Format Shape's Pattern fill set 25 % in accent 1 on background 1 and
offered no way to change it, and Format Background listed 10 of the 54
presets by their XML names. Both panes now show the same editor: a
gallery of the 54 DrawingML presets drawn in the fill's own colors,
each named in words, and Foreground and Background color menus.
With a pattern fill, Format Shape no longer shows the solid-fill Color
button, which replaced the pattern with a solid fill, or the
Transparency slider, which did not change a pattern. The renderer
exports the preset list and tiles for the gallery to draw.
The segment menu in Edit Points offered only Straight Segment and Curved
Segment. It now also has Add Point, which adds a point where the right
click was, Delete Segment, which removes the segment from a closed outline
so that the outline opens there (grayed out on an open outline), and Open
Path, which opens the outline at the segment's start point (Close Path on
an open outline).
`shape.deleteSegment` does the deletion for the CLI and MCP.
The place on a segment that a click picks was found only in steps of 1/32
of the segment, so Add Point and Ctrl-click could add the point as far
as 1/64 of a straight segment's length from the pointer. It is now narrowed
down after that first pass.
Adding or deleting a point now forgets a point type remembered for handle
drags, as opening and closing the outline already did. `shape.addPoint` on
the first point of an open outline no longer splits the closing edge of
another outline later in the same path.
Esc during a vertex or handle drag in Edit Points used to leave Edit
Points while the drag went on: the point kept following the pointer and
the release added an undo step. Esc now ends the drag and puts the shape
back as it was at the press, with no undo step, and Edit Points stays on.
Esc without a drag still leaves Edit Points.
A handle drag in Edit Points ignored the modifier keys: the point kept
the type it had. In PowerPoint, Shift, Ctrl or Alt held during the drag
sets the point's type.
Shift held while dragging a point's handle now makes it a smooth point.
Ctrl (Cmd on the Mac) makes it a straight point, and Alt (Option) makes
it a corner point. The handle drag passes that type to shape.moveHandle,
and the point keeps it for the next drag without a modifier, as after
Smooth Point, Straight Point or Corner Point in the right-click menu.
Home > Columns offered 1, 2 or 3 columns, always 18 pt apart, and Format
Shape > Text Box had the same three buttons. The spacing could not be
seen or changed, and picking a number reset it.
Home > Columns > More Columns... and a Columns... button in Format Shape
> Text Box now open a Columns dialog with Number (1 to 16) and Spacing in
inches, filled in from the text box. OK applies both in one undo step.
A Spacing left as shown keeps the text box's exact value.
format.columns with no fields opens the dialog. A key left out keeps the
text box's own value instead of resetting it to 1 column or 0 pt, and a
count that is not a whole number from 1 to 16, or a spacing that is not
a number, is an error. Before, an out-of-range count was clamped, a
count that was not a whole number meant 1 column, and a spacing that
was not a number meant 0 pt.
While the caret is in a table cell, a drag into another cell of the
table now selects the cells between them. The range takes in every
merged cell it touches, and the canvas shades the selected cells.
Moving back into the first cell returns to a text selection there.
Shift+arrow moves the cell the range was extended to, and the cell it
started from stays.
With a range selected, run and paragraph formatting apply to those
cells only. Delete clears their text and keeps the cells and the table,
and Copy and Cut take their text, with a tab between cells and a line
per row. Shading, Borders, Cell Margins and Align take in the merged
cells the range touches. A press in the table starts again in the cell
under the pointer.
ROADMAP.md: union of log rows. docs/animation-parity.md: main's header; the by-paragraph row from the PR, the triggers row from main; both revision rows.
A paragraph that starts with *, -, --, >, <>, 1., 1), I., i., A., a.
or a) followed by a space or tab now becomes a bulleted or numbered
list in that style through format.bullets or format.numbering, and the
typed lead and space are removed. The keystroke is one undo step.
Backspace right after the change puts the typed text and the
paragraph's formatting back.
Tools ▸ AutoCorrect has "Automatic bulleted and numbered lists" to turn
it off, and text.autocorrect takes and reports it as lists.
Grouping a group again and again had no limit, but a .deckcraft saved
with 39 or more nested groups could not be opened again (the JSON
reader's recursion limit), and past 64 levels shape walks such as
format.languageAll stop. arrange.group now refuses to nest past 32,
the depth the PPTX reader reads and the renderer draws, and leaves the
slide unchanged. The test builds the deepest allowed deck (a table at
the bottom) and checks it saves and reopens.
