* feat(studio): add Layers panel as new inspector tab

Adds a dedicated Layers tab alongside Design and Renders in the right
panel inspector. The panel shows the full composition element tree with
collapsible hierarchy — clicking a layer selects it without navigating
away from the tree view.

Closes #783

* feat(studio): add visual element previews to Layers panel

Each layer row now shows a small color/content preview thumbnail:
- Text elements show a snippet of their content in the actual font color
- Container elements show their background color as a colored swatch
- Image elements show a tiny thumbnail of the image
- Media elements show an icon indicator

* feat(studio): add hover-to-highlight and auto-seek to Layers panel

Replace tiny preview thumbnails with hover highlighting — hovering a
layer row highlights the element in the preview canvas. Clicking a layer
auto-seeks the playhead to that element's start time in the timeline.

* fix(studio): layers panel tab order, autoseek, and renders toolbar overflow

- Reorder inspector tabs to Design → Layers → Renders
- Fix autoseek: walk DOM ancestors when selected element has no direct
  timeline match, so clicking a child like S2 Heading correctly seeks
  to the start of its parent scene
- Fix Renders toolbar overflow: add flex-wrap to the export controls
  header so selects and the Export button wrap instead of clipping

* fix(studio): seek to midpoint of element duration in layers panel autoseek

* fix(studio): layers panel seek now drives adapter.seek via requestSeek signal

setCurrentTime() only updated the store — adapter.seek() and liveTime.notify()
were never called so the iframe never moved. Add requestedSeekTime to the player
store; useTimelinePlayer subscribes and calls the real seek() path when it fires.

* feat(studio): hover over a layer auto-seeks to element midpoint (300ms debounce)

* feat(studio): add collapsible sections to Design panel

Section component now supports collapse/expand with a chevron toggle.
Text, Layout, and Fill sections stay expanded by default. Less-used
sections (Flex, Radius, Stroke, Effects, Clip, Transparency) start
collapsed to reduce scrolling.

* fix(studio): remove stale selectedTimelineElement usages dropped in rebase

* fix(studio): stabilize resetErrors in useConsoleErrorCapture to break render loop

resetErrors was a new function object on every render. handlePreviewIframeRef
had it as a dep, so it also changed every render. NLELayout's useEffect watching
onIframeRef would re-fire, calling setPreviewIframe again, which re-ran
useConsoleErrorCapture with the new iframe — infinite loop.

@hyperframes/studio

Browser-based composition editor UI for Hyperframes. Provides a visual timeline, code editor, and live preview for building video compositions.

npm install @hyperframes/studio

What it does

The studio is a React application with:

  • Visual timeline — drag, resize, and arrange elements on tracks
  • Code editor — edit HTML and GSAP scripts with CodeMirror (syntax highlighting, autocomplete)

  • Composition inspector — view and modify element properties

Development

The studio is embedded in the hyperframes preview command. To develop the studio UI itself:

cd packages/studio
bun run dev        # Start Vite dev server
bun run build      # Build for production
bun run typecheck  # Type-check
