+## [0.22.0] - 2026-07-29
+
+### Added
+
+- **`FontSmoothing` type** (gogpu#396, ADR-057) — three-state enum (`None`, `Grayscale`, `Subpixel`) for OS text anti-aliasing mode. Separate from `SubpixelLayout` — answers "how is text AA'd?" vs "what is the display's pixel arrangement?". `PlatformProvider.FontSmoothing()` method added. `NullPlatformProvider` defaults to `FontSmoothingGrayscale`. `String()` method for debugging.
+- **Coordinate space documentation** (gogpu#398) — explicit "logical DIP, do NOT divide by ScaleFactor" godoc on `PointerEvent.X/Y`, `ScrollEvent.X/Y`, and all `OnMouse*` callbacks.
