is being typed
into, so the caret does not sit inside "Click to add title".
Fixes#318.
Long speaker notes grew out of the notes pane and over the slide: the
editor now scrolls inside the pane. In Presenter View the Previous, Next
and End Show buttons drew dark text on the dark window, so they looked
missing; they are now light on a visible fill, and the timer gets Pause /
Resume and Reset.

AppKit draws the traffic lights 16 pt from the top of the window on macOS 27,
but the title bar was 38 pt, so they sat above its centre line. On macOS the
bar is now 32 pt, centred on them: content starts after the lights with the gap
they keep from the top, and the Present button shrinks to 22 pt to keep a
margin. Same approach as wordcraft #255 and gridcraft #323, with the light
metrics measured on macOS 27. Linux, Windows and web are unchanged.
File ▸ Open's Outline filter accepts `.md`, but a `.md` was read with the
plain outline format (unindented line = slide, indent = bullet), so a
Markdown outline written the usual way kept `#` in its titles and made
every top-level list item a slide of its own.
`deckcraft_format::markdown_to_slides` reads ATX headings (`#`–`######`,
closing `#`s dropped) as slide titles, list items (`-`, `*`, `+`, `1.`,
`1)`) as bullets nested by their indentation, and other lines under a
heading as body paragraphs. A `.md` without headings is still read as a
plain outline, so existing indented `.md` outlines open as before; `.txt`
is unchanged. Opening a `.md` and dropping one on the window
(`slide.fromOutline {markdown: true}`) use it. Both readers now share the
slide builder.
Tests: the outline from the issue (2 slides, nested bullets), numbered and
`*`/`+` lists with text under a heading, `slide.fromOutline` with
`markdown`, plain `.txt`/`.md` outlines unchanged, and heading / list-item
edge cases (not-a-heading forms, closing hashes, Unicode, long digit runs).

The Picture Format ▸ Change Picture button ran the insert-picture dialog,
so it added a second picture instead of replacing the selected one. A new
app.changePictureDialog picks a file and runs picture.change, which keeps
the picture's position, size and formatting; the canvas right-click menu
offers it on pictures too. On the web, where the file arrives later
through the inbox, the pending change is remembered for that pick.

The UI remembers whether the last press landed in the thumbnail pane (the sorter always counts) and passes scope slides to edit.selectAll in that case.
egui-winit drops Ctrl+V when the system clipboard is empty. Copying a
rectangle or picture puts no text on it, so the shortcut never reached
the session and only the context menu could paste objects. Copy and cut
now leave an invisible word joiner on the system clipboard in that case,
and paste maps it back to the session's own clipboard.
There was no way to turn a presentation into an animated GIF. file.export now writes one: format
`gif` (or a .gif path), one frame per slide drawn by the slide renderer and shown for
secondsPerSlide, encoded with the `image` crate's GIF encoder (already a dependency, no new
crates) with a 256-colour palette per frame: exact when a slide has 256 colours or fewer,
NeuQuant otherwise. Slides are composited onto white.
Options: width (small 640, medium 960 (default), large 1280, extraLarge 1920, or 16-3840 px; the
height follows the slide's aspect ratio, no side over 3840), secondsPerSlide (0.1-600, default 5,
written in GIF hundredths), loop (forever by default, or once: no NETSCAPE2.0 block), slides (a
list of indices, in play order) and includeHidden (hidden slides are skipped by default).
Out-of-range or wrongly typed values, NaN and infinities are BadParams errors, never panics; at
most 500 frames and 200 million pixels in total, checked before anything is rendered.
- Engine: crates/engine/src/gif_export.rs (options, frame list, size, encoder);
cmd::file::gif_bytes, save_bytes("gif"), format_for_path(".gif").
- UI: the Export… dialog (Command palette; the app has no File menu yet) gets "Animated GIF (.gif)" with Size, Seconds per slide, From/To slide,
Loop forever and Include hidden slides; an invalid range or value keeps the dialog open with a
message. The web build downloads the bytes (image/gif).
- CLI: convert IN OUT.gif, run --export OUT.gif --export-params JSON; usage lists the format and
options.
- MCP: the export tool lists gif and width/secondsPerSlide/loop (slides and includeHidden now
apply to PDF and GIF).
- Docs: file-format parity GIF row, gaps (video export remains), parity checklist row M -> P
(P2 breadth 36% -> 37%, overall 79%), control protocol, MCP, README, ROADMAP progress log.
Transitions and build animations are not animated in the GIF (tracked with video export).
