The wheel over the Layers panel's blend-mode dropdown (closed or open) steps to the next or previous mode, one per notch and one undo step each, stopping at the ends, as in Photoshop. Fractional wheel deltas add up to whole notches, and the wheel there no longer scrolls the panel (#1747).

View zoom now means device pixels per document pixel, so 100% shows one image pixel per physical
display pixel on a scaled (125%, 200%) display, as in Photoshop. Fit, Actual Pixels, pan/zoom anchoring,
scrollbars, the navigator, the pixel grid and every hit tolerance go through canvas_ppp / point_zoom.

The Crop options bar's overlay button opens Photoshop's overlay menu: six overlays, Auto/Always/Never
show modes, and O / Shift+O to cycle the overlay and its orientation. The default is Rule of Thirds with
Auto Show Overlay, as in Photoshop. ui.set takes cropOverlay, cropOverlayShow and cropOverlayOrientation.

Large Tabs makes the document tab strip taller (34 px) with larger type; turning off Export Clipboard stops copies being mirrored to the OS clipboard; Show Channels in Color tints the Channels panel thumbnails (RGB from black to the primary, CMYK from white to the ink).

With a pending crop frame, the arrows move it 1 px (Shift 10 px) instead of the selection or layer, X
swaps it between portrait and landscape about its centre (with the options-bar ratio), and the frame's
W x H shows beside the pointer while drawing or resizing it.

Radial Blur prepares its sample transforms once per filter (blur::radial::Plan) and shares them across output tiles, reading each bilinear tap once with channels kept together. Output is identical to the previous sampler at Draft, Good and Best, across colour models and depths (tests compare against the unchanged reference path); a failed table allocation falls back to that sampler. Measured on 24 MP RGBA8, Good, amount 1: Spin 66.1 -> 16.4 s, Zoom 19.2 -> 5.4 s (bench_radial example, docs/radial-blur-performance.md).

Fixes#1833. Control and MCP may run Edit Contents, Convert to Layers and Save Contents on smart objects whose source is in memory (embedded, or a Photoshop UUID backed by embedded liFD data). Before any disk read the engine re-checks the source's stored path through the session's authorize gate, including nested sources re-rendered while unpacking, so external linked files stay refused; explicit layer targets work with another layer selected, and interactive linked-file access is unchanged.

RAF's header, metadata records and Fuji IFD give size, packing (16-bit, 12-bit LSB-first,
14-bit in 32-bit words), layout, black, WB, crop and exposure bias; X-Trans and other
periodic non-Bayer CFAs go through a new edge-directed demosaic. Compressed and early
SuperCCD RAF stay unsupported (preview fallback). Tests use synthetic files only.

The document tab's context menu gains Reveal in Finder (a new file.revealInFinder command that reuses the smart-object reveal helper and targets the clicked tab's document), and dragging a tab sideways reorders the open documents through document.move, with a drop line, in both tab strips.

ui.inspect lists the open shell dialog (Workspace, Pixel Aspect Ratio, Show Extras,

Outside the crop frame the pointer is Photoshop's curved turn cursor and a drag turns the frame
about its centre (Shift: 15 degree steps) with an angle readout; handles resize along the turned

Arbitrary so the frame is upright, then the crop, in one undo step. Fixes#1792.

A host lists fonts in fonts/manifest.txt beside index.html (craft-fonts' manifest format, paths
kept inside the site); the web shell lists those families in the font menus and fetches a family
when it is picked or a layout needs it, then re-renders the affected type layers without a history
step. No manifest changes nothing; package.sh copies one in with PHOTOCRAFT_WEB_FONTS_DIR. The
style menu also lists the weights of a variable font's wght axis.

As in Photoshop CC 2019 and later, dragging an edge handle now scales both axes by the same
factor about the middle of the box (Alt: about the reference point), and Shift stretches the
one axis. Use Legacy Free Transform restores the old behaviour for edges as well as corners.

step_damage pairs layers by id and steps over a layer only one side has when it draws nothing
(an empty pixel layer or group in Normal/Pass Through, no masks, effects or Advanced Blending,
not a clipping base), so New Layer, New Group and their undo/redo report no damage. Adds the
P51 perf scenario (new layer in the 150-layer document). Fixes#1771.

document.inspect (and photocraft-cli info) now gives every smart object a
smartSource: embedded with its file name, or linked with a file path or,
for a PSD placed layer, the Idnt uuid its duplicates share. A script can
then tell duplicates of one placed file from independent contents, e.g.
to check that every location in a mockup template has its own art.

Double-clicking the MSI now opens WixUI_InstallDir without the licence page:
Welcome, install folder (remembered for upgrades in
HKLM\Software\PhotoCraft\InstallDir), Ready, progress, and a Finish page with
a ticked "Launch PhotoCraft" box (WixShellExec, unelevated). The pages name
the full version, pre-release tag included (photocraft.en-us.wxl).
package.ps1 draws the banner and side bitmaps from the app icon, so no WiX
stock art ships. msiexec /qn still installs silently. The release and ARM64
workflows install the WiX UI and Util extensions; packaging-lint checks the
.wxl. Ported from VectorCraft (storytold/vectorcraft@aa548d2).

Indexed Color accepted fractional colour counts and computed its live preview on the UI thread.
Counts are now whole numbers in 2-256 with a linear slider snapping at 8/16/32/64/128/256, and on
native builds the preview runs on one background worker that coalesces slider drags and rejects
stale results. Nearest-colour lookup uses an exact kd-tree above 64 entries (identical indices,
256 colours at 4.2 MP: 3018 -> 1061 ms). Web and inline sessions stay synchronous.

A new filter that removes a chosen colour by unmixing it into transparency, as GIMP's and
Krita's Color to Alpha do: per pixel the most transparent opacity that keeps the unmixed colour
in range, shaped by transparency and opacity thresholds. It runs through run_filter (selection,
smart filters, Last Filter, one history step), floats the Background first and refuses a
transparency-locked layer; the filter dialog gains a colour parameter. Fixes#1576.

The Eyedropper options bar now has Photoshop's Sample Size (Point Sample,
3 by 3 ... 101 by 101 Average), Sample (Current Layer, Current & Below,
All Layers, All Layers No Adjustments, Current & Below No Adjustments)
and Show Sampling Ring.
- engine: new `document.sampleColor {x, y, size, sampleLayer}`
(sample_cmds.rs). Averages the square centred on the pixel, clipped to
the canvas, alpha-weighted, in the document's colour model (Gray, Lab;
CMYK documents use their composite RGB, since the profile round trip
is not exact) and rounded to the document's bit depth.
- ui: eyedropper_ui.rs options bar; state.rs ToolOptions
eyedropper_size / eyedropper_sample / eyedropper_ring (serde). The
size is shared with the painting tools' Alt-click eyedropper, the
Curves / Color Picker eyedroppers and the Info panel readout.
- control: ui.set eyedropperSampleSize / eyedropperSample /
eyedropperRing; documented in control-protocol.md and the MCP schema.
- i18n: new strings in all 14 catalogs (plus the missing Russian hint
the tl! scan had not reached).
- scorecard: TOOL-1649-1.
The brush was one global session setting (only its smoothing was per tool), so
switching tools carried the size, hardness, mode, opacity, flow and dynamics
over. sync_tool_smoothing becomes sync_tool_brush: it saves the session brush
for the outgoing tool and loads the new tool's on every switch. UiState's
smoothing_tool/tool_smoothing become brush_tool/tool_brushes (serde default, so
saved UI state still loads), and the session's own fields (colours, erase flag,
stroke seed) are never carried across a swap.
Called from the frame start, the options bar before the brush chip, both canvas
stroke paths, ui.set {tool} (so tool + brushSize in one call sets the new tool's
size) and select_tool_preset. A tool seen for the first time inherits the brush
in hand at Photoshop's 10 % smoothing.
Tests: each_tool_keeps_its_own_brush, the renamed per-tool smoothing test,
per-tool coverage in the ui.set brushSize test, and pencil_tests switching tools
before setting the smoothing as the options bar does.
