Make the slide show behave like PowerPoint for interactive decks.
- Hit testing resolves the topmost visible shape under the pointer.
Non-interactive shapes block shapes beneath them; the hand cursor
shows only over interactive shapes.
- Click-triggered animations (interactive sequences) play on shape
click, repeat after their last step, and apply in click order so
cycling "score ring" shapes work.
- Each slide keeps its own progress: returning to a slide through a
link or Back restores hidden shapes and animation state.
- A shape with a link and an animation follows the link immediately;
its animation clock only runs while the slide is shown and resumes
with the remaining time on return.
- With advance-on-click off, background clicks still play animation
steps but never change slide.
- A click on a playing step completes it at once.
Docs (gaps, animation and slide show parity, roadmap) are updated.

The Bullets and Numbering menus only offered a fixed list of styles.
"Bullets and Numbering…" at the foot of both menus opens PowerPoint's
dialog: Bulleted and Numbered tabs with their styles, a custom bullet
character, Start at, Size (% of text, 25-400) and Color (automatic,
text or an accent), and None.
format.numbering now takes color and size like format.bullets, and
both clamp the size to PowerPoint's 25-400 %.

The Picture Format > Remove Background button was a disabled
placeholder. picture.removeBackground now flood-fills from every edge
pixel through similar colours: each step must be close to the pixel
before it (so gradients and soft shadows follow) and to the edge colour
it started from (so it can't leak into the subject). That region turns
transparent with a one-pixel soft edge, and the picture points at a new
PNG; undo brings the original back. Tolerance 0-100 (default 20); the
ribbon offers normal, looser and tighter. Pictures whose edges are all
subject are left alone, and pictures over 16 megapixels are refused.

shape.pointType makes a vertex smooth (handles in line and equal),
straight (in line) or corner (independent), turning its segments into
curves so it has handles. shape.moveHandle drags a control handle; the
other one follows as the point's type says (given, or read from the
handles). shape.points also reports each vertex's type.
Canvas: clicking a vertex shows its handles, which drag (one undo step
per drag) and follow the type chosen for it. Right-click a vertex for
Smooth / Straight / Corner Point and Delete Point, or anywhere for Exit
Edit Points; a shape's context menu gets Edit Points. The selection box
is hidden while points are edited.

New cmd::points with shape.editPoints (enter/leave; a preset becomes a
freeform in shape-local points), shape.points (vertices in slide points),
shape.movePoint, shape.addPoint (splits a line, quadratic or cubic
segment) and shape.deletePoint. After each change the box is fitted
around the outline and kept in place on the slide, rotation and flips
included. Closing edges are made explicit so they take points too.
On the canvas the edited shape shows its vertices as handles: drag one
(one undo step per drag), Cmd/Ctrl-click a vertex to delete it or the
outline to add one; Escape, Enter or a click elsewhere leaves Edit
Points. Shape Format ▸ Edit Shape gets an Edit Points item.
Not yet: smooth/straight/corner point types and Bézier control handles.

ui_soak_tests.rs drives the app through the egui test harness with seeded
random clicks, drags, keys (plain, Ctrl, Shift), typing and scrolling over the
sample deck. Every ten actions it checks that every document validates, the
selection is in range, undo, journal, thumbnail and texture caches stay
bounded, and no command or render panic was caught; at the end, that input
really reached the editor and the mean frame stays under 250 ms. Two seeds x
150 actions run in CI; DECKCRAFT_UI_SOAK_STEPS/SEED run it long.
Panics swallowed by the guards were invisible to tests: Session now counts
them (panics_caught) and deckcraft_render::panics_caught() counts render
panics drawn as blank. Textures::thumb_count exposes the thumbnail cache size.

Shape Format ▸ Text Effects lists the 40 prstTxWarp presets and
No Transform. format.textWarp sets or clears that warp on the
selected text, with optional adjust values.

soak_tests.rs drives every non-file command with plausible and hostile
parameters over a ~100-slide deck, checking after each step that the
document validates, the selection is in range, the undo stack is bounded,
undo then redo restores the exact document, and every 100 steps that the
deck saves and reopens as .deckcraft and .pptx. Four seeds x 400 steps run
in CI (under a second); DECKCRAFT_SOAK_STEPS/SEED run it long.
The long soak found that a chart a few points wide panicked in f64::clamp
(label gutter min above max), and the render guard then blanked the whole
slide. chart.rs now uses a non-panicking clamp_soft for the gutters and the
zero line; a render test draws tiny charts next to a shape without the
guard.

A deck that embeds a TrueType or OpenType face, including one wrapped as Embedded OpenType, now draws with that face and saves it back. MicroType Express subsets stay in the file and still draw in a stand-in.

The writer emitted the legacy comment part only: replies were flattened
into sibling comments, the resolved flag was dropped. Modern PowerPoint
decks carry a second, threaded part (p188) as well - and DeckCraft read
both, importing every comment twice.
Export now writes the modern threaded part (p188:cmLst, with the slide's
commentRel anchor ext and the modern authors part) next to the flattened
legacy part, the same pair of parts PowerPoint itself writes: older
readers keep the legacy view, PowerPoint 2021+ and DeckCraft read
threads, replies and resolved state. The reader prefers the modern part
when both are present and scales modern positions as EMU instead of
legacy 1/8 pt, so real PowerPoint decks stop double-importing their
comments and keep their marker positions.
Comment ids are deterministic GUIDs from the existing tables::guid, so
exports stay reproducible without a new dependency.
Known limitation for a follow-up: comments anchor with
p188:unknownAnchor (schema-valid) rather than a slide moniker, which
needs part identity the model does not have yet.
Tests: threads plus resolved state round-trip on top-level comments and
replies, both parts and the anchor-rel wiring asserted in the raw
package, part numbering with comment-free slides skipped, legacy-only
and modern-only packages import each with their own position units, and
XML-special characters survive the trip.
Progress log entry for the wild-case rendering fixes; "Bevel and 3-D
rotation" moves from missing to partial (approximate bevels, cameras and
face lighting; no extrusion, rigs or 3-D pane); gap estimate narrowed.

* Engine: file.info and PowerPoint-style print slide ranges (#76)
file.info reports what File › Info shows (name, path, format, unsaved
changes, slide and hidden-slide counts, sections, size on disk,
properties). file.export's PDF `slides` also takes the range typed in
PowerPoint's Print page ("1-3, 5", 1-based); bad or out-of-range text is
an error instead of a silent full export.

* UI: the File tab (Backstage) like PowerPoint's (#76)
File (first ribbon tab) or Alt+F opens a full-window view in place of the
ribbon, slides and status bar: a side menu (Back, Home, New, Open, Info,
Save, Save As, Print, Export, Close; Account and Options at the bottom)
and the chosen page. Esc or Back returns; Up/Down walk the side menu and
show each page as it gets the focus; Enter runs Save/Close/Options.
Laid out after PowerPoint for Windows as observed: 160-pt menu a step
darker than the page, outline icons, current page in the accent colour.
The start screen is now File › Home (as in PowerPoint), with only Home,
New and Open at the top and no Back. Pages call existing commands and
file helpers: file.new {theme} and the sample deck (Home, New); recent
files with search, Browse and Recover Unsaved (Open); file.info and
file.properties, Accessibility Checker, Revert (Info); file.save /
file.saveAs / file.export by type (Save, Save As); a PDF with the Print
page's slides, layout (full page, notes, handouts 1-9), hidden slides and
frames, opened in the system viewer or downloaded on the web, with a
page preview (Print, Ctrl+P); Create PDF, Create Handouts and Change File
Type (Export); appearance and About (Account); Preferences (Options).
Share (cloud) is left out.
Close and Ctrl+W now ask Save / Don't Save / Cancel about unsaved
changes instead of closing at once. The Export dialog shares
SlideApp::export_as with the Export page. New UI commands: app.backstage
{page}, app.closePresentation, app.print; ui.inspect reports the page.
New icons drawn in code: back, save as, account, recent, new file, open
folder.

* ActiveX controls show their pictures
A slide's p:controls are read: each control with a p:pic (the image PowerPoint shows for it,
often a WMF) becomes a picture above the slide's shapes.

* Metafiles draw their text, pattern and hatch brushes
deckcraft-metafile (still kurbo + thiserror only, so it builds for wasm):
- Text: WMF EXTTEXTOUT/TEXTOUT and EMF EXTTEXTOUTW/EXTTEXTOUTA/SMALLTEXTOUT with the
selected font (CREATEFONTINDIRECT, EXTCREATEFONTINDIRECTW: face, signed LOGFONT height,
width, weight, italic, underline, strike-out, escapement, charset), text and background
colour, background mode, TA_* alignment and TA_UPDATECP, the dx array (ETO_PDY pairs too),
ETO_OPAQUE fills and ETO_CLIPPED clips. 8-bit strings decode through their charset
(Windows-1252/1250/1251; symbol fonts keep their codes at U+F000; double-byte sets keep
their advances). The neutral Item::Text carries a text-space-to-picture transform, so the
mapping and escapement are folded in and glyphs are never mirrored.
- Brushes: WMF DIBCREATEPATTERNBRUSH, EMF CREATEDIBPATTERNBRUSHPT and CREATEMONOBRUSH, and
BS_HATCHED, as Item::Pattern tiles in 96-dpi pixels; WMF PATBLT. The XOR / AND-pattern /
XOR see-through shadow of old PowerPoint WMFs draws its pattern in the XOR colour.
- MFCOMMENT escapes with an embedded EMF are ignored: PowerPoint draws the WMF's records.
- Pattern pixels and text count against the byte budget; strings are capped.
deckcraft-render draws text through deckcraft-fonts with the face slide text would use
(document_face), symbol fonts mapped as bullets map them (deckcraft_text::symbol_char, now
public, with Webdings), per-character fallback, the file's advances, GDI cell metrics for
top/bottom alignment, underline/strike-out and synthetic bold/italic. Tiles below 1.5 output
pixels per cell are drawn as their average colour.
On the 24 corpus slides that show a metafile, mean abs diff against PowerPoint goes from
28.31 to 5.06 (with the OLE/ActiveX preview commits).

* Text: input method composition as commands, one undo step per composition (#101)
text.compose shows an input method's preedit in place at the insertion point and replaces it on
each update; an empty preedit cancels and restores the text and selection. text.commit replaces
the composition with the result as one undo step. Any other edit, key or click settles an open
composition first. The composition is underlined under the baseline (thicker under the part being
converted), and the caret line is measured for empty placeholders too.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
* UI: Korean, Japanese and Chinese input and interface text (#101)
The slide turns the input method on while it takes typing, with the candidate window at the
caret, and forwards egui Ime events to text.compose / text.commit, so a Korean keyboard composes
syllables instead of separate jamo. Interface text in scripts the interface fonts lack (Hangul,
Simplified Chinese, Thai...) borrows faces from the font database (installed fonts such as Malgun
Gothic; nothing bundled): file names, titles, notes, outline, sections, comments and typed text.
Ported and widened from WordCraft's #565/#840 fallback. The notes pane keeps text typed before
focus leaves in the same frame (Escape, another slide). Control channel: ui.ime.

* Text warps: draw WordArt prstTxWarp presets, round-trip their adjusts
All 40 DrawingML text-warp presets now render instead of drawing flat text.
A warp is a list of bands over the shape's text rectangle (insets ignored):
fill bands stretch the ink of their lines between a top and a bottom guide
(positions by arc length, one horizontal scale for the whole text), follow
bands (arch, circle, button) set lines at natural size along an ellipse arc,
lines stacking outwards on parallel curves, with no wrapping. Lines are
shared over multi-band presets in order (ceil(n/k) per band).
The guide curves were fitted to PowerPoint renders of synthetic decks of
"I" bars (black-box observation, defaults and changed adjusts, 1-3 lines);
most presets match within about a point on a 420 x 200 pt box.
- geom: warp module (guides, presets, band mapping) with unit tests
- render: glyph outlines and underlines flattened, subdivided and mapped
- text: follow warps lay out without wrapping
- model/pptx: BodyProps.warp_adj read from and written to prstTxWarp/avLst

* Text warps: bands with fewer lines keep the fuller band's text height
Multi-band fill warps (Deflate-Inflate, Button Pour) map a box as tall as
the tallest band's ink onto every band, centred on the band's own ink, as
PowerPoint does: a band holding one line next to a band of two keeps the
line at the same size instead of stretching it over the whole band.
