A single selected_layers list kept ids from every comp, so the active comp looked selected whenever another comp was. Opening a comp and running a script against a different comp now park and restore that selection.
sanitize_state dropped every selected layer not in the active comp at the
end of each script run, so a layer selected by script in a comp that was not
open was gone by the next script call. Every comp keeps its own selection as
in After Effects; only ids gone from every comp are dropped now. UI and
engine lookups resolve selections per comp and tolerate foreign ids.
After Effects 25.4's Quick Offset staggers selected layers, or each
layer's selected keyframes, in the order they were selected: the first
stays, the last moves by the drag and the ones between by equal steps,
landing on subframes.
layer.quickOffset {delta, layers?} moves each layer's start, in and out
point by total * i / (n - 1), worked out once in ticks with integer
arithmetic, so 1 frame over 4 layers gives 0, 1/3, 2/3 and 1 frame
exactly. keys.quickOffset {delta} does the same per layer for the
selected keys, the layers in the order their first key was selected;
every selected key of a layer, across its properties, moves by that
layer's comp-time offset through its start and stretch (reversed too),
keeping values, interpolation, easing and labels. Locked layers are
skipped and at least two layers are needed. With merge and fromStart,
delta is the whole drag and each step starts again from before it, so
the drag is one undo step and a key passed over survives. A delta or a
destination out of the range of times is an error, not a clamped move.
Docs: agents.md; architecture.md notes Quick Offset as the exception to
times snapping to frames.
comp.workAreaToSelection (Cmd+Alt+B) spans the selected layers, or the
whole composition with none selected. comp.activateRecent (Shift+Esc)
goes back to the composition that was active most recently within the
active one's nesting hierarchy; EditorState keeps recent_comps for it.

time.workAreaStart / time.workAreaEnd (Shift+Home / End) and
time.previousInOut / time.nextInOut (Cmd+Alt+Shift+Left / Right): the In
and Out points of the selected layers, of every layer with none selected.
time.go takes nextInOut and prevInOut.

The media layer keys decoded frames by path, and nothing dropped them when a
new project (or a new import) named a file that another app had overwritten
since, so a same-size overwrite showed the old pixels. Importing footage and
replacing the project now make the media layer and the layer cache let go of
the files involved.

File > Import > EffectCraft Project (and .ecproj/.ecprojx given to File > Import)
merges the project into a folder named after the file, with every id shifted past
the open project's, in one undo step. Relative footage resolves next to the file;
the result lists comps, root comps, primaryComp and missing media.
offset_ids now shifts tracker Motion Targets and saturates instead of overflowing;
fix_next_id saturates too, so a damaged file can't overflow on open or import.
Menu entry translated in all ten menu catalogues.
Rebased onto current upstream main for the split of #858 (test module list in
engine lib.rs; es/pt-br/ru/fr/de/cs menu translations).

Project files now record activeComp and openComps next to savedBy, and
file.open restores them, so a project reopens on the comp it was saved
on (desktop app, CLI and MCP all open through file.open). Older files
and ids that no longer name a comp fall back to the first comp; older
versions ignore the new keys.

Problem: comp.new/comp.settings clamp sizes to 30,000 px, frame rates to
0.001-1000 fps and motion-blur samples to 2-64, but reading a project
(.ecproj and .ecprojx, templates, recovery, offload) accepted any value:
a 4-billion-px comp, solid or footage frame, a 0 or 10^18 fps rate
(zero-length frames), a negative duration or 4 billion blur samples all
reached the renderer. New Solid, Layer Settings, Import Solid/Placeholder,
Crop Comp and PSD import set sizes without the upper bound, and comp
sizes past 2^32 wrapped.
Fix: one set of limits in effectcraft_project::limits. Project::from_json
brings every item (and proxy) within them; from_json_repaired also says
what it changed, which file.open returns as `repaired` and shows in a
toast, so the project still opens. Project::add_item applies the same
limits to every new item, and the size-setting commands clamp with the
shared helpers.

Problem: nothing fuzzed project files. The hand-written .ecprojx XML reader
recursed once per nested <arr>/<obj> with no limit, so a deeply nested file
overflowed the stack and aborted the app instead of failing to open.
Fix: a dependency-free, deterministic, seeded mutation fuzzer for File > Open
(JSON and XML seeds from the demo, byte and JSON-structure mutations, the real
file.open path, first queries and a thumbnail render; each input under
catch_unwind with a deadline; bounded for cargo test, longer runs via env
vars). The XML reader now stops at the JSON reader's 128-level limit, with a
regression test.

Problem: app.scheduleTask(code, delay, true) queued the task and then
skipped it (eval_with_tasks: `if repeat { continue; }`), so repeating
tasks - what ScriptUI panels use for polling and refreshing - never ran.
One-shot tasks scheduled by handlers or in the Script Console never ran
either.
Fix: tasks live per script context (crates/script/src/tasks.rs) with a
due time. Frontends run the due ones every frame through the new
ScriptUi::run_tasks hook (the egui app does; agents and headless hosts
use the `script.runTasks` command). Script-host threads get a Tick
message, inline hosts (Script Console, web) run in their kept context.
A repeating task runs every `delay` ms until app.cancelTask, until it
throws (reported once, then cancelled), or until its owner goes: the
script's last window closing, or - for scripts without windows and the
console - the project being closed or replaced (ScriptUi::project_epoch).
Bounds: at least 50 ms between runs, at most 64 pending tasks per
script, one run per pass (no catch-up bursts), task code nested too
deeply is refused, the engine's loop and recursion limits apply. Ticks
only reach the hosts of the session that scheduled them.

Problem: EffectCraft shipped only 8 original text-animator presets against
After Effects' 621; there was no Transitions category (ranked gap #7).
Fix: an original preset library, crates/engine/presets/transitions.json
(23 presets on our own Transition effects and layer opacity: fades,
directional and diagonal wipes, clock and fan reveals, blinds and slats,
pixel/mosaic dissolves, card flips, CC grid, radial scale, line sweep and
jaws wipes; In and Out). New commands anim.applyBuiltinPreset (adds the
effects with values and keyframes from the current time, one undo step,
reports any path that doesn't fit) and anim.builtinPresets. Effects &
Presets lists them under * Animation Presets > Transitions; double-click
applies. Sidecar and ATTRIBUTION.md entry; gaps/effects-parity updated.

Problem: After Effects 26.3's font menu can show only variable fonts.
EffectCraft's font menus (Character panel, Properties ▸ Text) had no such
filter, and text.fonts / MCP list_fonts didn't say which families are
variable.
Fix: the font scan marks a face variable when its table directory has an
fvar table declaring axes (header read only, no extra file loading). The
font menu gets a "Variable fonts only" checkbox above the results; it
combines with the typed search, keeps the keyboard in the search field and
stays set while the app runs. text.fonts reports `variable` per family and
takes `{variable: true}`; list_fonts passes it through. Catalog rows for
ja, zh-Hans, zh-Hant and uk.

Problem: After Effects 26.3 copies the current composition frame to the
system clipboard; EffectCraft could only write it to a file (Save Frame As).
Fix: new command comp.copyFrame {comp?, time?, scale?} renders the frame as
Save Frame As ▸ File does and emits Event::CopyImage (pixels not
serialized); the egui frontend puts it on the clipboard after checking the
buffer size. In the Composition menu (translated) and the viewer's context
menu; drivable by id over the control channel / MCP.

With no GPU compositor the report only said "GPU: none", though the host had recorded the
reason (`Session::accel_note`: the compositor's setup error, a retired GPU preview, a
headless start) and the window's wgpu adapter was known. Users with a capable GPU (#596, an
RTX 4070) couldn't tell why it wasn't used.
The report now carries `gpuNote` (the reason, when there is no compositor) and
`windowGraphics` (the adapter, backend, device type and driver the window draws with, which
the desktop app records when it sets up the GPU), and the text shows
"GPU: none (CPU compositing): <reason>" and "Window graphics: …"; the issue line names the
reason too.
Test: the compatibility report test sets a reason and an adapter and checks the JSON and text.

Cause: edit.copy handled text editing, selected keyframes, effects and shape
items, then fell back to copying the selected layers. Selecting a property
selects its keys, so an animated property copied, but an unanimated one (or
the Transform group, whose keys prop.select doesn't select) copied the whole
layer, and Paste added a duplicate layer instead of setting the property.
Fix: with properties (or the Transform group) selected, Edit > Copy copies, as
After Effects does, each animated property's keys (the selected ones, else all
of them, through keys.copy) and each unanimated property's value into a new
value clipboard keyed by match path. Edit > Paste sets those values on the
same properties of the selected layers (a key at the CTI where the target is
animated) and pastes the keys at the CTI, as one undo step (keys.paste now
honours `merge`). Keys alone still answer with their count, as before.
Test: copy_a_selected_property_pastes_onto_the_same_property (static
Position, then the Transform group with animated Opacity: values and keys
land on layer B, no layer is added, one undo step each).

(cherry picked from commit 8267519ebe20e889196e538de23b85b04a1fa76a)
A running script reached `prefs.set` through `app.run` and could turn on
Settings > Scripting & Expressions > Allow Scripts to Write Files and Access
Network (or turn off Warn User When Executing Files), which the File, Socket
and system.callSystem gates then read: the permission the user withheld was
the script's to take.
Commands a script issues now go through `Session::execute_for_script`, which
marks the session as running for a script for the command and everything it
runs (engine.batch, ScriptUI callbacks, scheduled tasks). While it is,
`prefs.set` refuses any change that would leave the Application Scripting
settings different (compared on the resulting settings, so dotted keys,
whole-page objects and batches are all covered), and a script's
`prefs.reset` keeps them as the user set them. Command scripts read from a
file (File > Scripts > Run Script File... with .json/.jsonl) count as
scripts too. The UI, CLI, control channel and MCP still change them.

Reload Footage (Cmd+Alt+L) updated an item's metadata but left the media
pool's decoded frames and the layer cache in place, so the old image kept
rendering until Edit > Purge. It also replaced the footage with a probe of
the merged document, so a Photoshop layer item lost its layer and its
Retain Layer Sizes bounds.
Reload now re-reads only what the file decides (size, a movie's duration,
streams and frame rate, codec, a data file's text), keeps the layer or
page and the interpretation, finds a Photoshop layer again by name, and
makes the media layer forget the file (FootageSource::forget, which also
drops the EXR aux-channel cache) and clears the layer cache.
Settings > Import > Reload Footage Changed on Disk (on by default): the
desktop app stamps footage files (size + modification time) on a worker
thread every two seconds and when the window comes back to the front, and
reloads what changed. Not an undo step and it doesn't modify the project;
a file still being written is retried on the next check.
footage.reloadChanged runs one check (CLI, MCP, agents).

What: the Composition panel's Resolution (Auto, Full, Half, Third, Quarter, Custom) is now a
property of the composition (`Comp::resolution`, moved with its `Resolution` type from the UI
into the project crate) instead of one global viewer setting. Switching to another comp shows
that comp's resolution, switching back shows the first one's again, and saving and reopening the
project keeps them. `view.res.full|half|third|quarter|custom` and the new engine command
`view.res.auto` set it (headless too, with an optional `comp`); `ui.set {viewer: {res}}` sets
the active comp's and `ui.inspect` still reports `ui.viewer.res`; `comp.info` reports
`resolution` and `resolutionFactor`; View ▸ Resolution's check marks come from the engine.
Why: After Effects saves each composition's Resolution with the project (CompItem.resolutionFactor
is a per-comp attribute). As there, changing it marks the project modified but adds no undo step:
undo, redo and History jumps carry the current values over to the restored state. It is not part
of the comp's pixels (`Comp::same_pixels` ignores it and `Comp::pixel_form` normalises it), so
changing it keeps the comp's RAM and disk cache keys. Auto is not written (serde default and
skip_serializing_if), so projects saved before open with Auto and older versions read new files.
The magnification is not saved per comp: Adobe's documentation doesn't say it is.
Tests: project `comp_resolution_is_saved_and_old_projects_load_with_auto`,
`resolution_factors_and_scales`; engine
`each_comp_keeps_its_resolution_outside_the_undo_history_and_in_the_file` (switching comps,
no undo step, undo/redo keep it, save/open round trip, menu check marks, Custom dialog);
ui-egui `each_comp_keeps_its_viewer_resolution` (the viewer popup on comp A, comp B through
`ui.set`, back to A, unchanged frame cache identity, save/open). They don't build before the
change (no `Comp::resolution`, no `view.res.auto` engine command).

The Ease Presets panel (#254) is modelled on a third-party panel, so,
as with third-party tools in After Effects, it isn't core any more: it
is `extensions/scriptui-panels/Ease Presets.jsx`, a ScriptUI panel
bundled as an optional extension (Window ▸ Ease Presets.jsx), written
only against the public scripting API. Clicking a preset eases every
pair of neighbouring selected keyframes in one undo step (per
dimension, along the motion path for spatial properties, the keys'
other sides as they play); the fields edit the working curve, which the
panel draws; From Keys, Save, Rename and Delete as before. The twelve
built-in curves are unchanged.
Scripting API fixes it needed (After Effects parity):
- `app.settings` lasts between runs (`script_settings.json` in the
settings folder; `script.settings.get` / `script.settings.save`).
- Per-key methods (`setTemporalEaseAtKey`, `setInterpolationTypeAtKey`,
`removeKey`, the continuous / auto-Bezier / roving setters) no longer
change the user's key selection (they selected the key they edited).
- `keyInTemporalEase` / `keyOutTemporalEase` report linear and
auto-Bezier sides as they play, `keyIn/OutSpatialTangent` the
tangents the motion path plays.
- `selectedProperties` includes the properties of selected keyframes.
- `isInterpolationTypeValid` is false for Linear / Bezier on values that
only hold.
Removed from core: Window ▸ Ease Presets, the `keys.easePreset.*`
commands, `engine::ease_presets` and the `ease_presets.json` store,
`keyframe::EaseCurve` (nothing else used it) and the egui panel. User
presets saved by the v0.6.0 panel move into the panel's app.settings
section the first time settings load (the old file is left as is).

Effects: effect points on shape layers start at the layer centre (#227)
# Conflicts:
# crates/ui-egui/src/panels/puppet_tool.rs
# crates/ui-egui/src/panels/viewer.rs
Image sequences were found only by the desktop media prober: one picked
numbered still brought its whole run, with no way to import just that
frame, picking every frame made one sequence item per frame, the browser
couldn't make sequences at all, and a gap in the numbering closed up
silently.
The engine now groups numbered stills itself (engine/src/sequence.rs):
one picked file brings its run from its folder, several picked files of
one run import as that range, a picked or dropped folder imports its
files with each run as a sequence, and Force Alphabetical Order takes
every image of that type in the folder by name. `file.import` takes
`sequence` (default on), `alphabetical` and `frameRate`; Replace Footage,
Reload, proxies and render outputs probe the same way. The media layer
probes one file; the browser lists its file table for the run and
registers every frame with its media pool.
File > Import > File... asks, like After Effects' "PNG Sequence"
checkbox, whether picked numbered stills import as a sequence, with
Force Alphabetical Order and the frame rate. Sequences are named
`shot_[0001-0250].png`.
Interpret Footage gains Missing Frames (Show Placeholder, colour bars as
in After Effects, the new default; Hold Previous Frame; Skip) and Start
Frame (the frame number at the footage's first frame: trims or pads the
head). Saved projects keep Skip, so their sequences play as before.
Form notes keep a readable width and the form fits its rows, so OK stays
in view. docs/footage.md explains importing footage and sequences.
Test: tests_sequence (engine: run, picked range, every frame, Sequence

Shape and text layers have comp-sized effect bounds centred on their
origin, but effects measured positions from the origin: a point at its
default "layer centre" sat at the comp's bottom-right corner, so Twirl
on a centred shape changed nothing and Bulge only its bottom-right
quarter. As in After Effects, effects now work in effect space,
measured from the top-left of the layer's effect bounds.
The renderer moves the layer buffer into effect space for the whole
stack (Buf::rebase, CPU and GPU alike) and hands effects everything
else in it: masks, other layers' pixels for layer parameters (each in
its own effect space, so Set Matte and displacement maps see a whole
shape layer), the layer's own frames (layer_input, also what Puppet,
Roto Brush and the Layer panel read) and the comp camera
(CompScene::rebased). Layer bounds are now right for every effect, so
pin_rect and EffectEnv::bounds_origin go and layer_rect serves edge
pinning too. Adjustment layers still run on the comp below as it is.
effect_bounds / EvalCtx::effect_to_comp replace the repeated "comp size
when there is no source" code; the viewer's effect point handles and
eyedroppers, Puppet pins, the Layer panel (paint, Roto Brush) and the
tracker's Corner Pin output use them.
Project schema 2: opening a schema 1 project moves positions held by
effects on shape and text layers by half the comp size, so set points
keep their place (point parameters with keyframes, Paint paths and
clone positions, Puppet seeds and pins, Liquify and Roto Brush
strokes). Points still at their default become the layer centre;
expression controls, adjustment layers and expressions are left as
they are (docs/architecture.md). The disk cache's render version is
bumped.
Tests: default_effect_points_sit_at_the_centre_of_a_shape_layer and
layer_parameters_see_a_whole_shape_layer (render, both fail before),
effect_points_on_a_shape_layer (GPU vs CPU),

get_project / render.backend reported "gpuAcceleration": true with
"active": "cpu" and no reason, which read as a broken GPU. The
headless MCP server only attaches the GPU compositor when started with
--gpu, which docs/agents.md didn't mention, and a failed --gpu said
only "no usable GPU adapter" (the adapter's error went to a log no
one sees). The session now keeps the host's reason there is no GPU
compositor (accel_note): the CLI's "headless: renders on the CPU
unless started with --gpu", or the desktop app's compositor setup or
retirement error. The status reports it as `why` whenever it renders
on the CPU (or that the project's renderer is Software Only). --gpu
failures include the adapter's error (Gpu::try_headless).

keys.easePreset.apply {preset | curve} eases every pair of neighbouring
selected keyframes of each selected property in one undo step: the out
side of the earlier key and the in side of the later one. A curve is
given as {outInfluence, outSpeed, inInfluence, inSpeed} or as handles
[x1, y1, x2, y2]. keys.easePreset.capture reads the curve between the
first selected pair; keys.easePreset.save {name, curve?} keeps it (or a
given curve), and list, rename and delete manage the user presets.
Twelve built-in curves are our own numbers (Linear, Smooth, Ease In-Out
Soft / plain / Strong, Accelerate and Decelerate with Strong variants,
Expo In-Out / Accelerate / Decelerate) and can't be renamed, deleted or
overwritten. User presets live in the config store (ease_presets.json),

presets, and entries that don't parse, have no usable name or repeat a
name are skipped and logged. A failed write leaves the presets as they

Dragging a layer already snapped its feature nearest the pointer to
other layers' edges, corners, centres, anchor points and path points
and to the comp's edges and centre, and Cmd/Ctrl held during the drag
already turned snapping on or off against the checkbox. What was
missing were After Effects' Snapping options beside the Tools bar's
checkbox. The new menu turns Snap Edges Extended off (a layer's edges
then snap only along the layer, not across the comp) and each feature
family (edges, corners, centres, anchor points, mask and shape path
points) on or off, for the dragged layer's snap features and for the
targets alike. Agents set them with view.snappingOptions.
Layers whose eye is off (or that a solo hides) are no longer snap
targets, mask and shape path points of the dragged layer snap too, and
while snapping is on the feature that snaps is boxed during the drag.

The Tools bar had Fill and Stroke swatches and a Stroke Width, kept in
the interface only, so agents couldn't set them and new shapes could
only be a solid fill with a solid stroke. As in After Effects:
- With a shape layer selected and a shape tool or the Pen active, Tool
Creates Shape / Tool Creates Mask choose whether drawing adds shapes
to the layer or masks on it (Fill and Stroke hide while drawing
masks).
- Clicking the word "Fill" or "Stroke" opens Fill Options / Stroke
Options: None, Solid Color, Linear Gradient or Radial Gradient, the
blend mode and the opacity. The swatches show the kind; Alt-click
steps through the kinds.
- New shapes and Pen paths are painted with them: a Gradient Fill or
Gradient Stroke across the shape for the gradient kinds.
The options are engine state (EditorState.shape_tool) set with the new
shape.toolOptions command; shape.newShape and shape.newPath use them
unless given paint parameters (which now include fillType, fillBlend,
fillOpacity and their stroke twins; layer.newShape takes them too). A
Pen path without paint parameters now takes the Tools bar's stroke
(none by default) instead of a fixed 2 px white one. layer.addMask also
draws rounded rectangle, polygon and star masks, so every shape tool
makes a mask on a selected footage or solid layer (rounded rectangles,
polygons and stars made a new shape layer).

Edit > Copy with a shape group (or a path, fill, stroke or path
operation) selected in a shape layer's Contents copied the whole layer,

selected items, Paste puts them into each selected shape layer's
Contents (above its selected item, in that item's group, else on top,
with names kept unique there: "Rectangle 2"), and Cut removes them, so
Cut + Paste moves them. Pasting with no shape layer selected is an
error rather than a new layer. Copying anything else clears the shape
item clipboard, as it does the other clipboards.

#154: renderQueue.add (and render.addOutputModule) applied `format`, then
dropped it before applying the output path, so `--format hevc --out
x.mp4` saw the .mp4 extension and switched the module back to H.264
(and ProRes / VP9 for .mov / .webm). An explicit format now wins and a
mismatched extension follows it (x.webm → x.mp4 for AV1), as choosing a
format in the Output Module renames Output To; an extension that agrees
with the format keeps the name as given. The format error lists hevc and
av1 everywhere (one FORMATS string).
#155: a `comp` that names no composition (name or id) failed with "no

the files are hevc/hvc1 and av1/av01 and decode cleanly with ffmpeg.

A Windows user reported that the Properties panel's font menu offered only the bundled Inter,
JetBrains Mono and Noto Serif. The system font folders were scanned only when a project asked for
a family the bundled fonts lack, so until then every font menu (Properties, Character, Essential
Graphics) and `file.findMissing {what: fonts}` saw the bundled families alone, on every
platform. Listing the families now scans the system fonts first, and the desktop app starts that
scan on a background thread at launch so the menus are complete when first opened.
The style menus in the Properties and Character panels list the chosen family's own styles
instead of a fixed Regular / Medium / SemiBold / Bold / Italic. Both menus build their lists only
while open.
New query for agents: `text.fonts {query?, rescan?}` (MCP tool `list_fonts`) lists every family
with its styles, origin (bundled / system / user) and own-language name; `rescan` picks up fonts
installed since launch.
Tests: a fresh-process test that the family list includes every family in the platform's font
folders without a prior scan (failed before), and `text.fonts` filtering, rescan and per-family
styles, and the `list_fonts` MCP tool.

- effectcraft-segment: a FaceModel interface (find a face in a region, follow it; a Topology
maps the model's points to the tracker's landmarks and outline), a TensorFlow Lite reader and
interpreter (float ops, float16 weights folded; matches ai-edge-litert to ~1e-6), and
MediaPipe Face Landmarker (Google, Apache-2.0: BlazeFace + Face Mesh V2, 3.8 MB, pinned
SHA-256). The registry gains a task and authors per model; installed weights get a NOTICE.
- effectcraft-track: FaceTracker::new_with uses the model, falls back to the classical fitter
when it finds no face; chin and jaw come from the outline either way so measurements agree.
- Engine: roto_models becomes models (both tasks); face.models / face.model.* commands,
Settings ▸ Face Tracking, `wait` on select/install/download for scripts; track.mask reports
faceModel.
- Credits: ATTRIBUTION.md lists the optional models and the Apache-2.0 specs the code follows.
- Docs: README, ROADMAP (G7), gaps, parity (TRK-3 score unchanged pending G1), agents,
preferences, architecture, segment README.
