Cause: CC Particle World projected its particles through a fixed camera
(distance 2 layer widths, looking at the layer centre) and never asked the
host for the comp camera, so moving or orbiting a camera layer left the
particles flat on the layer. It also had no Extras > Effect Camera. Separately,
the layer cache key ignored the comp camera and lights, so the effects that
read them (Card Dance / Shatter / Card Wipe Comp Camera, First Comp Light,
Caustics) kept a stale frame when the camera, a light or the layer moved.
Fix: as the Cycore manual describes, Particle World sees its particles through
the comp's active camera layer when there is one (EffectHost::comp_scene now
says whether its camera is a camera layer's, CompScene::camera_layer), through
card3d's comp-camera projection (factored out of Card Dance as comp_proj, with
Proj::view for depth, size scale and screen velocity). Otherwise it uses the
new Extras > Effect Camera: Distance (2), Rotation X / Y / Z (0) and FOV (50)
orbit the world origin; FOV moves the camera so the origin's plane keeps the
scale Distance gives it, so the defaults reproduce the old fixed camera bit for
bit (golden hashes unchanged) and old projects render as before. The Effect
Camera is left out of the simulation cache key, so animating it doesn't
restart the simulation. The plan is shared, so the GPU compositor follows too.
The layer cache folds the comp scene into the key of layers running an effect
in effects::READS_COMP_SCENE (render::comp_scene is shared with the host).
Tests: sim particle_world_follows_the_comp_camera (panning a camera layer moves
the particles, zooming spreads them, the Effect Camera is ignored then, the
default view keeps the Effect Camera, cameras facing away / zero / NaN draw
nothing) and particle_world_effect_camera (missing params = defaults, rotation,
distance and FOV change the view, extremes stay finite, the sim key ignores the
camera); render particle_world_follows_the_comp_camera (a real camera layer
panned 40 px moves the particles left, and the cached render after the move
equals an uncached one: it failed with the old cache key); gpu
particle_world_through_the_comp_camera (CPU vs GPU at 8 / 32 bpc, full and
half resolution). particle_golden / sim_golden unchanged. effects.md
regenerated; parity.md and gaps.md describe the fix.

The Ease Presets panel (#254) is modelled on a third-party panel, so,
as with third-party tools in After Effects, it isn't core any more: it
is `extensions/scriptui-panels/Ease Presets.jsx`, a ScriptUI panel
bundled as an optional extension (Window ▸ Ease Presets.jsx), written
only against the public scripting API. Clicking a preset eases every
pair of neighbouring selected keyframes in one undo step (per
dimension, along the motion path for spatial properties, the keys'
other sides as they play); the fields edit the working curve, which the
panel draws; From Keys, Save, Rename and Delete as before. The twelve
built-in curves are unchanged.
Scripting API fixes it needed (After Effects parity):
- `app.settings` lasts between runs (`script_settings.json` in the
settings folder; `script.settings.get` / `script.settings.save`).
- Per-key methods (`setTemporalEaseAtKey`, `setInterpolationTypeAtKey`,
`removeKey`, the continuous / auto-Bezier / roving setters) no longer
change the user's key selection (they selected the key they edited).
- `keyInTemporalEase` / `keyOutTemporalEase` report linear and
auto-Bezier sides as they play, `keyIn/OutSpatialTangent` the
tangents the motion path plays.
- `selectedProperties` includes the properties of selected keyframes.
- `isInterpolationTypeValid` is false for Linear / Bezier on values that
only hold.
Removed from core: Window ▸ Ease Presets, the `keys.easePreset.*`
commands, `engine::ease_presets` and the `ease_presets.json` store,
`keyframe::EaseCurve` (nothing else used it) and the egui panel. User
presets saved by the v0.6.0 panel move into the panel's app.settings
section the first time settings load (the old file is left as is).
Docs: plugins.md (bundled extensions), parity.md, gaps.md G8, agents.md.
Test: app_settings_last_between_runs,
per_key_methods_keep_the_key_selection_and_report_eases_as_they_play,
spatial_tangents_are_reported_as_the_path_plays (each fails before),
the_ease_presets_panel_eases_every_selected_pair_in_one_undo_step,
a_typed_curve_scales_to_each_dimension_and_follows_motion_paths,
user_presets_save_rename_delete_and_persist,
presets_saved_by_the_old_core_panel_carry_over (script, through the
panel's controls), ease_presets_panel_eases_the_selected_keys_from_its_list
(UI: the panel docks and a click on a preset eases the keys).

EffectCraft's extension points compared with After Effects' (public
user guide and Scripting Guide) are now in docs/plugins.md, which
becomes "Plug-ins and extensions": scripts, ScriptUI panels and effect
plug-ins, with a short guide and an example panel for writing your own.
ScriptUI panels already came from `Scripts/ScriptUI Panels/` in the
settings folder, were listed at the bottom of the Window menu and
docked as tabs. What was missing: After Effects reopens the panels
that were open when it quit. Now the open panels are remembered in
`scriptui_panels.json` in the settings folder (a panel is added when
it opens and dropped when its tab or its script closes it; quitting
leaves the list), and `window.restoreScriptPanels` opens them again;
the desktop and web apps run it at start-up. A panel whose script is
gone or fails is reported and forgotten, and the others still open.
Where a panel was docked isn't kept, as workspace layouts aren't saved
between launches.
Gaps recorded in plugins.md and gaps.md G8: the Startup and Shutdown
script folders, keyboard shortcuts for scripts, ExtendScript's
`#include` / `#target` directives and `.jsxbin`.
Test: open_panels_open_again_at_the_next_launch (fails before: no
restore command), a_panel_dropped_in_the_folder_is_listed_and_opens_as_a_panel
(script), panels_open_at_quit_dock_again_at_launch (UI: the restored
panel docks with its controls; closing the tab forgets it).

Effects: effect points on shape layers start at the layer centre (#227)
# Conflicts:
# crates/ui-egui/src/panels/puppet_tool.rs
# crates/ui-egui/src/panels/viewer.rs
The menu bar has had a catalog since #229 (keyed by `(command, English label)`); everything below
it - panel labels, buttons, field names, tooltips, the sentences a panel draws itself - was written
straight into the code and stayed English in every language (#333).
This adds `crates/ui-egui/src/i18n/ui.rs`:
- Rows are keyed by the English source string, so a panel wraps a literal it already has instead of
inventing an id, and a row that is missing falls back to English rather than to an empty label.
- `tr("Rename")` translates a plain string; `tr_args("Proxy Use: {}", &[&quality])` fills the values
of a row that carries them. `tr_args` writes into its own buffer, so it cannot panic on a mismatch,
and a test keeps every row's placeholder count equal to its English source.
- The language in force is set once per frame from the resolved interface language - the same value
the CJK fonts are installed for - and kept in a thread-local, so the panels do not have to thread
it through every function. The render threads never draw interface text.
- Simplified and Traditional Chinese are complete (384 strings); the Japanese rows are still open,
and the catalog takes them without any other change.
Tests: the two Chinese catalogs must list the same source strings, no empty or duplicated rows, every
row must be asked for by a converted panel, and a converted panel that gains a hard-coded string in a
common call shape fails the build.
Shape and text layers have comp-sized effect bounds centred on their
origin, but effects measured positions from the origin: a point at its
default "layer centre" sat at the comp's bottom-right corner, so Twirl
on a centred shape changed nothing and Bulge only its bottom-right
quarter. As in After Effects, effects now work in effect space,
measured from the top-left of the layer's effect bounds.
The renderer moves the layer buffer into effect space for the whole
stack (Buf::rebase, CPU and GPU alike) and hands effects everything
else in it: masks, other layers' pixels for layer parameters (each in
its own effect space, so Set Matte and displacement maps see a whole
shape layer), the layer's own frames (layer_input, also what Puppet,
Roto Brush and the Layer panel read) and the comp camera
(CompScene::rebased). Layer bounds are now right for every effect, so
pin_rect and EffectEnv::bounds_origin go and layer_rect serves edge
pinning too. Adjustment layers still run on the comp below as it is.
effect_bounds / EvalCtx::effect_to_comp replace the repeated "comp size
when there is no source" code; the viewer's effect point handles and
eyedroppers, Puppet pins, the Layer panel (paint, Roto Brush) and the
tracker's Corner Pin output use them.
Project schema 2: opening a schema 1 project moves positions held by
effects on shape and text layers by half the comp size, so set points
keep their place (point parameters with keyframes, Paint paths and
clone positions, Puppet seeds and pins, Liquify and Roto Brush
strokes). Points still at their default become the layer centre;
expression controls, adjustment layers and expressions are left as
they are (docs/architecture.md). The disk cache's render version is
bumped.
Tests: default_effect_points_sit_at_the_centre_of_a_shape_layer and
layer_parameters_see_a_whole_shape_layer (render, both fail before),
effect_points_on_a_shape_layer (GPU vs CPU),
opening_a_schema_1_project_moves_shape_layer_effect_points_into_effect_space
(engine), and the effects migration tests.
Part of #227

A user suggested py-aep (MIT, Python), which reads and writes .aep
files. G4 now records it for the clean-room decision, with the two
ways it could be used: as an external converter, or ported, which
means reading another implementation of the format.

The reports of 8 October (#225-#227, #229-#231), their fixes (#235,
#237-#241), what remains of #227 (multi-monitor support, the Project
panel's empty-area menu, effect points on shape and text layers) and
the regression tests for each.

The ui_angles evidence (#141) moves next to G2's other regression
evidence; the Stability row notes the parent-chain hang, the label colour
panic and the contained GPU failures.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
gaps.md records the seven reports of 6 October (#85, #88, #89, #93, #103,
#106, #117), what they found in features marked done, their fixes of 7
October and the regression tests; parity.md's Interface, Animation and
Preview rows, the ROADMAP's reliability note and the README's panels
paragraph (drag and drop between panels) follow.

gaps.md records the Windows report and its fix under real-user experience and G2; parity.md's
Text row, the ROADMAP's reliability note and the README's Text bullet say text can use any
installed font; architecture.md says when the system font scan runs.

- effectcraft-segment: a FaceModel interface (find a face in a region, follow it; a Topology
maps the model's points to the tracker's landmarks and outline), a TensorFlow Lite reader and
interpreter (float ops, float16 weights folded; matches ai-edge-litert to ~1e-6), and
MediaPipe Face Landmarker (Google, Apache-2.0: BlazeFace + Face Mesh V2, 3.8 MB, pinned
SHA-256). The registry gains a task and authors per model; installed weights get a NOTICE.
- effectcraft-track: FaceTracker::new_with uses the model, falls back to the classical fitter
when it finds no face; chin and jaw come from the outline either way so measurements agree.
- Engine: roto_models becomes models (both tasks); face.models / face.model.* commands,
Settings ▸ Face Tracking, `wait` on select/install/download for scripts; track.mask reports
faceModel.
- Credits: ATTRIBUTION.md lists the optional models and the Apache-2.0 specs the code follows.
- Docs: README, ROADMAP (G7), gaps, parity (TRK-3 score unchanged pending G1), agents,
preferences, architecture, segment README.

parity.md's ≈99% measures breadth only. docs/gaps.md assesses real-world
readiness by dimension (fidelity, .aep interop, stability, platform
reliability, performance, media, AI tools, maturity) with evidence, and
sets prioritised workstreams with done criteria. ROADMAP, README, parity.md,
AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md point agents at it.
