Changelog

2.3.0

🚀 Features

• Multi-Media & Attachments System:

  • Full native support for Audio (AudioNode, BlockType.audio), Video (VideoNode, BlockType.video), and Document (DocumentNode, BlockType.document) blocks with pure Flutter rendering and zero WebViews.
  • Pluggable media player builders: audioBuilder and videoBuilder in SmartEditorSettings allow developers to connect their preferred audio/video packages (e.g. audioplayers, just_audio, video_player, chewie) or rely on built-in native cards.
  • Unified attachment dialog (SmartAttachmentDialog) and bottom sheet (SmartAttachmentBottomSheet) supporting Images, Videos, Audio, and Documents with type-specific actions, device picking delegates (imagePickerDelegate, videoPickerDelegate, audioPickerDelegate, filePickerDelegate), remote URL import, and captions.
  • Full HTML round-trip parsing and serialization for <audio>, <video>, and <a data-attachment="document"> tags.
  • Complete programmatic APIs on SmartEditorController (insertAudio, insertVideo, insertDocument, updateAttachment, removeAttachment).

• Expandable Toolbar & UX Refinements:

  • Redesigned SmartToolbarType.expandable: Renders only 1 toolbar at a time (collapsed horizontal scroll with trailing toggle arrow, or expanded multi-line wrap with top-right collapse arrow) without duplicate toolbar rendering.
  • Cleaned up separators: Eliminated orphan/trailing separators in wrapped layouts and next to expand/collapse toggle buttons.
  • Granular SmartInsertButtons configuration: Enable or disable specific attachment types (image, video, audio, document), with direct single-dialog opening when only one attachment type is enabled.

🛠️ Bug Fixes & Stability

• Flex Layout Hierarchy: Corrected Flexible and ConstrainedBox parent-child ordering inside SmartEditor to eliminate ParentDataWidget assertion errors in column layouts.
• Package Metadata: Added complete screenshots manifest to pubspec.yaml adhering to pub.dev specifications.

2.2.0

🚀Features

• Image Blocks:

  • Pure Flutter image block representation (ImageNode, BlockType.image) with zero WebView dependency.
  • Multi-source image import via ImageImportDialog: remote web URLs, device gallery & camera with built-in permission management (permission_handler), and base64 Data URLs.
  • Integrated cropping using image_cropper (SmartImageCropper) with customizable platform styles.
  • Interactive on-click contextual toolbar offering ✂️ Crop, ↔️ Align (Left, Center, Right), 📐 Resize quick presets (25%, 50%, 75%, 100%), and 🗑️ Remove.
  • Captions and accessibility alt text support with complete HTML serialization (<img src="..." alt="..." data-caption="..." />).
  • Drag-and-drop block reordering support through draggableBlockTypes: {BlockType.image}.
  • Comprehensive programmatic APIs on SmartEditorController (insertImage, updateImage, removeImage, setImageAlignment, setImageSize, getImageNode).

• Find & Replace:

  • Floating native search overlay with live match counting (n of total) and search options (Match Case, Whole Word, Regular Expressions).
  • Real-time match highlighting across document text and table cells with customizable active & inactive colors.
  • Bidirectional match traversal, single Replace, and Replace All with atomic undo/redo history.
  • Standard keyboard shortcuts (Cmd/Ctrl+F to find, Cmd/Ctrl+H to replace, Escape to close).
  • Granular configuration via SmartEditorSettings.enableFindReplace and SmartOtherButtons(findReplace: true).

• Hyperlinks:

  • Dedicated dialog for inserting and editing links (LinkDialog) with auto-population from current text selection.
  • Contextual link management (open URL, edit link/display text, or unlink) without losing formatting.
  • Full HTML round-trip parsing and serialization of <a> tags with href and target attributes.
  • Atomic undo/redo support for link applications and removals.
