(It does seem like the main screen can only show 16 puzzles at a time, with no way to go to a next page.)

Okay, switched to a 5x5 grid fixed this. This may lead to problems where we would eventually need a 7x6 grid to fit all the puzzles.

[LeifAndersen]

I also added loopy.

5x5 seems reasonable to me!

Would you mind editing those help files to use "long press" instead of "right-click"? It looks like with the other help files I left "click" as is instead of using with "press" or "tap", so that part is fine.

Okay, a few things:

1. Updated help files.
2. I added configs for magnets and signpost.
3. I was thinking about unequal, and wondering how hard it would be to use handwriting recognition for entering the numbers (like in the remarkable crossword puzzle package), and thoughts on that?

[mrichards42]

Awesome! Mind doing the same for the magnets and signpost help files?

I'll take a look at the new puzzles on my remarkable sometime soon, but how does the signpost ending animation end up looking?

This was certainly a long-term goal of mine, and part of why I never added any of the number puzzles. IMO recrossable's recognition is pretty bad, but just numbers would be a whole heck of a lot easier than a full alphabet, especially given the MNIST data set. I wouldn't be surprised if there's a decent smallish C library for number recognition already.

Oh, woops, I missed left-drag and left-click. Good catch. I'll fix that momentarily.

Good point. I'm mostly just not sure how to overlay a drawing context on the puzzle rendering code. Would you mind pointing to where it is?

Sorry, I might be a little slow to respond this week, but I did have a chance to test this out. A few notes:

• The 5x5 grid feels a bit cramped. Ultimately I'd like to go with two pages and next/back buttons. 5x5 is ok, but if we go with that I think we want to make the icons smaller.
• iirc I left signpost our because of the weird polygon drawing issues. It's playable, so might as well leave it in, but it would be nice to fix that at some point.
• Some of the help files have html entities that we should replace with a similar ascii character (e.g. x instead of ×). Some also reference colors that would be good to replace with "gray" or "shaded" or something to distinguish the colors.
• This isn't essential, but some puzzles gave a one-word hint as to what the controls do. Here's an example.

ui::Canvas has a vector of Layers, so the idea would be to add another layer that's used for drawing. I never got around to making that work though, so it could be a bit of work to get drawing to happen.
