- `keys.transform {fromStart}`: each step of a merged drag gives the whole transform since the
drag started and applies to the keys as they were then. Keys squeezed onto one frame on the
way (Alt-drag scaling, the transform box) are no longer merged for good, and a slow
transform-box move, whose per-frame offsets rounded to nothing, now moves the keys.
- Dragging a key in the Graph Editor moves every selected key in time and value (it moved only
the grabbed one), by how far the pointer went from where the button went down (the key no
longer jumps under the pointer); Shift keeps the drag to the time or the value axis.
- Shift+click toggles a key in or out of the selection; Ctrl+click switches Linear ↔ Auto
Bezier and Ctrl+Alt+click toggles Hold, as in the Timeline.
- The transform box and the Timeline's Alt-drag scale send whole-gesture values.

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.
