marquee 1.2.0

Better vectorisation of style_set and classic_style

If image URLs doesn’t indicate image format marquee will attempt to sniff it

Size of element_marquee() is communicated similar to element_text() (#57)
You can now change the size by using a {.size …} shortcut, e.g. {.30 BIG} to render BIG with font size 30

Added support for PNG and JPEG files from URLs (#63)
Fixed a bug in bullet placement when the bullet was the last in the document and contained multiple text spans (#54)

Fixed a bug when using ordered list
Fixed various bugs in guide_marquee()

CRAN release: 2025-01-20

Fixed a bug in bullet placement that affected tight lists with multiple spans (#18)
code spans gains a slight horizontal padding to let the background breathe a bit. Currently padding around spans doesn’t affect shaping (i.e. it doesn’t move text further from it’s neighbors).
Better adherence to margin collapsing rules of CSS. Any background or border will now prevent further collapsing
Add force_body_margin argument to enforce that the body margin is not influenced by collapsing (allowing you to turn it off completely). This setting is turned on for geom_marquee() and element_marquee() (#23)
Add support for rendering on graphics devices that doesn’t support the new glyphs capabilities
Inline padding now reserves space on the left and right side during shaping if the inline tag has decoration (background or border)
Added guide_marquee() to make allow legends with keys mixed into free text descriptions
