Edit ▸ Set default properties put the selected layer's properties into the Paste properties
clipboard and did nothing else: a rectangle drawn afterwards was still the default grey, and what
Copy properties had copied was replaced.
The defaults are now kept apart (`Session::default_props`: one set for shapes, set from any layer
but text, and one for text). Rectangles, ellipses, polygons and stars drawn or clicked with their
tools take the shape defaults: fills, strokes and their settings, effects, opacity, blend and
corners (only where the shape has corners), through `apply_copied_props`, the rules Paste
properties already used (now shared). New text from the Text tool takes a text layer's fills and
font and is laid out at that size. Frames, sections, slices, lines, arrows, vectors and layers made
by commands keep their own look; the help center is silent on those. `edit.setDefaultProperties`
answers `{for: shapes|text, properties}`.
Tests: `default_props_tests::new_shapes_drawn_with_the_tools_take_the_default_properties`,
`setting_defaults_leaves_the_copied_properties_alone`,
`new_text_takes_a_text_layers_defaults_and_shapes_keep_theirs`. Docs: ui-parity.md, ROADMAP.md.

layout.suggest used to run layout.add and made one row of everything. It now splits a frame's layers into rows or columns by the gaps between them, wraps each band of several layers in a hugging frame without fill and repeats inside it, so the design keeps its placement where the gaps are even. The frame keeps its size, and uneven gaps and layers that overlap along both axes come back as warnings.

file.export always encoded JPG at quality 90, and an sRGB document's JPGs
carried no colour profile, so viewers could only assume sRGB. PNG exports
always get an sRGB chunk, and Display P3 JPGs already embedded their ICC
profile.
- ExportSetting gets a quality (1 to 100, default 90, saved only when it
isn't 90), parsed with the other export options: file.export, export.add,
export.update, file.exportLayers and MCP export take it.
- encode_export_with takes the quality; encode_export keeps quality 90.
Every JPG now embeds the document's profile, sRGB included.
`file.import` of a FigCraft file kept the document's style, variable or
collection for every id both files used, and the pasted layers kept
those ids. Ids are numbered per file, so two files made apart share
them, and the imported layers were bound to the document's unrelated
variables, modes and styles.
`append_pages` now gives the incoming file new ids first (`Renames`):
- an incoming style, variable or collection is shared, as before, only
when the document has the same under its id and everything it names
is shared too (the same file imported again); a collection and its
variables are shared only together; library copies keep their ids;
- every other id the document already uses gets a new one from its
allocators, which now take ids to avoid (the incoming file's own);
- layers' style links, bindings, explicit modes and prototype actions,
styles' bindings, variables' collections, aliases, calculations and
extensions, and the renamed collections' mode ids follow.

text.weightUp/weightDown stepped the CSS weight by 100 and stored a canonical
name ("Medium", "Semi Bold", ...) whether the family had that face or not, so
the first press on Arial Regular changed nothing visible and the stored style
named a face no font provides. They now move to the nearest heavier or lighter
style of the family with the same slant and width (Narrow stays Narrow), and
stay put at either end. A family that isn't installed keeps the old 100 steps.
* Shortcuts: Cmd/Ctrl+Shift+Alt+= / - / 0 make the interface larger, smaller and default-sized

* Interface size keys: live while editing text too, and the new size draws on the next frame

* A preference set during a frame repaints this window too, so the interface size applies on the next frame

* Control channel: a preference changed by a hidden window's command repaints every window

Each export setting has a color profile: Same as file (the default, the
document's profile when it exports), sRGB or Display P3. PNG, JPG and
WebP settings list it in their advanced settings, and export.add,
export.update, file.export, file.exportLayers (for every setting) and
the MCP export tool take it as colorProfile. The rendered pixels are
converted to the chosen profile (out-of-gamut colors clip) and the file
is tagged as before: an sRGB chunk for sRGB PNG, the generated ICC
profile (and cICP in PNG) for Display P3; sRGB JPG and WebP stay
untagged. A setting keeps its choice when its format changes, and
settings saved without one read as Same as file.
SVG, PDF and Android XML show no choice and stay sRGB; PDF has no
output intent yet.
A widget description can have a line, 100 long and black and 1 thick unless told
otherwise, and an SVG that comes in as locked layers, scaled to fit a size and
within the widget's 256 layers. The Counter example uses both.
* M11: a widget opens its plugin's panel (plugin API 5)
Gap 6: a widget callback's ui_show opens the plugin's panel and keeps the module loaded; the panel's callbacks get the widget's id and state and redraw it in the same undo step. Older plugins' ui_show from a widget still opens nothing. The Counter example sets its count from a panel.
* M11: open_panel takes its opener as one value
* M4: the eyedropper with Cmd/Ctrl+Shift makes a colour style or variable of what it picks
* M4: the Create from color window's collection picker is its own function
* M12: an ended vote's results say who voted for each object
* M12: a board keeps earlier votes' results, listed in Results and deleted one at a time
* M12: the vote Results popover is drawn by small helpers, and its stepper, rows and Clear are tested
proto.linkNotice from the Actions palette, the control channel or MCP changed the preference in memory only until the app next saved its preferences. It now sets Session::prefs_unsaved, which the app saves at the end of the frame like installed plugins and live-session tokens; the notice's own Don't show this again goes the same way. Gap 15.
* M6: a pasted image the clipboard doesn't carry shows as missing and is named (#1646)
The placeholder an import stores for an image it lacks is now striped, not flat grey; the fill keeps the image's name; .fig and paste give a fixed, translated note per image; edit.pasteDesignLayers returns missingImages, the paste's message names those layers, and a paste with notes opens the import report.
* M6: the missing-image placeholder's stripes stay clean when scaled, and a .fig gives one note (#1646)
Builds on #1618. Variables::get and Variables::collection take an exact id before a name; stored mode ids go through Collection::mode_by_id (expressions, the prototype's mode switch); font family variables and the colour picker, prototype editor and panels read stored ids exactly. Ported from fix/stored-ids-exact.
The engine notes when a drag has only moved the selected layers by one offset (Interaction::moved_by); the canvas keeps the outlines, box and slots from the drag's start document and shifts them, the selection spacing and the Design panel's values (but the position fields) come from that document, and the Export section's values are kept. Dragging 648 layers: UI pass 2.10 to 1.44 ms a frame.
* M12: create the next board shape already connected (#1597)
A selected sticky or shape shows a + beside each side; hovering one previews where the next goes, clicking makes one of the same kind, size and colour there, joined by a connector, and starts typing in it, in one undo step. board.addConnected {id?, side?, edit?} does it from commands.
* M12: the connected-shape handle and command in every full catalog (#1597)
* M12: Shift+Cmd/Ctrl+Enter on a board shape adds the next one already connected (#1597)
Fonts name a family by its typographic name and by a legacy name per weight; fonts without typographic names are installed under the legacy ones only. FontDb::resolve finds either from the other, and matches names across case, spaces, hyphens and underscores; every lookup (import, paste, REST import, rendering, missing fonts, the font report) uses it. A weight-number style goes by that weight, and .fig and REST imports wait for the installed fonts to be indexed.
A colour variable's value in a mode can now be {"alpha": {"variable", "opacity"}} - that
variable's colour with its alpha replaced - or {"mix": {"from", "to", "t"}}, a per-channel blend
of two colour variables or literals over the stored values (in the document's colour profile),
alpha included. Calculations resolve lazily like aliases, so bound layers, mode switches,
instances and undo follow their sources; they compose, and a loop, or a calculation that reads
more than 32 variables in its collection's modes (other collections in their default modes), is
refused when it is set. Operands are stored by id and read by exact id, as stored references
are. Files keep them; REST, CSS, Penpot and .fig exports write the colour they show in each mode;
deleting a source leaves its readers on the colour they showed; library import and swap
re-point their operands. The Variables panel shows them with their formula and can swap one for
an alias or detach it to its colour.
