Every fill and stroke allocated a coverage mask the size of the whole canvas and painted every
canvas pixel, so a vector file cost shapes × canvas area: SceneYard "Retro Desktop Movie
Popups" spent 556 s per frame on one 4001×2501 Illustrator layer (568 s a frame in all).
Each shape now rasterises and paints only inside its device-space bounding box (+1 px of
anti-aliasing) clipped to the canvas; a stroke uses the bounds of its outline. The frame
renders in 5–7 s (bench, no cache). Pixels match the whole-canvas version except a few
anti-aliased edge pixels (float rounding of the re-based transform). A test checks that every
pixel a shape covers lies inside its rectangle, and pins the output.

footage.relink {item, path} relinks one item and every other missing item that moved with it (one undo
step); Replace Footage on a missing item does the same, as in After Effects. File > Dependencies >
Relink Missing Footage in Folder... (footage.relinkFolder) finds missing files by name in a folder;
footage.missing lists them. The footage check after open finds files that moved along with the
project's folder, without marking the project modified. Paths compare by parts, so Windows and macOS
projects relink either way.
Checks: engine relink:: / footage_check:: (13 passed with replay::), host relink:: (1 passed),
clippy -D warnings (engine, host, ui-egui, script, cli, xtask). Not run: ui-egui i18n tests.

Upstream port: the folder search (footage.relinkFolder) is left out, since upstream's file.relinkFootage already scans a folder; the module is relink_moved.rs next to upstream's relink.rs.

A small search bar opens at the pointer (Edit > Effect Console..., app.fxConsole {query?}).
It ranks effects, text presets and user presets by name, word starts, initials (gb = Gaussian
Blur) and letters in order, boosting recent and favourite effects and sinking Obsolete ones.
Enter applies to the selected layers and closes, Shift+Enter applies and stays open, arrows
choose, Escape / Ctrl+Space / a click outside close. With no text it lists recent effects.

* 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.

Animated GIFs came in as one still frame in 0.7.0; bfbdadd3 (after that
release) probes them as movies. This end-to-end test imports a GIF file
through the wired session into a comp and checks the layer shows each of
its frames at its time, the path the viewer and exports share.

file.import stores a path as given, so footage imported by the CLI or an
agent as `clip.mp4` was saved relative, and opening the project looked it
up from the working directory. The CLI, started in the project's folder,
found it; the desktop app, started from the Finder, Explorer or a launcher
in another folder, showed and rendered neither its picture nor its sound,
while the Project panel still listed the saved duration.
On open, a relative footage path that doesn't exist from the working
directory but does next to the project file is resolved there (After
Effects also looks for footage relative to the project). Paths that exist
as they are, and absolute ones, are kept.

A text or shape layer's effect bounds are comp-sized (as in After Effects),
but its buffer surrounds only its content, and each effect grows the buffer
itself when it needs room. CC Smear and CC Tiler never did, so a smear was
cut off where the glyphs end and tiles filled only the text's box.
CC Tiler now covers the whole layer rectangle; CC Smear grows by how far it
moves pixels (Reach x From->To), at most to the layer bounds, so footage
layers, whose buffer is their bounds already, are unchanged. CPU and GPU
alike.

Every viewer request spawns a job on the frame pool. A pool thread blocked
inside a render (waiting on a parallel loop's join) runs other pool work
meanwhile, rayon's injected jobs included: the spawn of the next request
started a whole frame render on top of the waiting one. Dragging makes a
new revision, and a new viewer frame, every UI frame, so renders nested
without bound on every thread, each holding its buffers (a large image's
full-resolution copies), until all memory was used. Holding the layer still
makes no new revisions, which is why only moving it did this.
A spawn now drains the queue, and one that lands inside a render on its
thread returns at once; the render below takes the queued jobs when it is
done. Each pool thread renders one frame at a time.

The Scrub helper and the real-properties test discarded FullOutput, so the
first pass' font-atlas texture delta panicked on drop in debug builds —
which is how the FreeBSD CI gate failed. Consume the delta the way the
rest of the crate's egui tests do.
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.

The file dialogs were blocking rfd::FileDialog calls made inside eframe's frame,
that is inside winit's event handler. On macOS the dialog runs a nested modal
event loop there; a file dragged over the window while it was open reached
winit's handler again, which refuses re-entry with a panic across the
Objective-C boundary, aborting the app (Import with Cmd+I, then a drag).
Hooks gains file_dialog_async: a host that sets it shows a command's file dialog
(Import, Open, Save As, Save Frame As, presets, guides, templates, Collect Files,
Relink...) without blocking, and the command runs with the answer on a later
frame (menus::dialog_answered, drained at the start of each frame); a cancelled
dialog runs nothing. The macOS app implements it with rfd::AsyncFileDialog, a
sheet on the window answered when it closes, outside the frame. Other platforms
keep the blocking dialogs (winit queues their re-entrant events), as do the few
panel buttons that pick a file in place (Settings paths, shortcut import/export,
effect file pickers).
Test: with a non-blocking hook, Save As and Save Frame As return at once without
the blocking dialog, the save happens when the answer arrives from another
thread, and a cancelled dialog writes nothing. The macOS sheet itself needs a
manual check (Cmd+I, drag a file over the window, pick or cancel).

widgets::keep_focus (Project panel rename and comment, Render Queue, Essential
Graphics and Timeline fields) selected the whole text whenever it saw its field
without the keyboard focus, not just on the frame the editor opened. Anything
that took the focus for a frame (an input method, another handler) then
re-selected the name, so the arrow keys seemed to do nothing and Backspace erased
the whole name, as reported on Linux. The editor now remembers the pass it was
last shown: it selects all only when it opens and otherwise just takes the
keyboard back with the caret where it was.
The harness does not reproduce the report's Linux behaviour itself (arrows reach
the field there); the tests cover the path that did: a unit test drops the focus
for a frame and checks the caret survives (and that reopening selects all), and a
kittest renames a Project item and a Timeline layer with Left / Right / Up /
Down / End and Backspace, editing part of each name.

Motion-path hits were only handled for the Selection tool, so the Pen slot's
tools did nothing on a layer's motion path, and every Pen slot tool showed the
same crosshair. As in After Effects, on a motion path:
- Add Vertex (and the Pen) add a Position keyframe at the clicked frame dot,
with the path's value there (prop.addKey), so the path keeps its shape;
- Delete Vertex removes the clicked keyframe (keys.select + keys.delete);
- Convert Vertex switches it between Linear and Auto Bezier spatial
interpolation (keys.interpolation {spatial}).
motion_path now reports its frame dots for the hit test. Over the viewer the Pen
slot tools draw their own pen glyph (Pen, Add, Delete, Convert, Mask Feather) at
the pointer in place of the system cursor, and the Pen shows Add Vertex's pen over
a mask, shape or motion path it would add a point to.
Test: ui_viewer clicks a two-key motion path with each tool and checks the added
key, its spatial interpolation both ways, its removal, and the pointer.

On Adreno (Windows ARM64) a failed vkAllocateMemory surfaces as an internal
ERROR_INITIALIZATION_FAILED, not out-of-memory. Gpu::within_memory only scoped
OutOfMemory, and wgpu's DeviceExt::create_buffer_init maps the new buffer at
creation and panics ("Failed to get mapped range") when the allocation failed,
taking down a frame thread. Buffers with initial contents are now created unmapped
and filled through queue.write_buffer (context::buffer_init), so a failed
allocation is only an invalid buffer and an error for the caller's scope, and
within_memory scopes Internal errors too, discarding the frame for the CPU path
as it does for out-of-memory.
The device was then lost, and egui-wgpu panicked on the main thread staging the
next frame's index buffer on the dead device. Once the host reports the
presentation device lost, the app draws nothing more (no mesh to stage), auto-saves
unsaved changes, keeps the crash-recovery marker so the next launch offers them,
and closes its window.
Tests: a device with a small buffer limit gets an over-limit and an unaligned
buffer_init without a panic and sees the error in its scope; the UI harness
reports a device loss and checks the next frame has no shapes, closes the window
and wrote the auto-save.

The MSI only installed a Start Menu shortcut. The wizard's folder page now has a
"Create a desktop shortcut" box (DESKTOPSHORTCUT, 1 by default; DESKTOPSHORTCUT=0
for silent installs) that adds an EffectCraft shortcut to the Public desktop. The
choice is recorded under HKLM\Software\EffectCraft so an upgrade keeps it, and an
upgrade from a release before this option adds none. test-msi.ps1 checks the
shortcut is created by default, kept by upgrades, removed on uninstall and absent
with DESKTOPSHORTCUT=0.

Effect Controls painted effect headers with fixed dark fills (#2a2a2a,
#2f3a52 when active) under the theme's text colour, so on Light the effect
names were dark on dark (1.1:1). The Timeline kept the selected layer's
time-graph row, the A/V and switch wells, the time navigator, the work area
bar and the expression field on fixed dark fills too.
Those surfaces are now theme tokens (fx_header, fx_header_active,
tl_graph_selected, switch_well, tl_nav_bar, tl_work_area_bar, expr_bg,
expr_text) with the dark values unchanged and light ones for Light. The
expression editor's syntax colours come from the theme as well: on the
light field a darker set keeps every category, enabled/disabled
expressions, matched brackets and line numbers at 4.5:1 or better
(contrast test, with a negative control showing the dark set fails there).

A typed value committed by clicking elsewhere could be applied as an
offset, because dragged_id() is set on the press that commits it; a scrub
now needs a decided drag. In the Timeline, clicking a stopwatch or the
keyframe button acts on that layer's property only, as in After Effects
(the Properties panel and keyboard shortcuts act on every selected layer).

With several layers selected, After Effects applies a property edit to the same property of
every selected layer; we changed only the layer whose row was edited (the Properties panel
showed only the first selected layer), so a stopwatch switched on one layer and later moves
of the others had nothing to keyframe (#355), and scaling or rotating a selection changed
one layer (#491).
- Engine: `prop.set`, `prop.toggleAnimation` and `prop.toggleKey` take `selected: true`:
the change also goes to the same property (by match path, `transform/scale`,
`effects/<effect>#n/<param>`) of every other selected, unlocked layer whose value has the
same kind, in one undo step (a scrub keeps folding into it through its `merge` key). With
`offset: true` (a scrub) each layer changes by the same amount from its own value; a typed
value sets them all. Position with Separate Dimensions is handled per layer.
- The Timeline, Properties and Effect Controls panels pass `selected` (and `offset` while a
value is dragged). The Properties panel heads "(N) Selected Objects" (zh-CN / zh-TW / ja /
uk rows).
- Viewer: a bounding-box handle drag scales every selected layer by the same ratio about its
own anchor point; the Rotation tool turns them all by the same angle (one undo step).
Tests: engine test (stopwatch, scrub offset, typed value, keyframe button, one undo step,
unselected layers untouched); kittests: the Properties panel with three layers selected
(header, stopwatch on all three undone in one step, a scrub moving all three by the same
amount) and a handle drag scaling two selected layers.

The viewer projected a 3D layer's box, its axis gizmo and its Extended Viewer outline
through the camera with a plain perspective divide. A point at or behind the camera
(w ≤ 0) flips through infinity, so a layer turned or moved so that part of it reaches past
the camera drew long lines across the viewer, and its handles and hit area flipped too.
- `layer_quad` (handles, hit tests, marquee) is None for a layer reaching past the near
plane, so nothing is placed or picked on a flipped quad.
- `layer_outline` clips the box to the part in front of the near plane (Sutherland-Hodgman
in homogeneous coordinates); the selection outline and the Extended Viewer use it.
- The 3D axis gizmo's arrows are clipped the same way (`project_segment`).
Tests: a box crossing the near plane keeps only its front part, one wholly behind draws
nothing; gizmo segments are cut at the plane and never flip.
Note: the reporter's exact setup (ellipse, X/Y Rotation, Orientation) wasn't reproduced
in a headless probe with the default camera, where the layer stays in front of it; this
fixes the projection fault that draws such lines.
