Typstry v0.3.0

Typstry v0.3.0 establishes the project’s new direction as a complex-script-first Typst writing environment, with Khmer as the first deeply supported language.

Highlights

• Replaced SVG preview injection with a virtualized PDF.js viewer, substantially reducing memory usage for long documents.
• Added detachable preview windows and improved docked-preview behavior.
• Added binary image previews with interactive viewing.
• Added pinned main-document support for multi-file projects.
• Added workspace ZIP export.
• Improved render-on-type, render-on-save, external file reload, zoom, and preview recovery.
• Improved Linux PDF rendering and release-build compatibility.
• Strengthened complex-script font fallback throughout the editor UI.
• Improved Khmer composition diagnostics, spellcheck revision handling, and autocomplete.
• Improved diagnostics with per-file tracking, separate error and warning counts, deduplication, and log filtering.
• Unsupported files can now be opened using an external application.
• Disabled the unfinished WYSIWYM editor while the code-based research workflow is stabilized.

Preview and synchronization

• PDF pages are rendered incrementally instead of keeping an entire SVG document mounted.
• Visible pages rerender at the appropriate resolution after zoom or display-scale changes.
• Obsolete render work is cancelled to reduce blank-page and zoom races.
• Inverse synchronization uses compiler source positions instead of unreliable PDF text matching.
• Preview failures now provide clearer developer diagnostics.
• External source changes can trigger preview updates without reopening the workspace.

Complex-script editing

• Added broader complex-script fallback-font coverage across editor surfaces.
• Improved incomplete Khmer composition detection.
• Prevented stale spellcheck results from clearing or remapping unrelated issues.
• Improved Typst syntax filtering for spellcheck and autocomplete.
• Added stronger editing-policy tests to protect Khmer behavior as additional scripts are introduced.

Project workflow

• Main files can be pinned as the full-document preview root.
• Included files remain part of the same project workflow.
• Workspace restoration and explorer refresh behavior have been improved.
• Temporary rendering files receive safer automatic cleanup.
• Typstry cache files remain isolated from normal workspace content.

Typstry v0.2.2

• Added script-aware editing policies with improved Khmer cursor movement, deletion, and composition boundaries.
• Added preview render-on-type and render-on-save modes.
• Improved preview toolbar, pane resizing, sidebar controls, and default layout restoration.
• Reduced startup time through lazy LSP, language-provider, and font initialization.
• Added Spellcheck/LSP/Developer log filtering and navigable unknown-word counts.
• Added persistent ignored words with informational blue underlines.
• Improved autocomplete dismissal and Khmer prefix spellcheck behavior.
• Improved Ctrl-hover links for complete #include and #import paths.
• Restricted spelling corrections to the context menu and disabled unreliable Khmer correction ranges.
• Renamed // @allow-preview to // @standalone-preview.
• Fixed assorted editor alignment, completion, and preview interaction issues.

Typstry v0.2.1

Bug fix release focused on live preview stability, release-build preview loading, and preview usability.

Fixes

• Fixed docked live preview failing to load in release builds.
• Fixed intercepted Tinymist preview resources failing to resolve from Typstry’s blob: preview iframe.
• Fixed Tinymist preview WASM loading by routing loopback preview resources through Typstry and synthesizing a valid WASM response when needed.
• Fixed preview WebSocket connection failures in the intercepted preview by proxying the Tinymist data-plane WebSocket with a valid loopback origin.
• Fixed a release-build preview startup issue caused by duplicate synthetic load events.
• Added explicit + and − zoom buttons to the live preview pane.
• Removed unreliable Ctrl + mouse wheel preview zoom handling.
• Preview zoom now uses Tinymist’s own keyboard zoom behavior.
• Added a visible zoom percentage indicator in the preview toolbar.
• Improved preview pane resizing responsiveness and avoided iframe pointer capture during resize.

Notes

This release keeps DOM-based inverse sync available in release builds while improving live preview reliability and interaction responsiveness.

Typstry v0.2.0

Typstry v0.2.0 is a major beta update focused on complex-script writing, Khmer language tooling, live preview reliability, and release readiness.

Highlights

• Improved live preview iframe handling and DOM interception for more accurate inverse sync.
• Added developer-mode preview/inverse-sync logging.
• Improved docked preview reliability in release builds.
• Added experimental Khmer render preparation setting, default off and hidden outside dev mode.
• Improved settings UI layout for language tools.
• Updated README into a release-focused landing page with direct download links.
• Added documentation pages for install, development, settings, roadmap, and troubleshooting.
• Bumped app version to v0.2.0.

Notes

Typstry remains beta software. Windows and Linux builds are the most actively tested. macOS builds are still experimental.

What’s New in v0.1.2

Tab & Workspace Management

• Temporary (Preview) Tabs: Opening files from the explorer now opens a temporary tab (shown with an italic name). Double-clicking, editing, or jumping to its outline headings will promote it to a permanent tab.
• Exit Protection for Unsaved Changes: If you have unsaved changes in any tabs, closing the window (via the titlebar, Alt+F4, or menu) will prompt for confirmation before exiting to prevent data loss.
• Tab Context Menus: Added right-click context menu options to Close and Close Others on editor tabs.
• Restart Workspace: Added a "Restart Workspace" action to the File menu to reload the compiler context on demand.

Advanced Code Navigation (LSP)

• Ctrl+Click Jump to Definition: Hold Ctrl (or Cmd on macOS) to underline variables, references, or functions and click to jump directly to their definitions.
• Fallback to References: If no direct definition is found, Ctrl+Click automatically jumps to the first usage reference.
• Robust LocationLink Parsing: Standardized the LSP client to handle both Location and LocationLink specifications, preventing crashes when jumping across files.

Outline & Preview Enhancements

• Recursive Outline Propagation: Outlines from #include or #import documents now recursively propagate to the main document outline, allowing cross-file navigation from the sidebar.
• Smart Preview Hiding: Hides rather than destroys persistent live-preview iframes when switching to temporary tabs (which use fast-path SVG preview). This fixes layout overlap and split-screen bugs.

Typography & Writable Examples

• Document Typography Rules: Added toolbar toggles to enable or disable Latin and complex-script typography rules independently.
• Consent-based Font Recommendations: Recommends installing compatible fonts only after script-detection and user consent.
• Bundled Writable Examples: Added an "Open Examples" welcome item that installs a writable playground of Unicode-focused documents and templates under the user's Documents directory.
