We shouldn't be making this something you have to negate everytime you
use `useEditableText`. The TextShape can just have its custom behavior
since that's the intended usecase. (although I think that Tab there
doesn't do much anyway, but whatevs)

### Test Plan
1. Make a text shape
2. resize it
3. It should stay within the bounds
### Release Notes
- Fixes an issue with text shapes overflowing their bounds when resized.
This is the first of three textfield changes. This starts with making
the speech bubble actually have text. Also, it creates a TipTap example
and how that would be wired up.
🎵 this is dangerous, I walk through textfields so watch your head rock 🎵
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Release Notes
- Refactor textfields be composable/swappable.
## Migration path
1. If any of your shapes implement `toSvg` for exports, you'll need to
replace your implementation with a new version that returns JSX (it's a
react component) instead of manually constructing SVG DOM nodes
2. `editor.getSvg` is deprecated. It still works, but will be going away
in a future release. If you still need SVGs as DOM elements rather than
strings, use `new DOMParser().parseFromString(svgString,
'image/svg+xml').firstElementChild`
## The change in detail
At the moment, our SVG exports very carefully try to recreate the
visuals of our shapes by manually constructing SVG DOM nodes. On its own
this is really painful, but it also results in a lot of duplicated logic
between the `component` and `getSvg` methods of shape utils.
In #3020, we looked at using string concatenation & DOMParser to make
this a bit less painful. This works, but requires specifying namespaces
everywhere, is still pretty painful (no syntax highlighting or
formatting), and still results in all that duplicated logic.
I briefly experimented with creating my own version of the javascript
language that let you embed XML like syntax directly. I was going to
call it EXTREME JAVASCRIPT or XJS for short, but then I noticed that we
already wrote the whole of tldraw in this thing called react and a (imo
much worse named) version of the javascript xml thing already existed.
Given the entire library already depends on react, what would it look
like if we just used react directly for these exports? Turns out things
get a lot simpler! Take a look at lmk what you think
This diff was intended as a proof of concept, but is actually pretty
close to being landable. The main thing is that here, I've deliberately
leant into this being a big breaking change to see just how much code we
could delete (turns out: lots). We could if we wanted to make this
without making it a breaking change at all, but it would add back a lot
of complexity on our side and run a fair bit slower

This PR fixes the input tags, which were set to `false` rather than
`off`, as they should be.
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Test Plan
1. Test autocomplete
2. Test autocapitalize
3. Test autocorrect
4. Make sure that password managers don't show up
### Release Notes
- Fixed autocomplete, autocapitalize, and autocorrect tags on text
inputs.
as i look into textfields the places where we are using them are
out-of-sync at the moment. this brings them in line with each other for
further refactoring later.
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
This PR adds the `TldrawImage` component that displays a tldraw snapshot
as an SVG image.
## Why
We've seen requests for this kind of thing from users. eg: GitBook, and
on discord:
<img width="710" alt="image"
src="https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw/assets/15892272/3d3a3e9d-66b9-42e7-81de-a70aa7165bdc">
The component provides a way to do that.
This PR also untangles various bits of editor state from image
exporting, which makes it easier for library users to export images more
agnostically. (ie: they can now export any shapes on any page in any
theme. previously, they had to change the user's state to do that).
## What else
- This PR also adds an **Image snapshot** example to demonstrate the new
component.
- We now pass an `isDarkMode` property to the `toSvg` method (inside the
`ctx` argument). This means that `toSvg` doesn't have to rely on editor
state anymore. I updated all our `toSvg` methods to use it.
- See code comments for more info.
## Any issues?
When you toggle to editing mode in the new example, text measurements
are initially wrong (until you edit the size of a text shape). Click on
the text shape to see how its indicator is wrong. Not sure why this is,
or if it's even related. Does it ring a bell with anyone? If not, I'll
take a closer look. (fixed, see comments --steve)
## Future work
Now that we've untangled image exporting from editor state, we could
expose some more helpful helpers for making this easier.
Fixes tld-2122
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
[^1]: publishes a `patch` release, for devDependencies use `internal`
[^2]: will not publish a new version
### Test Plan
1. Open the **Image snapshot** example.
2. Try editing the image, saving the image, and making sure the image
updates.
- [ ] Unit Tests
- [ ] End to end tests
### Release Notes
- Dev: Added the `TldrawImage` component.

Biome as it is now didn't work out for us 😢
Summary for posterity:
* it IS much, much faster, fast enough to skip any sort of caching
* we couldn't fully replace Prettier just yet. We use Prettier
programmatically to format code in docs, and Biome's JS interface is
officially alpha and [had legacy peer deps
set](https://github.com/biomejs/biome/pull/1756) (which would fail our
CI build as we don't allow installation warnings)
* ternary formatting differs from Prettier, leading to a large diff
https://github.com/biomejs/biome/issues/1661
* import sorting differs from Prettier's
`prettier-plugin-organize-imports`, making the diff even bigger
* the deal breaker is a multi-second delay on saving large files (for us
it's
[Editor.ts](https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw/blob/main/packages/editor/src/lib/editor/Editor.ts))
in VSCode when import sorting is enabled. There is a seemingly relevant
Biome issue where I posted a small summary of our findings:
https://github.com/biomejs/biome/issues/1569#issuecomment-1930411623
Further actions:
* reevaluate in a few months as Biome matures
### Change Type
- [x] `internal` — Any other changes that don't affect the published
package
Biome seems to be MUCH faster than Prettier. Unfortunately, it
introduces some formatting changes around the ternary operator, so we
have to update files in the repo. To make revert easier if we need it,
the change is split into two PRs. This PR introduces a Biome CI check
and reformats all files accordingly.
## Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
This PR adds the docs app back into the tldraw monorepo.
## Deploying
We'll want to update our deploy script to update the SOURCE_SHA to the
newest release sha... and then deploy the docs pulling api.json files
from that release. We _could_ update the docs on every push to main, but
we don't have to unless something has changed. Right now there's no
automated deployments from this repo.
## Side effects
To make this one work, I needed to update the lock file. This might be
ok (new year new lock file), and everything builds as expected, though
we may want to spend some time with our scripts to be sure that things
are all good.
I also updated our prettier installation, which decided to add trailing
commas to every generic type. Which is, I suppose, [correct
behavior](https://github.com/prettier/prettier-vscode/issues/955)? But
that caused diffs in every file, which is unfortunate.
### Change Type
- [x] `internal` — Any other changes that don't affect the published
package[^2]
This PR is a fork of #2119
It only has one of the two changes:
* Remove indicator for autosize text shapes while editing.
I think we should merge this one, and continue discussion of the other
one (alignment).
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Test Plan
1. Click to draw a text shape.
2. You shouldn't see the shape's indicator while editing it.
3. Drag to draw a text shape.
4. You *should* see the shape's indicator while editing it.
- [ ] Unit Tests
- [ ] End to end tests
### Release Notes
- Removed the indicator from autosize text shapes.
We got things sliggghhhtly wrong in #1980. That diff was attempting to
fix a bug where the text measurement element would refuse to go above
the viewport size in safari. This was most obvious in the case where
there was no fixed width on a text shape, and that diff fixed that case,
but it was also happening when a fixed width text shape was wider than
viewport - which wasn't covered by that fix. It turned out that that fix
also introduced a bug where shapes would no longer grow along the y-axis
- in part because the relationship between `width`, `maxWidth`, and
`minWidth` is very confusing.
The one-liner fix is to just use `max-content` instead of `fit-content`
- that way, the div ignores the size of its container. But I also
cleared up the API for text measurement to remove the `width` property
entirely in favour of `maxWidth`. I think this makes things much clearer
and as far as I can tell doesn't affect anything.
Closes#1998
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Test Plan
1. Create an arrow & geo shape with labels, plus a note and text shape
2. Try to break text measurement - overflow the bounds, make very wide
text, experiment with fixed/auto-size text, etc.

closes [#1978](https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw/issues/1978)
Text was wrapping on Safari because the measure text div was rendered
differently on different browsers. Interestingly, when forcing the
text-measure div to be visible and on-screen in Chrome, the same
text-wrapping behaviour was apparent. By setting white-space to 'pre'
when width hasn't been set by the user, we can ensure that only line
breaks the user has inputted are rendered by default on all browsers.
### Change Type

package[^2]
- [ ] I don't know
[^1]: publishes a `patch` release, for devDependencies use `internal`
[^2]: will not publish a new version
### Test Plan
1. On Safari
2. Make a new text shape and start typing
3. At a certain point the text starts to wrap without the width having
been set
### Release Notes
- Fix text wrapping differently on Safari and Chrome/Firefox

This PR removes 'targeted editing' from text.
This affects when you're:
* using the text tool
* editing a text shape
* editing a text label
* editing an arrow label
When in one of these modes, you were able to click on some other text to
immediately start editing it (as long as that text is the same type).
It was a bit broken with some of the newer changes, so this PR removes
it. The issues included:
* selected text 'flashing'
* caret going to the start of the text
* empty text shapes not disappearing
* inconsistent behaviour when clicking near a shape VS on a shape
It feels a bit simpler now too, I like it... 🤔💭
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Test Plan
- [ ] Unit Tests
- [ ] End to end tests
### Release Notes
- Fixed some cases where text would get selected in the wrong place.
- Changed the behaviour of text selection. Removed 'deep editing'.

This PR improves the UX around sticky notes. It fixes were some bugs
related to the editing / hovered shape after cloning a sticky note
shape.
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Test Plan
1. Use the sticky note tool
2. Alt-drag to clone sticky notes
3. Use the Enter key to edit the selected shape.
4. Double click an editable shape and then click once to edit a shape of
the same type.
- [x] Unit Tests
This PR includes further UX improvements to selection.
- clicking inside of a hollow shape will no longer select it on pointer
up
- clicking a shape's filled label will select it on pointer down
- clicking a shape's empty label will select it on pointer up
- clicking and dragging a selected arrow is now better limited to its
body, not its bounds
- arrows will no longer bind to labels
### Text labels
A big change here relates to text labels. Previously, we had listeners
set on the text label elements; I've removed these and we now check the
actual label bounds geometry for a hit. For geo shapes, this geometry is
now placed correctly based on the alignment / vertical alignment of the
label.
- Clicking on a label with text in it will select the shape on pointer
down.
- Clicking on an empty text label will select the shape on pointer up.
## Hollow shapes
Previously, shapes with `fill: none` were also being selected on pointer
up. I've removed that logic because it was producing wrong-feeling
selections too often. We now select these shapes only when clicking on
the label (as mentioned above) or when clicking on the edges of the
shape. This is in line with the original behavior (currently on
tldraw.com, prior to the earlier PR that updated selection logic).
## Arrows
Arrows still hit the inside of hollow shapes, using the "smallest
hovered" logic previously used for pointer-up selection on hollow
shapes. They also now correctly do so while ignoring text labels.
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Test Plan
1. try selecting geo shapes, nested geo shapes, arrows and shapes with
labels or without labels
- [x] Unit Tests
This PR fixes the extra outlines on text shapes when not editing those
shapes.
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Test Plan
1. Create two text shapes
2. Edit one of them
3. The outline on the second shape should not be shown
This PR is a significant rewrite of our selection / hit testing logic.
It
- replaces our current geometric helpers (`getBounds`, `getOutline`,
`hitTestPoint`, and `hitTestLineSegment`) with a new geometry API
- moves our hit testing entirely to JS using geometry
- improves selection logic, especially around editing shapes, groups and
frames
- fixes many minor selection bugs (e.g. shapes behind frames)
- removes hit-testing DOM elements from ShapeFill etc.
- adds many new tests around selection
- adds new tests around selection
- makes several superficial changes to surface editor APIs
This PR is hard to evaluate. The `selection-omnibus` test suite is
intended to describe all of the selection behavior, however all existing
tests are also either here preserved and passing or (in a few cases
around editing shapes) are modified to reflect the new behavior.
## Geometry
All `ShapeUtils` implement `getGeometry`, which returns a single
geometry primitive (`Geometry2d`). For example:
```ts
class BoxyShapeUtil {
getGeometry(shape: BoxyShape) {
return new Rectangle2d({
width: shape.props.width,
height: shape.props.height,
isFilled: true,
margin: shape.props.strokeWidth
})
}
}
```
This geometric primitive is used for all bounds calculation, hit
testing, intersection with arrows, etc.
There are several geometric primitives that extend `Geometry2d`:
- `Arc2d`
- `Circle2d`
- `CubicBezier2d`
- `CubicSpline2d`
- `Edge2d`
- `Ellipse2d`
- `Group2d`
- `Polygon2d`
- `Rectangle2d`
- `Stadium2d`
For shapes that have more complicated geometric representations, such as
an arrow with a label, the `Group2d` can accept other primitives as its
children.
## Hit testing
Previously, we did all hit testing via events set on shapes and other
elements. In this PR, I've replaced those hit tests with our own
calculation for hit tests in JavaScript. This removed the need for many
DOM elements, such as hit test area borders and fills which only existed
to trigger pointer events.
## Selection
We now support selecting "hollow" shapes by clicking inside of them.
This involves a lot of new logic but it should work intuitively. See
`Editor.getShapeAtPoint` for the (thoroughly commented) implementation.
every sunset is actually the sun hiding in fear and respect of tldraw's
quality of interactions
This PR also fixes several bugs with scribble selection, in particular
around the shift key modifier.
...as well as issues with labels and editing.
There are **over 100 new tests** for selection covering groups, frames,
brushing, scribbling, hovering, and editing. I'll add a few more before
I feel comfortable merging this PR.
## Arrow binding
Using the same "hollow shape" logic as selection, arrow binding is
significantly improved.
a thousand wise men could not improve on this
## Moving focus between editing shapes
Previously, this was handled in the `editing_shapes` state. This is
moved to `useEditableText`, and should generally be considered an
advanced implementation detail on a shape-by-shape basis. This addresses
a bug that I'd never noticed before, but which can be reproduced by
selecting an shape—but not focusing its input—while editing a different
shape. Previously, the new shape became the editing shape but its input
did not focus.
In this PR, you can select a shape by clicking on its edge or body, or
select its input to transfer editing / focus.
tldraw, glorious tldraw
### Change Type
- [x] `major` — Breaking change

1. Erase shapes
2. Select shapes
3. Calculate their bounding boxes

### Release Notes

`ShapeUtil.hitTestPoint`, `ShapeUtil.hitTestLineSegment`
- [editor] Add `ShapeUtil.getGeometry`
- [editor] Add `Editor.getShapeGeometry`
This PR removes several extraneous computed values from the editor. It
adds some silly instance state onto the instance state record and
unifies a few methods which were inconsistent. This is fit and finish
work 🧽
## Computed Values
In general, where once we had a getter and setter for `isBlahMode`,
which really masked either an `_isBlahMode` atom on the editor or
`instanceState.isBlahMode`, these are merged into `instanceState`; they
can be accessed / updated via `editor.instanceState` /
`editor.updateInstanceState`.
## tldraw select tool specific things
This PR also removes some tldraw specific state checks and creates new
component overrides to allow us to include them in tldraw/tldraw.

This PR moves code between our packages so that:
- @tldraw/editor is a “core” library with the engine and canvas but no
shapes, tools, or other things
- @tldraw/tldraw contains everything particular to the experience we’ve
built for tldraw
At first look, this might seem like a step away from customization and
configuration, however I believe it greatly increases the configuration
potential of the @tldraw/editor while also providing a more accurate
reflection of what configuration options actually exist for
@tldraw/tldraw.
## Library changes
@tldraw/editor re-exports its dependencies and @tldraw/tldraw re-exports
@tldraw/editor.
- users of @tldraw/editor WITHOUT @tldraw/tldraw should almost always
only import things from @tldraw/editor.
- users of @tldraw/tldraw should almost always only import things from
@tldraw/tldraw.
- @tldraw/polyfills is merged into @tldraw/editor
- @tldraw/indices is merged into @tldraw/editor
- @tldraw/primitives is merged mostly into @tldraw/editor, partially
into @tldraw/tldraw
- @tldraw/file-format is merged into @tldraw/tldraw
- @tldraw/ui is merged into @tldraw/tldraw
Many (many) utils and other code is moved from the editor to tldraw. For
example, embeds now are entirely an feature of @tldraw/tldraw. The only
big chunk of code left in core is related to arrow handling.
## API Changes
The editor can now be used without tldraw's assets. We load them in
@tldraw/tldraw instead, so feel free to use whatever fonts or images or
whatever that you like with the editor.
All tools and shapes (except for the `Group` shape) are moved to
@tldraw/tldraw. This includes the `select` tool.
You should use the editor with at least one tool, however, so you now
also need to send in an `initialState` prop to the Editor /
<TldrawEditor> component indicating which state the editor should begin
in.
The `components` prop now also accepts `SelectionForeground`.
The complex selection component that we use for tldraw is moved to
@tldraw/tldraw. The default component is quite basic but can easily be
replaced via the `components` prop. We pass down our tldraw-flavored
SelectionFg via `components`.
Likewise with the `Scribble` component: the `DefaultScribble` no longer
uses our freehand tech and is a simple path instead. We pass down the
tldraw-flavored scribble via `components`.
The `ExternalContentManager` (`Editor.externalContentManager`) is
removed and replaced with a mapping of types to handlers.
- Register new content handlers with
`Editor.registerExternalContentHandler`.
- Register new asset creation handlers (for files and URLs) with
`Editor.registerExternalAssetHandler`
