2026-03-02 15:56:59 +00:00
### Fixes
- Fix clipboard "Outside int range" error — `pasteID` used unsigned int exceeding Kiwi's signed 32-bit field
- Error toasts are now sticky (don't auto-dismiss), with selectable text, copy button, and close button
2026-03-02 16:38:17 +00:00
- Truncate long node names in export button
2026-03-02 15:56:59 +00:00
2026-03-02 16:46:04 +00:00
### Build
- Auto-populate GitHub Release notes from CHANGELOG.md via `ffurrer2/extract-release-notes@v2`
- Skip already-published npm versions on CI re-runs instead of failing
2026-03-02 16:35:18 +00:00
### Internal
- Extract shared color constants (`BLACK`, `TRANSPARENT` , `DEFAULT_SHADOW_COLOR` ) — replaces 8 inline literals across core
2026-03-02 16:52:03 +00:00
- Extract shared `NodeContextMenuContent` component to avoid menu duplication
2026-03-02 15:56:59 +00:00
### Tests
- Clipboard roundtrip tests: encode to Figma Kiwi binary → decode → verify
2026-03-02 16:35:18 +00:00
2026-03-02 15:14:35 +00:00
## [0.4.2] (2026-03-02)
2026-03-02 15:07:59 +00:00
### Fixes
- Fix Figma clipboard paste: skip non-visual node types (variables, widgets, stickies, connectors)
- Fix text not rendering after paste — `letterSpacing` from Figma is a `{value, units}` object, was passed as-is → `NaN` broke CanvasKit paragraph layout
- Fix undo/redo for Figma paste — no undo entry was recorded; redo duplicated `childIds`
- Center pasted Figma content in viewport instead of using original coordinates
- Compute auto-layouts after clipboard paste (same as .fig import and demo creation)
### Improvements
- Import additional properties from Figma clipboard: `layoutAlignSelf` , `clipsContent` , `fontWeight` , `italic` , `letterSpacing` , `lineHeight`
- Convert `letterSpacing` PERCENT units to pixels based on font size
### Tests
- 7 new clipboard import unit tests (14 total)
2026-03-02 15:12:36 +00:00
## [0.4.1] (2026-03-02)
2026-03-02 12:51:34 +00:00
### Fixes
- Fix text disappearing after hover when SkPicture cache was recorded before fonts loaded
- Invalidate scene picture cache on font load to prevent stale fallback text
### Docs
- Highlight copy & paste with Figma in README and feature docs
- Replace "fig-kiwi" format name with "Kiwi binary" — the format is shared between .fig files and clipboard
2026-03-02 15:12:36 +00:00
## [0.4.0] (2026-03-02)
2026-03-02 10:57:03 +00:00
### Features
2026-03-02 11:59:59 +00:00
- MCP server (`@open-pencil/mcp`) — 29 tools for headless .fig editing via stdio (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf) or HTTP (Hono + Streamable HTTP with sessions)
- `openpencil-mcp` and `openpencil-mcp-http` binaries — install globally via `bun add -g @open-pencil/mcp`
### Build
- All packages emit JS via tsgo + fix-esm-import-path — `@open-pencil/core` and `@open-pencil/mcp` work on Node.js without Bun
- Core package exports: `bun` condition → src (dev), `import` condition → dist (npm consumers)
- `@open-pencil/mcp` added to CI publish workflow

## [0.3.2] (2026-03-02)
2026-03-02 08:33:49 +00:00
### Performance
- Re-apply SkPicture scene caching for ~7x faster pan/zoom (0.98ms vs 6.8ms per frame at 500 nodes)
### Tests
- Visual regression tests for SkPicture cache: hover on/off cycle, multiple cycles, mouse hover, scene change + hover
- Type `window.__OPEN_PENCIL_STORE__` globally, remove ad-hoc casts from tests
