dtourolle 5e863fa718 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.

dtourolle 81ea9359bc Re-record the manual for 0.18.2
Every scene, recorded from this commit's desktop build. Since the last
recording (0.17.0) contrast flattens toward grey, a mask layer's
settings apply as offsets, and the film's settings are per-pixel, which
touch the develop, film, local and preset pictures; `--changed` could
not be trusted after the rebases, so nothing was left out.

Checked frame by frame: the film list still reaches Ilford HP5 Plus by
wheel, drag, scrollbar and keys (film_reach), and each picture shows
what its caption says. Settings shows version 0.18.1, the build's own
until the release commit bumps it.

dtourolle 7428f6f845 Re-record the manual for 0.17.0, with albums and the new preset sheet
Every scene is recorded again on the 0.17.0 build, because the header
(Export to Exports), the sidebar (Albums) and the develop column had
all moved. The launch pictures showed the typed folder field, and the
export settings "Export to"; the presets picture predated the sections.

New scenes: presets_film scrolls the sheet down through the shipped
sections and applies Ilford HP5 Plus, a look that changes the film and
nothing else; albums exports four New York frames to an album, selects
it to show the originals behind its files, and opens a new album's
sheet before deleting what it made. record.sh now points the profile's
old export folder at DR_HOME/Exports, which the app turns into the
album "Exports" on first open - the one way to have an album without
the portal's dialogue, which Xvfb cannot show. The launch scene signs
out of a remembered folder instead of typing one, so it shows
"Open folder" beside the folder used last.

Not recorded: the server browser's New folder, which needs a Nextcloud
server, and the download screen, which a folder library never reaches
(the original is a local read, over before the first poll). The manual
says so where it describes each. film_reach and duplicates passed;
inference was pinned to the CPU.

dtourolle 048d48f532 Re-record the manual on the 0.16.0 interface
Every scene was recorded again on a release build of this commit with
the automation feature. Master changed what nearly every picture shows
after they were taken: scrollbars on the develop column, the grid, the
sidebar and Settings; a "?" beside Settings in develop's top bar, with
its controls regrouped; the Film row opening its list as a popup.

The film scene pressed the list's rows through the develop column, which
no longer holds them: the list is a popup, and the automation hook
reports its contents relative to it. The scene now opens it with
film_list_open, turns the wheel down it and back so the popup and its
scrollbar are seen scrolling, and clicks Velvia at its popup position
plus the popup's origin. The caption says so. film_reach passed in the
same run: the last stock was reached by the wheel, a drag, the scrollbar
and the keys.

Looked at as contact sheets of each GIF's middle and last frames and
each PNG. launch, launch-folder, library-nesting.png and
library-collection-menu came out byte-identical after optipng and are
unchanged. develop-zoom's deepest frames are smooth on Xvfb as before;
its caption does not claim blocks. Settings shows version 0.15.0,
the build's own, until the release commit bumps it.

dtourolle f0e7b8e11c Re-record the manual on the keyboard layout, and stop the zoom caption promising blocks
Every scene was recorded again on a build of this branch rebased onto the
keyboard work and TD-1, since nearly every scene depends on files those
changed: the develop top bar now carries a star strip and Pick/Reject, the
roll shows flags and stars, and the grid's selection bar gains Label and
Flag. `--changed` could not be trusted to find them, because the rebase
made each picture's commit newer than the sources it was recorded from.

The develop-zoom caption said the wheel goes on "until the pixels are
blocks". On Xvfb the deepest frames come out smooth even though the app
draws past 1:1 nearest-neighbour on a real display (confirmed by eye on
the desktop), and a GIF shrunk to 960 wide could not show 3-pixel blocks
anyway. The caption now says what the clip shows; the prose above it,
which describes what the app does, stays.

dtourolle f426bb903a Picture this round's features in the manual
Four scenes, recorded and looked at frame by frame:
- library-labels: 6, 7, 8 and 9 over four New York frames, 7 again to
  take one off, then the Green chip narrowing the grid and back.
- compose-perspective: two towers shot from below, stood upright with
  Vertical at about +58, then held against Before.
- crop-orphan: a stroke in the top-left corner, a crop that leaves it
  outside, the notice with Undo crop and Keep crop, and Undo crop.
- local-intersect: a linear gradient over the lower half, then
  Intersect and two strokes that survive only where it is.

develop-zoom already ends on hard-edged pixels (previous commit). The
text added is a sentence or two under the existing headings, so the
other branch's structure and anchors are left alone.
