[UI/UX Inquiry] Dynamic active-state highlighting for asset chips bound to Start/End frames in GoogleFlow?

Body: Environment:

  • Platform: Google Flow (labs.google/fx/tools/flow)

  • Account Tier: Google AI Pro / Ultra (Paid)

  • Model: Gemini Omni Flash / Veo 3.1

Technical Inquiry: I am engineering a highly controlled image-to-video sequence requiring exact geometry preservation. While building the prompt payload, I observed an undocumented UI behavior regarding asset chips.

When multiple assets are loaded into the prompt bar (e.g., character references and environmental base layers), and I explicitly bind one of those assets to the “Start” frame box, the corresponding asset chip in the text field shifts from a transparent outline to a solid, highlighted background.

Questions:

  1. Is this solid highlight the official, intended UI confirmation that this specific asset is actively prioritized as Frame 0 for the render calculation?

  2. If multiple character or image chips are in the prompt bar, does a lack of a solid highlight confirm they are functioning strictly as reference weights rather than structural anchors?

I require this mathematical certainty to ensure my environmental exclusions and physics blocks are locked properly before executing the render. Attached is a screenshot demonstrating the UI state.
