Adding a marker replaced the comp, so every cached frame stopped matching and the preview had to
re-render before its audio could carry on. Plain markers change no pixels; protected time markers
with a duration still do (Responsive Design). Markers count in full again when a project uses
expressions, which can read them.

The layer bar Quick Offset was followed and ended in its row's code, and
rows out of view aren't drawn. Released with its row scrolled away, it
stayed active: the next drag of that bar, even a plain one, ran as a
Quick Offset from the old origin, into the old undo step.
Like the key drag, it now follows the pointer below the rows and ends
when the button is released, wherever the bar's row is.
Test: a_quick_offset_released_off_screen_ends (release with the row
scrolled away; a plain drag after it moves both layers together as its
own undo step; fails before).
The Chinese UI fallback was chosen by probing 文, which Japanese faces
cover too. Fallback takes a face already loaded first, so after the
English interface had loaded a Japanese face for kana, switching to
Simplified Chinese reused it, and the simplified-only hanzi (选, 删,
层, 设, 页 ...) drew as boxes. A Simplified Chinese interface now probes
页, as wordcraft does for its interface font (storytold/wordcraft#248).
Ctrl/Cmd+Alt dragging a selected layer bar or a selected key now runs a
Quick Offset (layer.quickOffset / keys.quickOffset with fromStart, one
undo step). The mode is chosen when the drag starts and needs at least
two unlocked layers; the last selected layer moves by whole frames with
the pointer. A readout by the pointer shows the Total Offset and the
offset Per Layer, translated.
A plain drag still moves the selection together, Alt alone still scales
a key group in time (it now leaves Ctrl/Cmd+Alt to Quick Offset), and
Ctrl/Cmd+Alt+click still toggles Hold. The key drag's readout is drawn
by a shared drag_tip. Keys also register timeline.keyAt.<uid>.<ticks>,
exact where keys on subframes can share a frame.
Tests (ui_quick_offset): staggering layer bars in selection order and
keys per layer, one undo each; plain drags and Alt scaling unchanged; the
readout while dragging.
The layer context menu gains an Effects submenu between Blending Mode and Arrange, mirroring the After Effects layer menu: the effect registry grouped by category (sorted), synced with the Effect menu; picking one applies it to the selected layers.
A colour pick clicked in the Composition panel before the viewer had a frame
(still rendering on a background thread, or a readback pending) sampled nothing
but was used up, leaving the colour unchanged. The click now leaves the
eyedropper armed, as the text colour eyedropper already does.
timeline_colour_eyedropper_samples_the_comp clicked without waiting for the
frame and hit this in about one run in four; it now waits for the frame.

The handle was filled with the colour of its own track (both the field
background), so it only showed while hovered or dragged. It now takes the text
colour, in every scroll area.

Enter closes the editor like its OK button, also while the search field has
focus. It stays with the shortcut recorder (Enter can be recorded), the preset

The floating group's title strip used the same id as its Area's own
background widget, and the Area was shifted back into the window while
the group's rect kept moving, so the two no longer overlapped and egui
painted "Double use of widget ID" over the panel. The strip has its own
id and the group is drawn where its rect says.

The editor's content was a little taller than its dialog, so the outer scroll
area clipped the OK button and its scrollbar covered the right edge. The dialog
now has no outer scroll area: the command list takes whatever height is left,
so the button row always fits, in small windows too.

The attach point's 12 px grab area sat on top of the feature region and is tested first. Zoomed out, a default feature region is smaller than that on screen, so every press inside it moved the attach point instead of the point. Inside the feature region the attach point now grabs only the region's inner half.
Undoes the 800 px Project Settings width from #980: the form is back at the
shared 480 px.
A form's choice popup keeps its 240 px column and ends a long choice (a GPU
adapter's name) in an ellipsis instead of widening the grid past the dialog.
Only the fields scroll, and only vertically; OK and Cancel sit under the
scroll area, so they stay in view.

Guides can store a percent of the comp so they follow comp-size changes
(View > Add Percentage Guide, Convert Guides to Percentage / Pixels); an
effect instance has an optional colour label (effect.setLabel, Effect Controls
header bar and Label menu). Both are serde-defaulted, so old projects load.

A vertex under or beside a box handle lost the press to the handle (the handle reaches 9 points, the vertex 6), the resize cursor showed over it, and the handles were painted over the vertex markers. Vertex reach now matches the handle's wherever one is in range, the cursor stays a pointer, and markers are drawn last.

The buttons were offset 2pt below the 22pt header's centre, so their text sat
below the effect name's baseline.

The In/Out trim zones were 6 pt strips inside the bar only: at or just outside an end the pointer got the default cursor, and on footage/precomp layers just outside the end it hit the slip zone, which shows the same arrow but slips the source instead of trimming. Zones now reach 4 pt outside and up to 5 pt inside each end (short bars keep their middle third as body), registered after the slip zones so trimming wins there. The trim zones show the system resize cursor (upstream port: the fork also offers an owner-local cursor, left out here). Test: ui_timeline_trim.

Opening the Graph Editor (header button, menu, Shift+F3, control channel)
frames the graphs on its first frame: Fit Selection to View when keys are
selected, else Fit All Graphs to View. Switching value/speed graph refits
too (different units). A selected key now shows its property's graph even
when its layer isn't selected, and Fit Selection on a lone key also frames
its neighbouring keys.

The Timeline footer's zoom-out / zoom-in mountain icons were painted but not
interactive, and the zoom slider only reacted to drags (a click on the track did
nothing) and set the zoom without the whole-comp clamp. The icons are now buttons
(timeline.zoomOutButton / timeline.zoomInButton, one = / - step), the slider
jumps on click, and both go through set_zoom, centred on the CTI.
The layer bars and the Graph Editor share one time zoom (TimelineState start /
pps, as in After Effects); regression tests drive = / -, the buttons, the slider
and the navigator over the control channel in both views and check switching
views keeps the zoom.

Shortcut presets accept Physical+<key> (egui US-position names) so layouts that report the
same logical key for two physical keys (AZERTY's - and )) can bind them separately; physical
bindings win for that press, and a focused panel's binding wins over an application command on
the same chord. ui.key accepts the same notation. Adds time.workAreaStart / time.workAreaEnd.

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.

The menus have been complete in Japanese since the menu catalog landed, but the panel
catalog below the menu bar stopped at 410 of the 506 source strings the Chinese catalogs
define. Settings, the Home screen, the viewer tools and the Fast Previews and channel
popups therefore still drew in English for a Japanese interface.
This adds the 96 missing rows. Existing rows are untouched and keep their order; the new
ones follow the canonical (Simplified Chinese) order, which the catalog tests require, and
no row changes the number of `{}` values its English source carries.
Terms follow the Japanese already in the catalog and, wherever a control exists in both,
the wording After Effects 2026 (26.5) itself shows in Japanese: 平面 (Solid), 関心領域
(Region of Interest), フル画質 / 1/2 画質 / 1/3 画質 / 1/4 画質 (viewer resolution),
ドラフト 3D (Fast Previews), 透明グリッド (Transparency Grid), マスクとシェイプのパスを表示
(Toggle Mask and Shape Path Visibility), チャンネルとカラーマネジメント設定を表示 (Show
Channel and Color Management Settings).
The crate's `i18n` unit tests pass (10/10) and rustfmt is clean.
First in the menu, as in After Effects, and for the right-clicked comp rather than the one in the viewer: the dialog keeps the comp it edits and OK passes it to comp.settings. comp.settings with only {"comp": id} opens the dialog on that comp.
Zoom to Fit Comp remembers the span it left and goes back to it when pressed
again from the whole comp.

The engine's layer.create has shapesFromText and masksFromText, but the
timeline and Composition context menus only offered Create Shapes from Vector
Layer, so text could not be converted to editable outlines from the UI. Gate
the two text conversions on a text layer (LayerMenuCaps replaces the lone
vector flag), beside the vector one.
Cmd-click (or Alt-click) the arrow of Effects, Contents, Masks or any other
group in the Timeline twirls every group under it open, or closed, with it,
as the layer's own arrow already did.
