 # Changelog
 
+## 0.11.0
+
+**Performance**
+
+- **A piece with many layers builds in a fraction of the time.** Every layer now builds its animation in a small timeline of its own, which is added to its parent once finished. Adding thousands of tweens one by one to a single GSAP timeline made GSAP re-measure the whole timeline at every add, so the cost grew with the square of the count: the 700-layer `hanabi-night` took 3.2 s to build with two 1.3–1.6 s freezes of the page, and now takes 0.5 s with none above 170 ms. Positions stay absolute, so every frame is the same.
+- **A shared loader.** `pixi-effects/loader.css` (shipped as `dist/loader.css`) and one line of HTML, `<div class="pe-loader" data-label="LOADING"></div>` next to the canvas: a ring, `--pulse` (a breathing dot) or `--bar` (a sweeping line), or `--custom` for a drawing of your own, restyled with `--pe-loader-color` / `-bg` / `-track` / `-size`. It is HTML and CSS, so it is on screen before any script runs, and it animates only `transform` and `opacity`, which the browser runs off the main thread, so it keeps moving while the page builds the piece. `movie.init()` finds it, fades it out when the movie is ready and, if init fails, stops it and says so (`init({ loader })` names another element or turns it off). Every gallery piece has one (`hanabi-night` has a rocket of its own on the shared frame), `ai/template.html` has one, and the guide's player page says how to use it.
+
+**Changed**
+
+- The gallery pieces `orbit-rig` and `shape-shift` were redesigned as pieces first and feature showcases second: an orrery plate in ivory and brass ("Orrery") and a Bauhaus poster in motion ("Form Follows"). Same ids, so existing links keep working.
+
+**Added**
+
+- A gallery piece that uses particles and motion blur (`hanabi-night`: a fireworks festival title card, 36 pieces now), with its demo in the guide.
+- **Motion blur.** `movie.init({ motionBlur: true })` (or a sample count, or `{ samples, shutter }`, or the same option on one `render()`, `snapshot()` or `contactSheet()`) exposes every frame over a shutter interval: the frame is drawn several times at moments around its time and averaged, so fast motion smears like on film. It applies to what is made (the export, snapshots, contact sheets, so `pixi-effects-check` shows what the file will have), not to live playback. `pixi-effects-render --motion-blur 8 --shutter 0.5` sets it for one file.
+- **`particles()`**: bursts, fountains, snow, confetti and sparks as plain layers. Every particle has its own seeded start, launch angle and speed, size, colour and life, and a path baked into keyframes (gravity, wind, drag, sway), so playback, seeking and export agree. `emit` spreads births over time, `fade` / `scale` shape the life, `shape` is `circle` / `rect` / `star` or any `template` layer, `blendMode: 'add'` makes overlaps glow.
+
+**Fixed**
+
+- **The last frame of an export was empty.** The final frame sits at the exact end of the movie, where every layer's lifespan has just closed, so a layer that lasts to the end vanished in it (the exported video, and the last cell of a contact sheet, ended on a blank frame). That frame is now drawn a hair before the end, so the final composition stays on screen.

-1. **Start from `template.html`** (copy it; it loads the library from a CDN, collects every console warning into `window.__logs`, and exposes `window.movie`). One HTML file, plain JS. Default canvas 1280×720 @ 30 fps.
+1. **Start from `template.html`** (copy it; it also has the shared loader (`<div class="pe-loader" data-label="LOADING">` + `pixi-effects/loader.css`: HTML and CSS only, animating just `transform` / `opacity`, so it keeps moving while the page builds the video; `movie.init()` fades it out). Keep it; a loader of your own is fine (`pe-loader--custom`) as long as it only animates `transform` / `opacity`, never with JavaScript or `requestAnimationFrame`; it loads the library from a CDN, collects every console warning into `window.__logs`, and exposes `window.movie`). One HTML file, plain JS. Default canvas 1280×720 @ 30 fps.
 2. **Give the movie a poster time.** In `movie.init` add `poster: <seconds>`: the most striking moment (a title fully on screen, not the first frame, which is often black). The canvas shows that picture before play (the playhead stays at 0 and play starts from 0), and the check writes it as `poster.jpg`.
 3. **Write the composition as data.** Anything repeated (letters, bars, particles, scenes) is a JS function or loop that returns specs — never copy-paste objects. Derive coordinates and times from constants/data, not magic numbers.
 4. **Show the human:** `node ai/tools/view.mjs my-video.html` opens their browser on the page with a scrubbable, zoomable timeline under it (click / drag to seek, + / − or Ctrl/⌘ + wheel to zoom) (`npx pixi-effects-view …` in an installed package); it keeps running until Ctrl-C. **Deliver the file:** `node ai/tools/render.mjs my-video.html -o my-video.mp4` (`npx pixi-effects-render …` in an installed package) renders the page headless to mp4 / webm / mov / mkv and exits 0 only when the file is written; run it AFTER the check below passes. **Run the check — one command does steps 3, 4 and the export:** `node ai/tools/check.mjs my-video.html` (Node ≥ 22 and Chrome installed; no npm install; in an installed package it is `npx pixi-effects-check my-video.html`). It starts its own private Chrome (nothing is shared with other sessions), waits for `window.__ready`, and writes `timeline.html` (every layer as a bar on a time axis: ◆ keyframes, shaded transitions; hand it to the human to open) and prints: console warnings, `movie.inspect` over the WHOLE timeline (grouped), `movie.inspectAudio()`, then exports an mp4 and decodes it again (video size and length, audio length, loudness per second, silence). It writes `check-out/<name>/sheet.png` — **open that picture and look at it** — plus the mp4 and `report.json`. Exit 0 = nothing to fix; exit 1 = a list of problems; fix them and run it again. Text that overlaps text is listed under `review` (not a failure: ghost layers, glow copies and per-letter boxes are often intentional; look at the sheet; `--strict` makes them fail).

    - `movie.inspectAudio()` → **hear with numbers**: for every sound its `start`, `sound.length`, `sound.peakDb`, `sound.loudestAt` (line this up with the picture) and `sound.brightnessHz` (< 500 dark, > 8000 airy), plus `issues` (limited mix, inaudible or cut-off sounds).

Sheet tiles are small (~480 px): use `snapshot` for detail. `inspect` output is long on busy scenes: pass `{ layers: 'none' }` and read `issues` first.

 - **Group / parent layers = `{ type: 'null', name: 'rig' }`** (draws nothing, only moves) + `parent: 'rig'` on the layers that should follow it: their `x`/`y` are then measured from the null's origin, and the null's position / rotation / scale / alpha carry them (orbits, clock hands, grouped fades). Nulls chain. Only `null` layers can be parents; not for `threeD` layers.

 46b. **Blend modes exist now** (`blendMode: 'add' | 'screen' | 'multiply'` on any layer, threeD layers and compositions included; a composition's children inherit it). Additive white cores no longer read grey on a coloured background. It also works on a layer with `filters` (a blurred glow with `add` / `multiply`): the mode is applied by the last filter, because a container's blend inside a filter pass multiplied against nothing and rendered black. With `add`, use dim saturated colours: overlaps sum, and near-white sums to pure white. *(fixed)*
 47. **Browser tooling: prefer `node ai/tools/check.mjs page.html`** — it runs its own private Chrome, so none of the following can bite. If you drive a browser by hand instead: the `agent-browser` daemon is shared, so a `contactSheet` can come back from another session: after saving an image, look at it and confirm it is YOUR piece. In zsh a variable holding `agent-browser --session x` is not split into words (use a small wrapper script). `inspect` now clips overlaps to the visible area, ignores the two scenes of a running transition, treats text inside a moving (panned) composition as moving, and does not report text scaled to 0 as "no size"; it still does not compare text with picture content or shapes.
 48. **A composition's `alpha` is applied to each child separately, not to the flattened group** (measured: two overlapping opaque circles in a composition at `alpha: 0.5` show the lower one through the upper one in the overlap). Fading a group that has overlapping children therefore shows the overlap; fade the children themselves, or keep overlapping parts out of the group.

+`particles()` returns one layer per particle: seeded start, launch angle and speed, size, colour and life, with gravity / wind / drag / sway baked into the keyframes. `count` and `life` are required, and so is the emitter `area` (its centre; add `width` / `height` to spread over a box). `emit: 0` is a burst, `emit: 3` spreads the births over 3 s. `angle`: 0 right, 90 down, −90 up. `blendMode: 'add'` makes overlaps glow. It throws (with the fix) if it would bake too many keyframes: lower `count`, `life` or `sampleRate`.
