@pptx-editor.dev/pro/drawing

The free engine paints pictures, shapes with fills, gradients, patterns, lines and outer shadows, text, tables, and groups. This module adds:

- the shape and picture effects glow, inner shadow, reflection, soft edge, and blur (ECMA-376 Part 1, 20.1.8); - 3-D shapes (ECMA-376 Part 1, 20.1.5): bevels, contours, and, under a turned camera, the turned face and its extrusion; - charts, drawn from the values cached in their chart parts (ECMA-376 Part 1, 21.2): bar and column charts (clustered, stacked, and percent stacked), line, area, scatter, pie, doughnut, and radar charts, with titles, legends, axes, gridlines, data labels, and number formats. 3-D, of-pie, stock, bubble, and surface charts, and charts with trendlines or error bars, keep the placeholder. A chart becomes shapes and labels that the engine lays out like any other shape, so the editor and the PDF export draw one layout. Its part saves unchanged.

Without it, a chart shows a labeled placeholder, and a shape or picture paints without those effects, and the editor chrome does not offer them (Shape Effects shows only the outer shadows, Picture Styles only the frame styles). The effect commands still write them to the file, and save keeps them. PDF export (@pptx-editor.dev/pptx-to-pdf) always includes this module.

The renderers serve every editor and export in the process. Install them before any document opens; a later install logs a console warning once. The chrome controls refresh after an install.
