Problem: In Advanced 3D, an extruded shape or text layer was one mesh in
its paint colour. After Effects colours the front, bevel, side and back
of an extrusion separately (shape Contents ▸ Add ▸ Front/Bevel/Side/Back,
text Animate ▸ Front/Bevel/Side/Back), and EffectCraft had none of it.
Fix: The extruder can split its mesh by surface (front cap, bevel rings,
walls, back cap). Shape layers get Front / Bevel / Side / Back contents
items (layer.addShapeItem kinds frontColor…backColor, one item per
group, colouring every paint of the group and its nested groups; the
innermost wins). Text animators get Front / Bevel / Side / Back Color,
blended over the character's fill or stroke by the selection. Paints
with a surface colour render as one mesh per surface. Menus, the
Contents Add: pop-up and the menu translations list them. The other
surface material properties (Ambient, Diffuse, Specular, Metal,
Reflection, ...) remain.

Problem: with no working space and Working Gamma 2.4, a linear EXR still
converted with the sRGB curve (0.18 -> 0.4627, After Effects 0.4902):
float footage was sRGB-encoded at decode, before the render knew the
project's curve. Interpret As Linear Light on float footage then encoded
a second time (0.18 -> 0.7255).
Fix: FootageSource::frame_with asks for float footage with a FloatCurve
(sRGB, a pure 2.4 power curve, or as stored). The renderer asks for the
Working Gamma's curve when unmanaged, sRGB when managed, and the stored
values when Interpret As Linear Light encodes them afterwards.
MediaPool decodes float values that way (Preserve RGB still reads them
as stored) and caches each curve apart.

Problem: the Media Browser lists .tga and .hdr files (and groups them into
image sequences), but media::is_importable had neither extension and the
still decoder never tried them, so importing them failed.
Fix: enable the image crate's built-in tga and hdr decoders (no new
dependency), add both to STILL_EXTENSIONS and the File > Import dialog, and
pick a still's format by signature with an extension fallback, since Targa
has no signature. Radiance HDR is linear float light and is sRGB-encoded like
OpenEXR (super-white kept); Targa alpha goes through the existing
unlabeled-alpha interpretation.

Problem: After Effects 26 imports FBX models into Advanced 3D comps; File > Import rejected
.fbx, so FBX product shots and scenes could not be used.
Fix: a clean-room FBX 7.x reader in effectcraft-model (binary node records with 32/64-bit
offsets and zlib arrays, ASCII syntax) and a scene builder: meshes with normals, UVs and
per-polygon materials, the Model hierarchy with the SDK transform (pivots, offsets, pre/post
rotation, rotation order, geometric transform), Lambert/Phong materials onto
metallic-roughness with embedded or relative textures, and GlobalSettings axes turned to
Y-up. Wired into import, probing, the media browser and the file dialog. Hostile input
(truncation, corruption, huge arrays, deep nesting) fails with an error.

Problem: After Effects 26.3 pastes copied vector artwork as shape layers. Edit ▸ Paste only
knew the app's own clipboard, so SVG markup on the system clipboard was ignored; turning SVG
into shapes needed an imported footage file and Create Shapes from Vector Layer.
Fix: a new `edit.pasteSvg {svg, name?, comp?}` command builds a shape layer from SVG text with
the same conversion as Create Shapes from Vector Layer (paths, fills, strokes, gradients, clip
masks), above the selected layer with the SVG canvas centred in the comp, as one undo step;
oversized, non-SVG or shapeless text is rejected. In the UI, Ctrl/Cmd+V (and the native Edit ▸
Paste) run it when the system clipboard holds SVG. Copying in the app already replaces the
system clipboard with a note, so SVG there is newer than the app's clipboard.

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.

Problem: After Effects 26 imports STL models besides glTF and OBJ; we
refused .stl files, and the Media Browser and import dialog did not list
them as models.
Fix: a pure-Rust STL reader in effectcraft-model (binary and ASCII,
detected from the contents; several ASCII solids and polygon loops;
VisCAM/SolidView and Materialise Magics facet colours as plain
materials; Z-up turned to the model's Y-up; faceted normals from the
winding). Truncated, empty or non-finite input is an error, never a
crash. .stl is now a model extension for import, probing, the Media
Browser, the import dialog and the system report.

Settings > Appearance > UI Scale offered only 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 and
200 %, so a size between 75 and 100 wasn't possible. It is now the shared
numeric field (Kind::Int(75, 200, "%")): type or drag any whole
percentage. The engine already stored the scale as a clamped integer and
the UI applies it with set_zoom_factor, so the range, the default, live
preview, Cancel and saved preferences are unchanged; the preset list
goes.
Numeric settings now apply a typed number once it is entered (Enter or
leaving the field), not at every keystroke: typing 85 used to apply the
partial 8, clamped to 75, and resize the whole interface before the 5.
Dragging still applies as it moves.
Tests: the UI Scale test types 85 a key at a time (nothing applies and
the field keeps the keyboard until Enter), Cancel, 50 and 300 clamp to
75 and 200, 90 with OK, and a new app with the saved preferences starts
at 90 %. The GPU Information transaction test types 125.
The Timeline's "Edit Gradient…" on a gradient property (Gradient Fill /
Gradient Stroke ▸ Colors, Gradient Overlay) only painted its label. It now
opens a Gradient Editor (prop.editGradient): opacity stops above a preview
bar and colour stops below. Click to add a stop (it takes that track's
own value there), drag or type a Location to move it, set its opacity or
colour (egui's colour picker), Delete removes it (never the last of a
track, never while typing). The tracks stay in order while editing and the
selection follows its stop.
The editor works on a draft. OK sets the property once with prop.set at
the composition time it opened, snapped to the frame, with
timeBase: "comp" (offset and stretched layers get the key where it was
opened): one undo step, and nothing at all when the draft is unchanged, so
OK adds no keyframe. Cancel and Escape change nothing; Escape with the
picker open closes only the picker. On an animated gradient only the
keyframe at that time changes; when its stop counts no longer match a
neighbouring keyframe's (gradients only blend with equal counts) the
editor says so. The draft is saved in the typed form, so one colour stop
and each stop's RGBA survive.
prop.editGradient checks its target is a gradient property before the UI
opens anything, so agents get an error for a wrong one. New Gradient
color_at / opacity_at sample one track each (sample() multiplies opacity
in, which would apply it twice to a new stop).
Tests: ui_gradient_value (fails on main: the value had no automation id),
ui_gradient_editor (11), gradient_editor and keyframe unit tests.
* Release prep: bump to 0.8.0 and add a Linux riscv64 release build
- release.yml: new `linux-riscv64` job, ported from GridCraft. It cross-compiles on
ubuntu-24.04 against riscv64 libraries from ports.ubuntu.com (the Linux job's X11/Wayland/GL
-dev packages plus ALSA), ships effectcraft-<v>-linux-riscv64.tar.gz, and smoke-tests
effectcraft-cli under qemu-riscv64. The draft-release job now needs it, so its tarball is
uploaded and covered by SHA256SUMS.txt.
- packaging/linux/package.sh: cross-compiles when CROSS_ARCH/CROSS_TARGET/CROSS_COMPILE are set
(cargo --target, the cross strip, the EMULATOR smoke test), as GridCraft's does.
- Version 0.7.0 -> 0.8.0 (cargo xtask version set), Cargo.lock refreshed.
- README and docs/releasing.md list the riscv64 tarball.

* Fix FreeBSD CI: pointer_wrap test harness, wasm32 target, clippy as_chunks
- pointer_wrap tests: the harnesses dropped run_ui's FullOutput with the font atlas upload still
in textures_delta, and epaint 0.36's drop check panics on that in debug builds. Every
pointer_wrap test failed on every platform; FreeBSD is the only CI that runs them. Clear the
delta, as the other UI tests do.
- freebsd.yml: install wasm32-unknown-unknown in the VM. Without it the host plug-in test's build
of examples/plugins/posterize-bands failed (E0463, no std) and the test skipped silently; now
it builds and runs.
- media/convert.rs: chunks_exact(2) -> as_chunks::<2>() (clippy chunks_exact_to_as_chunks,
new in Rust 1.99); same pairs, same dropped remainder.

Preserve legacy selection repair, modifier routing, viewer lifecycle and workspace persistence through the shared docking integration. Qualify the complete workspace gate by refreshing the 18 stale Audio Spectrum hashes for the existing linear renderer, with an independent synthetic-tone regression.
`effectcraft-cli mcp` had no way to keep an agent's file access to a folder;
the flags were unknown options. Both now take a folder (repeatable, as in
PhotoCraft): with either given, files are read only under a read or write root
and written only under a write root (none: no writes). Defaults are unchanged.
automation::confine::Confinement checks every engine command the backend runs
(execute_command, command_run, open/save_project, each engine.batch step), in
both headless and bridge mode, before it runs: the file parameters of the
commands that read or write files must be absolute paths inside the roots
(symbolic links resolved through the longest existing ancestor, `..` refused),
as must any other absolute path in a command's parameters. Commands that write
where they aren't told are checked against the target they would write: Save /
Increment and Save the open project's file, renderQueue.render every queued
output (renderQueue.list). Scripts, Execute File, Reveal in Finder, Open Recent
by index, `$N` file-path references in a batch, render_frame/screenshot paths
outside a write root and the bridge's UI-driving tools are refused while
confined. docs/mcp.md describes it.
Test: a confined headless server opens and saves inside its roots and is refused
outside them, for a relative path, `..`, a batch step, a `$N` path, Save to a
read-only root's project, the Render Queue's default output there, a symbolic
link out of the write root, and scripts; the unconfined server still writes
anywhere.

Measured against After Effects 26.3 with the original
examples/ae-spatial-tangents.jsx (three paths, ten keys, even and uneven
timing): an auto-Bezier key's out tangent is (next - previous) / 6 and
the in tangent its mirror, whatever the key times; an end key uses its
one neighbour, (neighbour - key) / 6. EffectCraft gave end keys none and
scaled middle tangents by segment length, so paths with auto-Bezier keys
ran up to 28 px from AE's. All ten tangents now match; path samples are
within 0.05 px.
Tests that relied on end keys having no tangent now expect AE's: Spatial
Bezier keeps auto keys' handles (linear keys still get a third), the
motion-path handle is drawn at a sixth, and a straight loopOut path is
compared within 1e-9. docs/fidelity records the method and scores.

The UI behaves as in After Effects (the Import dialog's Sequence checkbox
starts off, dropped files are stills, dropped folders make sequences), but
file.import without sequence or drag keeps importing a numbered still's
run, so existing scripts and agents keep working.

Cause: Apply Color LUT's only parameter, `lut`, was ParamUi::Hidden (set only
through commands), so the effect could not be used from the UI. Effect
Controls also had no widget for any ParamUi::Text parameter (only EXtractoR's
channels had one), so Cryptomatte's Selection, the OCIO effects' config file /
file / config names and Colorama's Output Cycle could not be set either.
Fix: a new ParamUi::File { filters } for paths. Effect Controls shows the
file's name (None when empty) and a Choose... button that opens the host's
file dialog with those extensions and sets the path (prop.set, so agents use
the same command). As in After Effects, applying an effect with an empty file
parameter from the UI (Effect menu, Last Effect, drops, Effects & Presets)
opens the file dialog straight away; cancelling keeps the effect without a
file. Apply Color LUT's LUT (.cube) and the OCIO Config File (.ocio) and File
(.cube/.3dl/.csp/.cc/.ccc/.cdl/.spi1d/.spi3d/.spimtx) use it. Text
parameters get a single-line field that sets the value when it loses the
focus (Esc keeps the old text). Saved projects are upgraded on open: a
Hidden or Text parameter whose spec is now a File parameter takes the File
UI and keeps its path (effects::migrate). docs/effects.md regenerated.
This covers #473's first part (the Selection field); picking mattes in the
viewer, the layer popup from the file's metadata, the GPU path and quoted
commas are separate.
Tests: effects hidden_and_text_paths_become_file_parameters (migration); ui
file_and_text_parameters_have_widgets (the LUT is asked for on apply and
inverts red to cyan, the Choose... button picks another LUT, typing into
Cryptomatte's Selection sets it).

(cherry picked from commit 403863f703999d19d3a83d9976f76bdc7577e682)
Cause: SequenceOptions::from_params defaulted `sequence` to true for
file.import, so any numbered still (IMG_0001.jpg) brought its whole numbered
run from its folder, and several picked or dropped stills with a common
prefix became one sequence. Dropped files never asked, and the Import
dialog's "<format> Sequence" checkbox started ticked.
Fix, matching After Effects: file.import takes picked and dropped files as
stills unless `sequence: true` (the Import dialog's Sequence checkbox, which
now starts unticked; Force Alphabetical Order implies it), while the numbered
stills inside a picked or dropped folder still import as sequences
(SequenceOptions::folders), and `sequence: false` (Alt-drag of a folder)
imports a folder's files one by one. Replace Footage, reload, proxies and
render outputs keep detecting their sequence (SequenceOptions::default and
from_params are unchanged), and mediaBrowser.import keeps bringing a numbered
still's run unless `sequence: false`. docs/footage.md and docs/agents.md
describe the new defaults.
Tests: sequence import_takes_stills_unless_asked_for_a_sequence and engine
numbered_stills_import_as_stills_by_default (one dropped still and two picked
IMG_ stills stay stills, a dropped folder makes one sequence, the checkbox
brings the run); the existing sequence tests pass `sequence: true`; ui
import_dialog_offers_the_image_sequence_option (unticked by default: a still;
ticked: the run) and a_dropped_folder_imports_as_one_sequence_with_sequence_interpretation
(two dropped frames: two stills; the folder: one sequence).

On an ASUS G513QY (Radeon RX 6800M, Adrenalin 26.9.2, Windows 11) every
launch died with STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION inside amdvlk64.dll, on a
driver worker thread, a moment after the first frame: eframe shows the
window it created hidden, the resulting resize re-creates the swapchain,
and the driver crashes there (same offset on two driver versions, with
the OBS/Steam/Epic Vulkan layers disabled, and with FIFO, immediate and
latency-1 presentation). DirectX 12 and OpenGL open the window fine.
A crash in a driver can't be caught, and the launch guard (#243) removed
its marker at the first frame, so this looked like a successful launch
every time and Window Graphics never switched. The marker now stays
until the window has kept drawing for SETTLE (3 s) or the app quits
normally before that; frame_drawn returns the time left and the app
asks for a repaint then, so an idle window settles too. The notice,
the Settings note and docs/preferences.md describe the new rule.
Verified on that machine with a scratch settings folder: launch 1
(Vulkan) crashed and left the marker, launch 2 switched to OpenGL with
the notice and closed with exit code 0, launch 3 stayed on OpenGL
without the notice.
Tests: effectcraft launch_guard
a_launch_that_stops_after_its_first_frame_switches_the_next_to_opengl
(a first frame then drop: the next launch gets GL and the notice; a
normal quit in that time leaves no marker), and the existing test now
asserts that the first frames don't settle a launch (marker present at
SETTLE/2, gone at SETTLE).

A footage file the automatic reload couldn't read (still being written, or
one the importer doesn't read) kept its old stamp, so every two-second look
saw it as changed and probed it again. It now keeps its new stamp and is
tried again once it changes again (when the other app finishes writing it).

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).

Cause: at Half, Third and Quarter resolution (the viewer's Auto resolution
in most windows) every movie frame was converted from Y'CbCr to f32 RGBA at
full size and then resampled down. In the browser (wasm, one thread) that
was about 8 ms converting a 1080p frame, 6 ms resampling it and 2 ms
zeroing a 33 MB buffer, per layer and frame, for a frame shown at a
quarter or a ninth of its pixels; the footage frame cache held the
full-size frames.
Fix: FootageSource::frame_at_size asks for a frame shown at a given size
(default: the full frame, as before). The renderer asks for it where it
resampled footage (below 3/4 scale; not for proxies, fields or Interpret
Footage's pixel options, which need the full frame). MediaPool makes opaque
4:2:0 movie frames of the footage's own size there: it box-filters them to
half size in Y'CbCr before converting (each 2x2 block of luma, and the
[1 6 1]/8 neighbourhood of its chroma sample, which is the mean of the
upsampled chroma its pixels get), resamples the rest of the way and caches
the result per size. Conversion is linear until colours clip, so this is
the RGB box filter resample starts with, except in blocks where some
colours clip. Other frames convert at full size and resample as before.
In the browser the conversion and resampling take about 4 ms instead of
16. Docs (architecture).
Tests:
- convert::scaled_conversion_matches_resampling_the_converted_frame: half,
third, quarter and odd sizes of an unclipped 4:2:0 frame are within 1e-5
of resampling the converted frame; larger sizes, odd frame sizes and
4:4:4 convert at full size.
- tests_footage_size::reduced_renders_take_footage_resampled_by_the_source:
a source that resamples frames itself renders the same frames as one
that doesn't, at 8 and 32 bpc and every resolution, and is asked only
below 3/4 scale, and not with Invert Alpha.
- footage::h264_frames_at_reduced_sizes (ffmpeg fixture): 1080p H.264
testsrc2 frames, whose saturated colours clip, at 960x540, 640x360,
480x270 and 323x182 are 58-62 dB from the resampled full frames, and
are cached per size.
- convert's ignored 1080p bench also times the conversion at a third.

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 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.
Cause: CC Particle World projected its particles through a fixed camera
(distance 2 layer widths, looking at the layer centre) and never asked the
host for the comp camera, so moving or orbiting a camera layer left the
particles flat on the layer. It also had no Extras > Effect Camera. Separately,
the layer cache key ignored the comp camera and lights, so the effects that
read them (Card Dance / Shatter / Card Wipe Comp Camera, First Comp Light,
Caustics) kept a stale frame when the camera, a light or the layer moved.
Fix: as the Cycore manual describes, Particle World sees its particles through
the comp's active camera layer when there is one (EffectHost::comp_scene now
says whether its camera is a camera layer's, CompScene::camera_layer), through
card3d's comp-camera projection (factored out of Card Dance as comp_proj, with
Proj::view for depth, size scale and screen velocity). Otherwise it uses the
new Extras > Effect Camera: Distance (2), Rotation X / Y / Z (0) and FOV (50)
orbit the world origin; FOV moves the camera so the origin's plane keeps the
scale Distance gives it, so the defaults reproduce the old fixed camera bit for
bit (golden hashes unchanged) and old projects render as before. The Effect
Camera is left out of the simulation cache key, so animating it doesn't
restart the simulation. The plan is shared, so the GPU compositor follows too.
The layer cache folds the comp scene into the key of layers running an effect
in effects::READS_COMP_SCENE (render::comp_scene is shared with the host).
Tests: sim particle_world_follows_the_comp_camera (panning a camera layer moves
the particles, zooming spreads them, the Effect Camera is ignored then, the
default view keeps the Effect Camera, cameras facing away / zero / NaN draw
nothing) and particle_world_effect_camera (missing params = defaults, rotation,
distance and FOV change the view, extremes stay finite, the sim key ignores the
camera); render particle_world_follows_the_comp_camera (a real camera layer
panned 40 px moves the particles left, and the cached render after the move
equals an uncached one: it failed with the old cache key); gpu
particle_world_through_the_comp_camera (CPU vs GPU at 8 / 32 bpc, full and
half resolution). particle_golden / sim_golden unchanged. effects.md
regenerated; parity.md and gaps.md describe the fix.

What: each property row that can take an expression (it has a stopwatch) now
has a property pick whip in the Parent & Link column, as in After Effects
CC 2018 and later (automation id `timeline.prop.<uid>.propertyPickWhip`).
Dragged onto another property's name or one of its values, it runs
`prop.pickWhip`: the reference is added as the property's expression, or
replaces the one it has, and the expression is enabled. A drop on one value
picks that dimension (`position[1]`).
The parent, expression and property pick whips share one widget and one
drop path (rubber band, autoscroll, dimension pick); only the expression
pick whip inserts at the cursor of an expression being edited.
Pick whips (expression and property) now also drop on properties in
Effect Controls: its property rows register as targets while a pick whip
is dragged, with their per-dimension value fields.
Why: the last part of #363. Adobe's docs say the Property Link pick whip
adds the expression without enabling expressions first, and a pick whip
outside an edit replaces the whole expression text. No modifier keys for
the property pick whip are documented, so none are implemented.
Tests: `the_property_pick_whip_links_a_property_to_another` (ui_inline_edit)
drops it on a property's name, on one of Position's values, on a property
with a disabled expression (replaced and enabled), on an Effect Controls
slider and one value of a point, and on itself (no change). It fails
before the change; with Effect Controls' targets removed it fails at the
slider. Looked at the result with the headless snapshot.

Follow-ups from the #365 review:
- serve() no longer hangs when a reply cannot be written: the stdin reader thread is
detached instead of scoped, so a failed write returns at once rather than waiting for a
read that only ends at EOF. serve() now takes a 'static reader (serve_stdio is unchanged).
- A test pins down requests during a render: a second render is refused however it is
started (blocking, wait: false, inside a batch), and edits apply to the project while the
job keeps rendering its snapshot.
- docs/mcp.md: isError is true for any JSON result with failed > 0; what requests mean
mid-render; wait: false renders are polled with renderQueue.list.

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,

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).

Cause: a multi-layer OpenEXR without an unnamed RGB layer showed its
first colour layer unless one was named combined / beauty / rgba. A
Blender compositor File Output names the beauty pass "Image", and its
Cryptomatte layers (lowercase r, g, b, a) sort first, so the picture was
CryptoMaterial00.
Fix: the picture is the unnamed RGB layer, else the beauty pass by the
last part of its name (Combined, Beauty, Image, RGBA, RGB, Color), else
the first colour layer that isn't a data pass (Cryptomatte, depth, mist,
normals, vectors, positions, IDs). A layer without R, G and B shows its
own first channel as grey. After Effects shows a file's main RGBA and
leaves the other layers to EXtractoR, which is unchanged.
Tests: exr_channels::layered_exr_shows_the_beauty_pass_not_cryptomatte
(the reported Blender layout, ViewLayer.Combined, no beauty name,
data-only files).

Cause: Auto dropped to Half below 75 % magnification, so text between
50 % and 75 % was rendered with fewer pixels than the screen shows and
looked soft. Below 100 % the frame texture was minified with a plain
bilinear sampler and no mip levels (Full at 46 % skipped most frame
pixels), so edges stair-stepped.
Fix:
- Auto renders the pixels the magnification needs, as in After Effects:
the coarsest whole factor that still gives every screen pixel a
rendered one (Full above 50 %, Half down to 33.3 %, Third down to
25 %, Quarter below).
- GPU frames: the display texture carries a full mip chain, each level
the 2 x 2 mean of the one above (display.wgsl `mip`, same bind group
layout as `display`), sampled trilinearly with Viewer Zoom Quality
More Accurate (Faster keeps the nearest pixel of the full-size frame).
- CPU frames (egui-wgpu textures have no mips): uploaded averaged down
by the whole factor that leaves about one texel per screen pixel, the
same box average as the texture-limit fit (#201), re-uploaded when the
magnification calls for another factor; drawn with texture coordinates
that keep each texel over its pixels when the size isn't a multiple.
Show Channel / exposure textures follow.
Tests: gpu tests::display_frames_are_mipmapped (level count and level 1
= 2 x 2 means of level 0), viewer_tools

minified_frames_keep_their_texels_in_place.

Text is vector in After Effects and stays sharp at any Scale. Here a
text layer was drawn at its font size and the bitmap resampled by Scale
unless Continuously Rasterize was on, so text grown with Scale went soft.
This reworks #200 (reverted in 29c4d3a for kinetic_typography).
Why kinetic_typography failed: its time remap key at 1.9 s sits on
frame 23 (1.917 s), so main-comp 0.3 s shows the precomp at 1.6026 s,
but the test compared it with the precomp rendered at 1.6 s. The moving,
motion-blurred title already differed by 0.89 of the 1.0 mean-difference
budget on main (0.987 in all); with continuous rasterisation the "Sub"
line, whose expression scale is 84.00 % at 1.6 s and 84.105 % at
1.6026 s, falls on either side of the 2^-1/4 quarter-octave step and was
drawn at 0.84 at one time and at 1.0 at the other, pushing the total to
1.075.
Fix: raster_scale treats text layers as always continuously rasterised
(shape layers and vector footage still follow the switch), and rounds
the quarter-octave step up past rounding noise only: an unscaled layer
at a fractional position measured its scale as 1 + 1e-15 and was
rasterised at 2^1/4, softening unscaled text. The QA test now compares
the remapped precomp with the precomp at the time the remap really
shows (read back from the property): difference 0.63, all of it the
title's motion blur, the Sub line identical.
Tests: tests_collapse::text_scaled_up_stays_sharp_without_the_switch
(from #200: 10 px text at 800 % matches 80 px text),
tests_collapse::unscaled_text_rasterises_at_the_output_scale (fails
without the noise tolerance), automation qa kinetic_typography.

Cause: the interior styles were blended over the layer body with the
content's coverage folded into their opacity. On an edge pixel at 50 %
coverage a Gradient or Color Overlay went over the half-transparent body
as a half-transparent layer, so the result kept a quarter of the layer's
own fill and its alpha rose to 0.75: a light rim (the white fill
showing through) on styled text.
Fix: blend_clipped composites the interior styles (Gradient Overlay,
Color Overlay, Satin, Inner Glow, Inner Shadow and the inside of
Stroke) onto the layer within its shape: the body is divided by the
content coverage, blended with the style at its own opacity, and
multiplied back, so the alpha is kept and an edge pixel mixes the style
with the layer's colour inside the shape only, as a clipped layer does.
Fill Opacity and Blend Interior Styles as Group behave as before.
Tests: tests_styles::overlays_leave_antialiased_edges_clean (a masked
square with half-covered edge columns; Color Overlay, Gradient Overlay
and an inside Stroke now match a plain layer of the overlay colour;
Color Overlay's edge was 0.41 red against 0.23 before).

Cause: each glyph's fill was rasterised and composited on its own, so
where two glyphs share an edge (the crossbars of "ff") two half-covered
pixels composited to 0.75 coverage instead of 1: a thin light seam,
where After Effects draws the line as one outline.
Fix: consecutive fill passes of the same opaque colour, without Blur,
under Normal Inter-Character Blending are rasterised as one coverage
mask (the glyphs' outlines in layer space, wound the same way so
overlaps add up under NonZero). Characters of other colours, translucent
or blurred ones, strokes and the other blending modes are drawn one by
one as before.
Tests: text::tests::touching_glyphs_join_without_a_seam (two glyphs
sharing an edge mid-pixel: 0.75 before, 1.0 now; opposite windings and
overlaps stay filled; other colours and Multiply still composite one by
one).

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`.

Tab in a value being typed (hot text) dropped the keyboard: egui moved
the focus to the next widget, and the inline editors asked for the
focus again every frame, which also reset what keys a field keeps for
itself.
As in After Effects, Tab now commits the value and types in the next
value field of the same panel (the next dimension, then the next
property's), Shift+Tab the previous one. The hot-text fields of each
panel register in drawing order; the dock tags each panel's Ui so the
order stays within it. `keep_focus` asks for the focus only when the
field doesn't have it.

The inline expression field took its height from the saved
expression, so lines typed into it ran over the rows below until the
expression was committed.
Its height now comes from the text being typed (up to 8 lines, as
before), and its bottom edge drags it to any height in whole lines, as
in After Effects; the dragged height is kept per property in the
Timeline state (`expr_lines`).

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.

A pick whip dragged to the top or bottom of the Timeline's layers left
them where they were, so a property out of view couldn't be picked.
While a pick whip (expression or parent) is held within a row of the
top or bottom edge of the layers, or past it, the layers scroll that
way, faster the deeper, as in After Effects.

The Time Display Style could only be changed in Project Settings. As in
After Effects, Ctrl-click (Cmd-click on macOS) on the current-time
display of the Timeline or the Composition panel now toggles it between
Timecode and Frames (Feet + Frames goes to Timecode). It runs
`file.projectSettings {timeDisplay}`, so it is one undo step.
Under the Timeline's display the other style shows now (frames under
timecode, timecode under frames), as in After Effects; it always showed
frames.

Every bounding-box handle in the Composition viewer showed the
north-west / south-east resize cursor, so two corners and all four
edges showed the wrong direction.
Each handle now takes the cursor along the direction it scales, worked
out from the on-screen box: a corner points between its two edges (the
box's diagonal whatever its proportions), an edge handle across its
edge. The cursors turn with the layer's rotation, as in After Effects.

Cause: pipeline::Cx rendered with Backend::Auto, which picks the CPU or the
GPU compositor for each top-level frame from measured frame times
(render::AutoPick: warm-up on both sides, a re-probe every 48 frames). The
two compositors differ slightly, so frames came out differently depending
on which side the timings favoured in that run, and two GPU exports of the
same frames differed.
Fix: the job renders every frame on the project's renderer, as After
Effects renders a job with one renderer: Backend::Gpu with Mercury GPU
Acceleration (frames the GPU declines still render on the CPU, as they do
in every GPU render), Backend::Cpu with Mercury Software Only. The viewer
and previews keep Auto. Docs (architecture, parity, web) say so.
Tests: render_settings::a_job_renders_on_one_compositor exports ten frames
with a stand-in GPU compositor that keeps Auto history and draws solid
green: with Mercury GPU Acceleration every frame is green and two runs are
identical (with Auto the warm-up sent frames to the CPU: it fails), with
Software Only the stand-in is never asked. The web worker GPU job test's
comment no longer describes Auto.

Cause: pipeline::Cx::render_at built the job's Renderer without a layer
cache, so every layer of every frame rendered from scratch (source, masks,
effects, styles), and the GPU compositor, whose uploads are keyed by the
cached buffers, uploaded every layer again on every frame.
Fix: each job (Cx) owns a LayerCache, the cache type the viewer uses, with
its default budget (1 GiB, the default Settings > Memory & CPU layer cache),
shared by the job's parallel frames and dropped with the job. With deferred
GPU readbacks it holds the accelerator's miss gate, as the job workers'
caches do. Cx::renderer builds the job's renderer (options, accelerator,
cache) for render_at and the test.
Tests: pipeline::tests::layers_render_once_per_job exports ten frames of a
solid animated only in Transform: the cache misses of the first frame are
the only ones (it fails without the cache: no layer is cached), and every
frame equals the frame rendered without the cache.

#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).

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`.

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

extended or not, hidden layers, guides only), and the Snapping menu UI

After Effects' Interpret Footage has Start Timecode: Use Source File
Timecode, or Override Start, which changes the timecode the footage
shows and leaves its frames alone. The Start Frame field that trimmed or
padded a sequence's head isn't in After Effects, so it is replaced.
Footage.start_timecode (Override Start, in frames at the footage's
rate; None = Use Source, 0 as file timecode isn't read) relabels source
time: the Footage panel's current time and footage.info's `timecode`
count from it. file.interpretFootage takes `overrideStart` and
`startTimecode` (timecode, read at the footage's rate after any frame
rate change, or a frame number, 0 to 1e9). It applies to every footage
with time, not only sequences, and Reload keeps it. A sequence's frames
always run from its first file's number to its last.

interpret_footage_start_timecode_relabels_source_time (engine: the
