Summary

Do not merge. This is the integration branch for the 3D-effects workstream. At any time it holds every open PR of the workstream on top of main, so the whole set can be run and tested in one place. CI on this PR is also the combined check.

Each change still lands through its own PR. This branch is rebuilt from main whenever one of them moves.

Included

PR	Branch
#679	fix/privacy-blur-follows-zoom — privacy blur follows the content under zoom and 3D tilt
#680	fix/cursor-bounce-clamp — click-bounce cursor size clamped, envelope pinned
#681	fix/linux-kawase-parity — Linux background blur matches HLSL/Metal

Rebuilding

git fetch origin
git switch -C integration/chantier-3d origin/main
for b in fix/privacy-blur-follows-zoom fix/cursor-bounce-clamp fix/linux-kawase-parity; do
  git merge --no-ff --no-edit "origin/$b" -m "integration: merge $b"
done
git push --force-with-lease origin integration/chantier-3d

Add a branch to the loop and to the table when a new PR joins the workstream. When a PR merges, remove it from both: main already carries it.

What exists today

The 3D tilt is not to build, it already runs. regions.rs:615 rotated_quad_corners_px projects the
screen's four corners and returns a TiltedQuad; three shader modes consume it: 8 the screen,
12 its drop shadow, 13 the cursor sprite. The moment the rotation is identity, the screen
falls back to the flat path (mode 0), the only one carrying motion blur.

Angles are frozen into three presets (iso, left, right) chosen so that no edge comes within
2° of an image axis — a vertical edge crossing text reads as an overflow: hidden and was
reported three times as "the recording is truncated". The real margin is thin: 3.14° for iso,
3.06° for left/right.

frame_geometry.rs computes a frame's geometry once for all three backends. Bug #179
(annotations under zoom) came back on Linux because each backend kept its own copy.

The tax on every PR

An effect always crosses the same chain, and that decides the split far more than the difficulty
of the effect itself.

Stage	Files	Typical cost
Document + settings	schema/index.ts, migrate.ts, editorSettings.ts, projectPersistence.ts	small, but a broken migration breaks existing projects
Scene contract	sceneDescription.ts, contracts.ts, scene.rs	duplicated types, TS and Rust, same commit
Per-frame math	frame_geometry.rs, regions.rs	shared by all 3 backends, testable without a GPU
Shaders	shaders.hlsl, shaders.metal, vk_shaders/layer.wgsl	×3, or nothing — a mode missing on one backend is an invisible layer on that platform
Constant buffer	LayerCB (128 bytes, pinned by an offset test)	untouched — each PR reuses the free slots of its own mode

PR 0 — Frame and control mockups

design: mockups for device frames and 3D controls — no code, blocks PR 4.

Decide the angle before writing the shader. A canvas: 4 frames (window chrome, browser, laptop,
phone) × 3 attitudes (flat, iso, left), light and dark, with the mode-12 shadow underneath. Also
mock the zoom inspector and Composition panel with the PR 1–5 controls, to check we're not
stacking six sliders. Output: each frame's normalized insets, outer radius, shadow margin — exactly
what PR 4 consumes.

PR 1 — The tilt breathes with the cursor

feat(zoom): drive the 3D tilt from cursor motion — CPU only, 0 shaders, changes existing
rendering.

Today the plane holds a frozen angle for the whole region. It must lean into the gesture: the
camera orbits a bit as the cursor moves fast, and returns to the preset attitude at rest. Active
on iso, left and right — existing projects' rendering changes, deliberately, and the PR says
so.

Law: rot = préset·strength + budget(k · vitesse_lissée(t)) · smoothstep(0.5, 1, strength).
Velocity, not position — in auto focus mode the camera already centers on the cursor, so a
position-driven effect would vanish in the most-used mode; velocity works everywhere and settles
to zero at rest. The smoothstep holds back motion while the tilt isn't installed yet: during the
ease-in, under 48% strength, the base itself is already inside the 2° band.

Angle budget (shared with PR 2b — parallax and the click impact add together, then the sum is
clamped): Z: 0 (narrowest axis, ~1° before breaking the 2° rule). X: ±1.9° (limit of
left/right, tightest on this axis). Y: ±3° (left overflows its box past that even at
frozen scale, 0.46% margin left at +3°). These numbers come from an f32 port of the code, not from
the crate's tests — the PR starts by reproducing them in a regions.rs test before using them.

Frozen scale. The contain scale is recomputed every frame from the instantaneous angle.
Uncorrected, 3° of motion makes the whole plane breathe 28–57 px at 1080p, dragging the shadow's
roundness and the cursor's clip box along in the same step. Fix:
rotated_quad_corners_px(w, h, rot_base, rot_dyn) — scale is computed from the base only (preset ×
strength), the dynamic part only reprojects the corners. The slack the loop already leaves
(3.8–6%) absorbs the budget above. (Correction from rev 1: freezing on the region's max envelope
was wrong — during the ease-in it would shrink a still-flat plane by 18%.)

Anchor point. A dynamic_tilt(t, track, cut, strength) helper in regions.rs, called once from
plan_frame after g.cut is known — PR 2b needs to aim from the same point, so both effects share
this single anchor. Derive follow_samples (already spring-smoothed), never raw at(), and
no per-frame integrator: a frame stays a pure function of t (cursor.rs:53-62).

Dropped from rev 1: the dynamic zero-base preset. Starting from identity breaks the 2° rule
at any amplitude (a rotation on one or two axes leaves a pair of edges exactly on-axis), and every
move would flip the screen between mode 0 and mode 8, motion blur included. Parallax on the
existing presets covers the need.

Tests: regions.rs — bounded amplitude, zero rotation with no track, nothing during the ease-in,
2° rule over the whole budget sweep and not just the presets; quad.scale constant when only the
dynamic part moves; the rotation scene for bench.rs --scene (the tilt has no measurement today —
this feeds PR 2b and PR 5 too).

PR 2 — The cursor gets volume

feat(cursor): extrude the cursor along the screen normal — mode 13 extended ×3, off by default.

The screen stays flat; the cursor carries the volume. It points along the axis of the targeted
plane, has thickness, casts a contact shadow.

Implementation: no mesh — an extrusion by repetition. ~10 samples of the alpha silhouette
offset along e, side faces darkened by tap depth, front face untouched. e = the plane normal
rotated by zoom_rotation, projected, × thickness in px; at flat it's ~0, fallback to 2-3 px
toward bottom-right. No new mode: mode 13 leaves mb free — mb.xy = e, mb.z = taps, and
taps ≤ 1 reproduces today's render byte-for-byte. When volume is on, the cursor always goes
through mode 13, with an identity quad when flat: at zero rotation, TiltedQuad gives back exactly
mode 7's rectangle. The contact shadow reuses mode 12 on a small quad under the tip — check: a
radius above 0.8× the half-side flips the line_cross-inset quad, so cap at 0.8×.

Plumbing: frame_geometry.rs:1201 CursorPlan already computes the cursor tilt; add e.
Setting cursor.volume 0..1, 0 by default, in CursorVisualSettings → SceneCursor → cursor
panel.

Traps: sprite alpha is straight (modes 7, 13), D2D text premultiplied (mode 11) — mixing them
up gives a washed-out cursor with no error. The Windows math dot+ring fallback (mode 4) stays
upright even on a tilted plane; macOS has no fallback at all — if the sprite fails to load, the
volume vanishes: say so, don't hide it. Some shipped cursor packs already paint a shadow in the
PNG; the extrusion would double it — documented rather than blocked, since volume defaults to 0.

PR 2b — The click presses into the footage (new)

feat(zoom): rock the tilted screen on each click — 0 shaders, depends on PR 1.

The cursor comes down and taps the plane, and the plane gives: it pivots slightly toward the click
side, then eases back with a small rebound. A click bounce applied to the footage, timed to the
cursor's own bounce so it reads as one physical contact.

What it is: a rigid pivot about the centre, whose axis is chosen by the click position — the
clicked side recedes. The plane doesn't deform locally; the geometry can't draw that
(project_corner starts from a z = 0 point, the warp is bilinear). The spec says so, so nobody
expects a bump.

Law: rot_dyn += A · tap((t − t_c) / 0.26) · [+dy, −dx, 0], with
tap(e) = −sin(2πe)·(1−e)² / 0.610 for 0 ≤ e < 1, else 0. dx, dy: click offset from the
visible crop's centre (g.cut), in [−1, 1], y downward. Sign checked against
project_corner: +Y recedes the right edge, −X the bottom edge, and tap is −1 at contact —
click on the right → the right edge recedes.

The timing. bounce() stays untouched — it's the shipped cursor animation. tap() is a sister
curve sharing its contact instant (49 ms) and window (260 ms), but without bounce()'s slope break
at 98.8 ms (×2.45) — invisible on a 30 px sprite, harsh on a whole plane. It settles back to zero
with zero slope. Softer rebound (0.16 vs 0.67): a screen weighs more than a pointer.

Gates: plane already tilted (only on a region with a preset, after the ease-in, same
smoothstep as PR 1 — never a mode 0 ↔ mode 8 flip, so no extra motion-blur loss beyond what
already exists); cursor visible (multiply by cursorShow, auto-hide opacity, the region's
hideCursor, "pointer inside the crop" — these gates live only in plan_cursor today, extract
them into a shared helper); preview = export (preview loads the track even with cursor hidden,
export doesn't — the explicit cursorShow gate closes that gap for this effect); cuts (ignore
clicks outside the active clip's source window — both paths load the whole file, so an
uncut-then-cut click would bleed 260 ms into kept frames, exactly what under_trim prevents for
zooms); speed (weight clamp(2 − speed_at(t), 0, 1) — at 100× a frame covers 3.3 s of source, the
curve would sample once, at random, as a one-frame jolt); privacy masks (dynamic offset held at
zero while a blur/mosaic annotation is visible, until the separate fix lands — see "found along the
way").

Details: aim frozen at the click (at(t_c) on the raw track, not at(t), or a drag would
wobble the axis mid-impact); double click (sum the window's clicks then clamp to [−1, 1] —
bounce() keeps only the last and jumps 0.21 (0.52 at default) — invisible on the cursor, a jolt on
the plane; at 33 ms apart the raw sum reaches 1.81); amplitude a constant A calibrated beside the
presets in PR 1's budget, not the clickBounce setting (that's the cursor's, raw on [0,5] with
default 2.5, would make the plane 2.5× too strong); no click (no sidecar, Linux outside the input
group) → exact identity, via the same Option as the rest of the cursor path.

Control: "Click impact" checkbox in the zoom inspector, under the 3D selector, disabled with its
reason when the preset is "none". Per-region setting like the preset it animates:
ZoomRegion.clickImpact?: true, omitted when false. Off by default.

Later: long-press — the plane stays pressed during a drag. Windows/macOS sidecars do record
release (mouseup), but CursorTrack::load discards it (cursor.rs:130-132), Linux never records
it, and a tap shorter than the sampling interval (33 ms) is lost. A v2, with a fallback duration for
a press without a release.

Tests: tap values in regions.rs (trough −1 at 49.5 ms, rebound +0.16 at 165 ms, zero and
flat slope at 260 ms), bounded sum on double click, every gate that cancels the effect, the sign
(right click → right edge z decreases), frozen scale during the impact, 2° rule over the sweep.

PR 3a — A programme time in the scene

feat(compositor): expose programme time to the frame geometry — plumbing, prerequisite of 3b.

The compositor has no continuous clock at all. It knows the active clip's source time
(live.rs:550 sets the decoder's pts, timeline_walk.rs:327 the target source time) and a counter
that, live, is just a tick (self.idx). An animated background wired to that jumps at every cut and
doesn't replay the same frame after a scrub.

set_programme_time(Option<f32>) on all three compositors, carried to FrameGeometry. Export:
frames / out_fps, already passed to compose_frame. Live: the programme playhead, already known
to the renderer and sent over the napi. Test: compose the same programme instant via linear
playback and via seek, check the parameter matches.

PR 3b — Animated backgrounds

feat(background): animate the gradient wallpapers — mode 5 extended ×3, no new mode.

No second catalogue: keep the wallpaper picker, add "Animate" + a motion choice on existing
gradients. Three motions: drift — the gradient axis breathes slowly, ±15° over 20 s; aurora
— two or three gaussian blobs in the stops' colors, over slow noise; waves — soft sine bands
perpendicular to the axis.

The lazy part: mode 5 only reads color, src.xyz, fx.xy. Extend the existing branch:
fx.z = programme time, fx.w = motion, 0 reproduces today's gradient byte-for-byte. No new
mode, no new binding.

Constraints: long period (8-20 s), low contrast — the background never wins attention. The
real cost is bitrate, not ms/frame: a moving background removes static regions, so H.264 bitrate
rises at equal quality — measure file size before/after, not just render time.

Tests: hash goldens at three fixed programme times, per backend. C9 bench row (the background
joins the ladder), plus file size.

PR 4a — A frame around the recording

feat(frames): draw a window chrome around the screen plane — 1 mode ×3, project setting.

Prove the layer with one frame: window chrome (title bar, three dots, hairline). SDF-drawn:
sharp at any resolution, follows light/dark, no asset. Project setting, like the wallpaper.

Geometry: the screen quad dilated by the frame's margins, computed in frame_geometry.rs from
the same TiltedQuad — tilts with the screen with no extra trig, zooms with the box since #179.

Traps: the shadow changes owner — mode 12 must carry the frame's quad, or the shadow appears
under the title bar; padding — padding_scale and the screen box must account for the frame, or it
overflows the canvas at small padding; the frame's outer radius replaces the screen's — the
Roundness slider doesn't duplicate.

PR 4b — The frame catalogue

feat(frames): add the frame catalogue and its picker — reuses mode 13, drawing.

Browser, laptop, phone, from PR 0's mockups. Hand-drawn SVGs rasterized on load, then dropped into
the quad — mode 13 already knows how to warp an RGBA image into four arbitrary corners.

Legal: no rendering of a real device — generic shapes we drew, MIT like the rest.

To decide: the phone frame is portrait — it forces an output ratio different from the export's.
Either it ships separately, or it arrives with the ratio logic that goes with it.

PR 5a — Depth comes out of the geometry

refactor(compositor): carry the tilted plane's depth gradient to mode 8 — byte-identical output.

Depth doesn't exist anywhere today: project_corner computes pz then throws it away
(regions.rs:548-576). This is the real work of the depth-of-field, and it's on the CPU side.

Closed form: z = (r.x − 0.5)·gx + (r.y − 0.5)·gy, gx = plane_px.x · Kx,
gy = plane_px.y · Ky — z is linear in the coordinates mode 8's warp already recovers; two
multiply-adds per pixel, no per-pixel trig; Kx/Ky fall out of sines/cosines the CPU already
computes.

The real numbers: on iso, 16:9 — the near corner is drawn 1.48× larger than the far
corner (left/right: 1.39×). The spread is ±0.19 of the perspective distance at the corners, and
this ratio is independent of resolution and zoom — perspective derives from the plane's own
size, so the tuning is done once, in z/P units. At flat, the effect disappears structurally — mode
8 isn't drawn at all.

What: TiltedQuad also returns (Kx, Ky). The three mode-8 call sites fill
mb = [gx, gy, z_focus, k], a slot this mode never reads, with k = 0. Shaders still ignore it —
output identical to the byte.

Tests: the sign — for iso, z(bottom-left) < z(top-right), the far corner. A flipped sign would
blur the near corner and the 2° rule wouldn't see it. z_focus passed through the crop actually
drawn, never (0.5, 0.5).

PR 5b — Depth of field on the tilted plane

feat(effects): defocus the tilted screen by its depth — all 3 backends in the same PR, paid only
while tilted.

On a strong angle, part of the content really is far from the camera, and it's not what's being
read — the zoom's focus point is. Defocusing by real depth is therefore legitimate, and the effect
self-disables at flat. Focal plane = zoom focus; blur grows with |z − z_focus|.

The obstacle: mode 10 blurs via log2(radius) on a mip pyramid. Mode 8 can't imitate it —
decoder textures have only one mip level on all three backends (D3D11VA NV12 pool, IOSurface
planes, three wgpu R8 planes), and cannot receive more.

The route: a half-resolution, 5-level pyramid, filled by a single draw of the existing
mode 0, only while rotation is non-identity. A 2:1 bilinear sample is a 2×2 average — this target
is level 1. The chain builds with the call each backend already has for ann_copy:
GenerateMips, blit.generate_mipmaps, and Linux's per-level loop from generate_ann_mips,
generalized. In mode 8: under 0.5 texel of blur, sample_yuv(uv) as today, byte-for-byte. Beyond
that, fade to SampleLevel(pyr, uv, log2(coc) − 1). Sharp text never round-trips through
RGBA. Sized against the decoder texture: mode 8's UV math doesn't change.

Estimated cost:

Path	Overhead while tilted
1080p export, D3D11	0.3 – 0.6 ms/frame
4K export	1.2 – 2.4 ms/frame
1080p preview	1.5 – 3.5 ms/frame
CPU backend (WARP)	5 – 15 ms/frame
VRAM, 1080p / 4K recording	+2.8 MB / +11 MB

Extrapolated from rows C4 and C8, not measured. Preview costs ~6× the export on background blur;
Linux adds 4 passes; WARP collapses 17–23× on this kind of loop. If the CPU backend exceeds 10 ms,
one shared flag turns DoF off there.

Rejected: the 21-tap Vogel disk (blur_webcam_bg) — 3.5-5 ms/frame at export, near the whole
encoder budget, collapses on WARP, and a step computed in quad px added to source-space UV, wrong
by the zoom factor; reusing ann_copy — filled after the screen, by design, and indexed in
output space; the Kawase targets — self-consuming and running before the screen exists; a few
offset taps — this repo already paid that lesson, it superimposes copies and reads as ghost text
(shaders.hlsl:328-332); a full-resolution copy — 4× the VRAM, and sharp text round-trips through
RGBA for nothing.

Traps: silent effect on one backend — if Metal loses mip_filter::linear or the wgpu view has
one level, level(lod) returns level 0: sharp on macOS/Linux, blurred on Windows. Per-backend
golden: iso, bottom-left blurrier than top-right, identical at zero rotation; wrong texture bound
— draw_video only binds t0/t1: t2 holds whatever the previous draw left there. Bind the pyramid
explicitly on every mode-8 draw (t2, texture(2), WGSL binding 4, never binding 1 which carries
luma); transparent pyramid — a default LayerCB has color.a = 0, so mode 0 outputs alpha 0.
Prepass with color = [1,1,1,1], target cleared first; focus jump — if auto-follow loses the
track, focus falls back to the static point and the sharp plane jumps. Keep the last resolved
focus; legibility ceiling — at level 2, a 4×4 block merges the stems of an "m" at 1080p. Ceiling to
validate on a text-heavy recording, exported at levels 1 and 2. The cursor (mode 13) stays sharp on
a blurred far corner — accepted in v1: in auto focus mode, focus already sits on the cursor.

Slot conflict: depth takes mode 8's mb. Adding motion blur to the tilted plane later (8 floats
for previous corners) won't fit the remaining 6 — that day, the constant buffer grows on all three
backends.

Merge order

1. PR 0 — mockups. Blocks only PR 4; runs in parallel with the rest.
2. PR 1 — parallax, frozen scale, bench scene. Zero GPU, lowest risk. Sets the anchor point and
   the angle budget that 2b and 5 reuse.
3. PR 2 — cursor volume. Independent of PR 1, better with it.
4. PR 2b — the click presses into the footage. After PR 1: same helper, same budget. Ideally
   after the privacy-mask fix.
5. PR 3a → 3b — programme time, then animated backgrounds. 3a is small with no visible effect;
   merged alone it's read for what it is.
6. PR 4a → 4b — one frame, then the catalogue. 4a validates shadow, padding and radius with a
   single shape.
7. PR 5a → 5b — depth, then depth of field. 5a changes no pixel and is proven by existing tests;
   5b lands on all three backends at once, never one alone.

Found along the way — fixed by PRs #679, #680, #681, merged into #682

• Privacy blur didn't follow the content under zoom or tilt — a mask hid a fixed OUTPUT
  rectangle instead of the covered content; up to 100% of the secret was visible under a 2× zoom.
  Fixed by FrameGeometry::privacy_mask (PR fix(compositor): keep privacy blur on its content under zoom and 3D tilt #679). This was the direct reason for the "privacy
  masks" gate in PR 2b above.
• Click Bounce could drive the cursor size negative — above 4.17 on the 0-5 slider, unclamped.
  Fixed, with the envelope pinned by a test (PR fix(compositor): clamp the click-bounce cursor size at zero #680).
• Linux background blur used different Kawase kernels than Windows/macOS — the same project
  blurred differently per platform. Fixed, with a per-axis parity test (PR fix(compositor): match the Linux background blur to the HLSL/Metal Kawase #681).

Open decisions

1. Parallax on existing presets: yes — rendering of existing projects changes, PR 1 says so.
2. Cursor volume: off by default — cursor.volume = 0; click impact follows the same rule.
3. Depth of field: driven by real angle — indexed on the plane's actual depth, zero when flat,
   strong on marked angles.
4. Frames: project setting — like the wallpaper.
5. Still open: click impact, per-region or per-project? Leaning per-region: it animates a preset
   that's itself per-region, and the checkbox can say why it's greyed out. Per-project, it would act
   on tilt-free zooms where it does nothing visible.

Décision PR 4b : device frames en volume (16/09/2026)

• Le téléphone et les autres devices sont validés.
• Les mouvements de caméra étant réels, chaque device est un modèle 3D schématisé, avec épaisseur et tranche. Un cadre plat collé au footage est exclu.
• Le portrait doit tout de même respecter la règle des 2°.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The PR adds a follow-cursor 3D camera, projective screen rendering, depth of field, window frames, animated gradients, modeled cursors, click impacts, programme-time synchronization, and editor controls. It updates native serialization, persistence, migrations, localization, tests, and documentation across compositor and UI layers.

Changes

3D compositor and camera pipeline

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Camera and geometry contracts crates/compositor/src/camera.rs, crates/compositor/src/regions.rs, crates/compositor/src/cursor.rs, crates/compositor/src/cursor_sdf.rs, crates/compositor/src/scene.rs	Adds the follow-cursor orbit camera, dynamic tilt and click-impact state, projective quad metadata, cursor click pinning, cursor SDF generation, and scene fields for frames, gradient motion, depth of field, click impact, and modeled cursors.
Cross-backend rendering crates/compositor/src/compositor_linux.rs, crates/compositor/src/compositor_macos.rs, crates/compositor/src/compositor_windows.rs	Adds programme-time plumbing, depth-of-field mip pyramids, shared frame and shadow geometry, window-frame rendering, modeled-cursor rendering, click-impact layers, and cached SDF textures across compositor backends.
Shader effects crates/compositor/src/shaders.metal, crates/compositor/src/vk_shaders/layer.wgsl	Adds projective inverse warps, animated gradients, window-frame modes, depth-of-field sampling, modeled-cursor ray marching, and click-impact shaders.
Compositor validation crates/compositor/tests/*	Adds rendering and unit coverage for camera projection, zero roll, dynamic tilt, depth of field, window frames, animated backgrounds, modeled cursors, click impacts, cursor anchoring, and programme-time seeking.

Editor and native integration

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Settings and serialization contracts src/components/video-editor/*, src/lib/ai-edition/*, src/lib/projectDefaults.ts, src/native/sceneDescription.ts, src/native/nativeCompositorStore.ts	Adds persisted types, defaults, validation, migrations, style-preset fields, scene serialization, native compositor parameters, and compatibility handling for the new effects.
Editor controls and preview layout src/components/ai-edition/*, src/lib/compositeLayout.ts	Adds controls for background motion, window frames, depth of field, camera presets, click impact, and modeled cursors. Preview overlays use the framed content rectangle.
Runtime and export timing crates/compositor/src/live.rs, crates/compositor/src/timeline_walk.rs	Adds programme-clock reconstruction and sends programme time to the compositor during preview and export. The live inspector also forwards the modeled-cursor setting.

Supporting updates

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Fixtures, localization, and documentation crates/fixture/*, src/i18n/locales/*, docs/*, technical-documentation/*	Adds scene fixtures, translated settings labels, the 3D-effects specification, rendering-performance notes, and updated manual checks.
Development startup behavior electron/dev-http-cache.ts, electron/dev-http-cache.test.ts, electron/main.ts	Disables the Chromium HTTP cache during Vite development when the dev-server URL is present and tests both environment paths.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 24f8f

The change is broadly mergeable, but it leaves one effect difficult to disable, mistranslates two Arabic options, and may intermittently fail compositor CI on loaded runners.

Gate machine-dependent absolute timing limits.

the_follow_cost_is_bounded runs in ordinary compositor CI. Scheduler contention can raise the measured late or camera average above 1 ms, even with best-of-7 sampling. Keep the relative late versus early assertion as the required complexity check, but run the absolute limits only when an opt-in benchmark variable is set. Keep the measurements available as diagnostics.

Proposed fix

if std::env::var_os("OPENSCREEN_CAMERA_BENCH").is_some() {
    assert!(late < std::time::Duration::from_millis(1), "{late:?}");
    assert!(camera < std::time::Duration::from_millis(1), "{camera:?}");
}

Allow a blocked click impact to be cleared.

If clickImpact is enabled and the user removes the rotation or hides the cursor, the prerequisite update preserves clickImpact while blocker becomes non-null. The controlled checkbox is then disabled, so the user cannot clear the stored effect.

Keep the checkbox enabled when it is checked:

Proposed fix

-	const disabled = blocker !== null;
+	const disabled = blocker !== null && !checked;

📝 Committable suggestion

‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.

Use rotation wording for the left and right camera presets.

مستديرة means “rounded”. It does not describe a screen turned left or right. Use wording such as مدارة إلى اليسار and مدارة إلى اليمين.

Proposed wording

-			"left": "الشاشة مستديرة لليسار",
-			"right": "الشاشة مستديرة لليمين",
