Manim Studio 1.1.0

Added

  • Editable timeline — timeline edits are anchored patches stored in
    <scene>.studio.json; per-animation lanes, an editable block inspector,
    orphan tray, icon toolbar, block context menu, exact-duration entry,
    snapping (frames, 0.1 s, edges), zoom buttons/fit-selection, scrollbar,
    insert-wait-at-playhead, loop range and playback speed. Exports bake the
    edits in (--no-sidecar to skip).
  • Block highlight that follows the editor caret; Play from playhead.
  • Themes — Chalkboard theme and loadable JSON theme files; new editor
    header/toolbar, rounded popup menus and a regenerated app icon.
  • "Reload preview, discard frame cache" action; LaTeX caching.
  • Welcome starter scene.

Changed

  • Renamed the product from "Manim Editor" to Manim Studio: the import
    package is now manim_studio, the CLI is manim-studio, and the Windows
    org/bundle identity is ManimStudio.
  • Renamed the LaTeX override environment variable MANIM_EDITOR_LATEX_DIR to
    MANIM_STUDIO_LATEX_DIR.
  • Rendering performance: single-pass filmstrip crawl, filmstrip reuse across
    reloads and retimes, traced scene reused as the initial scene, preview
    frames scaled fast then settled smooth.
  • Preview protocol bumped to v4 (timeline patches).
  • Removed the render-preview scrub bar; block actions moved to the toolbar.

Fixed

  • A block with many animations no longer pushes the preview off screen.
  • Reliable play/pause, loop and review-speed behaviour (loop stops when turned
    off, pause stops a running loop, speed changes real wall-clock pace).
  • Later blocks stay reachable after a section is lengthened.
  • Selected code stays readable with a themed selection band.

Repository

  • LICENSE (MIT), CI workflow (format, lint, types, tests on Ubuntu +
    Windows), tagged release workflow, Dependabot config, community files and
    issue/PR templates.
