super_text_layout

• Improve right-to-left (RTL) text layout support.

• Upgrade attributed_text dependency to v0.4.1.

• Upgrade attributed_text dependency to v0.4.0 (forgot to do it in 0.1.16).

• [FEATURE] - Added support for inline images. Only minor changes needed in this package.
  • Selection boxes now take up the max vertical space - this will result in taller selection boxes.
  • Caret size/position always uses a downstream affinity. This was done to minimize the impact of Flutter bugs for inline widgets.
  • A couple classes were created as inline image placeholders. Any type of object can be used, but providing a couple defaults seemed reasonable.
  • Most of the relevant changes for inline widgets will happen in super_editor.
• [ADJUSTMENT] - Upgraded logging to v1.3.0.

• [FIX] - Fix layout error when text in SuperText is empty.

• [FIX] - Flutter was reporting 1px height different between empty text and non-empty text. We introduced a temporary hack fix to keep the reported height consistent until Flutter ships its own fix.

• [FIX] - Caret size is as expected when placed at end of paragraph with preceding space. This bug was caused by Flutter and we introduced a temporary hack to solve it until Flutter ships its own fix.

• Package metadata update - no functional changes.

• [BREAKING] - Replaced singular UnderlineStyle in TextUnderlineLayer with a styler per underline (to support composing, spelling errors, and grammar errors).
• Text selection boxes now support rounded corners.
• Adjusted the precise positioning of text selection rectangles.

• FillWidthIfConstrained uses ancestor constraints instead of ancestor size.
• Changed getLineHeightAtPosition and getCharacterBox to both use RenderParagraph.getFullHeightForCaret().
• Nudged the caret offset so that the caret straddles its desired location, instead of sitting completely to the right of it.
• Resolved some lint complaints.

• [FIX] - BlinkController.isBlinking now accounts for the use of Timers in addition to Tickers.
• [FIX] - Changing textAlign for SuperText correctly repositions carets, handles, and selection boxes for the newly aligned text.
• [FIX] - TextLayoutCaret now respects the controller given to the widget, instead of ignoring it.
• TextLayout.getBoxesForSelection() now allows you to choose between tight and max box sizes for each character box.
  • Related: underlines are now continuous instead of being broken between characters.

• Added TextUnderlineLayer to draw underlines beneath text.
• Added collection dependency.

• Added isBlinking property to BlinkController.

• Explicitly upgraded to Dart 3 support.
• Bumped attributed_text dependency to 0.2.2.

The super_text_layout package is extracted from super_editor

• Introduces SuperText widget to render text with layers above and beneath the text
• Introduces SuperTextWithSelection to easily paint text with traditional user selections, which replaces previous uses of SuperSelectableText from earlier super_editor work
