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.

First in the menu, as in After Effects, and for the right-clicked comp rather than the one in the viewer: the dialog keeps the comp it edits and OK passes it to comp.settings. comp.settings with only {"comp": id} opens the dialog on that comp.
Problem: with the Project panel focused the arrow keys did nothing (After
Effects selects the previous / next item, extends with Shift and opens /
closes folders with Right / Left). The custom-drawn rows, sort headers,
twirls, label swatches, proxy switches and footer buttons reached
AccessKit with no name or role, the empty list area and each row's name
cell were unnamed extra Tab stops, a Tab-focused row showed no focus
ring, and the arrows then moved egui's spatial focus instead.
Fix: Up / Down select the previous / next row (Shift extends from the
anchor), Right opens and Left closes the selected folder or selects the
parent; the moved-to row scrolls into view. A row with keyboard focus
keeps the arrows, focus follows the selection and the panel takes focus.
Rows are AccessKit tree items named "<name>, <type>" with selected,
level and expanded state; headers and row / footer buttons are named
buttons; one Tab stop per row and a focus ring.

Problem: After Effects 26.2 spreads a Ctrl+Alt (Cmd+Opt) hot-text scrub
over the selected layers by selection order (first unchanged, last the
whole change, the ones between even shares). Our multi-layer scrub
(#491) always moved every selected layer by the same change.
Fix: prop.set takes `proportional` (with `selected` + `offset`); each
participating layer, the scrubbed one included, gets index/(n-1) of the
change in selection order, in one undo step; the first layer is left
alone (no key added). The Timeline value editor sends it while Ctrl+Alt
(Cmd+Opt) is held; that chord no longer fine-scrubs or unlinks Scale.

Problem: After Effects 26.3's font menu can show only variable fonts.
EffectCraft's font menus (Character panel, Properties ▸ Text) had no such
filter, and text.fonts / MCP list_fonts didn't say which families are
variable.
Fix: the font scan marks a face variable when its table directory has an
fvar table declaring axes (header read only, no extra file loading). The
font menu gets a "Variable fonts only" checkbox above the results; it
combines with the typed search, keeps the keyboard in the search field and
stays set while the app runs. text.fonts reports `variable` per family and
takes `{variable: true}`; list_fonts passes it through. Catalog rows for
ja, zh-Hans, zh-Hant and uk.

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.
