Text sized its per-vertex color array with getTotalVertices(), which
assumed one quad per non-space character. Shaped text does not follow
that rule (clusters, ligatures, marks, zero-sized glyphs and fallback
fonts change the glyph count), so the color array could be shorter than
the geometry. The draw then read past the end of the array for the last,
visually rightmost glyphs: they disappeared or showed up as stray glyphs
in mixed Latin/Hebrew/Arabic strings.
- Size fill and outline colors from the generated geometry and rebuild
them whenever the vertex counts change. Remove getTotalVertices().
- Never read past the color array in draw(), and draw the outline pass
with its own vertex count instead of the fill count.
- Share one shaped glyph walker (forEachShapedGlyphQuad) between both
setFillColor() overloads and keep it in sync with
ensureGeometryUpdate(): same layout parameters and the same fill
visibility test. The per-character overload advanced its vertex index
only when a color was present, which misaligned the remaining colors.
TextLayout snapped complex-script glyph positions to whole pixels, but
simple-script glyphs used the pen position as-is. After a Hebrew or
Arabic run the pen is fractional (HarfBuzz 26.6 advances), so the Latin
glyphs that followed were drawn at sub-pixel positions and blurred. Round
simple-script positions as well. Pure Latin text is unchanged.
Caret mapping:
- Text::findCharacterPos() and findCharacterFromPos() now use the text's
own base direction instead of TextDirection::Unspecified, so caret
positions and hit testing agree with rendering.
- In a right-to-left paragraph, place the end-of-text caret at the left
end of the last line instead of after the rightmost glyph.
Add TextLayout::getFirstStrongDirection(), which returns the direction of
the first strong bidi character (UAX #9 P2/P3), for upcoming
right-to-left layout support.
Update the textedit Arabic and Hebrew reference images: only punctuation
that follows RTL runs moves, now aligned to whole pixels.
- Add CalendarDate, TimeOfDay, LocalDateTime and DateRange with Gregorian
arithmetic, locale-aware formatting/parsing, ISO serialization and Unix
timestamp conversions with explicit UTC offsets.
- Add UIDateTimeEdit, UIDatePicker, UITimePicker, UIDateTimePicker and
standalone UICalendar, with XML/CSS registration and data binding.
- Support segmented keyboard editing, numeric entry, ISO paste, configurable
steps, bounds, empty values and independent seconds/milliseconds display.
Default time display to hours and minutes while preserving stored precision.
- Add day/month/year calendar navigation and a combined date-time popup with
time steppers, live configuration updates and scoped event connections.
- Add Breeze and fallback theme styles with CSS-defined SVG icons, dp sizing,
font-aware calendar dimensions and muted read-only/disabled controls.
- Map HTML date, time and datetime-local inputs to native controls with strict
value sanitization, min/max/step/required/readonly/disabled handling,
constraint validation and normalized form serialization.
- Provide private light HTML control defaults and intrinsic temporal sizing;
prevent author CSS from styling anonymous implementation parts.
- Share popup placement and visibility helpers across pickers, dropdowns and
trigger/cursor menus while retaining cascading-menu placement rules.
- Fix fractional grid wrapping and input cursor bubbling over child buttons;
notify and refresh styles when editing permission changes.
- Reduce CSS registration allocations with string_view parameters and
heterogeneous name lookup; inline frequently used node and CSS getters.
- Align CodeEditor default font sizing with text widgets without overriding
application preferences.
- Add HTML form margin defaults and update the affected rendering baseline.
- Upgrade Windows ecode nightly builds to Ubuntu 24.04 and newer MinGW.
- Add picker documentation, an example and regression coverage for date math,
locales, editing, popup placement/lifetime, HTML controls and pixel density
- Compensate for the difference between font ascent used by RichText layout
and the character-size baseline used by Text rendering. Cache the natural
baseline in each text span while preserving background and selection boxes.
- Add pixel-level coverage for proportional and monospace fonts at matching
and different sizes, with default and explicit line heights. Refresh the
affected rendering reference images.
- Keep diff view select buttons last in the child list so lazily created
image viewers cannot intercept their clicks.
- Display source images and generated diffs at native pixel dimensions,
independent of UI density, scaling down only to fit the viewport. Avoid
rounding twice at fractional densities.
- Add regression coverage for mode switching and sizing at densities
1, 1.5, and 2. Use portable temporary paths.
- Lazily compute document line hashes, avoid redundant multiline insertion
walks, and defer longest-line measurement for large or exceptionally long
text changes.
- Cache default code editor keybindings, reserve common command storage, and
create UIDiffView image viewers only when an image diff requires them.
- Keep cached screen positions coherent when descendants are queried before
dirty ancestors, and add regression coverage for ancestor movement.
- Relocate font-rendering golden images into the unit-test asset directory
and resolve image fixtures independently of the current working directory.
- Fix spurious status entries for files moved between directories. Preserve the suffix after Git's abbreviated brace notation when parsing renamed paths from numstat output. This prevents directory moves such as `bin/{ => unit_tests}/assets/...` from producing truncated synthetic untracked entries like `unit_tests`. Add regression coverage for staged files moved into a different directory.
- Git Plugin now remembers between sessions the uncommited commit message.
Implement spec-oriented paint phases for normal flow, floats, and
positioned descendants, including atomic stacking groups and applicable
z-index handling for flex and grid items.
Share cached ordering between drawing and hit testing, propagate
invalidation across stacking scopes, and preserve ancestor transforms
and clipping for promoted descendants.
Add regression coverage for paint order, hit testing, reparenting,
clipping, flex ordering, and the old Reddit layout. Document the
supported stacking model and remove the completed implementation plan.
Introduce contiguous PropertyId and ShorthandId enums backed by name-to-ID maps, replacing hash-valued property identifiers throughout the style system.
Replace PropertyIdSet's unordered set with a fixed-size bitset, eliminating heap allocations during style state changes while providing deterministic ascending iteration.
Keep name hashes for stylesheet storage and unknown or custom properties, while using dense typed IDs for registered-property lookup and dispatch.
Preserve property aliases and the public Checked compatibility identifier.
Add transaction-end reconciliation for interdependent image sizing properties, deferring percentage-based calculations until their containing block is resolved.
Keep formatting-context-owned sizes intact for table cells and inline content.
Add validation and tests for dense built-in registration, custom IDs, aliases, bitset operations, allocation-free storage, unknown properties, property application order, and image sizing regressions.
Snap dotted and dashed border geometry to physical pixels so centered
patterns cannot begin on ambiguous half-pixel coordinates. This makes
rectangular dot placement deterministic across llvmpipe and macOS GPU
drivers.
Update the old Reddit golden image to use the snapped dot phase.
Optimize compile-time header dependencies
- Extract lightweight singleton declarations.
- Remove unnecessary core.hpp, stream, pack, and container includes.
- Add explicit direct dependencies across system, network, graphics, and syntax headers.
- Forward-declare stream and pack types where possible.
- Normalize selected network headers to LF.
- implement per-side CSS border styles and patterned rendering
- preserve rectangular rasterization for thin dotted borders
- separate CSS and native-widget border defaults
- correct inline atomic-box and vertical-align baseline layout
- collapse adjacent block margins in rich-text flow
- preserve forced line breaks and formatting margins
- size HTML text inputs from font ascent and descent
- expose replaced-control text baselines to inline layout
- enforce single-owner painting for inline backgrounds and borders
- enable and update the old Reddit visual regression golden
- add generic layout, border, and form-control regression tests
- document spec-first HTML work and project build conventions
The float-aware rich-text layout was resetting curX for every block formatting context, including inline-blocks. That made consecutive action buttons overlap. The reset is now limited to block-level BFCs;
inline-blocks retain normal cursor advancement.
Added:
- An always-on deferred CSS regression covering inline anchors, inline-block siblings, and float exclusions.
- Strict action-row and title/domain ordering checks in the opt-in Reddit visual smoke test.
- A small CSS fixture reproducing Reddit’s layout rules.
Track percentage-based margins in UIHTMLWidget and re-resolve them when
the containing parent acquires its final size. This prevents margins
computed against an initial zero-width container from remaining stale
until the viewport is resized.
Add regressions covering percentage margin recomputation and the SS64
footer layout after a deferred stylesheet is loaded.
Reserve stylesheet source positions when link elements are encountered
instead of assigning them when asynchronous loading completes.
Track the stylesheet and rule ordinals explicitly so deferred external
styles retain their document order relative to later inline styles.
Preserve this ordering when extracting marked stylesheet rules.
Add an SS64 regression test covering heading and button styles after a
deferred stylesheet finishes loading.
Resolve percentage dimensions for HTML-backed widgets after their containing
block has a definite size. Apply the resolution during rich-text, flex, and
grid layout without triggering broad layout invalidation.
Rasterize SVGs using their resolved dimensions when intrinsic width or height
attributes are missing or percentage-based.
Add regression coverage for percentage-sized SVGs and the SS64 navigation
buttons and search icon.
Treat UIHTMLInput as the stable HTML/CSS host while keeping its native
control as an anonymous implementation detail.
Prevent author CSS from matching internal control widgets, avoiding
duplicated backgrounds and other styles. Keep valid input types such as
email intact for attribute selectors while falling back to compatible
native implementations.
Synchronize the internal control with the host content box after layout,
including flex sizing, and preserve intrinsic measurement for size and
font changes. Preserve input state across dynamic type changes and make
hidden transitions reversible.
Also fix border-radius calculations and add regressions for CSS ownership,
anonymous widget isolation, dynamic type changes, input sizing, and the
Causality newsletter form.
- parse slash-separated background position and size without requiring whitespace
- recognize custom-property background images following an explicit size
- resolve root body and html minimum heights against the layout viewport
- avoid expanding semantic document boxes to the scrollable content extent
- handle auto margins and percentage offsets correctly for absolute positioning
- add DuckDuckGo layout and background shorthand regression tests
- document the Xvfb limitation with multisampled OpenGL contexts
Resolve CSS variable values at the points where properties are applied,
inherited, propagated, and used to seed transitions. This prevents raw
var() values from leaking into widget state or transition start/end
values when style attributes, inherited properties, or state-dependent
rules are involved.
Also refresh style definitions when widgets load so selector-dependent
rules are evaluated with the final widget context, and add regression
coverage for inline style vars, inherited vars, parent-state child rules,
tab close opacity, and foreground tint transitions.
Preserve shrink-to-fit widths for floated HTML boxes whose CSS width is
auto, instead of letting their own block layout expand them back to the
containing block width. This matches the CSS float model and fixes floated
list-item menus where hover boxes were much wider than their content.
Also separate RichText visual font metrics from CSS line-box metrics. Text
runs now keep native font height for drawing while line layout still uses
CSS line-height, allowing the expected half-leading offset for vertically
centered text in block anchors.
