With a fixed 120 ms wait, a page whose full renders take 15–100 ms was held coarse for 120 ms
after a key zoom or a page switch, where before it was refined in the next frame. The wait is
now the last full render's time when that is shorter than `SETTLE_MS`: a wait never costs more
than the render it may save, and on a heavy page (seconds a render) it is 120 ms as before.
Also from review: the test that the wait counts from the preview no longer times a preview
render (a margin of a few milliseconds under load); a sleep between the request and the poll
stands in for the render, with the whole settle as margin. `Inline::in_flight` says that a
preview's wait counts.

Comments become the task queue for an attached or headless MCP client: comment.prompt returns a bounded Markdown brief, the Comments panel gains Copy for AI, and the MCP server exposes fix_comments, watch_comments, figcraft://comments and wait_for_changes. Mutating comment.* commands append to a bounded in-memory event log; the control channel's events.poll long-polls it without the UI thread, and a successful batch commits its events only if the whole batch lands. No model, network dependency, asset or file-format change.
From the review of #1468: a pan or an edit at the new zoom before its full render has run
renders from scratch too, so it shows a preview and restarts the wait instead of running a
blocking full render between it and the next step; once refined, requests at that zoom build
on the kept image and are refined at once. The new test pins both down. The status line of
`docs/gaps.md` now carries the date of the gap 7 entry.

The browser renders on the UI thread. A zoom showed its coarse preview and then, in the very
next frame, ran the full render, so every wheel step of a continuous zoom had a blocking full
render between it and the next: on a heavy page each one took seconds, and the zoom stuttered
for as long as it went on.
The browser's worker (`Inline`) now refines a preview only once no newer request has come for
`SETTLE_MS` (120 ms) after the preview was shown: the zoom has paused. Each wheel step still
shows its preview at once, and the worker asks for a repaint when the wait is over. Pans and
edits have no preview and are refined at once, as before. The desktop has a render thread of
its own and is unchanged. A zoom passing through a scale also no longer spends a full render
there.
The wait counts from the preview being handed over, not from the request: rendering the
preview can itself take longer than the wait (the page is blocked meanwhile, so no newer
request could have come), and counted from the request the full render would follow in the
very next frame, as before.
Measured in Chrome on a synthetic page of 20 images, 60 shadowed rectangles and two
background blurs (a full render takes about 3.7 s, a preview about 250 ms), 20 wheel steps in
and 20 out, 50 ms apart, three runs each: the frame interval's p95 went from 3.7 s to 240 ms,
the frames over 100 ms from 79–80 (one full render per step) to 39–41 (one preview per step),
and the zoom took 10–12 s instead of 141 s. The one full render after the pause still takes as
long as before.

Branches of a file in a live session: create, edit, review, update from
main and merge while the file is in a session. The branch stays with its
author and makes ids in their own client space far above the main file's;
merging is one synced edit and one undo step; peers' edits merge against
the branch's own base and conflicts resolve as offline; a view link still
refuses merging; a branch made outside the session that adds layers is
refused with a reason. Branch history entries for creation and updates
from main. Fuzz and junk tests extended to export settings, guides and the
live case. Docs: gap 17, collaboration parity, ROADMAP, mcp, protocol.
* M8: widgets take text input and a property menu
Plugin API 4 (gap 6). A widget's text layer can be an editable field:
a double-click edits it like any text, and when editing ends the value
(cleaned, at most 1,000 characters) goes into the widget's state under
the field's name and its plugin redraws, as one undo step. A widget can
also carry a property menu of up to 8 actions, toggles and colour
choices, shown in a small bar over it while it's selected.
- widget.setText and widget.menu drive the same paths from scripts,
the CLI and MCP; widget.insert/list also report fields and menu
- descriptions, values and stored menus are validated as untrusted;
an API 3 plugin drawing a field or menu is refused, older hosts
refuse API 4 manifests; no new host imports
- SDK reads the new events; the Counter example gains a label field
and a menu (reset, steps of ten, a colour)
- tests for fields, menus, canvas editing, rollback, forged data and
live sync; junk sweep extended; labels in every command catalog
- docs: plugins, mcp, gaps, target-app-parity, ROADMAP, roadmap
* M8: widget property menu on egui 0.37
Id::new and Ui::id are deprecated in egui 0.37: the widget bar's area uses Id::unique and its buttons' interaction ids come from ui.scope_id().
* M11: a double-click a board object or a widget field takes, in a function of its own (Sonar)
* M12: board templates and tables
Five built-in board templates (retrospective, brainstorm, weekly planner,
flow chart, kanban board) placed as ordinary board objects in one undo step
(board.template, board.templates) from a toolbar picker with pictures, and
board tables made of auto layout frames (board.table, board.tableEdit; up to
50 x 20), typed into with a double-click and edited by row and column from
the bar over the selection. Docs: boards-parity, gap 24, ROADMAP, mcp.
* M12: board templates picker on egui 0.37
Id::new and Ui::id are deprecated in egui 0.37: the templates picker's area uses Id::unique, its buttons' interaction ids come from ui.scope_id(), and its test reads the board bar's area by Id::unique.
* M12: board timer and voting
A countdown everyone on a board sees (board.timer, board.timerState), synced as its end time or the
time left while paused, and voting sessions (board.vote, board.voteResults): votes per person, on
everything, stickies or the selection; clicks vote, your badge takes a vote back; your own votes
show while it runs, everyone's with a ranked list once it ends. Timer and vote sync as document
properties and ballots as one entry per voter; neither is an undo step. A pill at the top right
of the board, new Timer, Pause and Vote icons, labels and strings in every catalog, docs.
* M12: board timer and voting on egui 0.37
Id::new is deprecated in egui 0.37: the timer and voting area and its memory ids use Id::unique.
* M12: board.vote's start and ballot changes in functions of their own (Sonar)
* M12: boards dot grid, re-attaching connector ends, curved connectors
Board pages draw a dot grid in the canvas render, after the page colour
and under the layers (figcraft_render::Dots), thinned out when zoomed out
and coloured from the theme's ink against the page. A selected connector
shows its ends as handles; dragging one onto an object re-attaches it,
onto empty canvas leaves it free (board.reattach, one undo step, also
over MCP). Connectors can be curved, and elbows go around the objects
they join when the short way would cross them.
* M12: boards dot grid: blending a dot in a function of its own (Sonar)
* E21: require release font coverage and stabilize capture deadline tests
* E21: separate capture, IME and field-save regression phases
* M0: correct the migration qualification reference
* M-egui037: document input lifecycle and UI regression contracts
* M0: correct egui 0.37 status docs and stabilize join-code regression

* Prototype player: no clicks reach the prototype behind the link notice
* Selection colors: scopes filter the variable menu; the command binds as variable.bind does
* Style picker: color variables scoped to every selected layer's fill or stroke
* Corner button: named Corner smoothing on polygons and stars
* docs/gaps.md: known gaps from the #1311 review
* cargo fmt
* Style picker: clippy
Polygon and star outlines did not use their corner smoothing: the value
was stored, imported and exported, but `shape_path` drew their corners
as plain circular arcs, and the Design panel showed the Corner
smoothing field only for rectangles and frames. Rounded polygon and
star corners now take smoothing the way rectangle corners do. Each
corner keeps a circular arc over the unsmoothed part of its turn and
eases into both edges, and it starts (1 + smoothing) times the plain
corner's length from the vertex. When a smoothed corner does not fit
in half of its shorter edge, smoothing is reduced first, then the
radius, as for rectangles. The Individual corners button opens the
panel for polygons and stars too, with the Corner smoothing row and no
field per corner.
In Dev Mode the menus, shortcuts, clipboard, canvas and layers panel
refuse design edits, but an image or SVG dropped on the canvas was
still imported. The Pages list still added, renamed, reordered,
duplicated and deleted pages. The Assets panel still placed instances,
swapped them on an Alt-drop, applied styles, changed Hide when
publishing, accepted library updates and added, removed or swapped
libraries.
All of these now go through dev_mode_refuses with the command they
would run, and show its note. A dropped document still opens as a file
of its own, and the drop overlay shows the note instead of "Drop to
import". A click in the Pages list still opens a page, and page rows
take no drags in Dev Mode.
* M6: Dev Mode measurements kept on the canvas, a read-only layers panel
Measurements placed between two layers, along a side or to the layer
around one (devMode.addMeasurement / removeMeasurement / measurements),
stored on the layer they start from (saved, synced, undoable; old files
open without them), drawn in Dev Mode as labelled redlines that follow
the layers and listed, placed and removed in the Inspect tab. In Dev Mode
the layers panel only selects and expands.
* M6: Dev Mode measurements: explicit imports, a measurement row of its own (Sonar)
Board files (File > New board) with sticky notes, shapes with text, connectors that follow what they join (straight or elbow, arrowheads, labels), marker, highlighter and eraser, and stamps; a board toolbar and a contextual bar; the Design panel hidden on boards, Prototype and Dev Mode refused there. Boards are ordinary FigCraft files built from ordinary layers, so saving, undo, export, MCP and live sessions work unchanged. File tabs, recent files and Open files show a pen nib for design files and a note for boards (original icons drawn in code).
Import lines for connected components inside generated layer trees; Compare changes against any saved version; a Dev Mode behaviour suite with an inspect-only canvas (menus, shortcuts, paste and Revert to saved refuse design edits; a drag under way is dropped on entering), Changed in the ready list, statuses only on top-level frames and sections; read-only plugins' panels from the Inspect tab.
With points selected in more than one edited layer the transform box now
wraps them all, in the page's axes since the layers can be turned
differently. Its corners and edges scale them, outside a corner rotates
them and inside drags them; each layer's points are mapped in its own
coordinates and the whole drag is one undo step. A click inside clears
every layer's points.
Vue connected templates keep a string's JS quotes inside bound attributes, so `:title={title}` becomes `:title=""Buy""` rather than a bare identifier; static attributes take plain text. Nested instances no longer lose a boolean `v-if` guard, instance swaps render through `<component :is>`, slot names stay distinct when their idents lowercase alike, slot content CSS reaches the parent stylesheet, and text defaults escape `</script>` in the script block. The five locale catalogs the Vue key rename missed (bn, fi, ka, nl, pl) are updated, and the docs list Leptos/Vue consistently.
Dev Mode generates React, Leptos, SwiftUI and Compose; a Vue project had to translate the HTML
instead. `inspect.code {language: "vue"}` now writes a single-file component: a `<template>`, a
`<script setup>` with `defineProps` and its defaults, and a `<style scoped>`.
A Vue template holds no arbitrary expressions, so what the web targets write as a braced
expression has its own spelling. Text is `{{ prop }}`, and braces in text are escaped; a boolean
property's layer carries `v-if="prop"` rather than a wrapper element; a slot becomes Vue's own
`<slot name="…">` with its fallback content, which takes no prop, and an instance's content in one
is a `<template #name>`. Variants switch on the root's `data-*` attributes, as on the web.
`codeConnect` links a component to its code as a single-file component: a default import, and a
quoted binding, so `:size={size}` gives `:size="Large"` and a component swap passes the component
itself. A value that needs escapes keeps them inside the quotes, where the attribute's own quotes
become `"`.
`inspect.componentCode` kept a second copy of the code-language list, which is how Vue was missed
when `inspect.code` learned it; it now asks `code_connect::language`, the one list, as
`codeConnect` does.
Eleven tests in `vue_codegen_tests` and a `codeConnect` case; the Inspect panel's language picker
picks Vue up from `CodeLang::ALL`, and the language lists in the docs, the Dev Mode hint and its
thirteen catalogs name it.
Brings the progress docs up to date with what landed on 2026-10-17: community batches #727, #728, #733, #735, #736 and #753, plus #729, #745, #746 and #751. Docs only.
A variable width is written only as the same reach on both sides of the path (a
point with unequal sides drew nothing elsewhere). A stroke wider on one side, on a
shape that shows nothing else, is written as a vector filled with the area it
paints, with the stroke itself kept as plugin data that the import puts back.
Bound layer and text fields also name the number of the field they set. Docs: text,
effect and grid styles and symmetric variable widths are checked; non-colour
bindings come across as values.
Variable-width points say each side's reach as a share of the stroke weight (in
pixels they drew far too wide elsewhere). Progress docs: instance sizes, variables
with modes and shared styles in the .fig export, and what was checked by opening
written files in other software.
A file put on a server without the server's key stays its owner's after its
tab closes or the app quits. The app records it with the preferences (server,
id, name, owner token, the owner's links, what others join with; at most 200;
validated when read back) and never shows the token: not in command results,
ui.inspect, logs or debug output.
- Home > Online lists your online files: open one as its owner (a new tab, or
its tab comes to the front), start and stop sharing, copy the code or link,
rename on the server, remove from the server (confirmed), forget here. One
request per server when the section opens; offline and gone states.
- collab.files, collab.openFile, collab.forgetFile; collab.manageFile takes
its server and token from the record and gains share / unshare.
- Server: Admin owned (a compatible addition within protocol version 2) says
what became of the files a list of owner tokens owns. Older servers leave
the list as recorded.
- Tabs mark files in a live session (shared, or open only to you); toasts
about a file that isn't in front name it; after a crash a recorded file
reopens from its server as its owner.
- Draft catalogs (de, fr, ja, ko, pt-BR, zh-Hans) translate the 71 strings
and 5 command labels they lacked and the new ones; es and es-419 follow.
- Docs: collab-protocol, server, mcp, control-protocol, parity pages, gaps,
ROADMAP.
- Scrubbing the label: a step a point, x10 with Shift, x0.1 with Alt, each
stretch at its own rate, counted from the press; on past the screen edge
where the platform reports the mouse's motion.
- Arrow keys: pixel fields by the nudge preferences (Shift: the big nudge),
other fields by their own step and ten of it; also with the keyboard on
the field; the stepped value stays selected.
- Typing: brackets and units in arithmetic; +10, *2, /4 and (outside
percentage fields) 50% are relative to the value.
- A field left as it was commits nothing (no undo step, no rounded display
written back); Tab commits and moves on; Escape restores.
- Mixed values: a relative edit or an arrow key goes to each layer from its
own value in one undo step (X, Y, W, H, rotation, opacity, corner radius,
stroke weight).
- Fields take keys in a window that isn't in front (control channel).
- Docs for the everyday editing partials: ui-parity rows, ROADMAP,
target-app-parity, gaps, mcp, control protocol, the parity checklist
(211/211).
The Share popover is one flow: Online (the file is published to the server in
Preferences and the server names its links with short codes) or Local network
(the app hosts; the code carries its address and the session's secret), one
Start sharing button, the code large with Copy code and Copy link, who is here,
can edit / can view, and Stop sharing. Join with a code is one field in the
popover, on the home screen and in the Join dialog, for a code of either kind
or an invite link.
Protocol (within version 2, new variants last): Resolve / Resolved and Admin
code. The server keeps a stretched hash and the wrapped token, never the code,
and limits wrong codes per address (with a lockout) and for everyone. Older
servers leave the links in place of a code; older apps join by link.
collab.share, collab.join {code}, code and share in collab.peers; the server
preference defaults to the built-in server and can be reset or turned off.
Measured against documents re-saved by other software. A line's height is rounded to whole
pixels (halves up) with the baseline keeping its fraction inside it; a glyph's advance and its
kerning are each rounded to 1/1024 em before scaling; a line's width and wrapping leave out the
letter spacing after its last visible glyph. Rule tests on built-in fonts, a local-only check over
such documents, and three behaviour expectations updated to the new rules.
