 # UI and interaction parity
 
-> **Last reviewed:** 2026-10-10 · **Last updated:** 2026-11-10 · **Change:** minor (the text caret takes the text's solid fill colour (#2156); a boolean group takes a corner radius (and smoothing) that rounds every sharp corner of its result (#2222); the Point section's X and Y in vector edit mode show Mixed and set every selected point of the layer being edited, as in Figma; Preferences ▸ Invert zoom direction reverses wheel zoom, pinch unchanged (#2145); Shift while rotating lands on absolute multiples of 15°, measured in Figma; Flatten bakes a vector's point corner radius into its path (#2195); a click on a fill, stroke or effect row's grip or background highlights it, Cmd/Ctrl+C copies that paint or effect and Cmd/Ctrl+V pastes it onto the selected layers, as the help center's Copy and paste properties between layers says (#1494); wrap style per paragraph and in text styles (#1827); the Annotation tool (Shift+T, `tool.annotation {id?}`): with a layer selected (or an `id`) it asks the UI for that layer's note at once, and in the tool a press on a layer selects it and asks for its note, a press on empty canvas does nothing; the marquee follows Figma's measured rules: a partly covered frame or section gives the layers in it the marquee touches, a rotated shape is touched by its outline, a drag from inside a frame selects that frame only when the marquee also takes another top-level frame (then whole) (`marquee_behaviour_tests`); copy, cut and paste in vector edit mode act on the selected points and segments (#1875); M8, #2146: K focuses the Scale tool's factor field with its text selected, so K, 2, Enter scales the selection by two about the panel's origin (FigCraft's starts at the top left; Figma's grid starts at the centre, left for a follow-up because the origin also sets where a handle drag pivots, which is not measured) in one undo step, after which the tool returns to Move with the selection kept; Escape in the field closes it with the tool back on Move and nothing changed (measured in Figma's web app, 2026-11-09; `pressing_k_focuses_the_scale_field_with_its_text_selected`, `k_two_enter_scales_the_selection_by_two`, `escape_in_the_scale_field_closes_it_and_changes_nothing`); the main menu and its submenus stay inside the window, moving up to fit and scrolling when taller (#2217); locked layers ignore the arrow keys and a locked parent's children can't be locked on their own (#1560); the left rail's and tab strip's icons are larger, 20 pt (#553); pick select: Tab while the keyboard selection box shows (or the chord again) puts a pink outline on a layer and the keys walk the layer tree from it, as Accessibility at Figma says (#1836); scrubbing a field faster or slower by the pointer's height, with a notice of the speed, as the help center's Scrub fields says (#1837); component rows in the Layers panel at AA contrast in the theme's component tint, with the rows inside a selected component in a tone of its row (#1903); Cmd/Ctrl-click on a padding field sets all four sides with the value typed, a documented auto layout shortcut; a fill per region of a vector: with regions selected in edit mode, the Fill section and the fill commands edit those regions' own fills, as Edit vector layers says (#1875); the Fill section of a text whose characters were coloured differently while editing shows mixed content, characters that all share fills the layer doesn't have show those, and a layer-level fill edit reaches every character (#1856); a number field scrubs when dragged with Alt held, as the help center's scrub section says, not only by its label; reuse visible layer selection roots (M8); ; with a shape or frame tool chosen and nothing selected, the arrows show a placement crosshair in the middle of the view and move it, and Enter places there, as Accessibility at Figma says (#1839); text direction per paragraph: Text ▸ Text direction forces a paragraph left to right or right to left, as Add right-to-left text says (#1830), with `text.direction`, `node.set textDirection`, the Type settings control once a right-to-left script is in the text, inspect, the CSS `direction` and the `.fig` lines' `sourceDirectionality`; the boolean operation menu in the Design panel leads each entry with an original icon drawn in code, a filled preview of the result (#2003); a press on the open gradient's handles or stops on the canvas keeps the colour picker open through the drag, as its own control (#1852); a click with the Bend tool on a sharp point curves it, its handles along the line between its neighbours, as Edit vector layers says (#1875); wrap style: Auto, Balance and Pretty on a text layer decide where its lines break, as Explore text properties says (#1827), with the Type settings control, `text.wrapStyle`, `node.set wrapStyle`, inspect and the CSS `text-wrap`; Backspace or Delete at the start of a list item keeps the item's indentation level, as the lists article says; max lines on auto-width text keep it auto widthLine truncated

 Fine canvas control is what Figma users feel first: handles, snapping, nudging, modifier keys,
 drag behaviour, numeric precision. This checklist covers the tools, gestures and panels. Status:

 | Date | Change | Summary |
 |---|---|---|
 | 2026-11-09 | patch | M3, #2156: the text caret takes the text's solid fill colour (red text, red caret; light grey on a dark frame, light grey, one colour and no inversion), measured in Figma's web app: the fill of the character before the caret (the first one's at the start); FigCraft draws it opaque (how Figma treats a translucent fill was not measured); gradient, image and hidden fills (not measured) give a black caret on a light surface and a white one on a dark one (the nearest layer around the text whose top visible fill is a solid at least half opaque as drawn, counting layer opacity, else the page; a layer whose top fill is a gradient or an image is passed over), not the interface's text colour (white in the dark theme, invisible on the default light page, #2190). Width and height unchanged; collaborators' carets unchanged. Tests: `caret_tests` |
+| 2026-11-10 | patch | M1, #2198: with a shape, frame, slice or Text tool the pointer was the system's crosshair, white under some pointer styles on Windows and lost on the default white frame; it is now drawn at the pointer in dark lines with a white edge, open at the centre (`Glyph::Crosshair`), so it shows on any canvas colour. |
 | 2026-11-10 | minor | M4, #2222: a boolean group takes a corner radius that rounds every sharp corner of its result (measured in Figma's web app), Boolean groups row |
 | 2026-11-08 | minor | M8: measured in Figma on 2026-11-08, vector edit mode's Point section: X and Y show the value the selected points share, or Mixed when they differ, and a typed value sets every selected point's own coordinate in the layer being edited, points of other edited layers left as they are (it moved the group's top-left before); a relative edit (`+10`, `*2`, `/2`) typed into a Mixed field applies to each point's own value (`vector.edit.position` takes a number or `{add}`, `{mul}`, `{div}` per axis); the W and H row and other edited layers' points are unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-09 | patch | Preferences ▸ Invert zoom direction (#2145): Cmd/Ctrl+wheel, and a plain mouse wheel with Scroll wheel zoom on, zoom the other way; pinch and panning unchanged. Numbers unchanged. |
