+title: "Lens effects, renames & a detachable preview"
+description: "A new Lens category packs every camera-style effect — Blur, Motion Blur, Zoom, Pan, Shake, Pulse, Spin and a fully controllable Custom Zoom — plus clip and asset renaming, a preview that pops out into its own window, and an export that no longer dies when you close its window."
+summary: "Lens tab with 12 effects, standalone zoom/pan/shake/pulse/spin layers, Custom Zoom with start/end scale, clip & asset rename, pop-out preview, background exports."
+changes:
+  - type: new
+    text: "New Lens category in the assets panel. All camera-style effects in one place: Blur, Motion Blur, Zoom In/Out, Pan in four directions, Shake, Pulse, Spin, and Custom Zoom — each with a live preview thumbnail."
+  - type: new
+    text: "Zoom, Pan, Shake, Pulse, and Spin now work as standalone timeline elements. Drop one on its own track and it animates everything on the tracks below it — with adjustable intensity and easing, in preview and export alike."
+  - type: new
+    text: "Custom Zoom: pick the start and end scale yourself (25–400%) instead of relying on the fixed presets. Both values are keyframable when applied to a clip."
+  - type: new
+    text: "Motion Blur effect with amount and angle controls — a directional smear for speed ramps and whip movements."
+  - type: new
+    text: "Shake, Pulse, and Spin effects for handheld camera shake, beat-synced pumping, and full rotations."
+  - type: new
+    text: "Clips can be renamed. Right-click any clip on the timeline → Rename. Undoable, like any other edit."
+  - type: new
+    text: "Media assets can be renamed too. Right-click a file in the Media panel → Rename."
+  - type: new
+    text: "The preview can pop out into its own always-on-top window — one button in the preview toolbar detaches it, another docks it back. Closing the window re-docks automatically."
+  - type: fixed
+    text: "Closing the export window no longer aborts the export. It keeps running in the background and the file still downloads or saves when done."
+  - type: fixed
+    text: "The 'Open effects' button in the properties panel opened an empty page. It now opens the category that actually contains effects."
+  - type: improved
+    text: "The Captions and Adjustment tabs are gone from the assets panel — both were placeholders that were never used."
+  - type: technical
+    text: "Standalone motion effects are computed in the TypeScript frame descriptor (transforming the quads of everything below), so they work identically in preview and both export paths without any changes to the WebGPU compositor."
