This week was highly productive as I concentrated on refining the TextRenderer, implementing multiple improvements, and resolving key challenges from the previous week’s work. I also added new test cases to ensure better coverage and drafted a PR to consolidate these updates.
This Week
Fix Rendering Issue with Measurement
Last week, I faced a challenge with the TextRenderer not being able to render measurements correclty. This week, I resolved the issue, and now the TextRenderer can successfully handle Measurement rendering in all positions.

Test cases have been implemented to validate the output integrity of the text renderer. Additionally, maintaining layer integrity is essential, as misalignment would possibly major issue incases of incorrect rendering. I am still exploring ideas on how to develop a test case for this.
Miscellaneous
Merged MatRenderer PR :
All the suggested changes were made and the PR was merged in QIP master branch.TextRenderer Draft PR :
The TextRenderer code underwent further refactoring and cleanup, and a Draft PR has been submitted.Addition of Docstring for StyleConfig Dataclass
The MatRenderer offers a wide range of customization options, and the arguments for each of these options have been documented and included in the docstring.
Fixing Gap Rendering with Multiqubit Gates
Previous Rendering of MultiQubit Gates vs Corrected Rendering of MultiQubit Gates
Plan for Next Week
- Merge the Base Renderer from the current Draft PR
- Ensure compatibility of the Base Renderer with MatRenderer
- Ensure compatibility of the Base Renderer with TextRenderer
- Incorporate the suggested improvements into the Draft PR
