OK runs layer.newPrimitive, which switches a Classic 3D comp to Advanced 3D in the same undo step. The dimension fields are the Geometry Options the engine builds for the chosen type.
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.

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.
Menu entry translated in all ten menu catalogues.
Rebased onto current upstream main for the split of #858 (test module list in
engine lib.rs; es/pt-br/ru/fr/de/cs menu translations).

layer.sampling takes `toggle`: layers that all have the sampling already get the
other one. The Bilinear and Bicubic menu entries, which carry the keys, pass it.

F2 Deselect All, Cmd+Shift+T Effect Controls, Cmd+Alt+Left / Right Go to Start /
End, Cmd+Shift+/ Add to Render Queue.
Effect Controls is a menu entry with bound parameters, which could hold one key:
a menu line can now give further default keys after a comma
(F3, Cmd+Shift+T); the menus show the first. MenuEntry gains alt_shortcuts.

Viewer: each composition keeps its Resolution in the project, as in After Effects (#417)
# Conflicts:
# crates/ui-egui/src/control.rs
# crates/ui-egui/src/menus.rs
# crates/ui-egui/src/panels/viewer_tools.rs
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: 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.

What: the Composition panel's Resolution (Auto, Full, Half, Third, Quarter, Custom) is now a
property of the composition (`Comp::resolution`, moved with its `Resolution` type from the UI
into the project crate) instead of one global viewer setting. Switching to another comp shows
that comp's resolution, switching back shows the first one's again, and saving and reopening the
project keeps them. `view.res.full|half|third|quarter|custom` and the new engine command
`view.res.auto` set it (headless too, with an optional `comp`); `ui.set {viewer: {res}}` sets
the active comp's and `ui.inspect` still reports `ui.viewer.res`; `comp.info` reports
`resolution` and `resolutionFactor`; View ▸ Resolution's check marks come from the engine.
Why: After Effects saves each composition's Resolution with the project (CompItem.resolutionFactor
is a per-comp attribute). As there, changing it marks the project modified but adds no undo step:
undo, redo and History jumps carry the current values over to the restored state. It is not part
of the comp's pixels (`Comp::same_pixels` ignores it and `Comp::pixel_form` normalises it), so
changing it keeps the comp's RAM and disk cache keys. Auto is not written (serde default and
skip_serializing_if), so projects saved before open with Auto and older versions read new files.
The magnification is not saved per comp: Adobe's documentation doesn't say it is.
Tests: project `comp_resolution_is_saved_and_old_projects_load_with_auto`,
`resolution_factors_and_scales`; engine
`each_comp_keeps_its_resolution_outside_the_undo_history_and_in_the_file` (switching comps,
no undo step, undo/redo keep it, save/open round trip, menu check marks, Custom dialog);
ui-egui `each_comp_keeps_its_viewer_resolution` (the viewer popup on comp A, comp B through
`ui.set`, back to A, unchanged frame cache identity, save/open). They don't build before the
change (no `Comp::resolution`, no `view.res.auto` engine command).

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.
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).
Docs: plugins.md (bundled extensions), parity.md, gaps.md G8, agents.md.
Test: app_settings_last_between_runs,
per_key_methods_keep_the_key_selection_and_report_eases_as_they_play,
spatial_tangents_are_reported_as_the_path_plays (each fails before),

panel's controls), ease_presets_panel_eases_the_selected_keys_from_its_list
(UI: the panel docks and a click on a preset eases the keys).

A dockable panel (our own design) for the keys.easePreset commands. A
value graph shows the working curve with its two handles, which drag
to edit it; Apply eases the selected keyframes with it and From Keys
loads the curve between the first selected pair. Every preset is a
thumbnail drawn in code; a click loads it and applies it to the
selected keys. Save Current keeps the working curve under the name in
the field, and Rename and Delete act on the selected user preset.
Wide panels put the presets beside the graph; narrow ones below it,
the graph shrinking to leave a row of presets, scrolled with the wheel.
The panel state (working curve, selection, name) is serde in the UI
state, and every control registers an automation id (easePresets.*).
widgets::text_field is the search field without its magnifier.
Test: clicking_an_ease_preset_eases_the_selected_keys_and_handles_edit_the_curve
(ui_keyframes); every_panel_registers_automation_ids_for_its_widgets
covers the new panel.

Save as New Workspace stored the layout and `window.workspace` could
switch to it, but the Workspace submenu was a fixed list of the
built-in workspaces, so a saved one never appeared and could not be
chosen from the menu.
The submenu now has a `savedWorkspaces` dynamic node after the
built-ins (DynCtx carries the saved names), in the in-window and native
menus, with a check mark on the current one as the built-ins have.
The in-window submenu was also too short to show it. egui lays out a
new submenu in a default 400 pt area, and the scroll area inside took
that height and kept it, so Window ▸ Workspace (514 pt) opened with its
last rows (Undocked Panels and below, where saved workspaces go)
scrolled out of view. Submenus now open at their full height and scroll
only when taller than the window.
Tests: saved_workspace_is_listed_in_the_workspace_menu (picks it from
the menu bar), saved_workspaces_are_in_the_native_workspace_menu.

- PanelKind::Viewer(n): more Composition viewers (panels::viewers). One is active (the full
interactive viewer, showing the active comp); the others show their own comp's frame at that
comp's current time (CPU or GPU frames, their own textures) and become active on a click or
their tab, their comp becoming the active comp.
- view.newViewer (View menu, the Composition panel menu, Alt+Shift+N): a new viewer of the
active comp next to the one in use, which is locked. Opening a comp while the active viewer
is locked shows it in an unlocked viewer, or a new one when every viewer is locked. Closing
the active viewer hands over to another with its comp. Tabs are named after their comp, with
their own lock and swatch; Preview full screen maximizes the active viewer.
- UI state: viewers (comp per viewer) and active_viewer (serde).
- Tests: ui_viewers (lock on New Viewer, routing, click to activate, all locked → new viewer,
close hand-over, tab titles; an ignored snapshot). The bounded-drag frames test asserts what
holds when freed addresses are reused. Docs: parity, control protocol.

Removes the engine's production expect() calls: background-job polling (camera, mask, roto,
point and warp tracking, render queue) uses let-else / if-let instead of take().expect("job"),
command helpers bind what they checked instead of re-reading it with expect, the menu bar falls
back to an empty tree (logged) instead of expect()ing that a constant parses, and
autotrace/text animator group lookups no longer expect a just-inserted group. perf.rs, the
benchmark harness behind `effectcraft-cli bench --ops`, opts out with a module-level allow.
Test-only unreachable!() calls become panic!() (clippy.toml allows panics in tests). Denies the
panic lints in the crate.

- Group Shapes (Ctrl+G) / Ungroup Shapes (Ctrl+Shift+G) sit in the Layer menu itself, as in
After Effects (they were under Mask and Shape Path).
- Window ▸ Learn opens the Home screen's Learn tab.
- Composition ▸ Composition Flowchart is Ctrl+Shift+F11 and Window ▸ Flowchart Ctrl+F11 (the
flowchart had the panel's shortcut and the panel none).
- Layer ▸ Transform ▸ Center In View shows Ctrl+Home.
- "Reveal in Finder" reads "Reveal in Explorer" on Windows and "Reveal in File Manager" on
Linux (`menus::platform_label`).
- Docs: parity (View ▸ New Viewer noted as not yet).

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.

Adds Review, Learn, Essential Graphics, Color and Undocked Panels to the
built-in workspaces (Libraries, an Adobe service, is left out), lists them all
in Window > Workspace in After Effects' order, and gives each its own layout:
Review (large viewer, Markers and Project), Learn (Default plus the Home
screen with the community links), Essential Graphics (Properties panel full
height, type panels), Color (wide Effect Controls, Info), Undocked Panels
(Composition docked, the other panels floating). Tests check every AE
workspace exists, has its own layout, has each panel once and is in the menu.

Composition viewer interaction parity with After Effects:
- Snapping (View > Snapping, the Tools bar checkbox, Cmd/Ctrl inverts while
dragging): layer edges, centres and anchor points, mask and shape-path
vertices, comp edges/centre, guides (Snap to Guides) and grid (Snap to
Grid), with highlighted target box / line / cross feedback. Pure maths in
engine::viewer (nearest target within tolerance, priority ties).
- Rulers (Cmd+R) with live pointer markers and a draggable zero point;
guides dragged out of the rulers, moved in the viewer, dragged off to
remove (view.moveGuide / view.removeGuide), lock respected; proportional
grid.
- Show Channel (RGB/Red/Green/Blue/Alpha/RGB Straight, Colorize), exposure
(+/- stops in linear light, reset), Take Snapshot (Shift+F5) with a stored
render and Show Snapshot (F5 held / button held), Fast Previews (Off,
Adaptive Resolution, Draft, Fast Draft, Wireframe), Resolution > Custom.
- Region of interest: drawn in the viewer; RenderOpts.roi renders only that
rectangle (crop of the full render, tested), Crop Comp to ROI uses it.
- Bottom bar in AE 2026 order ("136.1 %", "(Full)").
- Shape Pen (SHP-1): Pen on a shape layer / nothing selected draws Shape n
groups (Path 1, Stroke 1, Fill 1) via shape.newPath; the G slot cycles
Add / Delete / Convert Vertex and Mask Feather; mask.* vertex commands
work on shape paths; mask.insertVertex / mask.convertVertex; marquee
vertex selection, Alt-drag/click converts, double-click free transform
box (path.freeTransform on masks and shape paths).
- Motion paths (ANM-3): keyframe dots and spatial tangent handles, dragging
keys (keys.set) and tangents (keys.setSpatialTangents), parented layers.
