 | 2026-11-02 | patch | M4: Backspace or Delete at the start of a list item takes its marker and keeps its level ("Use Backspace or Delete at the beginning of a list item to delete the counter, but keep the same level of indentation", Create bulleted and numbered lists): a plain paragraph may now carry a list level, and the text layout starts it where that level's item text starts (the gutters stay even when no list is left). Backspace used to drop the level too, and Delete at an item's start deleted the next character. Tab on such a paragraph types a tab, as outside a list. Tests: `text_tail_tests::list_keys_at_list_items`, text crate `behaviour_tests::a_plain_paragraph_at_a_list_level_starts_where_the_items_text_does` |
 | 2026-11-02 | patch | M4: max lines on an auto-width text keep it auto width: the box hugs up to that many lines and still grows with its longest line ("Max lines is available only if truncate text is enabled, and: Text resizing is set to auto height or auto width", Explore text properties). `text.maxLines` turned such a text into a fixed truncating box with a stale height, so later typing no longer widened it; fixed-size text still becomes a truncating box, auto-height text hugs as before. Test: `text_behaviour_tests::max_lines_on_auto_width_text_keeps_auto_width_and_hugs_that_many_lines` |
 | 2026-11-02 | patch | M4, #1828: superscript and subscript synthesised where the font has no `sups` / `subs` glyphs (the standard glyph shrunk and shifted by the OS/2 metrics, the usual 0.65 em and 0.35 / 0.14 em offsets without them), and a run mixing available and unavailable glyphs synthesised whole, as Explore text properties says. Tests: `text::tests::superscript_native_or_synthesised_and_never_mixed`, `text_behaviour_tests::superscript_and_subscript_are_synthesised_without_glyphs_for_them`. |
+| 2026-11-02 | patch | Shortcuts: Alt+Enter while editing text opens the link at the caret ("When editing text, press ⌥Option Return/Alt Enter to activate a focused link", Accessibility at Figma) through the new `text.openLink` command, which hands a web or mail link to the platform's opener and refuses any other scheme as the prototype player does; editing goes on. The key went to the editor as a plain Enter before. A documented row: 134 documented, 133 bound. Tests: engine `text_link_tests`, `text_link_tests` (UI) |
 | 2026-11-01 | patch | Shortcuts: Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+Alt+= and - make the interface larger and smaller through the sizes Preferences offers, and Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+Alt+0 puts it back to the system's size ("Adjust the scale of the Figma UI [...] Reset to Default: Control ⇧Shift Alt 0; Make Larger: Control ⇧Shift Alt =; Make Smaller: Control ⇧Shift Alt -", Accessibility at Figma); the size is kept at once, as one picked in Preferences is. `pref.uiScaleUp`, `pref.uiScaleDown`, `pref.uiScaleReset`; the sizes list now lives in the engine (`UI_SCALE_SIZES`) and Preferences reads it from there. Found by a documentation audit of the shortcuts. Test: `keymap_tests::the_interface_size_keys_step_through_the_preferences_sizes`. Documented rows 130 → 133, bound 129 → 132 |

Down and right turn clockwise, up and left back (the documentation is silent on the direction). In the shortcuts panel's Transform tab, over the control channel's `ui.key` too. Found by a documentation audit of the shortcuts. Test: `shortcut_keys_tests::cmd_alt_arrows_rotate_a_degree_and_fifteen_with_shift`. Documented rows 129 → 130, bound 128 → 129 |

Found by a documentation audit of the shortcuts (every chord driven over the control channel). Tests: `keymap_tests::the_layers_panel_answers_both_of_its_documented_windows_keys`, the parity row.
