Figma holds a US registration for DEV MODE (7574348) and sent a cease-and-desist over the
term in 2025. The label becomes Developer Mode: the view.devMode command label, the Inspect
tab's name, the shortcut wording, the refusal toast and control-channel text, the board
refusal, the measurement parameter doc, the .fig export note, the CLI help and the README.
Identifiers, ids, preference keys and saved-document fields are unchanged, and the Actions
palette keeps "Dev Mode" as a search alias. Every catalog translates the new label, and the
translations that changed await native review.
naming_tests guards the labels and the catalogs; palette_tests covers the alias.
The scaled-instance round-trip test now asserts the scaled width and height instead of printing them. text_path read the layer's raw size, so a text on a path inside a scaled instance kept the main's path length; it now uses the scaled or fitted size.

- A nested instance's override and derived rows (and its text property values) are written in the enclosing main's space: OverrideRow carries the factor of the layer that supplied it and View::with takes (row, scale) pairs. Test: a_nested_instances_own_rows_are_at_its_enclosing_mains_scale.
- Progressive blur startOffset and endOffset are unit-box fractions, not lengths: only offset and noiseSize scale. Test: a_progressive_blurs_positions_are_not_lengths.
- An effect or grid style takes the factor of the layer that links it (1 when an instance row swaps it), not the main's. Test: an_effect_style_takes_the_scale_of_the_layer_that_links_it.

An instance scaled with the Scale tool in Figma stores `symbolData.uniformScaleFactor`; the importer never read it, so the layers of a 128 px instance of a 256 px component came in at 256 px with the main's radii, strokes and spacing. Layers of an instance now take the main's lengths times the factor (composed through nested instances), the same values the Scale tool scales, unless an override or derived row gives the value, which is already at the instance's scale. Eight tests: the reproducer, the round trip, a derived size row not scaled twice, override rows, auto layout gap/padding/text, nested composition, factor 1 or none, and junk factors ignored.
