Preserve notes and handout master export, visible text and native parallel
compression while propagating shared font errors through each export path.
Keep the dependency check accurate for native and WASM feature resolution.
PR #708.
Union merges of the 2026-10-14 community PR wave stacked header lines and
left near-duplicate rows, bullets and paragraphs with per-PR counts. Each
progress doc now has one status line and one row per fact, with current
numbers: breadth 84% over 191 features (cargo xtask parity, after removing
duplicate Thesaurus/AutoCorrect/Artistic effects/Corrections checklist
rows), 320 engine commands, 41 dialogs, 1,641 tests.

Animations › Preview and Animation Pane › Play All play the current
slide on the canvas instead of opening the slide show. Escape or a
click stops playback. Transitions › Preview still opens the show.

There was no way to turn a presentation into an animated GIF. file.export now writes one: format
`gif` (or a .gif path), one frame per slide drawn by the slide renderer and shown for
secondsPerSlide, encoded with the `image` crate's GIF encoder (already a dependency, no new
crates) with a 256-colour palette per frame: exact when a slide has 256 colours or fewer,
NeuQuant otherwise. Slides are composited onto white.
Options: width (small 640, medium 960 (default), large 1280, extraLarge 1920, or 16-3840 px; the
height follows the slide's aspect ratio, no side over 3840), secondsPerSlide (0.1-600, default 5,
written in GIF hundredths), loop (forever by default, or once: no NETSCAPE2.0 block), slides (a
list of indices, in play order) and includeHidden (hidden slides are skipped by default).
Out-of-range or wrongly typed values, NaN and infinities are BadParams errors, never panics; at
most 500 frames and 200 million pixels in total, checked before anything is rendered.
- Engine: crates/engine/src/gif_export.rs (options, frame list, size, encoder);
cmd::file::gif_bytes, save_bytes("gif"), format_for_path(".gif").
- UI: the Export… dialog (Command palette; the app has no File menu yet) gets "Animated GIF (.gif)" with Size, Seconds per slide, From/To slide,
Loop forever and Include hidden slides; an invalid range or value keeps the dialog open with a
message. The web build downloads the bytes (image/gif).
- CLI: convert IN OUT.gif, run --export OUT.gif --export-params JSON; usage lists the format and
options.
- MCP: the export tool lists gif and width/secondsPerSlide/loop (slides and includeHidden now
apply to PDF and GIF).
- Docs: file-format parity GIF row, gaps (video export remains), parity checklist row M -> P
(P2 breadth 36% -> 37%, overall 79%), control protocol, MCP, README, ROADMAP progress log.
Transitions and build animations are not animated in the GIF (tracked with video export).

wgpu's default DX12 compiler (Auto) loads whichever dxcompiler.dll the DLL
search path finds. DeckCraft ships none, and without a matching dxil.dll the
unsigned-DXIL warning fails wgpu's indirect-validation pipeline, the device
is lost and the app exits before the first frame. Pin the compiler to FXC,
which is part of Windows; WGPU_DX12_COMPILER still overrides it.
Fixes#153

- release.yml: new linux-riscv64 job, ported from GridCraft. Cross-compiles on
ubuntu-24.04 against ports.ubuntu.com riscv64 libs (incl. libasound2-dev:riscv64),
packages a tar.gz and smoke-tests deckcraft-cli --version under QEMU. The release
job needs it, so the draft and SHA256SUMS include it.
- packaging/linux/package.sh: CROSS_ARCH/CROSS_TARGET/CROSS_COMPILE/EMULATOR support.
- README Downloads: list the riscv64 tarball.
- Version 0.4.0 -> 0.5.0 (cargo xtask version set).

cpal pulls in alsa-sys, whose build script needs alsa.pc from the ALSA
development package; the other Linux -sys crates (wayland-sys with dlopen)
link nothing at build time, so this is the only extra package. CI already
installs libasound2-dev; the README now says so for people building locally.

eframe's default wgpu instance enables PRIMARY | GL on Windows. Creating
the OpenGL backend can crash inside AMD's atio6axx.dll before the window
appears, so the app exits silently at launch. When WGPU_BACKEND is not
set, the Windows instance now enables only DirectX 12; an explicit
WGPU_BACKEND is still honoured. macOS, Linux and web are unchanged.
Same fix as storytold/designcraft#168 and storytold/filmcraft#179.

The desktop app installed no logger, so every log::warn!/log::error! in
the workspace was discarded: the crash guard's panic report, a failed
crash-recovery save, PowerPoint parts skipped on import, audio output
problems. A launch from a desktop menu has no terminal either, so there
was nothing to attach to a bug report.
apps/deckcraft/src/logging.rs (no new dependency):
- standard error plus <settings dir>/logs/deckcraft.log (beside ui.json
and prefs.json); each launch rotates the previous log to
deckcraft.1.log and .2.log, so the log of a run that crashed survives
the next start; the file is capped at 16 MiB
- records logged before the settings directory is known are buffered
(bounded) and written once the file is attached
- default levels: info for deckcraft*, warn for everything else;
RUST_LOG replaces them with env_logger-style directives
- never panics: an unusable directory or a failed write leaves standard
error as the only sink; a poisoned lock is tolerated
- a record holds the lock for one write of an already formatted line
The cpal error callback runs on the realtime audio thread (on ALSA in a
loop while the device stays broken), so it no longer logs: it keeps the
first error without blocking, and the UI thread logs it when the stream
stops.
The logger is installed first in main (before the engine's panic hook)
and the file is opened after argument parsing (--version leaves no
file). The settings directory moves out of prefs_path into config_dir.
The start-up eprintln!s (sample, files that fail to open, control
server) now go through the logger. Documented in README.md (Getting
started > Logs).

- Windows: add arm64 (aarch64-pc-windows-msvc) to the matrix. package.ps1, sign.ps1 and the
WiX source already handled it; nothing in the dependency tree blocks the target (clippy -D
warnings is clean for it).
- Flatpak: x86_64 and aarch64 bundles repackage the Linux job's tarball (PhotoCraft's
approach: same binaries and embedded fonts as the AppImage/deb/rpm, no Rust build). The
from-source manifest stays for Flathub; packaging-lint keeps the two in sync. Both now grant
--socket=pulseaudio so slide-show audio/video plays in the sandbox.
- AppImage: embed gh-releases-zsync update information and publish the .zsync beside it.
- Jobs that sign nothing (version, linux, flatpak, freebsd, web) leave the release environment,
so a branch dispatch is a dry run; the draft-release job now requires every build.
- README: Downloads section.
