M8: Zoom to selection leaves Figma's 40 pt margin and clears the bottom toolbar

Zoom to selection (Shift+2) fits the selection into the canvas above the floating bottom toolbar with a 40 pt margin on all sides, centred in that area (measured in Figma's web app, 2026-11-09). ViewState gains an unsaved bottom_inset, set by the UI each frame from the toolbar pill and by view.set bottomInset. Zoom to fit is unchanged.

 Fine canvas control is what Figma users feel first: handles, snapping, nudging, modifier keys,
 drag behaviour, numeric precision. This checklist covers the tools, gestures and panels. Status:

+| 2026-11-09 | patch | Zoom to selection: the selection is fitted with a 40 pt margin into the canvas above the floating bottom toolbar (`ViewState::bottom_inset`, set by the UI each frame, never saved; `view.set` takes `bottomInset`) and centred in that area, as measured in Figma's web app on 2026-11-09. Zoom to fit is unchanged (margin not measured yet). Numbers unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-02 | patch | Shortcuts: a Cmd/Ctrl-click on a padding field (the horizontal or vertical pair, or a side with Individual padding open) makes the value typed go to all four sides, in one undo step (Guide to auto layout, Keyboard shortcut guide); a plain click still edits that axis or side alone. A documented gesture row: 134 documented, 133 bound. Test: `padding_individual_tests` |
 | 2026-11-01 | patch | Number fields: dragging the field itself with Alt held scrubs it ("You can also hover the input field itself and hold down the modifier key: Mac: ⌥ Option Windows: Alt", Adjust alignment, rotation, position, and dimensions), with the resize cursor and the label's rates (Alt is the enabler there, so it isn't the fine rate); a click with Alt doesn't open the editor. Found by a documentation audit of the ui-parity rows. Test: `field_tests::alt_held_over_a_field_scrubs_it`. Counts unchanged |
 | 2026-11-02 | patch | M6, #1839: with a shape or frame tool chosen and nothing selected, the arrows show a placement crosshair in the middle of the view and move it by the nudge amounts (`tool.crosshair`), Enter places the object there (`tool.place`), Escape or a tool change takes it away; the canvas draws the crosshair and `ui.inspect` reports it (`tool.crosshair`), the Keyboard shortcuts panel lists the gesture ("Use the arrow keys to activate the crosshair cursor...", Accessibility at Figma). The board Shapes tool places on it too (its 160 px shape centred, as the tool centres a press), and the view pans by the overshoot when the crosshair is nudged past its edge. Tests: `place_crosshair_tests`, `shortcut_keys_tests::arrows_show_and_move_the_placement_crosshair_with_a_shape_tool`. |
