- Transform: Use Composition's Shutter Angle / Shutter Angle, sampling the transform across
the shutter via EffectHost::params_at (EffectEnv::shutter carries the comp shutter when
motion blur is on); the GPU path defers to the CPU when blurring.
- Glow: Glow Operation (blend modes) and Glow Colors > Arbitrary Map.
- Cartoon: Advanced > Edge Enhancement (shock-filter sharpening / softening).

- Wave Type: Polygon, Image Contours (source layer channel threshold, pre-blur, tolerance,
contour index, source centre) and Mask, rippling outward from the outline (exact signed
distance transform, util::signed_distance).
- Parameters Are Set At Birth via the new EffectHost::params_at; Render Quality; Reflection
off the layer edges; Stroke Profile.

- Fill: Fill Mask, All Masks, Horizontal / Vertical Feather, Invert outside the mask
(GPU falls back to the CPU when masks are used).
- Refine Soft / Hard Matte: Reduce Chatter (temporal steadying of oscillating edges) and
Use Motion Blur (samples, shutter angle, higher quality) from neighbouring frames.

- Particle Exploder, Ephemeral Property Mapper (operators), Affects groups on every
producer / force / mapper (source, selection map, characters, age + feather).
- Full mapper target list (angle, torque, scale, gradient velocity/force, lifespan,
character, font size, time offset, scale speed...); old saves remap by label.
- Cannon / Grid text particles (stroke font), Auto-Orient Rotation, Layer Map draws the
map layer per particle with Time Offset Type / Time Offset.

- card3d: shared Camera System (Camera Position with rotations, X/Y position and
Transform Order; Corner Pins with focal length; Comp Camera via EffectHost::comp_scene),
Lighting (Distant / Point / First Comp Light, colour, position, depth, ambient) and
Material (diffuse, specular, highlight sharpness).
- Shatter: Custom Shatter Map (+ White Tiles Fixed), Gradient group, Textures group
(front/side/back modes and layers, colour, opacity) and extrusion side rendering.
- Card Wipe: true 3D cards, Back Layer as a layer parameter (old None/Self popup migrated),
Flip Direction, Position / Rotation Jitter.
- Renderer supplies the comp camera and first light to effects.

- Lumetri: HSL Secondary key/refine/correction with Show Mask, Hue vs Sat/Hue/Luma,
Luma vs Sat, Sat vs Sat and per-channel RGB curves, High Dynamic Range (HDR White /
Specular), Input LUT and Look (custom .cube + built-in looks).
- Hue/Saturation: Channel Control with Reds..Magentas ranges (range + fall-offs).
- Levels: Channel popup and Red/Green/Blue/Alpha controls; Curves: Channel parameter.
- catalog::param_shown: Effect Controls shows only what a popup selects.
- Timewarp Pixel Motion: block-matching flow (raster::flow::block_flow_window) with
Vector Detail, Smoothing, Error Threshold, Block Size, Weighting, Correct Luminance,
Filtering, Build From One Image; Matte Layer/Channel, Warp Layer, Show, Source Crops.
- GPU falls back to CPU when channel/range controls are used.

Text: text.animatorFontAxes (replaces the stub) lists the layer font's
variation axes (skrifa) or adds an animator property that offsets one axis
(weighted by the selectors, from the axis default); the renderer redraws each
character's outline at its design-space position (cached per location). The
Timeline's Animate: menu lists the font's axes.

Viewer: the region of interest has corner and edge handles that resize it
from the opposite corner/edge; Pan Behind snaps the anchor point (layer
features, guides, grid) and measures from the press point (it lagged by the
drag threshold); Choose Grid and Guide Options > 3D Reference Axes toggles a
world-axis triad seen through the view's camera (Settings > 3D).

ANM-4: the Graph Editor's reference graph and key snapping already existed;
Snap now also targets comp and layer markers, layer in/out points and the
work area (graph_tools::comp_snap_times), with a unit test.

LYR-9: Layer > Layer Styles > Layer Style Options... (layer.style.options)
and choosing a style from that menu open a Layer Style dialog: style list
with check boxes (Blending Options first) and the selected style's controls
built from its layerStyles properties, edited live through prop.set (one
undo step per control); Cancel rolls back everything done since it opened.

The 3D Camera Tracker analysis joins the offloaded jobs. The disk cache stays off in the
browser (std::env::temp_dir panics on wasm32 once a config store exists).

Text: vertical type turns Roman characters on their side (CJK stays
upright) unless Standard Vertical Roman Alignment is on; Tate-Chu-Yoko sets
selected characters horizontally in a one-em cell of the column (layer.setText
tateChuYoko / verticalRomanUpright, Character panel toggles). A Left-to-Right
paragraph is now forced LTR instead of auto-detected. The editing caret follows
animators and text on a path (render::text::caret_maps). Lottie export writes
per-character style runs as index-unit range animators.

Interface: Timeline outline columns wider than the pane scroll horizontally
(Shift+wheel/trackpad, scroll bar above the footer; headers clipped); the
Project panel's optional columns scroll under the frozen Name/Label columns.
ANM-1: keyframe colour labels (keys.setLabel, Label submenu, tinted key
icons) and Edit > Select Keyframe Label Group on selected/all layers and
visible keyframes (keys.selectLabelGroup replaces the stub). Alt-drag time
scaling of key groups already existed.

- Persistence: settings, shortcuts, recent projects, imported media, saved projects and
auto-saves live in OPFS (IndexedDB fallback) through an in-memory mirror flushed in the
background (apps/effectcraft-web/src/store.rs, persist.rs); ConfigStore gains FileOps so
auto-save / recovery work in the browser store; the session snapshot restores the last
project + editor state on reload; File > Open Recent works from storage.
- Audio: Web Audio output (AudioWorklet, ScriptProcessor fallback) fed by AudioPlayback::pump
on wasm32; A/V sync from AudioContext.currentTime; meters; unlock on first gesture.
- Background jobs: engine::offload (WorkerRequest/WorkerReply protocol, Offload trait,
run_request); Render Queue, tracker, mask tracker, Warp Stabilizer and Roto Freeze run in Web
Workers (a second engine instance on the shared compiled module), progress streamed back;
cancel terminates the worker.
- GPU: WebGPU viewer frames drawn straight from the compositor's texture (gpu_display on
wasm32 when the viewer draws plainly); async readback (Gpu::read_display_async) for pixels.
- PWA: manifest, service worker precaching the build (xtask fills list/version), icons copied
from assets/app-icon; COOP/COEP kept from cached responses; offline reload works.
- window.effectcraft: saveToBrowser, listStored, removeStored, flush; info() reports storage,
audio, gpu, workers.
- Tests: native store + protocol + offload (render, track, cancel) tests; smoke.mjs extended
(GPU path, worker render responsiveness, audio gesture + playback, reload persistence,
Open Recent, offline reload).

3D-1: Classic 3D depth of field renders the camera's Iris Shape (Fast
Rectangle box or Triangle…Decagon polygon), Iris Rotation, Roundness, Aspect
Ratio and Diffraction Fringe as a span-kernel gather blur, with Highlight
Gain/Threshold/Saturation boosting highlights first; tilted layers blur
progressively by per-pixel camera depth. Layer > Camera > Link Focus Distance
to Point of Interest / to Layer (expressions) and Set Focus Distance to Layer
replace the stubs.

Window > Essential Graphics: Primary comp, Solo Supported Properties (timeline filter),
template name, typed controls editing the source properties, drag a property name from the
timeline onto the list, rename/reorder/remove, Add Formatting (group, comment), Media
Replacement, Export Template, and the selected instance's Essential Properties with Revert /
Push. The comp viewer shows an expression error bar (click to reveal); the expression editor's
f button opens the categorised Expression Language menu. Project panel proxy switch; Interpret
Footage dialog gains Guess, matte colour, Invert Alpha, Separate Fields, Linear Light, Proxy.

Shapes (SHP-2): Stroke Taper (pixels/percent start/end length, width, ease) and
Wave (amount, pixels/cycles, wavelength, phase) rendered as a variable-width
outline; Dash 2/Gap 2/Dash 3/Gap 3 (shape.dashes.add/remove, timeline +/-
buttons); radial gradient Highlight Length/Angle as a focal gradient.
Masks (MSK-1): mask feather points on the Mask Path (mask.featherPoint.*,
Mask Feather tool add/drag), per-point signed radius and tension, rendered
from the signed distance to the path; carried through vertex edits.
Motion blur (LYR-10): Adaptive Sample Limit comp setting; 2D layers take one
sample per pixel of shutter travel between Samples Per Frame and the limit.

Items (footage and comps) carry a proxy rendered in their place at the source's size when
its switch and Render Settings > Proxy Use allow it; Create Proxy queues a half-resolution
render whose post-render action attaches it. Interpret Footage gains Separate Fields
(upper/lower first, fields become frames at twice the rate), Guess alpha with matte colour,
explicit matte colour, Invert Alpha, Interpret As Linear Light; non-square footage, solids
and precomps are stretched by their pixel aspect in the comp. The four proxy stubs are gone.

sampleImage renders the sampled layer through the evaluating renderer's footage source
(EvalCtx::footage), cached per thread and frame. File > Import reads .json/.csv/.tsv as data
footage kept in the project. expr.errors collects failing expressions for the error bar;
expr.languageMenu lists the categorised Expression Language menu. Marker keys expose
protectedRegion and cue points; colorDepth, timeToFeetAndFrames, comp.activeCamera.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Comps expose controls (properties typed as text/color/slider/checkbox/point/angle/dropdown,
Media Replacement, groups, comments); precomp layers get an Essential Properties group whose
edits override per instance (Push to Comp / Revert); templates export/import as an open ZIP
(manifest.json + project subset + media + poster). Stretched precomps keep protected regions
at their original speed.
