Adds wordcraft_render::icon_lib, 61 monochrome icons in ten categories
(Arrows, Communication, Office, People, Nature, Weather, Shapes, Symbols,
Technology, Transport). They are original WordCraft artwork: simple
geometric line drawings designed on a 24x24 grid as path data in code, with
no icon files and nothing copied from another icon set.
insert.icon {"id", "color"?, "size"?} renders the chosen icon with vello_cpu
to a transparent PNG at about 300 ppi and inserts it at the caret through the
ordinary picture path, so it saves to .docx and every other format. Without
an id it lists the library (narrowed by query and category) and asks the
front end for the picker. picture.iconColor repaints a one-colour picture
in a new colour and keeps its transparency.
Insert > Illustrations > Icons opens a dialog with a search box, category
chips and a grid of icons drawn live by the egui painter from the same path
data; Insert or a double click places the selection. Picture Format > Adjust
gains an Icon Color menu. New strings are translated in every catalog.
Catalog parity 393/434 -> 394/434 (90.8%).

UI parity with Microsoft Word
Last reviewed: 2026-10-10 · Last updated: 2026-10-11 · Change: trivial (Customize Ribbon and the Quick Access Toolbar, #379; previously: major, first version; ribbon, dialogs, shortcuts and on-canvas interaction measured from
crates/ui-eguiand the command registry) · Target: Microsoft Word (Microsoft 365) for Mac 16.113.4
How WordCraft looks and feels next to Word: ribbon, dialogs, panes, keyboard, mouse and touch.
Typing behaviour has its own checklist (typing-parity.md). All assets are our
own (AGENTS.md: no Microsoft iconography, ever).
Dimension: ~65% (estimated), 65–100 h to full (the sum of the rows below; dialog depth is counted here, not under features).
