### Release Notes
- Adds selection UI example.
- Adds `Editor.getSelectionRotatedScreenBounds` method
- Fixes a bug with `pageToScreen`.
By default, tldraw's brushing mode will select when the box intersects
an shape's geometry. A user can hold Command / Ctrl to require that the
selection box fully contain a shape's bounds instead.
Some people really prefer the opposite. Three years! Three years I've
been saying "no no no".
This PR adds a user preference to flip the logic. When `isWrapMode` is
true, selection requires that the box completely contain a shape before
it's added to the list of selecting shapes; and ctrl flips back to
intersection instead.
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Test Plan
1. Turn on wrap mode in the user preferences menu.
2. Select stuff.
3. Use the ctrl key to except the behavior back to intersection.

### Release Notes
- Added `isWrapMode` to user preferences.
- Added Wrap Mode toggle to user preferences menu.
This PR adds a validation mode whereby previous known-to-be-valid values
can be used to speed up the validation process itself. At the same time
it enables us to do fine-grained equality checking on records much more
quickly than by using something like lodash isEqual, and using that we
can prevent triggering effects for record updates that don't actually
alter any values in the store.
Here's some preliminary perf testing of average time spent in
`store.put()` during some common interactions
| task | before (ms) | after (ms) |
| ---- | ---- | ---- |
| drawing lines | 0.0403 | 0.0214 |
| drawing boxes | 0.0408 | 0.0348 |
| translating lines | 0.0352 | 0.0042 |
| translating boxes | 0.0051 | 0.0032 |
| rotating lines | 0.0312 | 0.0065 |

| traversal with shapes | 0.0130 | 0.0108 |
| traversal without shapes | 0.0201 | 0.0173 |
**traversal** means moving the camera and pointer around the canvas
#### Discussion
At the scale of hundredths of a millisecond these .put operations are so
fast that even if they became literally instantaneous the change would
not be human perceptible. That said, there is an overall marked
improvement here. Especially for dealing with draw shapes.
These figures are also mostly in line with expectations, aside from a
couple of things:
- I don't understand why the `brush selecting boxes` task got slower
after the change.
- I don't understand why the `traversal` tasks are slower than the
`translating boxes` task, both before and after. I would expect that
.putting shape records would be much slower than .putting pointer/camera
records (since the latter have fewer and simpler properties)

This diff adds a self-snapping API for handles. Self-snapping is used
when a shape's handles want to snap to the shape itself. By default,
this isn't allowed because moving the handle might move the snap point,
which creates a janky user experience.
Now, shapes can return customised versions of their normal handle
snapping geometry in these cases. As a bonus, line shapes now snap to
other handles on their own line!

This one is a roundup of superficial changes, apologies for having them
in a single PR.
This PR:
- does some chair re-arranging for one of our hotter paths related to
updating shapes
- changes our type exports for editor components
- adds shape indicator to editor components
- moves canvas to be an editor component
- fixes a CSS bug with hinted buttons
- fixes CSS bugs with the menus
- fixes bad imports in examples
### Change Type
- [x] `major`
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

Currently, when dragging line handles they'll snap to the outlines of
other shapes, but not to their vertices. This can make it hard to snap
precisely to certain key places, like the handles of other lines, or the
corners of `geo` shapes.
This diff adds a new snap type for handles - snapping to points:
This adds to the new snapping API so the snapping points can very easily
be customised on a shape-by-shape basis. Closes TLD-2198

### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Test Plan
1. create a line shape
2. drag its handles whilst holding command
3. it should snap to the outlines of other shapes, vertices of other
line shapes, and the bounding box corners/center of most 'boxy' shapes
(geo, embed, etc)
- [x] Unit Tests
### Release Notes
- Line handles
This diff adds an API for customising our existing snap types. These
are:
1. Bound snapping. When translating or resizing a shape, it'll snap to
certain key points on the bounds of particular shapes. Previously, these
were hard-coded to the corners and center of the bounding box of the
shape. Now, a shape can bring its own (e.g. a triangle may add snapping
for its 3 corners, and it's centroid rather than bounding box center.
2. Handle outline snapping. When dragging a handle, it'll snap to the
outline of other shapes geometry. Now, shapes can return different
geometry for this sort of snapping if they like.
Each of these is customised through a method on `ShapeUtil`:
`getBoundsSnapGeometry` and `getHandleSnapGeometry`. These return
interfaces describing the different geometry that can be snapped to in
both these cases. Currently, each returns an object with a single
property, but there are more types of snapping coming in follow-up PRs.
When reviewing this PR, start with the definitions of
`BoundsSnapGeometry` in `BoundsSnaps.ts` and `HandleSnapGeometry` in
`HandleSnaps.ts`
This doesn't add point snapping - i'll add that in a follow-up! It'll be
customisable with the `getHandleSnapGeometry` API.

This PR refactors our menu systems and provides an interface to hide or
replace individual user interface elements.
# Background
Previously, we've had two types of overrides:
- "schema" overrides that would allow insertion or replacement of items
in the different menus
- "component" overrides that would replace components in the editor's
user interface
This PR is an attempt to unify the two and to provide for additional
cases where the "schema-based" user interface had begun to break down.
# Approach
This PR makes no attempt to change the `actions` or `tools`
overrides—the current system seems to be correct for those because they
are not reactive. The challenge with the other ui schemas is that they
_are_ reactive, and thus the overrides both need to a) be fed in from
outside of the editor as props, and b) react to changes from the editor,
which is an impossible situation.
The new approach is to use React to declare menu items. (Surprise!)
```tsx
function CustomHelpMenuContent() {
return (
<>
<DefaultHelpMenuContent />
<TldrawUiMenuGroup id="custom stuff">
<TldrawUiMenuItem
id="about"
label="Like my posts"
icon="external-link"
readonlyOk
onSelect={() => {
window.open('https://x.com/tldraw', '_blank')
}}
/>
</TldrawUiMenuGroup>
</>
)
}
const components: TLComponents = {
HelpMenuContent: CustomHelpMenuContent,
}
export default function CustomHelpMenuContentExample() {
return (
<div className="tldraw__editor">
<Tldraw components={components} />
</div>
)
}
```
We use a `components` prop with the combined editor and ui components.
- [ ] Create a "layout" component?
- [ ] Make UI components more isolated? If possible, they shouldn't
depend on styles outside of themselves, so that they can be used in
other layouts. Maybe we wait on this because I'm feeling a slippery
slope toward presumptions about configurability.
- [ ] OTOH maybe we go hard and consider these things as separate
components, even packages, with their own interfaces for customizability
/ configurability, just go all the way with it, and see what that looks
like.
# Pros
Top line: you can customize tldraw's user interface in a MUCH more
granular / powerful way than before.
It solves a case where menu items could not be made stateful from
outside of the editor context, and provides the option to do things in
the menus that we couldn't allow previously with the "schema-based"
approach.
It also may (who knows) be more performant because we can locate the
state inside of the components for individual buttons and groups,
instead of all at the top level above the "schema". Because items /
groups decide their own state, we don't have to have big checks on how
many items are selected, or whether we have a flippable state. Items and
groups themselves are allowed to re-build as part of the regular React
lifecycle. Menus aren't constantly being rebuilt, if that were ever an
issue.
Menu items can be shared between different menu types. We'll are
sometimes able to re-use items between, for example, the menu and the
context menu and the actions menu.
Our overrides no longer mutate anything, so there's less weird searching
and finding.
# Cons
This approach can make customization menu contents significantly more
complex, as an end user would need to re-declare most of a menu in order
to make any change to it. Luckily a user can add things to the top or
bottom of the context menu fairly easily. (And who knows, folks may
actually want to do deep customization, and this allows for it.)
It's more code. We are shipping more react components, basically one for
each menu item / group.
Currently this PR does not export the subcomponents, i.e. menu items. If
we do want to export these, then heaven help us, it's going to be a
_lot_ of exports.

Currently, we type our fractional index keys as `string` and don't have
any validation for them. I'm touching some of this code for my work on
line handles and wanted to change that:
- fractional indexes are now `IndexKey`s, not `string`s. `IndexKey`s
have a brand property so can't be used interchangeably with strings
(like our IDs)
- There's a new `T.indexKey` validator which we can use in our
validations to make sure we don't end up with nonsense keys.

This PR changes the way that viewport bounds are calculated by using the
canvas element as the source of truth, rather than the container. This
allows for cases where the canvas is not the same dimensions as the
component. (Given the way our UI and context works, there are cases
where this is desired, i.e. toolbars and other items overlaid on top of
the canvas area).
The editor's `getContainer` is now only used for the text measurement.
It would be good to get that out somehow.
# Pros
We can inset the canvas
# Cons
We can no longer imperatively call `updateScreenBounds`, as we need to
provide those bounds externally.
### Change Type
- [x] `major` — Breaking change
### Test Plan
1. Use the examples, including the new inset canvas example.
- [x] Unit Tests
### Release Notes
- Changes the source of truth for the viewport page bounds to be the
canvas instead.
`Geometry2d.isSnappable` isn't used. There's some intended behaviour
here around making it so you can't snap handles to text labels, but it's
not actually working.
This is a breaking change, but given this property doesn't do anything I
don't think it's likely to be heavily depended upon

This would happen when trying to translate a zero-width bound arrow.
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Release Notes
- Fixes zero-width arrow NaN computation when moving the label.
Taking the opportunity for some last-minute low-consequence breaking
changes before 2.0, this diff does some prep work for adding a new
snapping API by making the distinction between the two types of snapping
a bit clearer and cleaning up some naming.
- `SnapManager` has had most of the actual snapping logic moved into two
properties: `shapeBounds` (for snapping shape bounds on translate and
resize) and `handles` (for snapping handles)
- `SnapLine`s are renamed to `SnapIndicator`s. The 'line' name was a bit
confusing because not all of these indicators are lines (the new vertex
snap type will be a single point)
I'm not too worried about this being a breaking change as it touches an
area of the API that I'd be very surprised if more than a couple of
people were using.
### Change Type
- [x] `major` — Breaking change
### Test Plan
- No user-facing changes.
### Release Notes
- `SnapLine`s are now called `SnapIndicator`s
- Snapping methods moved from `editor.snaps` to
`editor.snaps.shapeBounds` and `editor.snaps.handles` depending on the
type of snapping you're trying to do.
This is a followup on the arrows work.
- allow labels to go to the ends if no arrowhead is present
- avoid using / overloading TLHandle and use a new PointingLabel state
to specifically address label movement
- removes the feature flag to launch this feature!
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Release Notes
- Arrow labels: provide more polish on label placement

This adds the ability to drag the label on an arrow to a different
location within the line segment/arc.
https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw/assets/469604/dbd2ee35-bebc-48d6-b8ee-fcf12ce91fa5
- A lot of the complexity lay in ensuring a fixed distance from the ends
of the arrowheads.
- I added a new type of handle `text-adjust` that makes the text box the
very handle itself.
- I added a `ARROW_HANDLES` enum - we should use more enums!
- The bulk of the changes are in ArrowShapeUtil — check that out in
particular obviously :)
Along the way, I tried to improve a couple spots as I touched them:
- added some more documentation to Vec.ts because some of the functions
in there were obscure/new to me. (at least the naming, hah)
- added `getPointOnCircle` which was being done in a couple places
independently and refactored those places.
### Questions
- the `getPointOnCircle` API changed. Is this considered breaking and/or
should I leave the signature the same? Wasn't sure if it was a big deal
or not.
- I made `labelPosition` in the schema always but I guess it could have
been optional? Lemme know if there's a preference.
- Any feedback on tests? Happy to expand those if necessary.

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.

This is an attempt at #1989. The big issue there is when `shapeUtils`
change when you're relying on tldraw to provide you with the store
instead of providing your own. Our `useTLStore` component had a bug
where it would rely on effects & a ref to detect when its options had
changed whilst still scheduling updates. Fresh opts would come in, but
they'd be different from the ones in the ref, so we'd schedule an
update, so the opts would come in again, but they'd still be different
as we hadn't run effects yet, and we'd schedule an update again (and so
on).
This diff fixes that by storing the previous opts in state instead of a
ref, so they're updating in lockstep with the store itself. this
prevents the update loop.
There are still situations where we can get into loops if the developer
is passing in custom tools, shapeUtils, or components but not memoising
them or defining them outside of react. As a DX improvement, we do some
auto-memoisation of these values using shallow equality to help with
this issue.

This improves how zooming works when we zoom in an inactive window. With
this change you should zoom towards the pointer position, while before
it zoomed towards the last known pointer position before the window
became inactive.

This PR restores the controlled nature of focus. Focus allows keyboard
shortcuts and other interactions to occur. The editor's focus should
always / entirely be controlled via the autoFocus prop or by manually
setting `editor.instanceState.isFocused`.
Design note: I'm starting to think that focus is the wrong abstraction,
and that we should instead use a kind of "disabled" state for editors
that the user isn't interacting with directly. In a page where multiple
editors exit (e.g. a notion page), a developer could switch from
disabled to enabled using a first interaction.

This PR fixes some cases where, if a member function (like `onEnter`)

### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
This PR makes it so that user preferences can be in a 'null' state,
where we use the default values and/or infer from the system
preferences.
Before this PR it was impossible to allow a user to change their locale
via their system config rather than selecting an explicit value in the
tldraw editor menu. Similarly, it was impossible to adapt to changes in
the user's system preferences for dark/light mode.
That's because we saved the full user preference values the first time
the user loaded tldraw, and the only way for them to change after that
is by saving new values.
After this PR, if a value is `null` we will use the 'default' version of
it, which can be inferred based on the user's system preferences in the
case of dark mode, locale, and animation speed. Then if the user changes
their system config and refreshes the page their changes should be
picked up by tldraw where they previously wouldn't have been.
Dark mode inference is opt-in by setting a prop `inferDarkMode: true` on
the `Editor` instance (and the `<Tldraw />` components), because we
don't want it to be a surprise for existing library users.

Currently, the highlighter shape uses a single 0-width line for its
geometry, same as the draw tool. For the draw tool this works ok - the
visual line is thin enough that unless you zoom right in, it's hard to
find areas where the hover should trigger but isn't. As the highlighter
tool is much thicker though, it's relatively easy to find those areas.
The fix is for the geometry to represent the line including its thick
stroke, instead of at 0-width. There are two possible approaches here:
1. Update the polyline geometry to allow passing a stroke width.
2. Instead of a polyline, make the highlighter shape be a polygon that
traces _around_ the stroke
1 is the more accurate approach, but is hard to fit into our geometry
system. Our geometry is based around two primitives: `getVertices` which
returns an array of points around the shape, and `nearestPoint` which
returns the nearest point on the geometry to a vector we pass in. We can
account for a stroke in `nearestPoint` pretty easily, including it in
`getVertices` is hard - we'd have to expand the vertices and handle line
join/caps etc. Just making the change in `nearestPoint` does fix the
issue here, but i'm not sure about the knock-on effect elsewhere and
don't really want to introduce 1-off hacks into the core geometry
system.
2 actually means addressing the same hard problem around outlining
strokes as 1, but it lets us do it in a more tightly-scoped one-off
change just to the highlighter shape, instead of trying to come up with
a generic solution for the whole geometry system. This is the approach
I've taken in this diff. We outline the stroke using perfect-freehand,
which works pretty well but produces inaccurate results at edge-cases,
particularly when a line rapidly changes direction:
I think that given this is scoped to just the highlighter shape and is
imo an improvement over the stroke issue from before, it's a reasonable
solution for now. If we want to in the future we could implement real
non-freehand-based outlining.
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Test Plan
1. Create a highlight shape
2. Zoom in
3. Make sure you can interact with the shape at its edges instead of
right in the center
This PR adds the source items from a paste event to the data shared with
external content handlers. This allows developers to customize the way
certain content is handled.
For example, pasting text sometimes incudes additional clipboard items,
such as the HTML representation of that text. We wouldn't want to create
two shapes—one for the text and one for the HTML—so we still treat this
as a single text paste. The `registerExternalContentHandler` API allows
a developer to change how that text is handled, and the new `sources`
API will now allow the developer to take into consideration all of the
items that were on the clipboard.
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Test Plan
1. Try the external content source example.
2. Paste text that includes HTML (e.g. from VS Code)
### Release Notes
- [editor / tldraw] add `sources` to `TLExternalContent`
This PR:
- adds `canSnap` as a property to handle and ignores snapping when
dragging a handle that does not have `canSnap` set to true. Arrows no

Add `Store.migrateSnapshot`, another surface API alongside getSnapshot
and loadSnapshot.
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Release Notes
- [editor] add `Store.migrateSnapshot`
This PR:
- adds a `snapshot` prop to the <Tldraw> component. It does basically
the same thing as calling `loadSnapshot` after creating the store, but
happens before the editor actually loads.
- adds a largeish example (including a JSON snapshot) to the examples
We have some very complex ways of juggling serialized data between
multiplayer, file formats, and the snapshot APIs. I'd like to see these
simplified, or at least for our documentation to reflect a narrow subset
of all the options available.
The most common questions seem to be:
Q: How do I serialize data?
A: Via the `Editor.getSnapshot()` method
Q: How do I restore serialized data?
A: Via the `Editor.loadSnapshot()` method OR via the `<Tldraw>`
component's `snapshot` prop
The store has an `initialData` constructor prop, however this is quite
complex as the store also requires a schema class instance with which to
migrate the data. In our components (<Tldraw> and <TldrawEditor>) we
were also accepting `initialData`, however we weren't accepting a
schema, and either way I think it's unrealistic to also expect users to
create schemas themselves and pass those in.
AFAIK the `initialData` prop is only used in the file loading, which is
a good example of how complex it looks like to create a schema and
migrate data outside of the components.

This PR updates the way that styles are changed. It splits `setStyle`

- [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

- makes camera commands accept points rather than an x/y
- `centerOnPoint`
- `pageToScreen`

- makes `zoomToBounds` accept a `Box2d` rather than x/y/w/h
- removes the `getBoundingClientRects` call from `getPointerInfo`
- removes the resize observer from `useScreenBounds`, uses an interval
instead when focused
A big (unexpected) improvement here is that `getBoundingClientRects` was
being called on every pointer move. This is a relatively expensive call
(it forces reflow) which could impact interactions. It's now called at
most once per second, and we could probably improve on that too if we
needed by only updating while in the select state.

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.

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`

### Release Notes
- Adds a cloud shape.
We'd like to make the @tldraw/editor layer more independent of specific
shapes. Unfortunately there are many places where shape types and
certain shape behavior is deeply embedded in the Editor. This PR begins
to refactor out dependencies between the editor library and shape utils.
It does this in two ways:
- removing shape utils from the arguments of `isShapeOfType`, replacing
with a generic
- removing shape utils from the arguments of `getShapeUtil`, replacing
with a generic
- moving custom arrow info cache out of the util and into the editor
class
- changing the a tool's `shapeType` to be a string instead of a shape
util
We're here trading type safety based on inferred types—"hey editor, give
me your instance of this shape util class"—for knowledge at the point of
call—"hey editor, give me a shape util class of this type; and trust me
it'll be an instance this shape util class". Likewise for shapes.
### A note on style
We haven't really established our conventions or style when it comes to
types, but I'm increasingly of the opinion that we should defer to the
point of call to narrow a type based on generics (keeping the types in
typescript land) rather than using arguments, which blur into JavaScript
land.

appears on the docs site.
We have docs already written, but they weren't appearing. There are
probably others like this too.

### Release Notes
- Docs: Fixed some missing docs for the TldrawEditor component.
This PR removes the `tool` parameter from the `defineShape` function.
It's an opinionated change that I think we should at the very least
consider.
## What's the context?
Currently, you can add **tools** (aka state nodes) to your state chart
in two different ways:
1. Passing them to the `<Tldraw>` component with the `tools` attribute.
2. As part of a shape definition's `tool` property, which you then pass
to the `<Tldraw>` component with the `shapes` attribute.
This is what (1) looks like:
```jsx
import { MyTool } from "./MyTool"
function Example() {
return <Tldraw tools={[MyTool]} />
}
```
This is what (2) looks like:
```jsx
import { MyTool } from "./MyTool"
import { MyShapeUtil, myShapeProps } from "./MyShape"
const MyShapeDefinition = defineShape("my-shape", {
util: MyShapeUtil,
props: myShapeProps,
tool: MyTool,
})
function Example() {
return <Tldraw shapes={[MyShapeDefinition]} />
}
```
Clearly, (1) is better for when you want to add *just a tool*, that
doesn't have an associated shape.
And (2) is better for when you want to add *both* a tool and an
associated shape.
## Why change it?
I think we should remove method (2). Because I think that it adds a few
complications.
#### Does it help?
I don't think that it helps to streamline the process of coupling shapes
and tools. You still need to remember to add your tool.
Seeing as `tool` is optional on the shape definition (rightly so), it
doesn't prompt you to do it.
#### What's easier to explain?
I think it's easier to just have to explain _one method_. It would take
longer to explain two methods, and it complicates the concepts involved.
Seeing as there's not a big benefit to one method over the other, the
added explanation wouldn't be a good trade-off.
#### What happens if I use both?
It's unclear to the user what would happen if they use both methods. Do
we know what the intended behaviour of this would be? I think this will
happen often.
```jsx
import { MyTool } from "./MyTool"
import { MyShapeUtil, myShapeProps } from "./MyShape"
const MyShapeDefinition = defineShape("my-shape", {
util: MyShapeUtil,
props: myShapeProps,
tool: MyTool,
})
function Example() {
return <Tldraw tools={[MyTool]} shapes={[MyShapeDefinition]} />
}
```
#### Does it fit my shape/tool?
Many shapes are coupled closely with one tool. But some shapes would
involve multiple tools. And some tools would involve multiple shapes.
For example, you might first add a tool and a shape that go nicely
together, so you use method (2). But two months later, you decide that
you want another tool to be able to make this shape too. Now you've
inserted your related tools in two different places, unless you
refactor.
Alternatively, you might want to add some more functionality to your
tool, so that it can make multiple types of shapes. Instead of
refactoring the existing shape, you want to create an entirely new
shape, to keep your new code separate. Should you add the `tool`
property to the new shape as well? What would happen if you did/didn't?
What happens if you later disable the original shape? Would you need to
move the `tool` property from there to the newer shape?
It would be a lot simpler to just have the tool in your list of tools,
instead of having them tangled up with shapes.
#### Plugins?
We've been considering moving towards some sort of 'plugins' system in
the future, that could collect together shapes, tools, and other stuff.
I think that a more complete concept of a 'plugin' would be the best
place to collect together shapes, and tools — not on the shape itself.

This PR fixes the editor sometimes incorrectly assuming that you're
using a coarse pointer in firefox. It's not a complete fix — it just
avoids some of the bigger issues with it. ie: It disables cursor chat.
To avoid the issue, we just assume that you have a fine pointer if
you're using firefox on desktop.
Eventually, we should do a more complete fix for this.
I QA'd this change on:
* Mac Firefox (no touch screen)
* Windows Firefox (touch screen)
* Android Firefox
### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
[^1]: publishes a `patch` release, for devDependencies use `internal`
[^2]: will not publish a new version
### Test Plan
1. Use firefox on desktop with a touch screen.
2. Check that you can still use cursor chat (when in a shared project).
- [ ] Unit Tests
- [ ] End to end tests
### Release Notes
- Fixed firefox not being able to use cursor chat when using a touch
screen on desktop.
This PR adds the `ScribbleManager` to the exports from `@tldraw/editor`.
### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Release Notes
- [@tldraw/tldraw] Export `ScribbleManager`
This PR adds a `meta` property to shapes and other records.
It adds it to:
- asset
- camera
- document
- instance
- instancePageState
- instancePresence
- page
- pointer
- rootShape
## Setting meta
This data can generally be added wherever you would normally update the
corresponding record.
An exception exists for shapes, which can be updated using a partial of
the `meta` in the same way that we update shapes with a partial of
`props`.
```ts
this.updateShapes([{
id: myShape.id,
type: "geo",
meta: {
nemesis: "steve",
special: true
}
])
```
## `Editor.getInitialMetaForShape`
The `Editor.getInitialMetaForShape` method is kind of a hack to set the
initial meta property for newly created shapes. You can set it
externally. Escape hatch!
