Re-record the manual under the scene-referred pipeline
D19 changed how every raw photograph renders, so every picture was stale; all forty are recorded again from this tree. Beside the ones already in the page there is now one for Tone Mapping: an alpine frame whose clouds sit near white, its White Point raised to bring them back and lowered for a brighter picture, its Contrast raised, then Before. The panorama film unticks the first frame and ticks it back, so the Frames list and the re-solve show; it no longer films minutes of "Reading the frames", cutting from the first seconds of the job to the alignment. The manual's presets menu opens beside the rail, not beside the photograph.
