Advanced 3D: per-sample motion blur over the comp shutter, and blend modes / track
mattes / Preserve Transparency composited through the 2D path in depth order.

Shapes (SHP-2): Stroke Taper (pixels/percent start/end length, width, ease) and
Wave (amount, pixels/cycles, wavelength, phase) rendered as a variable-width
outline; Dash 2/Gap 2/Dash 3/Gap 3 (shape.dashes.add/remove, timeline +/-
buttons); radial gradient Highlight Length/Angle as a focal gradient.
Masks (MSK-1): mask feather points on the Mask Path (mask.featherPoint.*,
Mask Feather tool add/drag), per-point signed radius and tension, rendered
from the signed distance to the path; carried through vertex edits.
Motion blur (LYR-10): Adaptive Sample Limit comp setting; 2D layers take one
sample per pixel of shutter travel between Samples Per Frame and the limit.

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.

Auto backend keeps comps with 3D layers on the CPU compositor (3D runs are
still CPU-composited; the GPU round-trip made them slower).

New L3 crate effectcraft-gpu: a wgpu compute backend for the per-frame
compositing walk (layer transforms with the CPU's nearest/bilinear/bicubic
sampling and minification pre-filter, motion-blur accumulation, track
mattes, Preserve Transparency, layer style passes and knockout, all 38
blend modes as a WGSL port of color::blend, 8/16 bpc clamp+quantise,
colour-space conversions). 3D runs, adjustment and wireframe layers run on
the CPU between GPU steps. GPU effects with the CPU semantics: Gaussian,
Fast Box and Directional Blur, Glow, Levels, Curves, Hue/Saturation, Tint,
Fill, Gradient Ramp, Fractal Noise, Drop Shadow, Brightness & Contrast,
Exposure, Invert, Transform (registry gpu badge from effects::GPU_EFFECTS).
render: Backend (Cpu/Gpu/Auto) in RenderOpts, the Accelerator trait and
Renderer::accel, GPU effect chains in the effect stack, hooks for the GPU
walk. Project setting gpu_acceleration (Mercury GPU Acceleration / Software
Only), render.backend command, file.projectSettings renderer. Session and
Render Queue exports carry the accelerator. CLI --gpu and bench --gpu.
Tests compare GPU vs CPU renders (blend modes x bit depths, transforms,
masks, mattes, motion blur, colour management, styles, collapse,
adjustment fallback, every GPU effect) and skip without an adapter.

8/16 bpc projects clamp and quantise layer pixels after source/masks and
every effect, and the comp after every layer (16 bpc = 0..32768); 32 bpc
keeps over-range values. Blend modes without HDR support clamp their inputs
in 32 bpc. Working space (sRGB, Rec. 709, Rec. 2020, Display P3; matrices
derived from the published primaries), footage colour profiles from stream
metadata or Interpret Footage, Linearize Working Space and Blend Colors Using
1.0 Gamma. Layer cache keys include the colour settings. Project panel depth
button: click cycles, Alt-click opens Project Settings.

Implement 20 formerly disabled menu stubs: Look at Selected/All Layers
(2D viewer fit, 3D view cameras, active camera), Switch View Layout (1/2/4
views in the viewer) and Share View Options, Create Camera from 3D View,
Add Output Module (every module encodes the item's frames), Pre-render
(queue + Import & Replace Usage post-render action), Save Current Preview,
RotoBezier / Convert To Bezier Path, Group / Ungroup Shapes, Set First
Vertex, Free Transform Points, mask Motion Blur (sub-frame mask samples),
Feather Falloff (smooth/linear), Hide Locked Masks, and workspace
save / save as / edit. Tests incl. undo.

New L2 crate effectcraft-track: per-point feature/search region tracking with
pyramid normalized cross-correlation and Lucas-Kanade (similarity + gain/bias)
sub-pixel refinement, confidence, adapt/stop/extrapolate/continue actions,
RGB/luminance/saturation channels, blur/enhance pre-processing, and
homography/affine/similarity solves.
Project: Motion Trackers > Tracker n > Track Point n property tree
(GroupKind::Tracker with type, target and options). Engine: track.* commands
(new/motion/stabilize/property/select/setType/setTarget/options/setPoint/
analyze/stop/apply/reset/delete/status), background or blocking analysis
job with progress and cancel (one undo step), apply to Transform, Stabilize
and Corner Pin. Renderer::layer_source for the tracker's frames.

Convert to Editable Styles / Show All / Remove All / Drop Shadow ... Stroke now
run main's layer.style.* commands; the layer.styles stub is gone.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
- 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).

Layer Styles (Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Outer/Inner Glow, Bevel and Emboss, Satin,
Color/Gradient Overlay, Stroke) and Blending Options (Global Light, Fill Opacity, R/G/B,
Knockout, Blend Interior Styles as Group) as a layerStyles property group with AE names,
order and defaults. Rendered in layer space after effects (exterior passes composite with
their own blend modes below the body), cached per pass, scaled with render resolution.
Commands layer.style.* (menu Layer > Layer Styles), Global Light shared per comp, timeline
eye switches.
