- New Action::Control routes a keytip to its ribbon control (popup/dropdown
open, checkbox toggle, button handler) instead of an engine command with
empty params. Fixes ALT+H FF/FS/N/H/H error boxes.
- Ribbon consumes a one-shot ui.keytip_invoke: font/size/number combos
converted to the popup pattern (ComboBox has no open_memory), fill/font
color menus force-open via SetOpenCommand, 100% zoom and Formula Bar run
their handlers.
- keytips.json: FF/FS/N/H/H -> control kind; View/Formulas/Data dialog
openers (WQ zoom, HFM format cells, HO*, MV, AWG, sparkline types) and
control WVF; MSP/HVP re-targeted; dropped 15 unreachable Home sub-items
and non-Excel HWS shrink-to-fit.
- View tab: badges on workbook views, gridlines/headings, formula bar.
- Generated suite: 399 tests incl control-kind arm; direct tests 18.
cargo xtask keytips now emits tests/keytips_generated.rs alongside the
table: one end-to-end test per sequence, asserting exactly what its
action does today. The generator probes the live engine catalog at
generation time (blank workbook, empty params), so each live command
asserts journaled / ran clean / surfaced its missing-params error;
pending asserts silence; dialogs assert the dialog opens; tabs assert
the ribbon switch; group levels assert the prefix stays armed.
- pending-but-landed targets get live assertions and a generation
warning (HWS home.shrinkToFit and MAA formulas.removeArrows had
landed since population - flipped to live)
- unreachable-sequence validation: any seq with a terminal prefix
entry is rejected (HCP dropped - HC Copy fires first)
- ENV_SENSITIVE list keeps the checked-in file byte-stable across
machines (review.spelling uses the system dictionary)
- sample_sequences_work_with_text_before_key covers IME text-first
event order for one representative of each action kind
- generated_test_count_matches_the_table pins the table size
518 ui-egui tests green; all 8 CI gates pass.
Population of keytips.json from the collected Excel Alt-sequence set:
- 408 curated entries: 10 tabs, 354 command binds (64 reserved pending,
290 live catalog commands), 2 dialog openers, 42 group levels.
- Bind-all policy: sequences whose command does not exist yet bind to the
canonical future id as Action::Pending -- badge shows, invocation is a
silent no-op until the command lands (ids from docs/parity-checklist).
- Group levels: 46 command entries that are strict prefixes of deeper
sequences were demoted to menu openers so the trie never fires early
(HV must not paste; it waits for the variant letter).
- Fire-immediately restores: HC Copy, HAN Accounting, FA Save As, FO Open,
FI Info. Unreachable legacy aliases (HCC, HANM, FA1, FAY3, FOC, FOO, FIP)
dropped: the parent fires first.
- ES stays a terminal dialog opener as in Excel: the A/F/T/V variants are
dialog mnemonics, not trie sequences.
- Escape pops one trie level and returns to the armed root at a single
letter; keytips.json is the single modifiable source; xtask keytips now
emits through rustfmt so --check is byte-stable.
- Tests: 99 pass (27 lib + 14 keytips + suite), all 8 CI gates green.
The sequence table is no longer hand-maintained Rust: keytips.json is the
single human-edited source (one line per sequence, grouped by tab, pending
reserves sequences for future commands), and `cargo xtask keytips`
regenerates keytip_table/generated.rs deterministically. `cargo xtask ci`
now fails if the generated table is stale.
- Action::Pending: reserved sequences show their badge and invoke silently
until the command exists (bind-all policy).
- Intermediate group levels are implicit: the matcher waits whenever a
pressed letter starts a deeper sequence; only terminal entries are
listed (two-letter units like Draw's "JI" work with no extra rows).
- First populated sequence beyond the legacy set: W,V,G toggles gridlines,
proven end-to-end by view_gridlines_sequence_runs_end_to_end.
