This change draws a numeric font-weight={expr} at its weight with svgr 0.50.1 and removes the text conversion in svgr-macro. usvgr 0.50.1 reads a number set from code for every attribute (dmtrKovalenko/svgr#19, dmtrKovalenko/svgr#21), so the expression stays a number and does not allocate a string on every frame. Tests check that numeric expressions render like literals in compile-time and runtime mode.


Important

This PR contains #218 (svgr 0.50.1). Merge #218 first.

Part Change
svgr-macro No text conversion for font-weight. A literal that parses as a transform stays text unless the attribute is transform, gradientTransform or patternTransform: an empty font-family="" became the identity transform.
fframes-test-utils numeric_expressions_render_like_literals: font-weight from u16, 650, f32, &str, String, out of range and inherited, text rotate, transform-origin and feConvolveMatrix order render like the literal, in both modes. numeric_expressions snapshot: compile-time and runtime trees are the same. The snapshot helper loads DM Sans, so the text of the snapshots is kept.
Docs AGENTS.md and the skill: font-weight is a number from 1 to 1000 or normal/bold.

Rendered font weight (DM Sans Regular and Medium, CPU, Skia CPU and Skia GPU)

font-weight main (rc.1) this PR
{500u16}, {700u16}, {700.0f32}, <g font-weight={700u16}> ❌ Regular ✅ Medium
{650u16}, "650", {550.4f32} ❌ Regular ✅ Medium
"500", "700", {"bold"}, {String::from("700")} ✅ Medium ✅ Medium
{400u16}, none ✅ Regular ✅ Regular

The three renderers give the same result in every case, in compile-time and in runtime mode.

Original description

Fixes #203.

With compile-time-svgtree, font-weight={expr} with a number was silently drawn at weight 400. A numeric expression becomes SvgAttributeValue::Float(v, ""), with an empty text, and usvgr's resolve_font_weight reads the attribute as text, so it matched nothing and kept the inherited weight. Both cargo fframes new templates use font-weight={WEIGHT} with a u16 constant, so new projects hit this.

Change

  • svgr-macro: for font-weight (the one text-read attribute whose valid values are numbers), an expression is converted with ToString::to_string before it becomes an attribute value. This follows the pattern of fix(svgr): keep ids and references as strings in compile-time trees #182. Every other attribute and every literal is unchanged.
  • fframes-test-utils: numeric_font_weight_expression converts the same text with font-weight="700" and with font-weight={weight} (a u16) against a font database holding DM Sans, then asserts both trees are identical and carry font-weight="700". The existing snapshot helper uses an empty font database, which drops text, so this test loads a font itself.

Testing

  • Without the fix, cargo test -p fframes_test_utils numeric_font_weight fails: the numeric tree has font-weight="400".
  • With the fix, cargo test -p fframes_test_utils (compile-time, 16 passed) and cargo test -p fframes_test_utils --no-default-features (runtime, 11 passed) both pass.
  • cargo clippy -p svgr-macro -p fframes_test_utils --tests -- -D warnings is clean.

Left out

The issue also suggests making SvgAttributeValueRef::as_str return None for a Float with an empty text, so the existing "requested a string type value" error fires for any other text-read attribute that gets a number. That change is in usvgr, so it isn't in this PR.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • SVG transform values are now interpreted only on transform-related attributes, preserving values on other attributes.
    • Numeric font weights render consistently whether provided as markup literals or expressions. Values from 1 through 1000 are supported; values outside that range are ignored.
  • Documentation

    • Updated guidance to clarify numeric font-weight formats and valid ranges.

…ime trees (dmtrKovalenko#203)

A numeric expression becomes SvgAttributeValue::Float(v, "") with an empty text, and usvgr
reads font-weight as text, so font-weight={700} fell back to the inherited 400 without any
diagnostic. Convert font-weight expressions to text in the macro, as dmtrKovalenko#182 did for ids.

📝 Walkthrough

The macro now parses transforms only for transform attributes. Test utilities and regression tests cover numeric expressions in SVG attributes, including font weights, and the guidance documents the accepted font-weight range.

Changes: SVG numeric value handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Restrict transform parsing to transform attributes
svgr-macro/src/nodes_to_svgtree.rs
Transform parsing now applies only to Transform, GradientTransform, and PatternTransform. Tests check transform tokens and string storage for other attributes.
Verify numeric expression rendering and font weights
fframes-test-utils/src/lib.rs, fframes-test-utils/src/svgr_spec.rs, fframes-test-utils/_svgr_snapshots/*, AGENTS.md, skills/fframes-video/references/api.md
Test utilities load DM Sans for SVG conversion. Regression tests compare expressions with literals and compare compile-time and runtime trees. The snapshot and guidance cover numeric font-weight values.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ff2b3

Numeric font weights may be working correctly, but the new tests do not protect lower-weight face selection. Add that case before merging if this regression should be caught here.

what we should actually do is to convert this at compile time into the number

Sure thing, better fix here: dmtrKovalenko/svgr#19. It turned out not to be just font-weight: a few other readers (text rotate, marker orient, some filter attributes) drop numbers set from code too, so I fixed them in usvgr where the number is read. Once that's released I'll update this PR to bump usvgr, drop the string conversion and keep the test.

Fixed the CI failure: svgr-macro is edition 2018, so assert! doesn't take inline format args there.

Add a lower-weight face-selection case.

The fixture loads only Regular and Medium faces. The current cases use 550.5, 650, and 700, which can all select Medium. The equality checks therefore do not detect a regression that maps every in-range numeric expression to Medium. Add a case such as 350, which should select Regular, and compare its expression with the equivalent literal.
