What and why

The Live Paint Bucket had no double-click or triple-click: every click painted the one face or edge under the pointer. The help page (Paint with the Live Paint Bucket tool) describes four multi-click gestures: a double-click on a face spreads the fill into neighboring faces wherever the edge between them has no stroke, a triple-click on a face fills every face that has the clicked face's color, a double-click on an edge spreads the stroke along the connected edges of the same color, and a triple-click on an edge paints every edge of that color. The keyboard shortcuts page lists the double-click with the bucket as filling across unstroked edges into neighboring faces. The pages do not say which faces and edges count as joined or how paints are compared; those rules below are VectorCraft's own.

  • livePaint.fill and livePaint.strokeEdge take scope: "one" (the default, today's behavior), "connected" or "samePaint", and match, the paint compared (default: the face's fill or the stroke paint the edge draws with). Both replies add count, the number of faces or edges the call reaches, including those that already had the paint. Faces and edges that already have the paint (and the width) are left as they are, and when every one reached has it, no undo step is recorded. A bad scope or match is an error and changes nothing, and livePaint.fill refuses a scope other than "one" with a drag's points.
  • On a face, connected fills the face and every face reached across edges that draw no stroke (an edge that is hidden or fully transparent, or whose strokes are each hidden, without paint, 0 pt wide or fully transparent); a stroked edge, a hidden face, a gap that Gap Detection closes and the group's outside stop it. samePaint fills every face of the group whose fill is match, joined or not. Paints match when they are equal as the document stores them. The flood and the edge walk use the shared helpers Live Paint Selection uses since Live Paint: a Live Paint Selection double-click selects the connected faces or edges #7342 (flood_faces, connected_edges and lp_stroke_paint in crates/tools/src/builder/lookup.rs).
  • On an edge, connected paints the edge and the edges joined to it end to end (within 0.0001 pt) that draw with the stroke paint match, and samePaint paints every edge of the group that draws with that stroke paint. An edge draws with the paint of its topmost stroke that is shown, with paint, above 0 pt and not fully transparent. The stroke weight is not compared. Hidden faces and edges are not painted.
  • livePaint.strokeEdge paints an edge's topmost stroke that is shown, and adds a stroke above the others when every stroke is hidden or there is none. Before, a click wrote the paint into the topmost stroke even when that stroke was hidden, so the edge kept drawing its old paint.
  • The bucket (crates/tools/src/builder/live_paint.rs) sends scope: "connected" on a double-click and "samePaint" on a triple-click. Shift and the Paint Fills and Paint Strokes options choose a face or an edge as for a click. With Alt held, or with Cmd/Ctrl held (whose presses go to the selection tool Cmd lends), a multi-click paints nothing. Each click paints as it arrives, as its own undo step. For a triple-click, and for a double-click on an edge, the tool sends as match the paint the part had before the first of the clicks that painted it, or before the double-click when the triple-click's double-click reached it. A first click that made the Live Paint group from the selected paths counts when the face it filled is the clicked face. A double-click on a face sends no match.
  • With Space held for the view tools (mods.space), the bucket paints nothing on a press, a double-click or a triple-click, and outlines no face or edge. In the app a press with Space held pans, zooms or rotates the view; through ui.pointer and pointer_gesture such a press painted before.
  • PointerKind::TripleClick is new (crates/tools/src/input.rs). The canvas sends it on egui's triple-click unless a modal dialog is open, as for a double-click, and ui.pointer and pointer_gesture take tripleclick. The other tools ignore it.
  • docs/mcp.md, docs/control-protocol.md and the params text of both commands describe the new parameters and gestures, and docs/target-app-parity.md has one line for the feature. No user-visible string changed.

A double-click with the bucket, which painted the clicked face or edge twice, now also paints the faces or edges the gesture reaches, and a click on an edge whose top stroke is hidden now paints the stroke that is shown.

How it was tested

New tests, each failing without the change:

  • live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_across_unstroked_edges (crates/engine/src/tests/build.rs): in a row of four faces, the flood fills three across unstroked edges as one undo step and stops at a stroked edge; a hidden face is not filled and stops it; the tool's two clicks and double-click do the same.
  • live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_curved_and_narrow_faces: two overlapping circles (all 3 faces reached across curved edges) and a face 0.012 pt wide.
  • live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_across_hidden_edges_and_past_gaps: hidden edges are crossed; a Gap Detection gap stops the flood, and two faces a gap parts along one edge segment are not joined through it.
  • live_paint_bucket_triple_click_fills_every_face_of_the_same_fill: faces of the same fill are filled whether joined or not, and others are left.
  • live_paint_bucket_triple_click_after_making_the_group_matches_the_made_fill: a triple-click whose first click makes the group matches the fill the made face took.
  • live_paint_bucket_double_and_triple_click_paint_joined_and_same_stroke_edges: joined edges of the same stroke paint, then every edge of that stroke paint.
  • live_paint_bucket_scopes_follow_the_stroke_an_edge_draws: a fully transparent edge and an edge with its stroke hidden let a flood across, and the edge scopes, connected included, compare the stroke paint each edge draws with.
  • live_paint_stroke_edge_paints_the_shown_stroke: an edge drawing red under a hidden stroke, and an edge whose strokes are all hidden, draw the new paint after a click; a second click records no undo step.
  • live_paint_scope_and_match_are_checked: a bad scope or match, and scope with points, are errors that change nothing.
  • live_paint_scoped_fill_and_stroke_skip_parts_with_the_paint: a samePaint fill or stroke where every face or edge reached has the paint records no undo step; one where only one face lacks it is one undo step.
  • live_paint_bucket_cmd_double_and_triple_click_paint_nothing: Cmd clicks, double-click and triple-click through the session leave every fill as it was.
  • live_paint_selection_triple_click_adds_nothing_to_its_clicks: Live Paint Selection takes no action on the new triple-click.
  • bucket_double_and_triple_click_widen_what_a_click_paints (crates/tools/src/builder/tests.rs): the commands and match the tool sends for double and triple clicks, with Shift, Alt, Cmd, Space, both options off and a click before the triple-click's own three.
  • bucket_triple_click_after_making_the_group_on_another_face_matches_its_own_face and bucket_triple_click_with_a_click_on_another_face_between_matches_the_first_fill: which press's paint a triple-click matches.
  • bucket_multi_click_on_an_edge_matches_the_paint_it_draws: on a hidden or fully transparent edge, a double-click or triple-click matches no paint.
  • bucket_triple_click_on_a_face_the_double_click_flooded_matches_its_earlier_fill: a third click on a face the double-click flooded matches that face's earlier fill.
  • bucket_highlights_nothing_with_space_held: no face or edge is outlined with Space held.
  • tests::livepaint::a_triple_click_fills_every_face_of_the_same_fill and clicks_with_space_held_paint_nothing (crates/mcp/src/tests/livepaint.rs): a pointer_gesture triple-click, and clicks with mods.space, through the MCP route.

The canvas's triple_clicked() path in crates/ui-egui/src/canvas/input.rs is not covered by a test, since it needs a real egui input frame; the control route is covered by the MCP tests.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Live Paint now supports single-item, connected, and matching-paint scopes for filling faces and painting edges. Results include a count of targeted parts.
    • Double-click applies paint to connected faces or edges; triple-click applies it to matching-paint parts. Holding Space suppresses Live Paint actions and hover highlights.
    • Pointer gestures now support triple-click input.
  • Documentation
    • Updated control and Live Paint guides to describe gesture ordering, scopes, paint matching, and result counts.

…paints the same paint

With the Live Paint Bucket, a double-click on a face fills it and every
face reached across edges that are hidden or draw no stroke; a stroked
edge, a hidden face and a Gap Detection gap stop it. On an edge, a
double-click paints the edges joined to it end to end with the same
stroke paint. A triple-click fills every face of the group with the
clicked face's fill, or paints every edge with the clicked edge's
stroke. Shift and the Paint Fills and Paint Strokes options choose a
face or an edge as for a click; Alt held paints nothing.

- livePaint.fill and livePaint.strokeEdge take scope ("one", the
  default, "connected" or "samePaint") and match, the paint compared,
  and reply with count. A bad scope or match is an error, and scope
  with a drag's points is refused.
- Each click of a double-click or triple-click paints as it arrives,
  as its own undo step. For a triple-click, and for a double-click on
  an edge, the tool sends as match the paint the face or edge had
  before the first of those clicks, including a first click that makes
  the Live Paint group from the selected paths. A double-click on a
  face sends no match.
- PointerKind::TripleClick is new: the canvas sends it on egui's
  triple-click unless a modal dialog is open, as for a double-click,
  and ui.pointer and pointer_gesture take "tripleclick".

Walkthrough

Live Paint commands now support single, connected, and same-paint scopes for faces and edges. The Bucket maps double-clicks and triple-clicks to scoped operations. UI and MCP pointer handling now accepts triple-click events.

Changes: Live Paint Multi-Click

Layer / File(s) Summary
Scoped Live Paint commands
crates/engine/src/cmd/buildcmds.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/buildcmds/live_paint.rs, crates/engine/src/tests/build.rs
Fill and edge commands accept one, connected, or samePaint scopes, with matching paint where supported. Replies include a count of targeted parts. Tests cover target selection, no-op behavior, and invalid options.
Bucket multi-click behavior
crates/tools/src/builder/live_paint.rs, crates/tools/src/builder/tests.rs, crates/tools/src/builder/lookup.rs, crates/tools/src/builder.rs, docs/target-app-parity.md, docs/mcp.md, crates/mcp/src/tests/livepaint.rs
The Bucket records recent targets and their prior paint. Double-click requests connected painting, and triple-click requests same-paint painting. Tests cover click history, modifiers, and target matching.
Triple-click event routing
crates/tools/src/input.rs, crates/ui-egui/src/canvas/input.rs, crates/ui-egui/src/control.rs, crates/mcp/src/*, crates/tools/src/addons/*, crates/engine/src/tooling.rs, crates/tools/src/*, docs/control-protocol.md, docs/mcp.md
The UI and MCP interfaces accept tripleclick and dispatch it as PointerKind::TripleClick. Other tools handle the event without actions. Protocol documentation defines the event order.

Merge Risk: Low · up to 67fd1

Live Paint Bucket triple-click can miss same-paint faces after a drag released across an adjacent face. The parity doc also misdescribes triple-click matching and undo behavior, and its status line and revision history are not updated. These are narrow, low-impact issues that can be fixed or accepted before merge.

Explanation

The title names two behaviors, double-click flooding across unstroked edges and triple-click painting the same paint. The changeset adds both, along with the TripleClick pointer kind, scope/match parameters, and the Live Paint Bucket logic. The title is specific and matches the main change, though it omits the scope/match API and the Space and modifier rules.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template's two main sections, What and why and How it was tested, and it explains the Live Paint Bucket multi-click feature in detail, including the new scope and match parameters, TripleClick support, the Space and Cmd/Ctrl suppression rules, and the docs updates. It lists the new tests and the focused checks run on Linux. The template checklist is mostly complete. The author checked three items, but the cargo xtask ci item is left unchecked, and the description says it runs in CI. The description also reports one test failure from the objectives' comments, which conflicts with the pass result claimed in the description. The description does not address the template's clean-room or asset items beyond checking them, so those are accepted as author attestations.

livePaint.fill's description listed "not with points" as its own entry, which
the params parser reads as a parameter name, so every_description_parses
failed. The note now sits inside the samePaint value's parentheses and says
that "connected" and "samePaint" are refused with points, as lp_fill does.

Object › Live Paint › Merge adds the other selected paths and Live Paint groups to the bottom selected Live Paint group ([Live Paint groups](https://web.archive.org/web/20241230205225/https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/live-paint-groups.html)), which keeps its id, the paint of its faces and edges, and its name, lock, visibility, transparency, appearance, opacity mask and graphic style link. Object › Live Paint › Make with a Live Paint group selected, and a Live Paint Bucket click on a selected path beside a selected Live Paint group, add the paths to that group the same way. Make, Merge and the Live Paint Bucket take paths, compound paths and groups of them; with type, an image or another object among the selection they report that it has to be converted to paths first and change nothing, as type and raster images can't go into a Live Paint group directly ([Create Live Paint groups](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/paint-and-fill/learn-painting-basics/create-live-paint-groups.html)); before, such an object went among the group's hidden sources and vanished from the canvas. Evidence: `tests_build::live_paint_refuses_type_and_images_and_changes_nothing`.
With the Live Paint Bucket selected, Alt-click on vector art samples its fill, stroke and stroke weight into the paint defaults ([Paint with the Live Paint Bucket tool](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/paint-and-fill/learn-painting-basics/paint-with-the-live-paint-bucket-tool.html)). On a placed image it samples the image pixel as a solid fill with no stroke. Alt+Shift-click samples only the color under the pointer, including an intermediate gradient color or image pixels, into the active fill or stroke ([Default keyboard shortcuts](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/default-keyboard-shortcuts.html)). Neither click paints or changes the selection or selected art, and the next Bucket click paints with the sampled paint. Evidence: `tests_build::live_paint_bucket_alt_sample_paints_next_face_without_changing_selection`.
Double-clicking the Live Paint Bucket opens Live Paint Bucket Options ([Paint with the Live Paint Bucket tool](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/paint-and-fill/learn-painting-basics/paint-with-the-live-paint-bucket-tool.html)): Paint Fills (on) and Paint Strokes (off) set whether a click paints faces, edges or both, Highlight turns the outline of the face or edge under the pointer on or off, and Color and Width set it (red and 4 px by default). Faces are outlined at the Width and edges at half of it, as the page says faces are highlighted with a thick line and edges with a thin line. With both on, a click paints the edge within 4 px of the pointer, else the face, and Shift switches to Paint Fills only; with one on, Shift switches to the other. The options last across tool switches and are saved with the preferences (`tool.setOption {tool: "livePaintBucket"}`). Evidence: `builder::tests::{bucket_options_choose_what_a_click_paints, bucket_options_set_the_highlight, bucket_highlights_an_edge_thinner_than_a_face}`, `dialogs::live_paint_bucket::tests::double_clicking_the_tool_opens_its_options_and_ok_sets_them`.
Live Paint Bucket double-click and triple-click, as [the help page](https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/desktop/paint-and-fill/learn-painting-basics/paint-with-the-live-paint-bucket-tool.html) describes them: a double-click on a face fills it and the faces reached across edges that draw no stroke, and on an edge it paints the edges joined to it with the same stroke; a triple-click fills every face of the group with the face's fill, or paints every edge with the edge's stroke (`livePaint.fill` and `livePaint.strokeEdge` `{scope: "connected" | "samePaint", match?}`; `pointer_gesture` and `ui.pointer` take `tripleclick`). Each click paints as it arrives, as its own undo step, and the paint compared is the one the face or edge had before the first of its clicks. Which faces and edges join and which paints match are VectorCraft's own rules. Evidence: `tests_build::{live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_across_unstroked_edges, live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_curved_and_narrow_faces, live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_across_hidden_edges_and_past_gaps, live_paint_bucket_triple_click_fills_every_face_of_the_same_fill, live_paint_bucket_triple_click_after_making_the_group_matches_the_made_fill, live_paint_bucket_double_and_triple_click_paint_joined_and_same_stroke_edges, live_paint_scope_and_match_are_checked}`, `builder::tests::bucket_double_and_triple_click_widen_what_a_click_paints`, `tests::livepaint::a_triple_click_fills_every_face_of_the_same_fill` (MCP).

…w art skips open paths

- A face outline segment that runs along several edge segments (the
  face has no corner where a crossing line splits the edge) now joins
  the face to every edge segment it runs along, not only the one under
  its middle, so a double-click flood no longer stops there.
- The first click of a triple-click on selected paths, which makes the
  Live Paint group, takes the fill to match from the paths' closed
  subpaths only, as the group's faces do; an open path in front no
  longer gives the wrong fill.

52aec70 fixes two more cases:

  • Double-click: a face whose outline runs along an edge in one segment, while that edge is split where another line crosses it, now counts as lying along every piece of the edge, so the flood no longer stops there. Test: live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_along_edges_split_at_a_junction.
  • Triple-click whose first click makes the Live Paint group: the fill it matches now comes from closed subpaths only, as the group's faces do, so an open path in front no longer supplies the wrong fill. Test: bucket_triple_click_on_a_made_group_skips_open_paths.

Both tests fail without the fix. cargo fmt --all -- --check and cargo clippy -p vectorcraft-engine -p vectorcraft-tools --all-targets -- -D warnings are clean, and cargo test -p vectorcraft-engine -p vectorcraft-tools passes 8,038 tests (4 ignored) in 23 test binaries. The branch merges cleanly with main.

The test for a triple-click whose first click makes the group now also
builds the planar map from the same two paths and checks that the face
at the click takes its fill from the square. The doc comment of the
double-click flood names the three points it checks along each edge
segment.

  • bucket_triple_click_on_a_made_group_skips_open_paths now also builds the planar map from the same two paths and checks that the face at the click takes its fill from the square, the fill the tool matches.
  • The doc comment of flood_faces names the three points (a quarter, half and three quarters along) that it checks on each edge segment.

live_paint_bucket_double_click_floods_along_edges_split_at_a_junction fails with the midpoint-only match (2 faces filled, not 3) and passes with 52aec70. cargo fmt --all -- --check and cargo clippy -p vectorcraft-engine -p vectorcraft-tools --all-targets -- -D warnings are clean, and cargo test -p vectorcraft-engine -p vectorcraft-tools passes 8,038 tests (4 ignored) in 23 test binaries.

The branch now conflicts with main at 9fcfc81cc2 in lp_fill and lp_stroke_edge (crates/engine/src/cmd/buildcmds/live_paint.rs) and in their params text, after #7335.

…cks painted

A double-click or triple-click compares the paint the face or edge had
before the first of its last clicks that painted it. A first click that
made the Live Paint group counts only when the face it filled is that
face, so clicks that move from one face to another no longer match the
paint under the first click.

With Space held for the view tools, a press, a double-click or a
triple-click with the Live Paint Bucket paints nothing.

The ui.pointer row in docs/control-protocol.md escapes the pipes in its
parameters cell, so the table keeps three columns.

Merged main at 9fcfc81cc2 (33319b2), resolving the conflicts with #7335 in livePaint.fill and livePaint.strokeEdge: a double-click or triple-click skips the faces or edges that already have the paint, records no undo step when all of them do, and replies with count, the faces or edges it reaches. f59381a fixes three CodeRabbit findings. The branch merges cleanly with main.

…gain

A triple-click whose clicks land on a face, another face, then the first
face again matched the fill the first click gave that face. It now
matches the fill the face had before the first click that painted it, as
the tool's doc comment and docs/mcp.md say.

- With Space held for the view tools, the Live Paint Bucket outlines no
  face or edge, as a press there paints nothing.
- A scoped livePaint.fill or livePaint.strokeEdge where every face or
  edge reached already has the paint records no undo step; a test covers
  it, and one where only some faces need the paint.
- An MCP test drives the bucket through ui.pointer with mods.space.
- The tool's doc comment and the progress line state the rule.
… nothing

With Cmd (Ctrl) held, the Bucket's presses go to the selection tool Cmd
lends, but the double-click and triple-click that follow reached the
Bucket and painted. They now paint nothing, as with Alt.

Pushed three commits:

  • bc2caaaa37: a triple-click whose clicks land on a face, another face, then the first face again now matches the fill the face had before the first click that painted it, as docs/mcp.md says. With Space held, the bucket also outlines no face or edge. New tests cover this, the scoped livePaint.fill and livePaint.strokeEdge calls where every face or edge reached already has the paint (no undo step), and clicks with mods.space through pointer_gesture.
  • 9644811965: merges main at 446bf59bc2 (Live Paint Bucket: Cursor Swatch Preview and arrow keys pick swatches #7265). The conflicts in crates/tools/src/builder/live_paint.rs, crates/tools/src/builder/tests.rs, docs/mcp.md and docs/target-app-parity.md were resolved keeping both sides; the swatch preview now reads the modifiers the bucket stores for the pointer.
  • ce3445d106: with Cmd/Ctrl held, the bucket's presses go to the lent selection tool, and the double-click or triple-click that follows now paints nothing.

The branch merges cleanly with main at 1e4e3534f5. The body lists the checks and counts.

# Conflicts:
#	crates/tools/src/builder/live_paint.rs
main's Live Paint Selection double-click (storytold#7342) replaced the tool's
catch-all pointer arm with an explicit DoubleClick arm, so the
TripleClick kind this branch adds left the match non-exhaustive. The
tool now takes no action on TripleClick: the third click's press and
release already select what a click selects, as before the merge.

The merge also took main's import list in the engine's Live Paint
commands, which no longer named Paint while this branch's Merge code
still uses it; Paint is imported again.
The Live Paint Bucket's connected and samePaint scopes kept their own
copies of the face flood and the edge walk. They read an edge's stored
stroke paint, so an edge that is fully transparent or whose stroke is
hidden stopped a face flood and matched as stroked. The face flood also
required outlines within 0.0001 pt of an edge, which a curved face that
the planar map refits can miss.

The engine now calls the shared flood_faces and connected_edges that
Live Paint Selection uses (storytold#7342), and compares edges by lp_stroke_paint,
the paint of the topmost stroke that draws. The tool records that same
paint as the match for a double-click or triple-click on an edge. The
params text and docs/mcp.md describe the drawn stroke paint.
livePaint.strokeEdge wrote the paint and weight into an edge's topmost
stroke even when that stroke was hidden. An edge whose hidden top stroke
sat over a drawn one kept drawing its old paint, and since the edge
scopes now match the paint an edge draws, a samePaint or connected
stroke reached such edges and changed nothing on screen. The command now
paints the topmost stroke that is shown, and adds a stroke above the
others when every stroke is hidden or there is none. The "nothing
changes" check reads the same stroke.

The doc comments of the scopes and of the press record describe the
drawn stroke paint, and the engine names Paint through its parent module
instead of in the import list. Live Paint Selection's comment on a
triple-click states that the tool takes no action on it.

New tests cover the edge the tool matches on a multi-click over a hidden
or fully transparent edge, the connected edge scope through transparent
and hidden edges, and painting the shown stroke.
When the third click of a triple-click landed on a face or edge that
the double-click before it had painted (a neighbor the flood or the edge
walk reached), the triple-click sent that part's new paint as match,
since only the clicked part's paint was recorded. The bucket now records
the fill or drawn stroke paint of every other part a double-click
reaches, and a triple-click on one of them matches the paint it had
before the double-click. docs/mcp.md says so.

Merged main (1c4cc88, 0e6e7df with main at 107078a, then 67fd1cd with main at dafd993). Live Paint Selection takes no action on the new triple-click (69ce720). The bucket's scopes now use the shared flood_faces, connected_edges and lp_stroke_paint from #7342, so edges match by the stroke paint they draw, and a flood crosses fully transparent edges and edges with hidden strokes (7ef603d). livePaint.strokeEdge paints an edge's topmost shown stroke rather than a hidden one (f46e0ad). A triple-click on a face or edge that its double-click reached matches the paint from before the double-click (c0d9c76).

Review comments at @crates/tools/src/builder/live_paint.rs:
- Line 553: Update the press-recording flow around self.note_part(f, false, p)
so it captures each face crossed by the press polyline, including the release
segment, before drag_fill changes its fill; preserve each face’s original fill
for later matching. Add an engine regression test for the sequence where a
release crosses from face A into adjacent face B and subsequent clicks complete
the triple-click, verifying the original matching faces are filled.

Review comments at @docs/target-app-parity.md:
- Line 1527: Revise the Live Paint Bucket undo statement so only clicks that
change paint create an undo step; clicks that paint nothing because all reached
parts already have the bucket paint must not imply an undo step. Keep the
surrounding click and scope behavior unchanged.
- Line 1527: Update the Live Paint Bucket triple-click description to
distinguish the pre-click paint used to decide which faces or edges match from
the bucket paint applied to them. Describe the matching rule for both faces and
edges, preserving that VectorCraft defines the specific matching behavior and
that each qualifying part receives the bucket’s paint.
