Shape Format › Size and the shape menu open a dialog for position,
size, rotation, scale and lock aspect ratio. One command writes them
together, so undo restores the whole change.

Insert › Icons places seventy Lucide 1.56.0 stroke icons as custom
geometry: no fill, round caps, and a line width scaled from the
24-unit design. The gallery searches by name. SVG paths, including
arcs, are converted when the icon is inserted so the renderer strokes
the outline.

Radar and filled radar charts are drawn polar: spokes per category,
polygon gridlines and value labels up the first spoke. Stock charts
draw high-low lines with close dashes, or up/down bars between open
and close, and are saved as c:stockChart (hiLowLines, upDownBars)
instead of a line chart; c:upDownBars is read, and chart.options takes
upDownBars. New stock charts start as high-low-close and new combo
charts as columns with a line.

Read the regionMap chartEx layout as a RegionMap chart (regions and
their colour values), write the part back as read while unchanged, and
when edited rebuild it with the original geography (projection, culture
and cached boundaries) carried over. With no map data in the repo, the
renderer draws each region as a value-coloured tile with a colour scale
and a note that the map itself is not drawn.

sp3d extrusionH (with extrusionClr, srgb or scheme) under a camera that
turns the shape now draws the shape's sides: its outline swept from the
back face to the front along the camera's view of the depth axis, in the
side colour shaded, before the face. camera::project3 projects points
off the shape's plane.
Read, keep and write every cx:lvl of a chartEx category dimension,
build a category tree from runs of parent labels, and draw treemaps as
nested squarified groups with banners and sunbursts as one ring per
level. Box & whisker honours quartileMethod="inclusive" (QUARTILE.INC)
on import, render, save and the chart.options command.

File › New and the start screen offer Briefing, Lesson, Pitch, Field Notes,
Quarterly and Evening Talk. Each is a few slides of our own text on one of
our themes. file.new takes template, and file.templates lists them. Passing
a theme as well, or blank, is refused. PowerPoint's large gallery is still
open.

Histograms and Paretos bin their observations (bin count, bin width or
Scott's rule) and draw as touching columns, a Pareto with its cumulative
line on a percentage axis. Box and whisker charts draw exclusive-quartile
boxes, 1.5 IQR whiskers, means and outliers per category group.
Edited and new Office 2016 charts are written as chartEx parts from the
model (with the plain-chart fallback), so a waterfall stays a waterfall.
The chart menus list all seven types, and chart.options sets bins and
waterfall totals.

An owned corpus slice checks combo charts with data labels, merged
tables with diagonal borders, and text columns, autofit, vertical text
and a WordArt warp. Trendlines (type, order, period, forecast,
intercept, equation and R²) are now read and written.
New owned corpus test on PowerPoint-shaped XML: a custom-theme deck with
shadow, glow, soft-edge and reflection effects and every common text and
shape hyperlink, and a two-master deck with its own themes and layouts.
The one loss it found: a:hlinkMouseOver on text runs was dropped; it is
now read into RunProps::hover and written back.
The sorter draws a bar for each section. Add Section splits at the current
slide, double-click renames in place, the chevron collapses that section, and
dragging the bar moves the section and its slides together.

An owned corpus opens, saves and reopens SmartArt and OLE kept as XML, audio and video bookmarks and trims, a section with a hidden slide, slide-number and date fields, ink, .glb models and animation repeat, bounce end and triggers. Relationship-bearing SmartArt and OLE, playback options and rewind stay with their open PRs.
Times open, per-slide render, save, the PPTX round trip and PDF export, and
reports peak memory; xtask builds the CLI in release, runs it on the sample
and any given decks, and compares with docs/benchmarks/baseline.json.
An owned corpus of those kinds survives open, save and reopen. A run's
inner shadow, reflection and soft edge were dropped, and a bevel preset
with no kept 3-D XML was not written back, so import and export now keep
them.
Adds edit.pasteSpecial. Keep Source Formatting bakes the copied shapes'
theme colours and theme fonts into fixed values (captured at copy time),

The editor had one window, so looking at another slide meant leaving
the one you were editing. View › New Window opens one more window on
the same presentation. That window keeps its own slide and shows edits

An owned corpus of those element kinds survives open, save and reopen.
Paragraph default run properties, including a link, and action sounds
were dropped on save, so import and export now keep them.
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.

These Office 2016 charts were drawn as plain columns. Now:
- waterfall: bars float from the running total, total points
(cx:subtotals, now read into Chart.subtotals) stand on the axis and
reset it, increases/decreases/totals take accents 1-3 with a matching
legend, and connectors join each bar to the next;
- funnel: centred bars as wide as their value, category labels on the
left and values inside;
- treemap: squarified tiles in proportion to their value, labelled;
- sunburst: the innermost level as a ring with an open centre.
Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>
Waterfall, funnel, treemap, sunburst, histogram, Pareto and box &
whisker charts live in a chartEx part behind an mc:AlternateContent
choice requiring cx1. DeckCraft took the fallback, usually a text box
saying the chart isn't available, so these charts were lost on open
and on save.
The cx1 choice is now taken for chartEx frames and the part is read
into the chart model: categories (innermost level), values, number
format, series name, title, legend and data labels. Unchanged charts
are written back as their chartEx part in a cx1 choice with a plain
chart of the same data as fallback, as PowerPoint writes them; an
edited one is saved as a plain chart. Region maps are not read.

Follow-up to the transition sound picker. The Sound box now lists
[Stop Previous Sound] and six built-in sounds (Chime, Click, Camera,
Whoosh, Drum Roll, Laser) that are synthesised as small WAVs when
chosen, so no sound files ship with the app; the same built-in sound is
embedded once however many slides use it. Loop Until Next Sound repeats
a sound in the show until another slide's sound or Stop Previous Sound.
PPTX reads and writes p:stSnd loop="1" and p:endSnd, keeps the sound's
file name in p:snd/@name, and setting a slide's transition to None no
longer drops its sound.

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.

Transition sounds were read from and written to .pptx but could not be
set and never played. Transitions › Timing gets a Sound box ([No Sound]
or Other Sound…), backed by a new transition.sound command that embeds
an audio file on the selected slides (or removes it with none). In the
slide show the sound plays as its slide comes in and, as in PowerPoint,
keeps playing into the next slide unless that slide has a sound of its
own. Built-in sounds, Stop Previous Sound and Loop Until Next Sound are
still missing; the parity docs say so.

shape.effects gains shadowProps / glowProps / reflectionProps that adjust
the current effect (or add a default one): shadow colour, transparency,
blur, angle and distance; glow colour, transparency and size; reflection
transparency, size, distance and blur. Values are clamped, non-finite ones
ignored. The Effects page of the Format Shape pane exposes them as sliders
and colour pickers.

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.

The Format Shape pane's Line page had only colour, width and dash. It now
has PowerPoint's compound type, cap type, join type, begin/end arrow type
and begin/end arrow size drop-downs, and the Size page has Lock aspect
ratio for the width and height fields. shape.line gains compound,
headSize and tailSize, and changing an arrow's kind keeps its size.

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

Every transition and Effect Option was built in PowerPoint (COM), exported as
video and compared frame by frame with DeckCraft at the same progress
(mean abs diff over 150 variants 35.7 -> 15.0, 0-255).
- anim: transition_frame(kind, option, t, aspect) with measured curves
(smoothstep fades, ease-in-out moves, Cover/Uncover/Pan curves), directions
and option meanings, soft edges as per-corner opacity, 3-D effects as
perspective-projected cards, Dynamic Content moving slide contents over
cross-fading backgrounds (Source::OldBack/NewBack/OldContent/NewContent);
layer_mesh subdivides perspective quads so textures stay straight.
- New options: Page Curl Single, Glitter Hexagons, Shred In/Out, Zoom and
Rotate; PowerPoint-style Effect Options labels.
- render: composite_transition (CPU twin of the show), render_slide_part,
render_transition; deckcraft-cli render-transition FILE --slide N --t T.
- show: per-vertex opacity meshes, slide parts rendered once per transition.
- pptx: PowerPoint's elements and defaults (p:strips diagonal wipes, p14:warp
and p:newsflash for Zoom, p:zoom for Shape In/Out, glitter pattern, shred
rectangle/dir, prstTrans invX per preset, pageCurlSingle, defaults for
randomBar/doors/window/pan/zoom); PowerPoint reopens DeckCraft's files with
the same effects.
- Tests: measured curves, probes of which slide shows where at t, option
coverage, per-frame triangle budget, PowerPoint XML and defaults round trip.

A right click on an unselected shape opened the slide's context menu
(Layout, Reset Slide...) because only the primary button reached the
pointer tool; the shape had to be left-clicked first. The right-button
press now goes through Session::pointer as PointerKind::ContextClick
(`contextclick` on the control channel and MCP) and selects like
PowerPoint before the menu opens: an unselected shape is selected alone
(a text box or placeholder is not put into text editing, nothing is
dragged), a selected shape keeps the selection, multiple selection
included, and empty slide clears it. In the box whose text is being
edited, the caret and text selection stay, and the context menu offers
text items (Paragraph, Bullets, Numbering, Link) next to Cut, Copy and
Paste, which act on the selected text.
- file-format-parity.md: SmartArt row notes the text rectangle; status line and history.
- ROADMAP.md: progress log line. No checklist row changes score (Insert SmartArt stays P), and
the gaps.md SmartArt entry (pre-drawn shapes only) still holds.
