Record the manual's scenes by name, and each against what it depends on
scenes.py aimed every press at window pixels, and the develop column had already moved under it: Compose now sits above Adjust, so the old exposure coordinate lands on a straighten slider. Every scene now names what it presses by its accessible label through the automation hook, places points on the photograph relative to the canvas, and opens its photographs by file name. Each starts from a known place and undoes what it did, so one can be recorded alone; the few that continue another's state name it, and running one runs that first into a scratch folder. Each scene also declares the pictures it makes and the sources they depend on. `record.sh --check` fails when the manual shows a picture no scene makes, or a scene makes one it does not show; it reads two files. `record.sh --changed` re-records the scenes whose sources, or own code, changed since the commit that last touched their pictures. record.sh builds with the automation feature, restores the library from DR_LIBRARY_SNAPSHOT, starts from a fresh profile and pins inference to the CPU; the launch screen is recorded from an empty profile of its own. Re-recorded with the ported scenes, and looked at frame by frame. What differs from the pictures they replace: - develop, presets, settings, local, compose, film, wb, light: the current develop column (Compose with Vertical and Horizontal above Adjust, the Label button), otherwise the same moments. - library pictures: the filter bar's colour-label chips; no collection left over from an earlier run in the sidebar; library-selection is the twelve alpine frames rather than eight of them and four New York ones. - library-rating rates two frames nobody had rated, so the stars are set and not cleared. - develop-zoom goes on past 1:1 with the wheel and ends on the file's pixels as hard-edged blocks. - repair covers a real mark on the road, with a size that fits it; film is shown on the Chinatown frame instead of the road. - panorama tries Perspective, Spherical and Cylindrical before filling. - launch, launch-folder and panorama-aligned came out byte-identical.

# tools/manual — the pictures in docs/manual
|
||||
|
||||
`record.sh <library>` drives the desktop build on a private X server and
|
||||
records every scene in `scenes.py` into `docs/manual/media/`. `drive.py` is
|
||||
the puppeteer underneath — launch, click, drag, type, screenshot, record —
|
||||
and is usable on its own to look at a panel after changing it:
|
||||
`record.sh` drives the desktop build on a private X server and records the
|
||||
scenes in `scenes.py` into `docs/manual/media/`:
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
DR_HOME=/var/tmp/x tools/manual/drive.py launch /some/folder
|
||||
tools/manual/drive.py click 1543 22 # Settings
|
||||
tools/manual/drive.py shot /tmp/settings.png
|
||||
tools/manual/record.sh /var/tmp/dr-demo/library # every scene
|
||||
tools/manual/record.sh /var/tmp/dr-demo/library develop_zoom # one, and what it needs
|
||||
tools/manual/record.sh --changed /var/tmp/dr-demo/library # those whose sources moved
|
||||
tools/manual/record.sh --check # the manual and the scenes agree
|
||||
tools/manual/record.sh --list
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Set `DR_LIBRARY_SNAPSHOT` to a pristine copy of the library: a recording
|
||||
rates, files and merges, and the snapshot is copied over the library first.
|
||||
Each run starts from a fresh profile under `DR_HOME`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Controls by name
|
||||
|
||||
The binary is built with `--features automation`, which lets the app answer
|
||||
"where is the control labelled *Exposure*?" over the Unix socket named by
|
||||
`DR_AUTOMATION` (`ui/dr-ui/src/automation.rs`). No other build has the
|
||||
feature, and a build that has it listens only when the variable is set. The
|
||||
names are the accessible labels a screen reader reads, so a scene says
|
||||
`click_on('Select@Button')` or `slide('Exposure', 24)` rather than a pixel,
|
||||
and survives a panel that moves. The pointer itself is still xdotool.
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
DR_HOME=/var/tmp/x tools/manual/drive.py launch /some/folder # a feature build in DR_BIN
|
||||
tools/manual/drive.py labels # every name on screen
|
||||
tools/manual/drive.py click-on 'Settings@Button'
|
||||
tools/manual/drive.py ids canvas # things with no name: id:canvas-image
|
||||
tools/manual/drive.py stop
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
The demo library is the author's: seventy frames with no people in them,
|
||||
the `fixtures/pano` set among them. The scenes' cell coordinates are for
|
||||
that grid, at 1600×1100; the panel coordinates hold for any library.
|
||||
Grid cells are named by file (`_MG_8393@ListItem`), rating stars `1 star`
|
||||
to `5 stars`. What a scene cannot name — a point on the photograph, the crop
|
||||
rectangle's corner — it places relative to something it can
|
||||
(`drive.photo(fx, fy)`, `id:move-area`).
|
||||
|
||||
## Scenes and the manual
|
||||
|
||||
Each scene in `scenes.py` declares the pictures it makes, as the manual names
|
||||
them, and the globs of the sources that could change them. `--check` fails
|
||||
when the manual shows a picture no scene makes, or a scene makes one the
|
||||
manual does not show; it reads two files and runs in CI. `--changed`
|
||||
re-records a scene when one of its sources, or its own code, has changed
|
||||
since the commit that last touched its pictures.
|
||||
|
||||
Two things the scripts know that are not obvious: a Slint `TouchArea` wants
|
||||
a held press, not xdotool's `click`; and the app is driven on Xvfb rather
