# Changelog

## 2025-09-19 - 1.2.0 - feat(wcc-properties)
Add advanced property editors, recursive element detection, demo wrapper, UI refresh and test fixtures

- Advanced JSON property editor: multiple side-by-side editors with save/cancel, syntax validation and inline error display; editors affect frame layout (frame bottom increases when editors open).
- Improved properties panel element detection: recursive search through nested children and shadow DOM, initial delay and retry mechanism to handle async Lit rendering.
- Add dees-demowrapper component in ts_demotools to run post-render callbacks and support async demo setup and DOM access for demos.
- UI refresh with shadcn-like styles: CSS variables for theming, redesigned properties panel and sidebar, improved form controls, theme and viewport selectors.
- Viewport and frame improvements: responsive padding based on viewport type, theme-aware background rendering, and scroll position tracking with URL/state restoration for frame and sidebar.
- Add test fixtures and demo elements/pages under test/ to exercise properties, complex types, nested elements and scroll restoration; include node test for resolveTemplateFactory.
- Expose setupWccTools entry point and plugin wiring (wcctools.plugins exports for dees-domtools and smartdelay) for easier integration.
