- Keys copied from several layers and pasted onto as many selected layers go first to first,
second to second, as in After Effects; every target used to receive every copied property
(the later ones overwriting the earlier).
- Edit ▸ Paste Reversed Keyframes mirrors the clipboard over its span and pastes it through
`keys.paste`, so it now follows the same rules as Paste: the layer's time stretch, the
selected target property, Hold-only properties, value conversion and roving keys (its own
simplified paste ignored them and kept existing keys' easing on a time collision).

- Every purge emptied the viewers' RAM preview; Purge ▸ All Disk Cache and Snapshot now leave
it (Image Cache Memory, All Memory, All Memory & Disk Cache, All and All 3D Cache still
clear it).
- The memory purges also drop the decoded footage frames (`FootageSource::purge`, the media
pool's `clear_frames`; decoders stay open), so footage reads decode again.

- Locked layers can't be selected (Timeline click, Select All, Ctrl+Up/Down; shy layers while
hidden too) and are left alone by Clear/Delete, Arrange, Layer ▸ Transform and Center Anchor
Point, which fail when every target is locked (`commands::unlocked`, `commands::selectable`).
- Deleting a parent unparents its children where they are, in the same undo step: the
pick-whip compensation moved out of `layer.setParent` into `layer::parent_fixes` /
`ParentFix::apply`, which now also handles separated X/Y Position.
- Bring Forward / Send Backward move each selected layer one step (a non-contiguous selection
was squeezed into one block).
- Center In View / Fit to Comp keep a 3D layer's Z (and Fit keeps Scale/Anchor Z); Reset /
Center / Fit / Center Anchor Point work with separated dimensions (`layer::update_position`).
- Duplicate and paste keep parents and track mattes, following the copies when both were
copied; paste dropped them always.
- Docs: agents, parity.

- GPU in the browser: each frame worker opens its own WebGPU device (Gpu::request_deferred) and
renders the GPU compositor and GPU effects with deferred readbacks (effectcraft-gpu deferred):
readbacks keyed by content start with map_async and miss, the pass returns placeholders, the
layer cache's gate drops inserts, and FrameServer::resume renders again once the device
delivered. Backend Auto times whole frames per comp in the workers. Frames with effects go to
GPU workers instead of the page. CPU fallback without WebGPU in workers (?nogpuworkers).
- Fix: a WGSL constant (3.40282347e38) that Chrome rejects invalidated every GPU kernel in Chrome
(the page's compositor too); a test checks every float literal fits f32.
- Disk cache in the Origin Private File System: workers write sealed frame entries with sync
access handles (temp file + move), the page keeps the DiskIndex (LRU under the settings' limit,
at most half the quota) and reads hits instead of rendering; survives reloads; blue cache bar.
- Storage manager: Settings ▸ Disk ▸ Browser Storage (usage/quota, persistent storage, Clear
buttons, automation ids) and storage.info / storage.persist / storage.clear (StorageHost).
- Docs: web.md (GPU workers, deferred passes, disk cache, storage manager, threading design:
one engine instance per worker), architecture, preferences, parity (WEB-1), roadmap.
- Tests: deferred passes vs CPU on a real device, placeholder gating, frame server passes and
Auto, GPU worker routing + disk cache across a reload, storage commands and widgets, store
usage by kind; smoke test: GPU effect frames in workers with pixel parity, disk hits after a
reload, storage manager.

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.

A real Settings model in the engine (`engine::prefs`): serde, versioned, dotted keys
(`general.undoLevels`, `labels.3.name`), migration of older layouts, unknown keys kept,
persisted through a `ConfigStore` trait (platform config dir on the desktop; MemoryConfig
for tests; the web app can back it with localStorage).
- After Effects 2026 pages (General … Scripting & Expressions) as a schema shared by the
dialog, `prefs.pages` and docs/preferences.md (rows not wired yet are listed there and
kept in step by a test).
- Commands: prefs.get, prefs.set {key, value | values}, prefs.reset {page?}, prefs.open
{page?}, prefs.pages.
- Wired settings: undo levels, path point size, tool tips, layers at comp start / CTI,
default spatial interpolation linear, Home screen on launch, new project template,
rendering progress in Info, adaptive resolution limit, cache when idle, fast previews,
theme + UI brightness, label names/colours everywhere (Label menu, timeline, project,
render queue, viewer), label colour for handles, grid colour/spacing/subdivisions, guide
colour, safe margins, still footage duration, sequence fps, audio output device and
output mapping, layer / footage / preview cache budgets, default 3D renderer.
- Settings dialog: AE's left page list + right content, OK / Cancel (restores) / Previous /
Next, every widget with an automation id.

Angle dial with revolutions (0x+45.0°), point crosshair + on-viewer effect
point controls via a small viewer hook, colour eyedropper sampling the
composited frame, Curves graph editor and Levels histogram/triangles bound
to their params, layer params with a Source/Masks/Effects & Masks companion,
mask (Path) popups, keyframe navigator, drag-to-reorder effect headers.
Engine: effect.copy / effect.paste / effect.reset; effect.remove takes the
selection; Edit > Copy/Paste/Duplicate/Clear act on selected effects; all
undoable.

- Integrate main (render queue, timeline/keys, time remap, masks/pen, 3D, MCP/CLI).
- Menu tree now runs renderQueue.add, layer.enableTimeRemap, layer.timeReverse,
layer.freezeFrame/OnLastFrame, prop.separateDimensions, mask.setClosed,
layer.cameraSettings, view.3d.* / view.3d.last / view.reset3DView, main's
layer.autoOrient and keyframe velocity/interpolation/time-stretch dialogs;
matching stubs deleted (view.3d.default stays disabled).
- Keyframe clipboard is main's (keys.copy/paste); Paste Reversed Keyframes
reuses it. Animation-menu commands moved to commands/animation.rs.
- Main's spec menu paths/labels aligned with AE (Camera Settings under
Layer > Camera, "..." labels, Freeze On Last Frame).

Engine (mask.rs, tests in tests_timeline.rs incl. render + undo/redo):
mask.new, mask.addVertex, mask.setVertex, mask.setClosed (Layer > Mask and Shape Path >
Closed), mask.selectVertices, mask.moveVertices (merged drags), mask.deleteVertices
(Delete with vertices selected), mask.remove / mask.removeAll (Layer > Mask). Edits of an
animated Mask Path key the current time.
Viewer: Pen tool on the selected layer - click = corner vertex, drag = Bezier vertex,
click the first vertex to close, Esc/Enter or another tool ends the path; rubber band to
the pointer. Selection tool: click/shift-click mask vertices, drag selected vertices,
drag tangent handles (symmetric; Alt breaks). Vertices register automation ids
viewer.mask.<uid>.vertex.<i>. Mode/inverted/feather/opacity/expansion stay in the
timeline mask rows.

Engine (all commands with undo/redo + tests in engine/src/tests_timeline.rs):
- keys.copy/paste (Edit Copy/Cut/Paste route to keys when keys are selected;
relative timing kept, paste at CTI, cross-property paste of same type),
keys.selectAll (Cmd+Alt+A), keys.nudge* (Alt+Arrow, Alt+Shift+Arrow),
keys.set / keys.setEase (graph editor drags), keys.info (dialog data),
keys.timeReverse; keys.interpolation gains continuous/auto Bezier, spatial
interpolation and roving; keys.velocity takes per-dimension values and
Continuous.
- Roving keys (keyframe::retime_roving): constant speed along the motion path.
- Layer > Time: layer.timeStretch (percent|duration, hold in/current/out),
layer.timeReverse (Cmd+Alt+R), layer.enableTimeRemap (Cmd+Alt+T),
layer.freezeFrame, layer.freezeOnLastFrame; render uses Time Remap as the
source time for precomp/footage layers.
- prop.separateDimensions (X/Y/Z Position; prop.set on Position writes them).
- layer.setParent compensates so the layer stays in place (compensate:false
to opt out).
- prop.pickWhip writes AE-style reference expressions (thisComp.layer(..),
effect(..)(..), mask(..).maskFeather, temp=…;[temp,temp], …[0]).
- prop.setExpression: syntax errors keep the text but disable the expression.
- expr: arrays of properties returned by an expression are resolved.
UI: Keyframe Velocity, Keyframe Interpolation and Time Stretch dialogs;
Graph Editor (value + speed graphs, draggable keys and Bezier/influence
handles, auto-zoom, fit, show selected, separate dimensions, hold/linear/
auto Bezier/Easy Ease buttons); key + layer context menus. Clears the
workspace clippy -D warnings failures.
