Clipping, Effects Browser & Performance

February 1, 2026

✨ New

  • Effects Browser: New panel to browse and add effects to layers without hunting through dropdowns. Add blur, color adjustments, and other effects in a few clicks.
  • Clipping Support: Layers can now clip their children, with proper stencil-based rendering for clean masking.

🛠 Improvements

  • Better Blur: Rewrote blur effect using dual Kawase algorithm for higher quality and faster rendering.
  • Render Performance: Added scissor test optimization for clipping, reducing unnecessary pixel processing.
  • Effects Pipeline: Effects now support separate render passes for more complex compositing.
  • Asset Picker Component: New reusable asset picker component in the design system for consistent file selection across the app.
  • Cleaner Landing Page: Simplified CSS reduces page weight and improves load times.

🐛 Fixes

  • Fixed render order issues with effects and z-ordering
  • Fixed visibility handling for groups and their children
  • Fixed export rendering with proper frame overlay calculations
  • Fixed effect uniforms not duplicating correctly when copying layers
  • Fixed inspector layout issues in the effects panel
