 Recovery discovery no longer interrupts an explicitly created or opened document. Older copies remain in File › Recover, whose buttons use the interface palette. See [local recovery](recovery.md).
 
 Group connectors (gap 10): re-routing preserves displayed rotated and flipped free endpoints after unit, uniform or nonuniform group scaling, including ends whose target shape or site cannot be resolved. Glued endpoints still use their existing connection-site path. Degenerate display scales that cannot be inverted, or fallback spans exceeding the renderer's 4000 pt child-size cap, leave connectors needing fallback endpoints unchanged; fully resolved connectors still reroute. Invalid child extents retain the renderer's unit-scale fallback. Model and engine regressions cover this geometry and guard against nonfinite coordinate writes and repeated shrinkage at the display cap; routing around shapes remains missing, with no new native Word comparison.

+| On-canvas objects: select, drag, resize handles, nudge | ✅ tested (#228); a picture or shape behind text can be dragged across the overlapping text (body and header/footer), whether or not it was selected first, while a click without movement still edits that text. Inside a Drawing Canvas a click picks the member under it (shape, picture or text box) on its own, its frame and handles shown inside the canvas frame; it is dragged, resized, turned and nudged inside the canvas, and Shape Format, Delete, Cut and Copy act on it alone; a click in a text box member's text puts the caret there (#2637, `objects::tests::clicking_and_dragging_inside_a_canvas_works_on_its_members`). Not yet: Shift+click on several members, dragging a member out of its canvas, drag-selecting a text box member's text, members of a turned canvas | ✅ | 75% | — |
 | On-canvas objects: select, drag, Ctrl+drag to copy, Ctrl+Shift+drag to copy along an axis, resize handles, nudge | ✅ tested (#228, #1014); Ctrl/Command+Shift on a selected floating picture, shape or text box copies along the dominant horizontal or vertical axis, with guides only along the free axis; the original and clipboard stay, the duplicate is selected, and the drop is one undo step. Inline copies still follow the text insertion cursor (#4764). Synthetic Linux pointer/render tests only; native desktop and Word untested; an In Line with Text object drags within the text as in Word: a dashed insertion cursor follows the pointer through the text and the drop (or Ctrl+drop copy) lands there, still inline (#2233, #2234) | ✅ | 75% | — |

+Protected typing at editable-region boundaries (#3614) walks consecutive permission starts or ends without repeated paragraph-prefix counts or ID-vector searches. Existing author matching, start-before-end movement, typing and Enter behavior, refusals and saved content remain unchanged. Native desktop behavior has not been newly tested.
 Aligned copy drags keep their locked document coordinate when middle-button scrolling moves the page, and Ctrl/Command+Shift can start on a secondary selected object. Plain Ctrl and Shift clicks keep their existing selection behavior (#4764).

 | Date | Change | Summary |
 |---|---|---|
+| 2026-10-17 | trivial | Drawing Canvas members are selected with a click and dragged, resized, turned, nudged, formatted, deleted and copied on their own inside the canvas; a click in a text box member's text puts the caret there (#2637) |
+| 2026-11-05 | trivial | On-canvas objects: dragging an In Line with Text picture, shape or text box shows a bold, solid insertion cursor, twice the caret's width, as in Word; the dashed one was hard to see (#4195) |
+| 2026-10-28 | trivial | Protected typing boundary lookup counts preceding objects once and indexes editable permission IDs (#3614); caret movement and enforcement policy are unchanged. |
 | 2026-10-31 | trivial | Dialogs are modal (#3859): while one is open, clicks on the ribbon, File or the page, typing and shortcuts do nothing, as in Word. Find and Replace, Symbol, Mark Index Entry, Cross-reference and Insert Merge Field stay modeless, as in Word for Mac. A press beside a modal dialog shakes it a little, or flashes its border with animation effects off, so it is clear why nothing behind it reacts |
 | 2026-10-17 | trivial | Copy and Cut put RTF beside the text and HTML on the system clipboard, for programs that read RTF rather than HTML (Windows "Rich Text Format", macOS `public.rtf`, Wayland `text/rtf`; an X11 copy stays text and HTML, since arboard owns the selection there; a copy of only pictures or shapes carries no HTML or RTF, so pasting it back keeps every detail); Paste reads another program's RTF on macOS and X11 too, as on Windows and Wayland |
 | 2026-11-03 | trivial | Comments: a long comment's card, balloon and fields stop at ten lines; the fields scroll, and a balloon that isn't selected shows the first ten lines of the comment and of each reply (#3382) |
+| 2026-11-03 | trivial | Over a turned picture, shape or text box, the pointer on a resize handle shows the arrow along which that handle resizes: turned 90°, the handle now at the top shows an up-down arrow (it showed left-right), turned 45° the middle handles show diagonal ones; also while the handle is dragged (#3932) |
+| 2026-11-03 | trivial | Shape Format › Size: the width and height show the interface unit and take a size typed in any unit (`3 cm`, `300 px`), applied once typed (Enter, Tab or a click elsewhere; Esc cancels), each side on its own, as Picture Format › Size does; in both, a field clicked and left without typing no longer resizes the object by the rounding of the size it shows (#4196) |
 | 2026-11-03 | minor | Arabic mirrored interface: title bar, ribbon, panes, File page, dialogs and menus run from the right; document canvas stays independent (#1195); Hebrew UI still open |
 | 2026-11-03 | minor | File › Options › Language: Your languages (English variants in use, installed Language packs, the document's languages) with each one's proofing status, Install, Remove and Set as default; Add a language… opens a searchable picker (dutch, nederlands, nl) sorted by name; the Dictionaries folder and the Dictionary files list moved here from Proofing, which has no Dictionaries section any more (CP4.3) |
 | 2026-10-28 | trivial | Fonts that aren't installed are flagged: the font box (ribbon, mini toolbar, both Font dialog boxes) shows a warning mark whose hover note names the font drawn instead; the status bar says "N fonts not installed" and lists them with the faces drawn instead (the first 20, then how many more), with Add Font…. The list comes from layout (`ParaLayout::substituted`), so it covers exactly the text shown, in every story, list labels and East Asian and complex-script text included, and a missing roman font drawn in Cambria counts. Metric-compatible substitutes (Carlito for Calibri, Caladea for Cambria, Liberation for Arial, Times New Roman and Courier New, the Palatino look-alikes) aren't flagged, since line breaks don't move, nor symbol fonts drawn as their Unicode equivalents (Word's bullets); headers and footers count only in views that show them, chart and SmartArt labels not yet; the font box reads the same list, so for text already shown the two agree, and it also warns for a missing font no text shows yet when the box shows a font to come: at a collapsed caret, the font the next letter will be typed in, and in the Font dialog, the fonts OK applies (the Asian text font too, over Latin text); Missing Fonts (`font.missing`, from command search or agents; it says what it found in the status line) and `format.state.fontShownAs` for agents |
