+- Preview and bundled scripts run where and when the author put them ([16871a179687](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/16871a1796876cf3f263081d85cec647cb7b6eeb), [#5014](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5014)).
+- **Studio:** The motion path draws on every load, not only when the layer's node is the frame's own ([b45818f69d55](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/b45818f69d55da3f8b5817a41c09f0e0384cc3b1), [#4957](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/4957)).

+- **Studio:** The edit bench checks the keyframe rule outside a range and for new property groups ([00553e685cfd](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/commit/00553e685cfd63c0f585ad1782a256be65cfa76e), [#5011](https://github.com/heygen-com/hyperframes/pull/5011)).
