- file.relinkFootage (#461): close the params doc so checked execution
(MCP, control channel) rejects unknown keys; translate its menu entry.
- general.language lists Português (Brasil) (#217).
- docs/agents.md: set_property / add_keyframe take timeBase (#522).
- #299's MCP test no longer sends get_property a value.
- The Automatically Reload Footage sequence test uses PNG frames.
- h264_frames_at_reduced_sizes (#507): the bar depends on the fixture's
encoder; 50 dB with ffmpeg 6.1's x264.

The params parser reads ':' as the start of a value, so 'OpenType?:
discretionaryLigatures?' declared a bogus OpenType key and hid
discretionaryLigatures, and 'ss01?…ss20?' declared only ss01.

Ported onto the current language plumbing next to Spanish (catalog codes,
Match System for pt-* locales, native menu Services label, docs, tests);
the language list and settings validation stay the shared LANGUAGES table.

Image sequences are watched only with All Footage (the default,
Non-Sequence Footage, leaves them alone). Purge also forgets the viewer's
per-revision disk keys, which hash footage files' size and time, so a
file reloaded without a new revision is keyed again.

prop.deselect resolved its uid through prop_ref, which only finds leaf
properties, so mask.selected=false threw. Resolve it as prop.select does.

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).

The drag preview was a 1 px axis-aligned rectangle for every shape tool,
which read as no preview at all against most comps. Draw the tool's own
path instead (rectangle, rounded rectangle, ellipse, polygon, star), from
the engine's own geometry, filled with the Tools bar's Fill and outlined
in its Stroke, with a caption saying where the shape lands — a mask on
the selected layer, into the selected shape layer, or a new shape layer.
The ghost and the released shape go through one normalisation, so the
drag shows exactly what it commits: Alt (Option) draws from the press
point and Shift squares the box, both live. The drag also starts at the
press point now, not where the 6 px drag threshold was crossed, so the
shape is drawn from where the button went down, as in After Effects.
file.uninstallScript and script_code joined the name from the request into
Scripts/<name> and handed it to the settings store, so "../.." reached files
outside the settings folder (uninstall deleted them; run-by-name ran them).
Accept only bare file names (and, on Windows, none of its reserved names),
require a .jsx/.js name, and skip refused names in the script list.

Cause: the browser build kept the desktop's cache budgets (1 GB layer
cache, 1 GB footage frame cache) inside the page's memory, which wasm32
caps at 4 GiB. FilmCraft's decoders keep up to 384 MB of decoded frames
per open movie beside them, so a comp of eight stacked 1080p H.264 clips
grew the page by about 55 MB/s while playing and ran it out of memory
after about 50 s ("unreachable": a failed allocation).
Fix: in the browser Prefs::cache_budgets keeps the Layer Cache within
512 MB and the Footage Frame Cache within 256 MB (WEB_LAYER_CACHE,
WEB_MEDIA_CACHE); smaller settings and the desktop are unchanged, and
the RAM preview keeps its budget. Docs (web, preferences) say so.
Tests: tests_m145::web_cache_budgets_leave_room_for_the_decoders: with
4 GB settings the web budgets are the caps, the desktop's are the
settings, and smaller settings stay as they are.

A frontend command (project.deleteWithoutConfirmation) so the shortcut is
listed and rebindable in Keyboard Shortcuts and runs by id over the
control channel and MCP. The UI runs project.delete for it.

A same-named file is used only when kind, size, codec, and for moving pictures the rate and duration agree. Symlinks are not followed, and duplicate names are left alone.
Add a Spanish catalog for the menus (618 entries), the computed titles and the macOS Services label, and list Español in the Language preference. Match System now maps es, es-ES, es_MX and es-419 to it. Add llopjulen to contributors/people.toml.

Cause: the config reader didn't know ColorSpaceTransform or
ExponentWithLinearTransform and passed colours through them silently.
Blender's Linear Rec.709 -> sRGB therefore stayed in its E-white XYZ
reference space (the blue cast) without the sRGB curve. Display
colorspaces, view transforms, v2 views, looks, AllocationTransform,
BuiltinTransform and .spi1d / .spimtx files were missing too, and
nothing told the user.
Fix (from the OCIO v2 documentation and the CLF "moncurve", not OCIO's
source): ExponentWithLinear, ColorSpace, Look, DisplayView, Allocation
and Builtin transforms (identity, ACES AP0/AP1 matrices, ACEScct /
ACEScc, the sRGB / P3 / Rec.1886 / gamma / PQ displays). RangeTransform
now clamps and takes one-sided ranges. Display colorspaces meet the
scene reference through the default view transform. Added v2 views,
view looks, the looks section and .spi1d / .spi3d / .spimtx files. A
conversion is built once as a flat list of steps (Config::path /
display_path) for both the CPU effect and the GPU colour program (new
moncurve and clamp ops and the ACEScc curve; a program over the
kernel's 255 ops renders on the CPU). Named-transform resolution is
limited to 16 levels and 4096 steps, and YAML nesting to 64 levels, so
hostile or looping configs stop. Transforms that are still unsupported
(Grading Primary / Tone, ACES output, HLG…), unreadable configs and
unknown spaces are now reported: a warning under the effect in Effect
Controls, and the new effect.warning query.
Tests: ocio_config::blender_like_config_converts_linear_rec709_to_srgb
(CST, display colorspaces, v1 / v2 views, allocation, looks, builtin,
range, loops), moncurve_matches_srgb_and_inverts, builtin_styles,
yaml_nesting_is_bounded, ocio::spi_files_parse,
tests_effects::ocio_effect_warns_about_unsupported_config_transforms,
gpu tests_fx_lut::ocio_custom_config_v2 (GPU = CPU).

Cause: float footage (OpenEXR, float TIFF) was always sRGB-encoded on
decode, and Interpret Footage could not turn that off, so an OCIO effect
on the layer converted values that were already encoded.
Fix: After Effects' Interpret Footage ▸ Color ▸ Preserve RGB
(Footage::preserve_rgb; file.interpretFootage {"preserveRgb": true}; a
checkbox in the Interpret Footage form; Remember / Apply Interpretation
carry it). The decoder keeps float values linear, and the working-space
conversion from the colour profile and Interpret As Linear Light don't
apply, so the file's values enter the composition unconverted. The media
cache key includes the flag, so both interpretations decode separately.
Tests: pool::preserve_rgb_reads_float_exr_values_unconverted,
tests_color::preserve_rgb_footage_is_not_converted (managed, linearized
and not), tests_proxy::guess_alpha_invert_and_linear_light (command,
render, Apply Interpretation).

Right-clicking a property's name in the Timeline did nothing, so
Position's dimensions could be separated only from the Graph Editor.
As in After Effects, it now opens the property's menu: Reset, Edit
Value…, Separate Dimensions (Position and, once separated, X / Y / Z
Position, checked), Add / Remove Expression and Add Property to
Essential Graphics. Only Position separates, as in After Effects
(Scale stays one property).
`prop.reset` without `default` used to leave the value as it was: it
now gives the property its own default (an effect parameter's, or a
Transform property's, shared with Layer ▸ Transform ▸ Reset), which
also makes the Properties panel's Reset reset the values. `prop.set
{layer, prop}` without `value` opens the value dialog, like
`keys.set`.
Tests: timeline_property_names_have_the_property_menu
(ui_blank_context_menus), reset_gives_a_property_its_default (engine).

Dropping the expression pick whip on one of a property's values (the X
of Position) referenced the whole property. As in After Effects, a
drop on one value now picks that dimension: `transform.position[0]`;
a drop on the name still picks the whole property.
`prop.pickWhip` takes `target.dimension`.
The rest of #363 is unchanged: inserting at the cursor landed with
#284, and After Effects' property pick whip in the Parent & Link
column is left for later.
Tests: pick_whip_picks_one_dimension_of_the_target (engine),
the_expression_pick_whip_picks_the_dimension_it_is_dropped_on
(ui_inline_edit).

#402 made Effect Controls' rows compact and aligned, as After Effects
draws them, and also added thin separator lines between parameter rows
in Effect Controls and the Timeline, with a Settings > Appearance > Show
Parameter Row Separators preference. After Effects has neither, so the
lines, the preference and the Tokens field go; the compact rows, the
alignment and the automation ids stay.
Saved settings with the old key load as before (unknown keys are
ignored).
Test: ui_parameter_spacing keeps the row geometry, hit target and
nesting tests; the separator tests go with the feature.

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).
Docs: plugins.md (bundled extensions), parity.md, gaps.md G8, agents.md.
Test: app_settings_last_between_runs,
per_key_methods_keep_the_key_selection_and_report_eases_as_they_play,
spatial_tangents_are_reported_as_the_path_plays (each fails before),
the_ease_presets_panel_eases_every_selected_pair_in_one_undo_step,
a_typed_curve_scales_to_each_dimension_and_follows_motion_paths,
user_presets_save_rename_delete_and_persist,
presets_saved_by_the_old_core_panel_carry_over (script, through the
panel's controls), ease_presets_panel_eases_the_selected_keys_from_its_list
(UI: the panel docks and a click on a preset eases the keys).

EffectCraft's extension points compared with After Effects' (public
user guide and Scripting Guide) are now in docs/plugins.md, which
becomes "Plug-ins and extensions": scripts, ScriptUI panels and effect
plug-ins, with a short guide and an example panel for writing your own.
ScriptUI panels already came from `Scripts/ScriptUI Panels/` in the
settings folder, were listed at the bottom of the Window menu and
docked as tabs. What was missing: After Effects reopens the panels
that were open when it quit. Now the open panels are remembered in
`scriptui_panels.json` in the settings folder (a panel is added when
it opens and dropped when its tab or its script closes it; quitting
leaves the list), and `window.restoreScriptPanels` opens them again;
the desktop and web apps run it at start-up. A panel whose script is
gone or fails is reported and forgotten, and the others still open.
Where a panel was docked isn't kept, as workspace layouts aren't saved
between launches.
Gaps recorded in plugins.md and gaps.md G8: the Startup and Shutdown
script folders, keyboard shortcuts for scripts, ExtendScript's
`#include` / `#target` directives and `.jsxbin`.
Test: open_panels_open_again_at_the_next_launch (fails before: no
restore command), a_panel_dropped_in_the_folder_is_listed_and_opens_as_a_panel
(script), panels_open_at_quit_dock_again_at_launch (UI: the restored
panel docks with its controls; closing the tab forgets it).

The Tools bar's Snapping options menu (#265) offered per-feature
toggles (Edges, Corners, Centers, Anchor Points, Mask and Shape Path
Points) that After Effects' Snapping menu doesn't have. It now has the
two After Effects has:
- Snap Edges Extended (as before).
- Snap to Features in Collapsed Compositions and Text Layers: the
visible layers inside a precomp layer with Collapse Transformations
on are snap targets too, mapped into the outer comp (points always,
edge lines while the precomp layer is unrotated); a snap highlights
the precomp layer. Nested collapsed precomps are followed eight deep.
Every layer feature snaps again (corners, edge midpoints, centre,
anchor point, mask and shape path points); the snapping engine itself
is unchanged. `view.snappingOptions` takes `edgesExtended` and
`collapsedFeatures` (and `toggle` of either); the old keys are refused.
Test: collapsed_precomp_features_snap (fails before: no such option),
snapping_options_command_sets_and_toggles (the per-feature keys are
refused), snapping_options_pick_the_targets (AE behaviour kept: edges
extended or not, hidden layers, guides only), and the Snapping menu UI
test (only the two options are listed).
