FIX 1 (src/markdown_table.py): Cells now use imgui_md.render(c) instead of
imgui.text_wrapped(c). imgui_md uses MD4C which strips backtick-delimited
inline code spans BEFORE rendering, so backticks no longer appear as
literal characters in cell content. Side benefit: inline emphasis
(*foo*, **bar**) now renders in cells too.
FIX 2 (src/markdown_helper.py): Added MarkdownRenderer._normalize_nested_list_endings.
Upstream imgui_md (mekhontsev/imgui_md) BLOCK_UL exit only calls
ImGui::NewLine() for top-level list endings. For nested list endings, no
NewLine is emitted, so the next text starts at the same Y as the last
list item, causing visual overlap. The preprocessor inserts a blank
line before any line that follows a list item with MORE indent than
itself, forcing a paragraph break. Cannot fix the C++ from Python.
Tests:
- test_markdown_table_wrapped.py: updated to assert imgui_md.render is
called for cell content (not imgui.text_wrapped).
- test_markdown_helper_bullets.py: added 4 tests for the new preprocessors
(nested-list blank insertion + bullet delimiter conversion + edge cases).
20/20 markdown unit tests pass. 1-space indentation throughout.
KNOWN LIMITATIONS (cannot fix without forking imgui_md C++):
- Inline code spans render as plain text (no monospace font in cells)
- The ' * ' bullet delimiter has a Y-overlap bug upstream
(workaround: pre-convert to '- ' via _normalize_bullet_delimiters)
- Nested list ending overlap (workaround: insert blank line via
_normalize_nested_list_endings)
Table fix (src/markdown_table.py):
- Add TableColumnFlags_.width_stretch to each table_setup_column call
(was missing — columns had no width to wrap against, so text_wrapped
couldn't grow row height → all rows squished together)
- Remove the explicit for-h-in-headers: table_next_column + text_wrapped(h)
loop. table_headers_row() already renders the header from the
table_setup_column() names; the explicit loop was drawing it AGAIN on
top → double-rendered header rows.
Bullet fix (src/markdown_helper.py):
- Revert _render_md_no_bullet_overlap → simple imgui_md.render(chunk);
imgui.spacing() (the original af0bbe97 approach). The complex
workaround was stripping '- ' and rendering stripped text to imgui_md,
which double-rendered '- 1. ...' content (imgui.bullet from my code +
numbered list marker from imgui_md).
- Add MarkdownRenderer._normalize_bullet_delimiters: regex-converts
'* ' markers to '- ' before passing to imgui_md. This works around
the upstream bug in mekhontsev/imgui_md BLOCK_LI where the '*' case
calls ImGui::Bullet() without ImGui::SameLine(), causing the bullet
to render on its own Y with the text on the next Y. The '-' case
uses Text+SameLine which is correct. Cannot fix from Python (we
can't subclass the C++ class) — pre-conversion is the cheapest fix.
Tests:
- test_markdown_table_wrapped.py: updated to assert new behavior
(text_wrapped count == cell count, not header+cell).
- test_markdown_table_columns.py: updated to assert exactly 6
table_next_column calls (cells only, not 9).
- test_markdown_helper_bullets.py: rewrote for new public-API behavior
(imgui_md.render called with the unstripped chunk).
16/16 markdown unit tests pass.
ROOT CAUSE: src/markdown_table.py:render_table was missing
imgui.table_setup_column() calls. In ImGui, columns MUST be
configured via table_setup_column before table_headers_row is called.
Without it, the table has no defined columns, causing cells to
render at overlapping Y positions. This manifested as text overlap
in the Discussion Hub's read_mode entries (e.g., 'swc2 -> gte_sw'
overlapping the line above it).
FIX: Call imgui.table_setup_column(h, TableColumnFlags_.width_stretch)
for each header BEFORE table_headers_row(). Each column now has a
defined width (stretch = fills available space) and cells render
correctly without overlap.
Tests:
- New test_markdown_table_columns.py asserts setup_column is called
once per column and table_next_column is called for each cell.
- 16/16 broad regression pass (test_markdown_table,
test_markdown_table_render, test_markdown_render_robust,
test_gen_send_empty_context, test_gui_fast_render)
