* Draw Table and Eraser: draw tables and split or merge cells with a pen (#303) Insert › Tables › Draw Table and Table Layout › Draw › Draw Table / Eraser. table.draw takes a pen stroke in page points: a rectangle outside a table inserts a one-cell table of that size at the paragraph under its start; a straight vertical or horizontal line inside a table splits the cells it crosses (new grid column or row; untouched cells span it). table.eraser merges the two cells beside the border nearest a point. Each stroke is one undo step. In the app the buttons toggle pen and eraser modes with a live preview, a crosshair with the tool's icon, and Esc to stop; canvas clicks don't move the caret while a tool is on. Splitting through part of a vertically merged cell and erasing beside one are refused with a clear error. Catalog 384/430 -> 387/430. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * Draw tab: pen, pencil and highlighter ink, stroke eraser and Hide Ink (#307) Ink strokes are floating freeform shapes: a new Freeform geometry (paths in shape-local coordinates, opacity, and the pen that drew it) on InlineObject::Shape with ShapeKind::Freeform. draw.stroke inserts one anchored to the paragraph under the first point (one undo step; points capped per stroke, strokes capped per page, NaN dropped); draw.erase / draw.eraser with a point deletes the stroke under it; draw.pen, draw.pencil, draw.highlighter, draw.eraser and draw.select set the Draw tab's tool in the session view state; review.hideInk toggles showing ink on screen. The canvas draws a live stroke while a pen is dragged and commits it on release; the eraser deletes strokes it passes over (one undo step per drag); Esc or Select goes back to selecting. Draw tab buttons show the tool in use, with colour and thickness menus; Review gets an Ink group with Hide Ink. Ink renders with round caps and joins on screen and in PDF; highlighters are translucent and behind the text. DOCX writes freeforms as wps:wsp with a:custGeom (moveTo/lnTo) in a wp:anchor and reads them back, along with simple custom-geometry freeforms from other files. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * #315 review fixes: eraser undo test, sanitized tap dots, custGeom path cap, ink docs - draw.eraser with a point erases through draw.erase: test that it is one undo step (undo/redo) and marks the document dirty. - Render and PDF: a single-point stroke's dot is drawn at the sanitized point, not the raw first one. - DOCX custGeom reading stops once MAX_PATHS paths (subpaths included) are collected, across a:path elements. - docs/file-format-parity.md: ink is saved as custom geometry, not InkML, so Word shows it as a freeform. - widgets test: theme::apply takes an Appearance (#317).

# WordCraft roadmap: milestones and what's next
|
||
|
||
> **Last reviewed:** 2026-10-10 · **Last updated:** 2026-10-10 · **Change:** trivial (M5: Draw Table and Eraser landed, #303; previously minor: beta distance restated: ~15 points, ~150–230 h; previously: alpha gate checked: six core workflows pass; previously major: milestones moved here from ROADMAP.md; Current focus set from the re-measured gaps) · **Target:** Microsoft Word (Microsoft 365) for Mac 16.113.4
|
||
|
||
Forward-looking plan. The summary is [`ROADMAP.md`](../ROADMAP.md); the ranked work list is
|
||
[`gaps.md`](gaps.md); the numbers are in [`target-app-parity.md`](target-app-parity.md). Hours are
|
||
Opus 5.5 agent wall-clock.
|
||
|
||
## Current focus (toward beta, ~150–230 h)
|
||
|
||
1. **Merge or close the ~45 open PRs** before starting overlapping work: many close catalog gaps
|
||
(Clipboard pane #264, Manage Styles #270, Group #267), fix field bugs (Hebrew RTL #20, IME
|
||
fixes #155–#164) or add languages (de, nb, nn, he). Owner review needed.
|
||
2. **DOCX real-world corpus** (gap #1, 30–50 h): collect openly licensed real-world .docx files,
|
||
open/render/round-trip them, compare with Word locally, fix what breaks.
|
||
3. **Preserve what we can't render** (gap #2, 10–15 h): charts, SmartArt, OLE, ink, group shapes
|
||
survive a round trip and show their fallback pictures.
|
||
4. **Stability sweep** (gap #3, 20–30 h): the open crash, hang and write-failure issues, plus an
|
||
autosave/recovery soak test.
|
||
5. **Pagination fidelity** (gap #4, 30–50 h): column balancing, footnote continuation, compat
|
||
options, a local page-by-page comparison harness; an owner decision on an Aptos-metric font.
|
||
6. **Formatting revisions and content controls** (gap #5, 12–18 h), **native printing** (gap #6,
|
||
6–10 h), **dialog depth** (gap #7, 20–30 h).
|
||
|
||
## Alpha gate (core workflows)
|
||
|
||
The core-workflow gate from the craftrules progress-docs standard: what a typical Word user does
|
||
every day, checked end to end on the main platform (macOS desktop), including save and reopen.
|
||
"Partial" here means rough but not blocking: the workflow completes.
|
||
|
||
| Core workflow | Works end to end? | Evidence | Hours to pass |
|
||
|---|---|---|---|
|
||
| Write and format a document: type, fonts, paragraph formatting, styles, lists, undo, find/replace; save as .docx and reopen | yes | 422 commands, typing parity pinned by `tests_typing.rs`, DOCX round-trip tests (`crates/docx/tests/roundtrip.rs`) | 0 |
|
||
| Open a .docx someone sent, edit it, send back a .docx Word opens | partial (not blocking) | Word opens our files; typical text/table/picture documents work; never tested on a real-world corpus; charts, SmartArt and OLE dropped silently, formatting revisions lost (gaps #1, #2, #5) | 0 (beta work: 50–80) |
|
||
| Build a structured document: tables, pictures, headers/footers, page numbers, sections, columns | yes | Tables with row splitting and floating tables (#137), floating pictures (#136), first/odd/even headers; columns don't balance (gap #4) | 0 |
|
||
| Review with others: comments, track changes, accept/reject, compare | yes | Margin balloons, tracked insert/delete incl. paragraph marks (#125, #244), compare; formatting revisions missing (#41) | 0 |
|
||
| References for reports and papers: TOC, footnotes, citations and bibliography, captions | yes | Updatable TOC field (#52), notes, APA/MLA/Chicago/IEEE, Zotero (#189); long footnotes don't continue (gap #4) | 0 |
|
||
| Share or print: export PDF, print | partial (not blocking) | PDF export solid (krilla); desktop printing goes through a PDF, no native print dialog (gap #6) | 0 (beta work: 6–10) |
|
||
|
||
**Result: passes.** Every core workflow completes on macOS and the work saves and reopens; the
|
||
partial rows are fidelity gaps (beta work), not broken workflows. WordCraft stays **alpha**.
|
||
|
