What and why

The Character panel had Insert Aki (#6942) but no Tsume. The help page describes Tsume as a Character panel option shown with the East Asian options ("If you don’t see the Insert Aki or Tsume options, select Show East Asian Options in the Type preferences.") and says a higher Tsume percentage narrows the space around the selected characters (Format East Asian characters). The archived scripting reference describes it as "The percentage of space reduction around a Japanese character." (scripting reference).

The pages do not give the range, the default or how the space is measured. These are VectorCraft's own rules: the value is a percentage from 0 to 100, 0 by default, and it is the share of the blank space on each side of a character's ink, inside the character's own width, that is taken away. 50 halves that space and 100 sets the ink edge to edge; the glyph is not scaled.

  • CharStyle::tsume (crates/doc), saved as tsume only when not 0. A file holding a value outside the range, in a run or a character style, opens with the nearer end, and a value that is not a number opens as 0.
  • text.setFormat and text.setRangeStyle {tsume} set it in one undo step, and a call that gives the characters the value they already have records none. Both refuse a value that is not a number with the existing `tsume` must be a number message. charStyle.new, charStyle.setAttrs and charStyle.edit take it too. All five commands refuse a value outside 0 to 100 with the existing `tsume` must be from 0 to 100 message.
  • Layout (crates/text/src/shape.rs): each shaping cluster's blank space beside its ink is measured from the glyph outlines and the cluster's width before tracking, kerning and Insert Aki; the font's pair kerning is left out of that width. A ligature or a letter with its marks takes its first character's value. A character without ink, such as a space, keeps its width. Tracking, kerning and Insert Aki are added after Tsume, and justification keeps it. Tsume applies to horizontal type; vertical type keeps its spacing.
  • SVG export places each character that Tsume moves, and writes type on a path with Tsume as outlines with a warning that names Tsume.
  • The Character panel shows a Tsume field (%, with 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 in its menu) on its own row under Insert Aki when Show East Asian Options is on; it is blank where the selected characters differ, a value typed past 100 sets 100, and Reset Panel sets it to 0. Character Style Options › Advanced Character Formats has the same field; an explicit 0 stays distinct from unset.
  • "Tsume" has a row in every catalog. docs/mcp.md has a Tsume section after Insert Aki and lists tsume among the charStyleOptions fields, and docs/target-app-parity.md has one line next to the Insert Aki line.

.ai import and export do not read or write Tsume: no public document names its key in the file.

How it was tested

New tests, each failing without the change unless noted:

  • crates/text/src/tests/tsume.rs: tsume_takes_its_share_of_the_space_beside_the_ink, zero_out_of_range_and_spaces_keep_the_layout, a_letter_with_its_mark_takes_the_tsume_of_the_letter, justification_keeps_the_tsume, tracking_and_insert_aki_are_added_after_the_tsume and the_font_kerning_is_added_after_the_tsume. vertical_type_keeps_its_spacing checks that vertical type is unchanged, so it passes with or without the change.
  • tsume_is_saved_only_when_set_and_kept_in_range (crates/doc/src/text/tests.rs).
  • tsume_is_a_character_attribute (crates/engine/src/cmd/typecmd/area_tests.rs); character_style_dimensions_are_checked_before_a_definition_changes also checks Tsume's range now.
  • tsume_places_each_moved_character (crates/svg/tests/it/text_layout.rs).
  • tsume_field_shows_with_the_east_asian_options (crates/ui-egui/src/panels/character/tests.rs) and tsume_field_shows_sets_resets_and_commits (crates/ui-egui/src/dialogs/char_style_options.rs).

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added Tsume, a 0–100% character-format option that tightens horizontal glyph spacing, with controls in the Character panel and Advanced Character Formats.
    • Added Tsume support to text formatting commands and saved character styles.
    • Text on a path with Tsume is exported as outlines rather than live text.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Tsume values are kept within the supported range, with invalid values handled safely.

Character panel > Tsume, shown with Show East Asian Options, takes away a
percentage of the blank space on each side of a character's ink, inside
its own width, in horizontal type. The value is from 0 to 100, 0 by
default. 50 halves that space and 100 sets the ink against the
characters before and after it; the glyph keeps its shape. A character
without ink, such as a space, keeps its width, and a ligature or a
letter with its marks takes the value of its first character. The
font's pair kerning, tracking, manual kerning and Insert Aki are added
after it, and justification keeps it. Vertical type keeps its spacing.

- text.setFormat and text.setRangeStyle take `tsume`; a value that is
  not a number or is outside 0 to 100 is refused, naming the key.
  Character styles carry it, and a file holding a value outside the
  range opens with the nearer end.
- The Character panel's Tsume field has 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 in its
  menu, and Reset Panel sets it to 0. Character Style Options shows it
  in Advanced Character Formats.
- Live SVG text places each character Tsume moves, and type on a path
  with Tsume is written as outlines.

Walkthrough

This change adds Tsume as a character-style attribute with a 0–100 range. Formatting commands and editor controls can set it, text shaping applies it to horizontal glyph clusters, and SVG export handles Tsume-adjusted text.

Changes: Tsume character formatting

Layer / File(s) Summary
Character-style contract and persistence
crates/doc/src/text/char_style.rs, crates/doc/src/text.rs, crates/doc/src/text/object.rs, crates/doc/src/text/tabs_lists.rs, crates/doc/src/text/tests.rs
Adds tsume and MAX_TSUME to the character-style model. Defaults to zero, omits zero from serialized data, clamps values to the supported range, and includes the value in document normalization.
Formatting commands and style validation
crates/engine/src/cmd/panelcmds.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/textedit.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/textstyles.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/textstyles/tests.rs, crates/engine/src/cmd/typecmd/area_tests.rs
Adds Tsume to text.setFormat, text.setRangeStyle, and character-style attributes. Validates values and adds command, persistence, and undo/redo coverage.
Horizontal shaping and layout tests
crates/text/src/shape.rs, crates/text/src/harakat.rs, crates/text/src/tests.rs, crates/text/src/tests/tsume.rs
Applies Tsume to visible horizontal clusters using ink bounds and unkerned advances. Tests cover spacing interactions, combining marks, justification, and vertical text.
Character style controls and reset
crates/ui-egui/src/panels/character.rs, crates/ui-egui/src/panels/character/tests.rs, crates/ui-egui/src/dialogs/char_style_options.rs
Adds Tsume percentage fields and presets to the Character panel and Advanced Character Formats dialog. Includes clamping, reset behavior, and UI tests.
SVG export and documentation
crates/svg/src/export/text.rs, crates/svg/tests/it/text_layout.rs, docs/mcp.md, docs/target-app-parity.md
Segments Tsume-adjusted live text and exports type on a path with nonzero Tsume as outlines with a warning. Adds export tests and documentation.

Merge Risk: Low · previous review ae055

Tsume works for horizontal text and is validated and saved correctly. With Optical kerning on, Latin pairs may get some of the removed space back. The progress document's status line and revision history also need updating. Neither is likely to break users, so the change is mergeable once they are addressed or accepted.

Explanation

The title names Tsume and its effect on the space around each character's ink, which matches the main change: a new horizontal-spacing character attribute. It uses the 'Type:' prefix, which is a minor style point and does not affect relevance. The title is specific and clear.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the template's 'What and why' and 'How it was tested' sections, and it explains the behavior, range, default, measurement rules, and affected surfaces in detail. The template's checklist is kept, and three items are ticked with their verification stated. The first checklist item (cargo xtask ci passes) is left unticked, and the description says CI runs but does not claim it passes. The description also reports one failing i18n test that also fails on main. These gaps are reported, but the description is mostly complete.

- Line 1816: Establish the intended precedence between Tsume and Optical kerning
in optical_pairs; if Tsume should win, skip the Optical correction for eligible
pairs when either glyph’s run has Tsume, so optical_pairs does not undo spacing
applied by tighten. Preserve Optical behavior for pairs without Tsume.
