Paste style wrote the copied fields straight onto the element, although a
pasted look is meant to be the style operation the assistant sends. It now
runs the engine's own restyle (bookElementStyled): a colour or face pasted by
hand takes the element off the theme, so the next theme applied no longer
brings the old colour back; a plain fill replaces the paint of the shape it
lands on instead of staying hidden under it; and a line takes another line's
look without its points, which are its course, not its look.
A background picked by hand in the inspector kept the page's link to the
theme, so the next theme applied set the page back to the theme's colour. The
picker and the background operation now paint through one helper that takes
the link away (withSpreadPaintByHand). Giving one page's background to every
page carries that page's link along, or takes the others' away when it was
painted by hand.
A built-in layout, a book's own layout and laying a page out again from its
entry ignored locks in the Studio: a locked shape was dropped and a locked
photo poured into a slot unlocked, while the assistant's layout operation left
both where they were. All four now lay a page out around its locked elements
through one function (layoutAroundLocks), which the engine's layout operation
uses too.
Fill page and fill spread kept the photo in its group, so the background
picture was selected and dragged with its caption and listed under the group
at the front. It leaves its group as the engine's fill does, and a group left
with one member goes.
restore_book_layout took any layout the caller sent, so a layout naming a
photo of another journey was kept, and laying a page out on it put that photo
into this book while place_photo refused the same id. The layout is now held
to the rule a page restore states: every photo it names, in a frame, on a map
marker or in the letters of a text, is in the gallery or on a page of the book
already, or the call is refused with photo_not_in_gallery.
restore_book_page and the design apply read the photos of a page in one place
now (book-photo-refs.ts), which counts the photo a text is filled with. A page
put back with letters filled with a photo from outside the gallery is refused
as a frame of it would be, and a designed page whose letter fill photo left
the gallery since is skipped as photo_gone; on a new book's cover the letters
keep their colour instead, as its frame is emptied.
A saved layout keeps no photo of the page it was taken from in its letters, as
it keeps none in its frames, so laying another page out on it no longer
carries that photo along. A layout kept before this fills such letters with
the first photo of the page it is laid on, or leaves them in their colour.
The style operation checks a letter fill photo only when the change sets the
fill, so a title whose photo left the gallery can still be resized or
recoloured, as the text operation already allowed.
- The element, spread, document, page operation and card unions carry a
name of their own, so the declarations of every schema that holds them
refer to them instead of spelling them out again. The shared declarations
shrink from 9 to 5.5 MB and the server's typecheck from 4.4 to 2.9 GB, so
the build fits the image's 4 GB again.
- edit_book_page and revise_book_design take add by what the element is,
with an id of its own; its look follows with style by that id in the same
call, every look field described once. A change an assistant card kept
with its look on add still reads and runs.
- restore_book_page states what every element has once, then each kind's
own fields and the type the five travel kinds share, without defaults; the
page is read as a spread again before it goes back.
- The theme links are explained once in the page edit's description, and
style points a text's face, a shape's paint and outline and a photo's crop
look at their one full description.
- The lockup roles live in a module of their own, so the operation schemas
no longer import the lockup engine, whose cycle left the operations unset
in the shared tests.
- The theme switches no longer fall through a comment, the newer document
test follows the current revision, the line inspector names its stroke
keys, a text's anchor reads no physical side, two shapes record the
proportions they are drawn at, and the photo look and line tests follow
the slider and the folded ornaments.
- A text can be cased (capitals, lower case, small caps), placed at the top,
middle or foot of its frame, outlined, given a hard shadow or a marker band,
bent on an arc or round a circle, filled with a gallery photo or left
hollow, and shrunk to fit its frame. Every effect prints as vector: copies
and strokes for HTML type, textPath and a clip over an <image> for SVG.
- Fitting is solved when the text is edited, in the Studio and in the edit
engine, and stored; the chosen size is kept as the ceiling.
- Text sizes reach 400 pt and tracking 1.5 em.
- The Elements panel opens on a Text tab: the plain styles and 24 lockups
(titles, badges and stamps, chapter marks, quotes, captions, places), each
drawn with the book's own title and placed as one group.
- The assistant sets every effect through style and add, places a lockup with
add_lockup, reads the effects in describe_book_page and gets two new
findings (curve_overflow, effect_heavy) beside photo-fill and band checks.
- Book format revision 6.
- Fifty more shapes: arches, paper cut-outs (leaves, coral, weed, organic
circles, a wonky star and sun), stamps, a postmark, a rosette, tags and
ticket stubs, sunbursts, ribbons and bands, speech bubbles, drawn arrows,
hearts, stars, photo frames and ornaments (scroll, laurel, fleuron, corner).
The broad ones are photo frames too, and each tile is drawn at its shape's
own proportions, which a new shape is also placed at.
- A cut edge on rectangles, circles, arches and the other broad shapes, painted
or not, and on a photo's cut: zigzag, scallop, a postage stamp's perforation,
wavy, torn and deckle, with a depth in millimetres. Cut in millimetres, so
holes stay round on a wide frame.
- A line element: two to 32 points dragged on the canvas (a handle pulled from
the middle adds one, a double-click removes it), straight or curved, solid,
dashed or dotted, a wave or a zigzag, a hand-drawn wobble, a head on either
end and an ornament in the middle. A shelf of lines and dividers places them.
- The assistant reaches all of it: add and style take the line (its points on
the spread in mm) and the edges, describe_book_page says them, and two new
findings say when a line is too thin to print and when an edge is set on a
shape that takes none. A photo's mask is checked against the shape set
rather than listed again, which keeps the page edit's schema smaller.
- BOOK_SCHEMA_REV goes to 6.
Photos get a look beyond crop, mask and frame style, in Studio and for the
assistant alike:
- border (width and colour, following the mask or the corner radius), a hard
offset shadow and a die-cut cutout edge, all flat vector shapes in print
- zoom 1 to 4 about the focal point and a left to right mirror
- brightness, contrast, saturation and warmth, and a duotone; these are
filters, labelled raster in print in the inspector
- the print resolution of the selected photo in the inspector, with a warning
under 200 dpi, measured from the original
PhotoView moves out of SpreadView into its own file and uses per instance
SVG ids, so a spread drawn twice keeps its clips and filters apart. The style
operation takes the look, describe-spread lists it, the dpi and crop findings
account for zoom and mirror, and a new raster_effect finding notes filters on
a large photo. BOOK_SCHEMA_REV goes to 6.
Elements can be grouped on a page and picked, moved, resized, aligned and
restacked as one. A layers panel lists the page front to back with lock,
visibility, rename and drag to restack. The sheet gains marquee selection,
arrow-key nudge, one box that resizes a multi-selection with Shift holding
the proportions, and the design-tool shortcuts. The inspector lines a
selection up and spaces it out, and copies and pastes a style.
The assistant gets the same through the group, ungroup, name and hide
operations, and describe_book_page lists the groups. The format gains the
optional group, name and hidden fields and a spread's group names, so
BOOK_SCHEMA_REV goes to 2.
A new element kind, sticker, draws layered vector illustrations from a library in twelve themes, behind its own entry point @trek/shared/stickers. Studio gets a Stickers rail section (themes, localized search, recently used, click or drag to place) and an inspector for colour slots, mirroring, turning and opacity. The assistant gets list_book_assets, add and style of stickers in edit_book_page, stickers in describe_book_page and an overlap warning for a sticker over words. BOOK_SCHEMA_REV goes to 2.
- A shape and a page take a paint: one colour with its own alpha, a linear or
radial gradient of two to six stops, or one of twelve patterns (checks,
gingham, stripes, pinstripes, dots, polka dots, zigzag, waves, grid, scales,
sunburst, confetti). fill, gradient and background keep the colour that
stands for the paint, so an older reader still draws something close, and a
plain colour or the old cover fade is stored in the old fields alone.
- Gradients render as SVG in user space with ids per mounted copy, so the two
halves of a spread in page mode never share a defs id; patterns are drawn
out as geometry clipped to the outline and capped at 2000 primitives.
- The new paint picker has none, solid, gradient and pattern tabs, a stop bar
to click, drag and pull stops off, an angle dial, a radial centre pad and
pattern tiles drawn by the page's own generator.
- Every swatch row gains the book's own colours, colours read from the
page's photos, recent colours and, where it applies, an opacity slider.
- With nothing selected the inspector sets the page background, gives it to
every page of its kind, and lays a photo under the whole page.
- The assistant's background operation takes a paint as well as a colour,
style and add set a shape's paint, and describe_book_page reads both.
- BOOK_SCHEMA_REV goes to 2.
The book catalogue grows from 7 families to 34, all self-hosted through
@fontsource under the SIL OFL 1.1 or the Apache License 2.0: condensed and
poster faces, heavy retro display, elegant display serifs, Montserrat, twelve
scripts and DM Mono. Weights run from 100 to 900, each family offering only
the weights it ships, and the serifs gain real italics.
The catalogue lives in @trek/shared (book-fonts.data.ts) with each family's
roles (display, heading, body, script, mono), weights, italics and letter
width, so the Studio, the findings, the design engine and the assistant read
one list. Page operations and the design engine set a weight a family lacks
at its nearest one, describe_book_page names the role and the weight, and
font_mix no longer counts scripts and mono faces, warning above three.
The Studio gets StudioFontPicker: the current family set in itself, a
searchable list grouped by kind with every family in its own face and the
book's own families first, and a weight slider over the weights the family
has. Faces load only when used; the assistant's page snapshot embeds only the
faces a page draws, the service worker installs only the latin files of the
original seven families, and the faces of an opened book are cached for
offline use. BOOK_SCHEMA_REV goes to 2.
The day word of every language now says where the number goes ("DAY {day}",
"{day}日目", "第{day}天", "{day}. GÜN"), and one helper builds the mark for the
engine, the auto layout, a template and the Travel panel, so Japanese,
Korean and Chinese no longer read "日目 3". A word stored without the
placeholder is followed by the number as before. The panel's own day word is
gone with its only reader.
A country mark carries the name as its words beside the outline and a flag
mark sets it small beside the flag, the same for the engine's value, the
panel's tile, the assistant's add and a template's country mark; a flag in a
template keeps the place its name was drawn in. A flag or country mark asked
for by its own code is named after that country without the journey having
to name one.
A burst of four or more photos within a quarter of an hour becomes one grid,
no beat runs three times in a row, and an entry's pros and cons go into the
room under its words on the opener, the panorama or the quiet page, with a
note when they find none. A chapter map is the map of the chapter's trip, and
entries on no trip are named in the notes. The sorts compare by code unit, the
summary metrics and the page lookups exist once, and a flag or country mark
asked for by its own code is labelled with that country.
The shared book engine takes the schema's own frame type, so the client's
non-strict compile accepts a zod frame; promise lookups compare against
undefined, the render wait keeps its timer const, the notification store
moves its read and unread update into one helper, and the registry test
counts the two book packages.
Every element kind and Studio tool gets an op, the auto layout and its
templates move from the client to shared with a parity fixture, and a pure
design engine turns directives into a finished book with design findings.
