This PR makes a small improvement to the way we measure distances.
(Often we measure distances multiple times per frame per shape on the
screen). In many cases, we compare a minimum distance. This makes those
checks faster by avoiding a square root.
### Change Type
- [x] `sdk` — Changes the tldraw SDK
- [x] `improvement` — Improving existing features
### Release Notes
- Improve performance of minimum distance checks.

I think we should go with the `display: none` + showing the skeleteon.
The way it works is:
- We now add a sibling to the shape wrapper div which serves as the
skeleton for the culled shapes.
- Only one of the two divs (shape wrapper and skeleton div) is
displayed. The other one is using `display: none` to improve
performance.

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.
We allowed the users to customize pretty much all of our components, but
not the `DebugPanel`. We had overrides for `DebugMenu` which is
displayed inside the panel, but not for the panel itself.
I guess it makes sense to allow users to override both?

## 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

The `title` attribute is currently missing in production. It was using
`title` when it should have been using `titleStr`
This also nixes the `title` attribute which is used just twice in the
codebase — probably not necessary to have a different title/label but
lemme know if you disagree.
Adds this behavior back in:

This PR fixes an issue where events happening on tick were not batched.
We were listening to the `tick` event directly from the state node,
rather than passing the event into the state chart at the top. This
meant that it was bypassing the regular state chart rules, which was
what got me looking at this; but then I noticed that we also weren't
batching the changes, either. This causes computed stuff to re-compute
after each atom is updated within the `onTick` handler, which can be a
LOT.

### Test Plan
1. Use the style panel
2. Change the them
When we went from overrides-based to component based UI customisation
APIs, we didn't do the toolbar because it had some significant extra
complexity around overflowing the contents of the menu into the
dropdown. This is really hard to do at render-time with react - you
can't introspect what a component will return to move some of it into an
overflow.
Instead, this diff runs that logic in a `useLayoutEffect` - we render
all the items into both the main toolbar and the overflow menu, then in
the effect (or if the rendered components change) we use CSS to remove
the items we don't need, check which was last active, etc. Originally, I
wasn't really into this approach - but i've actually found it to work
super well and be very reliable.

This PR:
- adds the export all menu items to the main menu
- removes the export all menu items from the dotcom menus
- removes the shape menu and reverts several changes from
https://github.com/tldraw/tldraw/pull/2782. This was not properly
reviewed (I thought it was a PR about hiding / showing menu items).
- fixes a bug with exporting (exporting JSON was not working when the
user had no selected shapes)
- fixes a bug that would prevent "flip shapes" from appearing in the
menu
- prevents export / copy actions from running if there are no shapes on
the page
- allows export / copy actions to default to all shapes on the page if
no shapes are selected
These changes have not been released in the dotcom yet. There's will be
some thrash in the APIs.
# Menu philosophy
In the menu, the **edit** submenu relates to undo/redo, plus the user's
current selection.
Menu items that relate to specific to certain shapes are hidden when not
available.
Menu items that relate to all shapes are disabled when not available.

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.

- re-orders to be the normative New / Open / Save order — we shouldn't
be messing with this conventional ordering
- removes the "Don't ask again" from New/Open dialogs because they're

offer users a loaded footgun! :P
- makes File menu be part of the default menu — it's presence is
glaringly missing for regular development
- along with that, make the pieces of that menu available as lego pieces
to use - it can't just be `DefaultMainMenuContent`, all or nothing,
forcing downstream users to import everything from scratch

- Dev: Made default dialogs work better when used in small components.
In #2856, we moved changed line handles into an array of points. This
introduced an issue where some concurrent operations wouldn't work
because they array indexes change. We need some sort of stable way of
referring to these points. Our existing fractional indexing system is a
good fit.
In this version, instead of making the points be a map from index to
x/y, we make the points be a map from id (the index) to
x/y/index/id(also index). This is "kinda silly" (steve's words) but
might be more familiar to devs who are expecting maps to be keyed on IDs
rather than anything else.

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 |

| 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`
Adds the ability to change document names in the top center part of the
UI. This mostly brings back the functionality we already had in the
past.
This is basically a port of what @SomeHats did a while back. I changed
the dropdown options and removed some of the things (we are not dealing
with network requests directly so some of that logic did not apply any
longer). We did have autosave back then, not sure if we want to bring
that back?
Changes the `exportAs` api, thus braking.

### Test Plan
1. Top center should now show a new UI element. It has a dropdown with a
few actions.
2. Double clicking the name should also start editing it.
3. The name should also be respected when exporting things. Not if you
select some shapes or a frame. In that case we still use the old names.
But if you don't have anything selected and then export / save a project
it should have the document name.

### Release Notes
- Allow users to name their documents.
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.

Currently, geo shapes have slightly janky handle-snapping: they snap to
label geometry (even though its invisible) and because they extend from
`BaseBoxShapeUtil` they snap to the corners of their bounding box (even
if that's not where the actual shape is).
With this PR, we no longer snap to labels, and we snap to the actual
vertices of the geo shape rather than its bounding points.

### Change Type
- [x] `minor` — New feature
### Test Plan
- [x] Unit Tests
### Release Notes
- You can now snap the handles of lines to the corners of rectangles,
stars, triangles, etc.
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)

### Release Notes
- Line handles
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.
# Progress
- [x] Context menu
- [x] Main menu
- [x] Zoom menu
- [x] Help menu
- [x] Actions menu
- [x] Keyboard shortcuts menu
- [x] Quick actions in main menu? (new)
- [x] Helper buttons? (new)
- [x] Debug Menu
And potentially
- [x] Toolbar
- [x] Style menu
- [ ] Share zone
- [x] Navigation zone
- [ ] Other zones
### Change Type
- [x] `major` — Breaking change
### Test Plan
1. use the context menu
2. use the custom context menu example
3. use cursor chat in the context menu
- [x] Unit Tests
- [ ] End to end tests
### Release Notes
- Add a brief release note for your PR here.
Currently, only the end handles of the line tool snap. It should be all
of them.
Line handles work kind of weirdly at the moment: instead of just storing
the positions, we store full `TLHandle` objects complete with IDs,
`canSnap`/`canBind` properties, etc. Currently, all the handles get
written to the store with `canSnap: false`, when really it should be up
to the shape util to decide which handles are snappable.
This diff replaces the current handles map (from arbitrary ID to
`TLHandle`) with just the data we need: a map from index to x/y. The
extra information that the `Editor` needs for `TLHandle` is hydrated at
runtime (with `canSnap` set to `true` this time!)
Fixes TLD-2200

### Change Type
- [x] `major` — Breaking change
[^1]: publishes a `patch` release, for devDependencies use `internal`
[^2]: will not publish a new version
### Test Plan
1. Create a funky line shape on tldraw.com
2. Paste it into staging and make sure it comes across ok
3. Make some funky line shape in staging - make sure you use dragging,
mid-point creation, and shift-clicking
- [x] Unit Tests
### Release Notes
- Simplify the contents of `TLLineShape.props.handles`
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.

### Change Type
- [x] `patch` — Bug fix
### Test Plan
1. Mostly relying on unit & end to end tests here - no user facing
changes.
- [x] Unit Tests
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

Local images (like in our Local images example) could not be exported as
svg. We need to base64 encode them, but our check only matched images
with a `http` prefix, which local images like `/tldraw.png` don't have.

Improves duplication. It will now remember the offset and shapes of your
`alt + drag` duplication and use that if you use the duplicate action
immediately after this.

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.

### Test Plan
1. For arrow in [straightArrow, curvedArrow] test the following:
a. Label in the middle
b. Label at both ends of the arrow
c. Test arrows in different directions
d. Rotating the endpoints and seeing that the label stays at the end of
the arrow at a fixed width.
e. Test different stroke widths.
f. Test with different arrowheads.
2. Also, test arcs that are more circle like than arc-like.
- [x] Unit Tests
- [ ] End to end tests
### Release Notes
- Adds ability to change label position on arrows.
