✍️ [Effects] Add Hand-Scribbling Page Effect #113

Description

@ahmdkaml

✍️ Overview

Add a hand-scribbling visual effect that can be applied to a rendered page.

The effect should make the page appear as though it has been annotated or scribbled on by hand.

🎯 Goals

  • Implement hand-scribbling as a page-level effect.
  • Allow scribbles to appear over the rendered page.
  • Ensure the effect is visible in the preview.
  • Ensure the effect is included in PDF export.
  • Keep the effect independent from document modules.

📦 Requirements

The effect should support configurable properties where appropriate, such as:

  • Scribble position
  • Scribble size
  • Rotation
  • Stroke characteristics
  • Intensity/density
  • Opacity

The implementation should work through the page-effect system established by the page-level effects issue.

🚫 Out of Scope

  • Creating a handwritten text module.
  • Changing the underlying document content.
  • Applying the effect to individual modules.

🌱 Future Direction

Additional hand-drawn effects may eventually be added, such as:

  • Underlines
  • Circles
  • Arrows
  • Cross-outs
  • Handwritten annotations
  • Sketches

The architectural distinction is clean:
