 ## Progress log
 
+- **2026-11-05** · M10, #2014: the desktop UI takes a system face for Ethiopic, Devanagari, Gurmukhi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam, Sinhala, Lao, Myanmar, Khmer, Armenian and Georgian as it did for Hebrew and Arabic (`bidi::script_fallbacks`: one sample letter per script, the system's families for each; Bengali and Thai keep `crate::cjk`'s choice), so a layer name or a String variable's Amharic value draws in the panels instead of boxes. Test: `bidi::tests::other_scripts_take_an_installed_system_face`.
 - **2026-11-05** · M4, #1830: a paragraph's base direction can be forced (Text ▸ Text direction: Auto, Left to right, Right to left) as Add right-to-left text says ("controls are available to override text direction per paragraph"). `ParaList::direction`, `text.direction {direction, ids?}` and the three menu commands (the edited paragraphs while editing, else the layer's), `node.set textDirection`, the Type settings control once a right-to-left script is in the text, `textDirection` / `lineDirections` in inspect, the CSS `direction`, and the `.fig` lines' `sourceDirectionality` in and out. Layout gives each paragraph its base level (`Bidi::of` per paragraph). Tests: `text_behaviour_tests::text_direction_is_forced_per_paragraph`, `fig::text_direction_tests`.
 - **2026-11-05** · M1, #2003: the Design panel's Boolean groups menu leads Union, Subtract, Intersect and Exclude with original icons drawn in code from rectangles and polygons (two offset squares, the result filled at reduced alpha); each entry still runs its command.
 - **2026-10-30**: M8, #1125: damaged `trak` size-table offsets are checked instead of wrapping on 32-bit targets, and an incomplete normal track is dropped entirely, never returned in part. Font indexing makes its existing bounds explicit, preserving later faces and sparse name-table reads. Synthetic regression tests in `fontdb_tests.rs`. Numbers unchanged.

+| 2026-11-05 | patch | #2014: the panels drew a String variable's Amharic value as boxes: the UI took a system face for Hebrew and Arabic only. `bidi::script_fallbacks` now samples one letter of each of 16 scripts (Ethiopic, Devanagari, Gurmukhi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam, Sinhala, Lao, Myanmar, Khmer, Armenian and Georgian as well as Hebrew and Arabic; Bengali and Thai keep `crate::cjk`'s faces) against the system's families for each (Windows, macOS, the common Linux fonts), the first installed one that draws the letter taken once. Desktop only: the web build has no system fonts. Test: `bidi::tests::other_scripts_take_an_installed_system_face` (skips scripts the machine has no face for). |
 | 2026-11-05 | minor | Documents: a paragraph's base direction can be forced left to right or right to left (Text ▸ Text direction, `text.direction`, `node.set textDirection`, the Type settings control, the `.fig` lines' `sourceDirectionality`), as Add right-to-left text says (#1830); detection stays the default. Four new UI strings (English only; other catalogs fall back). |
 | 2026-10-30 | minor | Bosnian (`bs`, Bosanski) draft catalog: every UI string (1,906), command label (629) and menu wording (31), machine-drafted in Latin script with ijekavian forms and marked as a draft awaiting native review. Bosnian plurals: one for 1, 21, 31… (not 11), few for 2–4, 22–24… (not 12–14), other for the rest. Grade and hours unchanged (Bosnian is not one of the twelve key languages) |
 | 2026-10-29 | minor | German terminology corrections (M10): gradient stops, OpenType stylistic sets and the Home-screen preference; partial review, catalog remains a draft. Nine existing translations corrected; keys, placeholders, coverage, grade and estimates unchanged |
