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.
Review: " . .name. . " kept inner dots at the edges; trim spaces and dots
in one pass. docs/cli.md and safe_file_name's comment give the 100 and
200 character limits.
export into a folder replaced every character outside letters, digits,
'-', '_', space and '.' with '_', so a frame called
"Homepage - desktop (live + verbeteringen)" became
"Homepage - desktop _live _ verbeteringen_.png". The app's
file.exportLayers keeps those names and only replaces what file systems
refuse. The CLI now uses the engine's safe_file_name, and docs/cli.md
says which characters are replaced.
Also adds my own entry to contributors/people.toml.
node.create, node.set and the other prop appliers map fill/stroke
"none" (either case) and null to an empty fills/strokes list, as
fills: [] already did (undocumented), so an outline-only shape is one
call - agents write "none" for no paint. KEYS and docs/mcp.md
document it; the error names the accepted forms. fill_none_tests
covers create, set, undo, text and the error.
A variable mode chosen on a layer inside an instance (the icon inside a
Close button, recoloured through an icon colour collection) wasn't an
override group. A full rebuild of the instance starts each layer over
from its main and carries only override groups, so the mode fell back
to the main's. Library import always rebuilds, as do main edits such as
a new auto layout direction, so a modal's recoloured close icon came
into other files in its default colour.
"modes" is now an override group: setting a mode inside an instance
records it, rebuilds carry it, rebasing a nested instance finds it, the
component panel lists it, and resetting it brings back the main's mode.
A top-level instance's own modes stay its own and record no override,
like its resizing.
apply_order gave fillStyle, strokeStyle, effectStyle, gridStyle and
textStyle the rank of plain values, so the JSON map's byte order decided:
fills, strokes, effects, grids, layoutGrids and variationSettings sort
after their link and overrode it (node.set then unlinked the style;
node.create kept a link its values contradicted). Style links now apply
after the values and x/y, just before boundVariables. A deviation set in a
later call still unlinks.
A component set took its name from the first variant's name up to the first '/' or '=',
so variants named "State=Default, Size=Small" made a set called "State". The set now
takes the path before the last '/' ("Button/State=Hover" -> "Button",
"Icons/Arrow/Dir=Up" -> "Icons/Arrow"), keeps a plain name as is ("Button"), and
otherwise gets the next numbered default ("Component 1"), as a new component does.
Duplicate and Alt-drag copied a main component as a second main. Within
its file the copy is now an instance of it (components::copy_in_file,
shared by edit.duplicate and the Alt-drag copy), as Copy then Paste
already was. A variant duplicated in its set stays a new variant.
Launching opens a new empty file, which then has to be closed to get
back to Home. Preferences ▸ "Start on the Home screen"
(`pref.startOnHome {on?}`, off by default) starts the desktop app on Home
instead. Files named on the command line and recovered files still open.

An explicit edit of a bound width, height, opacity, gap, padding, corner
radius, stroke weight, arc or text field reported ok, but normalize wrote
the variable's value straight back. Now the edit sticks and that field's
binding is dropped, as paint edits already do.
- `styles::bound_before` / `detach_edited`: compare each layer-level
bound field's stored value before and after the edit (`bound_field`),
so keys written unchanged keep their bindings and fields moved along
with another (proportions, min/max) lose theirs. A binding the edit
itself made (`boundVariables`) stays. List and component property
bindings are left to their own rules.
- Hooked into node.set, transform.resize, object.opacityKeys, text.style
and `Session::preview` (canvas drags of the selected layers).
