Tests: `board_route_tests` (three). Numbers unchanged. |
 | 2026-10-31 | minor | M12: as the help describes, holding Cmd/Ctrl while moving a connector's end places it on any part of an object instead of snapping to a side. It keeps that spot as a fraction of the object's box, so it follows the object when it moves or resizes, and without the key an end snaps as before. `board.connector {fromAt, toAt}` and `board.reattach {at}` take it; saved only when set. Numbers unchanged |
 | 2026-10-31 | patch | M12, #1708: a connector end dropped on the outer half of a shape takes the side it is towards, instead of only within 10 px of a side's middle, so a drop anywhere along an edge chooses that edge (dragging a selected connector's end and with the connector tool, ring included); a drop in the middle of a shape still takes the facing side. |
 | 2026-10-31 | minor | M12, #1710: a selected elbow or curved connector shows path handles. Dragging a run moves it and a first or last run gains an extra run to stay on its end; a curve's middle goes where it is dragged (`board.reshape`, one undo step). The shape travels with what the connector joins, is saved with the file, and goes back to routing itself when the style changes or an end moves to something else. |

With `team_files = "edit"` (or `comment`, `view`) everyone who reaches the server sees the files shared from it now (a link of theirs has a join code: Share ▸ Start sharing) and joins them by a team list link, `figcraft://join?server=…&file=…&team=1`, which carries no secret: the server hands out the file's team link while it stays shared (`ResolveTeam`, answered like a join code), and Stop sharing revokes it with the others, disconnecting whoever joined with it. Turning the list off or changing its access refuses the old team links at once. `collab.files {refresh}` asks the server in Preferences for its list (`Admin::Team`; not the public server FigCraft ships with), and Home ▸ Online shows it below your own files: a row joins its file, its menu copies the link for the app or, with the server's `web_url`, for the browser build (`<web_url>#join=…`). A browser build served beside its server names it with `<meta name="figcraft-server">`, the page's default for sharing, codes and the team list. No accounts: the list is for a server only your team reaches. Tests: `team_tests` (the server and apps over loopback), `code_tests` (links and the browser's driver), `online_tests` (the Online section), `query_tests` (the page's server).

+| 2026-11-06 | patch | M3: a layer's effect binding (`variable.bind`, `effects/<i>/<field>`) takes only a field its effect has, as an effect style's does: `effects/0/refraction` on a drop shadow, or a binding on an effect the layer doesn't have, is refused instead of being kept and doing nothing (a binding an older file has there still does nothing, and unbinds). Tests: `binding_lists_tests::a_layer_binds_only_fields_its_effects_have`. Grade unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-06 | minor | M3: Go to main component (context menu, Design panel, Ctrl+Alt+Cmd+K) on an instance of a library component opens the library file, as the help center describes for mains kept in another file ("Edit main components"); it used to refuse. The file opens in a tab, or an open tab comes to the front, on the main's page with the main selected and zoomed to: a nested instance goes to its own main, a variant to that variant. A main deleted from the library file since it was published leaves the file open with a note; a library file that moved, a team library on a server and a path off this computer are refused with a message. Test: `library::tests::going_to_a_library_main_opens_the_library_file`. Numbers unchanged |
 | 2026-11-02 | minor | M3, #1885: glass effects take variables, as the reference tool's do: its light angle, intensity, refraction, depth, dispersion, frost and splay bind to number variables on a layer (`variable.bind`, `effects/<i>/<lightAngle\|lightIntensity\|refraction\|depth\|dispersion\|radius\|splay>`, `radius` being the frost) and in an effect style (`style.bind`), and the Design panel's glass fields take a variable like the shadow and blur fields. A variable reads as the field shows it: intensity, refraction, dispersion and splay in percent. Tests: `binding_lists_tests::glass_fields_take_number_variables`, `effects_tests::glass_fields_take_bound_numbers_as_the_panel_shows_them`. Grade unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-01 | patch | M3: Delete on a layer inside an instance hides it (an override) instead of being refused ("You can't delete a layer or object from an instance. If you try, Figma will only toggle the layer's visibility instead of removing it", Guide to auto layout); `edit.delete` reports those ids under `hidden`, the structure and the main component stay as they were, one undo step; deleting the instance itself still removes it. Found by a documentation audit of the auto layout page. Test: `components_behaviour_tests::deleting_a_layer_inside_an_instance_hides_it_instead` (the refusal row for it is gone from `what_instances_cannot_override_is_refused`). Numbers unchanged |

+| 2026-11-04 | patch | M8, #1951 (#1506 again): a path broken open by deleting a point (Delete, not Shift+Delete) is filled closed by a straight line across the gap, as an open path's fill is; joining its two ends again (the pen onto the other end, Connect, ⌘J) left the loop without the new segment, so once the points were rounded the fill and the selection outline ran straight across while the stroke followed the segment and its arcs. Joining now closes the loop through the new segment ("Click to close the path."; "You can use the Paint tool to add fills to any closed regions of a vector network."): `ops::connect` puts it into the loop whose segments are the chain between the ends, at the gap and in the loop's own order, so a hole keeps its winding whichever end was clicked first; a loop listed out of walking order is left as it was. Evidence: `vectoredit::tests::a_rounded_chamfer_made_other_ways_fills_along_its_arcs` (fails on main: the loop kept 4 of 5 segments), `a_rounded_chamfer_cut_in_the_editor_fills_along_its_arcs` (Shift+Delete, with and without a region fill), `doc::tests::a_chamfered_rectangles_rounded_fill_is_cut_at_every_point` (fill, region path and stroke agree for every loop order and segment direction of a chamfered rectangle). |
 | 2026-11-06 | patch | M3: glass's docs say which centre `splay` bends away from: the centre of the layer's bounds, as the reference tool's, checked side by side on a ring and an L at Splay 0% and 100% (an inner edge bends towards the hole in both). And where a glass shape gets no core: past 4M px on the desktop and 1M on the web (`MAX_SHAPE_PX`) it bends along its edge normals, so a large glass text or vector can bend differently once zoomed into, in a 2× export, or on the web. Docs only. Grade unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-02 | minor | M3, #1885: glass bends towards its core, the shape shrunk by `depth` and the bevel, as the reference tool's: round a sharp corner the bend turns smoothly, and a thin part (a capsule, a letter's stroke) bends across itself, checked side by side on a capsule 44 units tall. Rounded rectangles work it out in closed form. A shape too big to keep whole at the zoom bends along its edge normals instead, so no render works out a core over more pixels than a kept shape holds. Tests: `glass::tests::a_sharp_corner_bends_round_towards_the_core`, `glass::tests::a_thin_part_bends_across_itself`, `glass::tests::a_shape_too_big_to_keep_bends_along_its_normals`, `glass_cut_tests::a_cut_through_the_pane_matches_the_whole_render`. Grade unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-02 | minor | M3, #1885: glass's light is a line on its 1-unit bevel added to the backdrop, as the reference tool's: fully where the edge faces the light, none below 0.35 of facing it, 0.6 as much on the opposite side, with a faint gradient across the curve. `splay` turns the bend from along the edge's normal towards the way away from the layer's centre and no longer widens the light, as in the reference tool. Checked side by side on synthetic files: a splay of 1 bends the backdrop towards the centre in both. Tests: `glass::tests::the_light_lies_on_the_bevel_and_the_gradient_across_the_curve`, `backdrop_tests::splay_turns_the_bend_towards_the_centre`, `glass_cut_tests::the_light_is_a_line_on_the_bevel`.

Layout gives the paragraph its base level, so a forced right-to-left paragraph of Latin letters starts at the right, mirrors its list gutter and indent and orders its runs right to left, and a forced left-to-right paragraph of Hebrew the other way ("By default, Figma automatically handles text direction based on language detection.

The canvas took the press and began the drag, then the picker, drawn later in the same frame, saw a press outside its card and closed, committing the drag's interaction at once; the handles vanished with it and the drag went on without an undo step of its own. Now the picker stays while a gradient handle or stop drags, and the drag is one undo step; a press elsewhere on the canvas still closes it. A handle drag whose button goes up off the canvas (over a panel or the picker) ends there too, instead of waiting, uncommitted, to move the handle to the next press on the canvas.

 | 2026-11-02 | patch | M8, #1875: a click with the Bend tool on a sharp point between two segments gives it handles along the line between its neighbours, a third of the way to each ("Click on a point or path where you want to add a curve", Edit vector layers); a click on a curved point still makes it sharp, a drag still sets the handles by hand, an endpoint is left alone. Between a handle's end and a point both within reach of the pointer, the nearer one on the page is hit (the handle on a tie), so a short path's point (its handles a few pixels long) can be clicked again. Before, only a drag curved a point, and a short one left two tiny handles in its direction. Tests: `vectoredit::tests::short_handles_leave_their_point_clickable`, `vectoredit::tests::a_bend_click_curves_a_sharp_point_between_its_neighbours`, `bend_tool_smooths_and_sharpens_points`. Numbers unchanged. |
