Changes in version 0.0.1 (2026-08-06)                  

Initial CRAN submission. The package was previously developed as drawr.

Breaking changes

  - Numbers draw at three significant figures by default, tunable with
    sigfig.
  - Large matrices, vectors, and data frames elide their middle past a
    size cap, overridable with max_rows, max_cols, or show_all = TRUE.
  - A data frame's list column shows each element's type and size, like
    <int [3]>, instead of a bare <list>.

New features

  - paint_list() and gpaint_list() draw a list, each element a column
    and its values the rows, which is the picture a data frame makes
    once its columns share a length. show_indices = "cell" labels cells
    with the [[j]][i] accessor, and summarise = TRUE collapses each
    element to a single cell.
  - Named vectors, matrix dimnames(), and data-frame row names are drawn
    as labels, toggled with show_names, show_dimnames, and
    show_rownames.
  - paint_data_frame() and gpaint_data_frame() (aliases paint_df() and
    gpaint_df()) draw a data frame with a per-column type band,
    controlled by show_names and show_types.
  - gpaint_vector() completes the paint_*() and gpaint_*() pairing for
    every structure.
  - paint_size() returns the device size a structure needs to stay
    legible, in inches, centimetres, or pixels.
  - Cell text is fitted to the available space so it no longer
    overflows, with fontsize and family to override.
  - Insignificant trailing digits are greyed rather than dropped,
    tunable with subtle_digits.
  - Long strings are truncated to max_chars with an ellipsis.

Bug fixes

  - Character matrices and vectors render their values instead of a red
    Unknown.
  - highlight_data() and the highlight_rows(), highlight_columns(), and
    highlight_locations() helpers no longer error on character vectors,
    logical vectors, or data frames, and accept row and column names.
  - Graphics parameters are restored after paint_matrix() and
    paint_vector().
  - paint_matrix()'s type error no longer claims the data should be a
    vector.
