Local variables: the docs say bulk actions skip inherited variables (#2002)

Delete, Move to group and Scope act on the selected local variables; inherited ones are left out and the bulk menu needs two or more local variables selected.

Rename and value edits stay single-row.
 - **2026-11-05** · M10, #2014: the desktop UI takes a system face for Ethiopic, Devanagari, Gurmukhi, Gujarati, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam, Sinhala, Lao, Myanmar, Khmer, Armenian and Georgian as it did for Hebrew and Arabic (`bidi::script_fallbacks`: one sample letter per script, the system's families for each; Bengali and Thai keep `crate::cjk`'s choice), so a layer name or a String variable's Amharic value draws in the panels instead of boxes. Test: `bidi::tests::other_scripts_take_an_installed_system_face`.
 - **2026-11-05** · M4, #1830: a paragraph's base direction can be forced (Text ▸ Text direction: Auto, Left to right, Right to left) as Add right-to-left text says ("controls are available to override text direction per paragraph"). `ParaList::direction`, `text.direction {direction, ids?}` and the three menu commands (the edited paragraphs while editing, else the layer's), `node.set textDirection`, the Type settings control once a right-to-left script is in the text, `textDirection` / `lineDirections` in inspect, the CSS `direction`, and the `.fig` lines' `sourceDirectionality` in and out. Layout gives each paragraph its base level (`Bidi::of` per paragraph). Tests: `text_behaviour_tests::text_direction_is_forced_per_paragraph`, `fig::text_direction_tests`.
 - **2026-11-05** · M1, #2003: the Design panel's Boolean groups menu leads Union, Subtract, Intersect and Exclude with original icons drawn in code from rectangles and polygons (two offset squares, the result filled at reduced alpha); each entry still runs its command.

 | 2026-11-02 | minor | M3, #1829: text styles carry paragraph spacing and indent, the list style and the OpenType features ("Supported in text styles": "Paragraph spacing and indentation", "Lists", "OpenType features", Create and apply text styles) beside the character properties: `style.create` takes them from the layer (or the selected paragraphs' list) or from a `value` (`paragraphSpacing`, `paragraphIndent`, `listStyle`, `features`), `style.apply` sets them (on a range, the list goes to the paragraphs touched; the rest is the layer's, as in Figma), `style.update` moves them on every linked layer, editing one on a styled text unlinks it as editing its font does, the style editor lists them, and a `.fig` file keeps them with the style (its sample layer). Grade unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-06 | patch | M3: a glass's light angle bound to a number past ±180 turns round to the same direction (270 is -90), as the angle drawn from it does, instead of stopping at 180. Tests: `effects_tests::a_bound_light_angle_turns_round_instead_of_stopping`. Grade unchanged. |
 | 2026-11-06 | patch | M3: a layer's effect binding (`variable.bind`, `effects/<i>/<field>`) takes only a field its effect has, as an effect style's does: `effects/0/refraction` on a drop shadow, or a binding on an effect the layer doesn't have, is refused instead of being kept and doing nothing (a binding an older file has there still does nothing, and unbinds).
