- Edit Contents: while an envelope's contents are edited, clicks hit the
content where it sits undistorted and the Selection tool selects it; the
menu item reads Edit Envelope then. No default shortcut: the reference
app's (Shift+Cmd+V) is Paste in Place here.
- A selected envelope shows its mesh (a warp's surface grid, a mesh's own,
a top object's outline) instead of its content's outlines.
- Mesh envelope points get bezier handles (append-only; none stored is the
smooth Catmull-Rom mesh, which the first handle edit fills in exactly
along the grid lines). setMeshPoint takes `handle`; object.mesh.movePoint,
addLine and deletePoint edit mesh envelopes too. The Mesh tool and Direct
Selection drag points and the clicked point's handles (shared MeshEdit);
the Mesh tool adds rows and columns inside mesh envelopes. Reset with
Mesh keeps the shape along the grid with handles; Release returns the
exact mesh.
- Control bar: Edit Envelope / Edit Contents, warp style, orientation,
bend and distortions or mesh rows and columns, Reset, Envelope Options.

Blend Options is a dedicated dialog (Spacing dropdown with its value,
Align to Page / Align to Path buttons, live preview) opened on the
selected blend's own options, so OK no longer turns Smooth Color into
5 steps; with nothing selected it sets what new blends start with
(object.blend.info reads them). The Blend tool blends from clicked
anchor points (blend spec `starts`), adds keys to an existing blend
instead of nesting it, opens Blend Options on double-click, Alt-click
and its toolbar button, and has its own cursors and hint.
