- 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

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.

Ported onto the current language plumbing next to Ukrainian (catalog
codes, Match System, native menu Services label, docs, tests), and the
stale Ease Presets row (a ScriptUI panel since #404) dropped.

- #571's Red/Green/Blue rows duplicated #490's; keep 红色/绿色/蓝色 and give
Traditional Chinese 紅色/綠色/藍色 instead of the English copies.
- The viewer's grid menu says Title/Action Safe again (as in After
Effects and the View menu), with its own catalog rows.
- Half is 二分之一, as in After Effects' Simplified Chinese resolution menu.
- Drop the macOS 'defaults read' fallback for a C locale: sys-locale never
reports one on Apple, so it never ran.

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.

The app bundle exported ai.storyteller.effectcraft.document with the
`.pcraft` extension, PhotoCraft's document format. Installing EffectCraft
took `.pcraft` over, and since EffectCraft declared no document types,
neither app was offered for PhotoCraft documents in Finder. EffectCraft's
own projects (.ecproj, .ecprojx) had no file type at all.
- Info.plist: the exported type now tags .ecproj and .ecprojx ("EffectCraft
Project", conforming to public.data and public.content rather than
public.image), and CFBundleDocumentTypes makes EffectCraft their owner.
- Finder double-click, Open With, Dock drops and `open -a EffectCraft
x.ecproj` send a kAEOpenDocuments Apple event that winit 0.30 doesn't
handle. Register it with the audited fmv-macos-events crate that
PhotoCraft and PdfCraft use (it keeps the unsafe Objective-C interop out
of this workspace). Opened paths go through the dropped-file handling, so
a project opens after the unsaved-changes prompt and media is imported. A
quit event closes the window.
- The event that launches the app arrives before the UI draws: the first
frames skip the panels until the fonts are installed, which dropped it.
The paths wait for EffectcraftApp::is_ready().

- Wrap remaining hardcoded UI labels and buttons with tr()/tl!() calls
- Add missing Simplified and Traditional Chinese translations
- Add entries to other language catalogs for consistency
- automation / cli autosave restart tests: the MCP instructions embed the
auto-save state as JSON, so a Windows path's backslashes are escaped there;
look for the JSON form of the path.
- ui_gpu: egui_kittest prefers a CPU adapter, which on Windows is WARP on
DirectX 12, where FXC fails to compile the compositor's `pointwise` kernel
("compilation aborted unexpectedly"), so the viewer stayed on the CPU and
the test failed before comparing anything. Build the harness on the adapter
the headless compositor picked (falling back to egui_kittest's choice).
- ui_audio_scrub (#103 test): with a fixed 2 s comp, a machine with many
render threads cached the whole preview before the first step, so the sound
rightly started at once and no silent frame was counted (3 of 24 runs
failed with 8 copies in parallel). Size the comp to four times the frames
playback requests per step, so caching takes at least four steps (0 of 24).

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).

Every pointer move replaces the comp's content identity, so the frame on
screen takes a new cache key at every step while its render is still in
flight; the viewer only ever showed an exact key, so the picture froze on
the last completed frame until the drag ended. While a drag or a property
scrub is running, show the newest frame of the same comp, frame, scale,
view and render options that is ready — a render behind, as After Effects
does — and go back to exact frames when it stops.
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.
The second pass over the interface below the menu bar: the strings that are technical terms or
proper nouns - `Mercury GPU Acceleration (…)`, `8/16/32 bits per channel`, `OCIO (built-in ACES
config)`, `sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (default)`, `Import Photoshop File`, `Current Settings`, the viewer's
channel and Fast Previews items. Each wording was checked against the installed After Effects
26.5.0 Simplified Chinese, the way the menu bar was in #353. Terms Adobe keeps in English
(`Display P3`, `HDTV (Rec. 709)`, `RGB`, `Alpha`, `H.264`, `ProRes`) need no row: a missing row
falls back to the English source, which is the decision.
The text reaches the catalog through the funnels that draw it, so one change each covers every
call site:
- `forms.rs`: field labels, notes, choice items and info bodies, plus `dialogs::modal`'s title -
the modal id stays keyed on the untranslated source, so changing the language cannot move it;
- `settings.rs`: page titles, sections, notes, buttons, setting labels and choice items (the page
table itself is engine data and cannot reach the catalog);
- `comp_settings.rs` (3D renderer), `key_dialogs.rs::combo` (Current Settings and the roving
items), `properties.rs` + `timeline.rs` (the text animator menu), `dialogs.rs` (About links);
- `render_queue.rs`: the Opus bitrate goes through `tr_args`, so the value is substituted after
the lookup - worth calling out, because building the string with `format!` and translating the
result looks up the assembled text and silently stays English (the same trap as the project
settings' GPU label, which this commit also fixes).
30 rows join the Simplified catalog. The same keys join the Traditional one with the English
source as their value: the tests require the two lists to match, and the Traditional wording is
the translator's call.
Tests: `CONVERTED` gains the three engine files whose strings the interface draws
(`prefs.rs`, `viewer.rs`, `commands/viewer_cmds.rs`); each holds no drawn literals, so the literal
scan stays green and the new rows have a source to be "used" from. `cargo test -p
effectcraft-ui-egui --lib i18n`: 16 passed.
Text a helper draws for a panel was handed to that helper as a bare literal, so the catalog lookup
never happened and parts of the interface stayed English with a Chinese language chosen:
- the Composition panel's toolbar tooltips - Choose grid and guide options, Toggle Transparency
Grid, Toggle Mask and Shape Path Visibility, Region of Interest, Show Channel and Color
Management Settings, Reset Exposure, Take Snapshot, Show Snapshot (hold);
- the items of its four popups (grid and guides, resolution, magnification, channel) - Grid,
Guides, Rulers, Proportional Grid, 3D Reference Axes, Full, Half, Third, Quarter, Custom...,
Fit, Fit up to 100%, Colorize;
- the solid dialog's "Affect all layers that use this solid" checkbox and its disabled hint
"Only this layer uses this solid.".
`tog` and `popup` now look the label up themselves, so every current and future call site is
covered by one change each; the automation ids and labels stay English, as the rest of the panels
keep them for scripts and tests. `resolution_label` composes its words from the catalog, so the
closed resolution dropdown reads Chinese too, and the viewer's item now reuses the panel's existing
"Title/action safe" row instead of a second spelling of the same concept.
21 rows join the Simplified catalog. The same keys join the Traditional one with the English source
as their value: the tests require the two lists to match, and the Traditional wording is the
translator's call rather than this change's.
Tests: the row-completeness check now also accepts a row that a helper draws (its English source
appears as a literal there), and a new check refuses a bare `Checkbox::new` / `RadioButton::new`
label - the shape that hid the solid dialog, and the one the literal scan cannot see because the
label is the call's second argument.
This also corrects two Simplified rows #398 left wrong (`Channel` read 色版 in a Simplified
catalog, `Motion Blur: {}` read 动态模糊 while the menu catalog's own Motion Blur is 运动模糊).
Cause: clipboard events carry no modifiers, and the Cut and Copy/Paste
mapping read i.modifiers, egui's state after all of the frame's events.
A Shift+Delete with Shift released in the same frame became Ctrl+X (no
deletion), and a Ctrl+X followed in the same frame by Ctrl up and Shift
down became Shift+Delete: the selected items and the layers using them
deleted without the prompt.
Fix: walk the frame's events in order from the modifiers held when it
began (the state the last pass ended with, recorded each pass), so each
Cut, Copy and Paste uses the modifiers at its place in the stream. When
that state isn't known (a pass was skipped), a Cut is never Shift+Delete.
Only Shift alone counts, not Ctrl/Alt+Shift.
Tests: a_cut_is_read_with_the_modifiers_where_it_is_in_the_frame queues
modifier changes and a Cut in one frame (Shift then Cut and Shift up;
Ctrl, Cut, Ctrl up, Shift down; and the mixed orders); the Windows
Shift+Delete helper now sends Shift, Cut and Shift up as one frame. They
fail on the previous mapping and pass now.
With the Project panel focused, Delete Project Items Without Confirmation
runs project.delete on the selection: items compositions use go without
the prompt, with their layers, in one undo step. In the other panels it
does nothing, and like every shortcut it doesn't fire while typing or
with a dialog open.
On Windows the windowing layer sends Shift+Delete as Cut (the old Cut
key), which was mapped to Ctrl+X: in the Project panel, which has no
clipboard, a Cut with only Shift held is Shift+Delete now. Elsewhere it
still cuts.
Tests (ui_project_delete): Shift+Delete as a key and as Windows' Cut
deletes a comp, a solid in use, footage and a folder without the prompt
and one undo restores them; a multi-selection with a folder holding a
solid in use goes together; an empty selection deletes nothing; the next
Delete still asks after Shift+Delete or an answered prompt; it does
nothing in the Composition panel, while renaming or with a dialog open;
Shift+Backspace, Alt/Ctrl+Delete and Ctrl/Alt+Shift+Delete don't delete.
The deleting tests fail without this change.
The prompt's Delete set a flag that let the next project.delete skip the
prompt. It now runs project.delete directly (delete_items::delete_confirmed),
so the confirmation goes with that request and can't carry over to a later
deletion. Shift+Delete uses the same path.
Translate the 396 current panel catalog rows and route Ukrainian Reveal
labels for Finder, Explorer and File Manager. Enforce catalog parity,
placeholder preservation and platform label coverage; update language docs.
Use a fixed-size OCIO row iterator to satisfy the current Clippy gate.

ui.rs gets a Japanese table with the same 396 rows as the Simplified and
Traditional Chinese ones, so Japanese now translates the interface below
the menu bar too (it covered the menus only). The shape test keeps the
three tables listing the same source strings; a new test checks that
Japanese reads its own rows and fills values in order. The existing
"no rows yet" check uses Ukrainian instead.
ROADMAP.md and docs/preferences.md say which catalogs have panel rows.

The freeze and quit during a FLAC preview did not reproduce on current
main (Windows 11): a 4-minute stereo and a 10-minute 24-bit 6-channel
96 kHz FLAC played through a RAM preview with a real-time audio pull,
after trimming and zooming, with no stall, no growing queue and memory
bounded by the RAM preview budget; 150 cpal output start/stop cycles
ran clean. Three defects in that path were found and fixed:
- FilmCraft decodes FLAC, MP3, Ogg and AIFF files whole when they are
opened (8 s and 1.4 GB for the 10-minute 6-channel file). MediaPool
opened a file outside its lock, so every caller asking before the
first open finished decoded the whole file too: a preview's frame
workers, audio feeder, conform and waveform threads at once (8 reads
at once: 8 decodes). Each path now opens once; the others wait for it.
- AudioPlayback::start mixed its first 50 ms on the calling (UI)
thread, so the first read of such a file froze the UI for the whole
decode (audio-only previews start the sound right away). All mixing
is on the feeder thread now; the device plays silence until the first
block arrives, and the clock (frames actually played) waits for it.
- Conforming (Settings > Disk > Conformed Audio Folder, on by default)
held the whole conformed track in memory before writing it, sized by
the footage duration from the file's header: a header claiming a
month of audio aborted the app on a failed 995 GB allocation. The
conformed file is now written a chunk at a time, and footage longer
than 24 hours is read from its decoder instead of conformed.
Tests: media concurrent_first_reads_open_a_file_once (8 threads: 8
opens before, 1 now; PoolStats::opened), pool
a_header_claiming_a_month_of_audio_is_not_conformed (aborted before),
ui-egui audio starting_audio_does_not_wait_for_slow_footage (start took
the footage's 2 s before), conformed_flac_audio_reads_back_like_the_
decoder, and the robustness test flac_audio_of_any_shape_reads_in_
device_blocks (2 minutes of 24-bit 6-channel 96 kHz, mono 8 kHz,
11.025 kHz, 192 kHz and 8-channel FLAC read in 1024-frame blocks at
48 kHz through and past the end: level, silence after the end, opened
once). FLAC fixtures come from ffmpeg (skipped without it).

Cause: two things kept Arabic out of a layer name on Windows.
- Windows switches the keyboard layout with Alt+Shift. Releasing Shift
before Alt left Alt held alone, and the in-window menu bar (#279)
counted the release as an Alt tap: it took the keyboard focus, the
rename field closed, and the letters typed next were swallowed by the
menu bar. The Project panel's rename field lost them the same way.
- The UI fonts are Inter plus the CJK system fallbacks, so Arabic,
Hebrew, Indic and Thai names that did arrive (pasted, or from a
project) showed as missing-glyph boxes.
Fix:
- An Alt tap only counts when Alt went down with no other modifier
held, so Alt+Shift in either release order is no tap; a plain Alt tap
still focuses the menu bar.
- The UI registers installed system faces for Arabic, Hebrew, Devanagari,
Bengali, Gurmukhi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, Malayalam and Thai
after the CJK ones, the same way (native only; the web build has no
system fonts). A face covering several scripts is registered once
(Segoe UI: Arabic and Hebrew; Nirmala UI: every Indic script).
- The text engine's fallback tries each script's plain platform families
(Segoe UI, Nirmala UI, Leelawadee UI, Geeza Pro, Kohinoor, Noto…)
before any covering face, so neither the UI nor a text layer gets a
calligraphic face that merely sorts first.
- The Timeline's rename field registers `timeline.layer.<id>.nameEdit`.
egui 0.36 shapes each run of one face, so Arabic letters join and a word
reads right to left; it has no bidirectional layout, so the words of a
multi-word Arabic name (and mixed Arabic/Latin) still follow each other
left to right.
Tests: ui_inline_edit a_layout_switch_keeps_the_name_field_and_arabic_
names_are_kept (Alt+Shift both ways in the layer rename, Arabic typed and
stored; Hebrew/Devanagari/Thai in the Project panel; a plain Alt tap
still focuses File; failed before: the field closed), theme
installed_script_fallbacks_draw_arabic_hebrew_indic_and_thai_names
(failed before: replacement glyph for Arabic) and
arabic_words_are_joined_and_read_right_to_left, text
other_scripts_fall_back_to_a_plain_system_family and the script
classification.

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.

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.

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).
