`Catalog::open` runs the backfill every time, and every worker thread
opens its own catalog: the develop view does it to fetch each original and
again for each neighbour it prefetches, and the sync, sweep, burst and
thumbnail workers each do it too. On the reference library (24k images)
an open cost 26 ms of CPU, and most of it was `pair_raw_and_jpeg` reading
all 17,000 RAWs into a map of lowercased stems to find partners for the
1,900 JPEGs that have none -- the same 1,900 on every open.
It now starts from the small side. The unpaired JPEGs are read first, and
it stops there if there are none; otherwise it reads the RAWs in the
folders those JPEGs sit in (plus the unfiled ones when an unfiled JPEG is
waiting), which is 142 on the reference library. A pair is same-folder by
definition, so no pairing is lost; the RAWs are read in id order, so where
two share a stem the later one still wins as it did in the table scan; and
a pass with nothing to pair no longer opens and commits an empty write
transaction.
catalog_bench, best of 20, CPU: `Catalog::open` 26 ms -> 12 ms together
with the next commit (the backfill 24 ms -> 11 ms; this step is ~10 ms of
that). A test covers pairs found among other folders and unfiled images.
Every sync pass exports this device's faces to the shard store and imports
what peers sent, and both walked the whole library asking the store's index
about one image at a time: the export 19,000 `indexed_at` lookups (one per
face marker), the import 23,000 `held_model` lookups (one per image with a
server id), each a statement prepared and run against the index. With
nothing new either way -- the usual pass -- that was all they did.
Measured with catalog_bench against copies of the reference catalog and
face store, best of 5, CPU:
export_to_shards (steady) 119 ms -> 27 ms
import_from_shards (steady) 250 ms -> 87 ms
Each now reads the index in one statement into a map. The import's query
is `held_model`'s, ordered the same way, keeping the first row per file,
and nothing in the loop changes which pipeline a file is held under
(`set_indexed_at` touches only a file already decided; candidates are
distinct files). The export's `put_image_at` does rewrite entries -- but
only its own file's, its generation and the siblings it supersedes -- so a
file already written in this pass is asked of the store again, and every
other answer is the one the lookup would have given. An index that cannot
be read gives an empty map, which is what each failed lookup returned.
The store index and the catalog are identical after the old and new
builds' runs.
A sync pass that brought nothing new cost 450-540 ms of CPU in
`merge_remote_catalog` on the reference library (24k images, 19k faces),
measured by catalog_bench merging a copy of the catalog with itself.
Most of it was the loop over the other device's confirmed faces and the
faces under its ignored groups -- 13,000 rows. For each one it prepared
three statements from scratch (`query_row`/`execute` with a SQL string
compile the statement every call) and then rewrote the `face_person` row
with the values it already held, dirtying a page per face on every pass.
The rejection loop prepared three more per row.
The statements are now `prepare_cached`, the local assignment is read once
per face (whether it is confirmed, and what it holds, come from the same
row), and the upsert is skipped when the row already says exactly that.
`faces_assigned` is still counted for those rows, so the report is the one
the old code gave, and nothing else reads the difference: the row is
byte-for-byte what the upsert would have written.
After: 279 ms (best of 5, CPU), with every catalog table identical after
the run to the old build's.
Two benches for reading side by side before and after a change, against a
copy of a real catalog, in the manner of identity_bench:
- `dr-catalog --example catalog_bench CATALOG [FACES_DIR]` times
`Catalog::open` and the backfill inside it step by step, the upload
snapshot, a merge of the catalog with a copy of itself, and the face
shard export and import in the steady state where nothing is new.
- `persist_bench`, an ignored test in dr-ui's scan module because
`persist` and `apply_judgement` are private to it, replays the
catalog's own rows through `persist` (the largest folder, and the whole
library) and looks up every `.drsc` sidecar the catalog has read. It
works on a scratch copy and prints a fingerprint of what `persist` left,
so two builds can be shown to agree.
Both print best, median and CPU time; the CPU figure is the one to compare
while other builds share the machine.
Every TextRow drew a field and a hint but no name: "Filename template"
and "Destination" on the settings page and in the export sheet, the two
storage budgets, the export size fields. The label was there, painted
behind the entry, with a clipped "ws" of "Thumbnails and previews"
poking out beside the thumbnail field.
The field sits in a Rectangle so the row can dim it and watch it lose
focus, and that Rectangle took its height from `field.preferred-height`.
`Field` sets its own `height` outright and has no layout inside it, so
its preferred height is zero. The box was zero tall, the row around it
took its height from the unit label beside it, and the field, centred
on an empty box, sat half its own height above the row, on top of the
FieldRow. Segmented never showed it because its chips live in a layout
that reports a real height.
Reading `field.height` instead gives the box the height the field
actually draws at, so the row reserves it and the label sits above. The
note on `Field.label` that recorded the fault now records the trap.
"On desktop the develop view draws the compute pass's texture directly"
was the README's way of marking Android as the exception. Since TD-1 was
paid off in 0.15.0 the tablet draws the same texture, so the sentence
now names both.
"Where it stands" still named TD-1 as the one deliberate compromise worth
knowing about: the Android develop view reading its frame back through the
CPU because wgpu's swapchain tore in portrait. 0.15.0 paid that off — the
swapchain is pre-rotated and the frame reaches the compositor as a texture,
as on desktop, and architecture.md §6.1 now reads "No exceptions since
0.15.0". The release commit updated the version line above and left this
paragraph describing a state the release had just ended.
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.
The rebase combined this branch's README additions with master's, and
index.html is generated from the README; manual-check passes on the
regenerated page.
The traceability job now runs `tools/manual/record.sh --check`: every
picture docs/manual/README.md shows must be made by a scene in
tools/manual/scenes.py, and every picture a scene makes must be shown.
It reads the two files and nothing else, so it needs no app, display or
LFS pull.
--changed now dates a scene by the newest commit among its pictures
rather than each picture alone. A scene that also makes a picture which
re-records byte for byte (panorama-aligned beside panorama.gif) no
longer stays listed for ever. A scene all of whose pictures come out
identical (launch) stays listed until one differs, which costs one
harmless re-run.
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.
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.
Every scene in tools/manual aimed at window pixels written in by hand, so
a panel that gained a row moved every slider under it and the recording
went on dragging where the slider used to be. The develop column has
already moved that way (Compose now sits above Adjust), and nothing said.
A build with the `automation` feature listens on the Unix socket named
by DR_AUTOMATION and answers where an element is: by its accessible
label, the name a screen reader reads, or by its markup id for the few
things that are not controls (the canvas, the crop rectangle). It uses
Slint's element queries, which need the compiler's debug tables, so the
feature also turns those on in build.rs. It only answers questions; the
input is still xdotool's real pointer. No default build has the feature,
and one that has it listens only when the variable is set.
drive.py gains click-on, drag-on, hold-on, wait-for, wait-gone, labels
and ids. The grid's cells are now named by their file, each rating star
by its value, the sidebar's + as "New collection", and the Adjust
heading's reset as "Reset all adjustments" - controls a screen reader
could not reach before either.
The pre-rotation patches landed in the previous four commits. This
records how the debt was paid, by a fourth route its own list missed:
patching wgpu-hal and Slint's Skia surface locally rather than waiting
for either upstream. It also updates architecture.md §1 and §6.1, which
still said Android draws with OpenGL behind a readback.
The verification is stated as what it was: the user found the
release-signed build clean on the tablet in portrait. No dumpsys
composition or bufferTransform readings were taken, because adb would
not hold the device that morning, and no frame times were measured.
With Skia drawing pre-rotated on wgpu's Vulkan swapchain, Android no
longer needs to draw with Skia over OpenGL, which was the only reason
the develop view read its frame back through memory (TD-1).
So `unstable-wgpu-29` moves back to the common slint dependency. The
android-activity backend then builds `SkiaRenderer::default_wgpu_29`,
and `shared_gpu` loses its Android arm. The one wgpu device is handed to
Slint through `BackendSelector::require_wgpu_29` on both platforms.
`slint::android::init_with_event_listener` runs before `dr_ui::run`, so
the selector reaches the Android adapter before its window exists.
`renderer-femtovg-wgpu` stays desktop-only, since Android has no FemtoVG.
The two `#[cfg(target_os = "android")]` readbacks in `develop::render`
(the frame through `export_pixels` and the focus overlay through
`read_overlay`) are gone. `read_overlay` stays for the tests that check
what the overlay marks.
Built for arm64 and release-signed. Not yet run on the tablet.
The other half of the wgpu-hal patch: that one lets a caller promise a
pre-rotated swapchain, and this is the caller keeping the promise.
On configure, `WGPUSurface` reads the surface's `currentTransform`,
sizes the swapchain in the panel's orientation (swapped for a quarter
turn), tells wgpu-hal to use that transform, and before each frame
concatenates the matching rotation onto the Skia canvas. Everything
Slint draws goes through that one matrix, so an imported wgpu texture is
rotated with the rest of the window. Input is not rotated, and must not
be, because Android delivers it in window coordinates.
Three details that would each have been a visible bug:
- `resize_event` compared the new size against the swapchain's. The
swapchain is transposed while a quarter turn is in effect, so the
comparison now uses the window's size, kept beside it.
- A half turn, landscape to reverse landscape, changes the transform
without resizing the window, and wgpu-hal hides the SUBOPTIMAL that
would report it. So the transform is re-read before every frame. That
costs one query into the native window.
- The item renderer snapped the origin to the pixel grid only when the
canvas matrix was a pure translation. Under a rotation that is never
true, so portrait would have lost pixel alignment everywhere. The check
now accepts right-angle rotations and flips without scaling.
The direction of each rotation follows the Vulkan spec's reading of
preTransform (the image is drawn already rotated clockwise by the
transform). It has not been confirmed on the device yet.
wgpu-hal creates every swapchain with `preTransform = IDENTITY` (#3345).
On a tablet whose panel is mounted landscape, a portrait window then
hands Android an unrotated buffer: SurfaceFlinger falls back to rotating
it on the GPU (composition CLIENT), and on this device those frames tear.
That is why Android draws with Skia over OpenGL today, and why the
develop view pays a readback (TD-1).
The field cannot just be set to `currentTransform` inside wgpu. It is a
promise that the image is already drawn rotated and sized in the panel's
orientation, and only the renderer above wgpu can keep it. So the patch
is the smallest thing that lets that renderer ask:
`vulkan::Surface::current_transform` reads the surface's transform, and
`set_pre_transform` makes the next swapchain use it. The default stays
IDENTITY, so desktop and any caller that does not opt in behave exactly
as upstream.
The Android develop view reads its frame back through memory (TD-1)
because wgpu's Vulkan swapchain never pre-rotates, and a portrait window
on this tablet's landscape panel then tears. The fix is a small patch to
each of these two crates, and this commit is only the ground it lands on:
both are byte-for-byte the crates.io sources the lockfile already
resolved, so the commits that follow are the patch and nothing else.
third_party/ is excluded from the workspace, or every path dependency
under the root would become a member and `--workspace` would test and
lint upstream code as ours. The README says how to carry the patches
across a Slint or wgpu bump, which matters because a stale version here
does not fail the build — cargo just warns and uses the unpatched crate.
FR-DEV-16's promise that the gesture book cannot describe a binding the
application lacks is now enforced by the gestures gate in both directions,
and every binding it names is bound and tagged, so it is marked met, with
what develop answers beyond the list.
FR-UI-5 is not met in full: its keyboard half and the 2026-09-19 amendment
are, but no develop slider takes the scroll wheel, so its status says that
rather than rounding up.
FR-UI-5's 2026-09-19 amendment asks for the rating and flag wherever they
can be set and on the roll's cells, so that stepping along a set in develop
shows what has been judged. The roll drew thumbnails only, so the keys that
now judge the open photograph left no trace on its neighbours.
Each roll cell carries a small badge with a tick or a cross and a star
count, drawn only when there is something to show, in shapes and a number
rather than colours (NFR-A11Y-3).
F1 opens the help sheet from the grid, and nothing on the keyboard closed
it: Escape fell through to the shell, and every other key went on judging,
labelling and keywording the photographs hidden behind the sheet.
Escape and Back now close the sheet first, ahead of the grid's other
sheets, since it is drawn over all of them. While it is open the grid's
handler declines every other key, so a stray P or Ctrl+K changes nothing
the reader cannot see.
An audit of every action by view against the keys the handlers bind left
develop without zoom, pan, fit or a way back to the grid, the grid without
select-none, thumbnail size or keywording, People with no key at all, and
the export and copy sheets without Enter. It also found the reverse gap
FR-UI-5 forbids: pick and reject had no route but P, X and U, and the
2026-09-19 amendment's judging in develop had not been built.
Develop: Ctrl+= and Ctrl+Plus zoom in and Ctrl+- out about the middle of the
view, Ctrl+0 fits and Ctrl+1 goes to 1:1, Shift and an arrow pan a magnified
view, G goes back to the grid, Ctrl+Y redoes, and Enter keeps a crop that hid
a mask. 0-5, P, X and U rate and flag the open photograph without moving on,
with stars and Pick/Reject in the top bar as the pointer and touch route.
= and - nudge the control last moved by a hundredth of its travel; the
framing sliders, perspective included, now count as "last moved", so R puts
them back as well. J turns the selected mask part's join chip.
Grid: Ctrl+D and Ctrl+Shift+A clear the selection, = and - resize the
thumbnails, Ctrl+K opens keywording, and Flag in the selection bar gives
pick and reject a pointer and touch route. Sidebar: Enter commits a
collection's name, and Enter or Escape hands the keyboard back to the grid,
where it used to go nowhere until something was clicked. People: Up and Down
walk the rail, F2 puts the name field under the keys, and Escape or Back now
leave the screen the way its back button does instead of doing nothing.
Sheets: Enter does what the export or copy sheet's button does.
The choices follow Lightroom where it has one. No new key steals typing: the
grid's and People's keys live on focus holders that are not ancestors of any
text field, and the sheets' Enter comes after a focused field has had it.
Every binding is tagged beside its handler, and the gate added in the
previous commit holds the two to each other.
The gesture book is generated from GESTURE tags, so it could not describe a
gesture nobody tagged, but nothing made anyone tag one. The arrow keys, Enter,
P, X, U, Delete, F1 and F2 all worked in the grid with no line in the help
sheet, and a tag could name a key whose handler had gone.
Key handlers now compare one canonical string, Keys.chord(event) == "Ctrl+Z",
instead of reading event.text and the modifiers themselves. keys.slint folds
the key and its modifiers into that spelling, so the literal in the handler is
the whole binding and the checker reads exactly what the handler dispatches
on. Each handler carries a KEYMAP comment naming the gesture-book section its
keys belong to, and a tag's keys field names its keys between backticks.
gestures-check now fails when a handler binds a key no tag in that section
names, when a tag names a key no handler there binds, when any .slint file
other than keys.slint reads event.text, when a compared literal is not
canonical, and when keys.slint's named keys drift from the Rust list.
Spellings are normalised in one place, chord.rs: Ctrl+z, Control+Z and
LeftArrow all mean what the handler's "Ctrl+Z" and "Left" mean. Shift and Alt
count only for letters and named keys, because on the French layout every
digit needs shift and a 6 has to be a 6 however it was typed.
A Rust keymap that both dispatched and was read by the generator was the
alternative. It would have moved the handlers' decisions away from the Slint
state they depend on, and a window that forgot to install it would have had
no working keys at all.
The keys that were already bound and undocumented are now tagged.
The sheet could now offer "See it", but no gesture said where to look.
Every GESTURE tag whose move the manual describes names that section:
the white-balance picker, zoom and pan, masks, undo and snapshots,
export, colour labels and ratings, selection, collections, the People
page, thumbnail size. Fifty of the fifty-one; the one left, putting a
single control back to its default, has no section and is too small to
earn one.
Three important gestures had nowhere to land, so the manual gains three
short sections, without pictures for now: Bursts (opening a folded
burst, choosing the frame it shows, and the eyes-open filter), Moving
between photographs (the roll, the arrows and A/D in develop) and
Copying settings (Copy, Paste, Paste to N, and choosing what a copy
carries). The page, the gesture book and docs/gestures.md are
regenerated from them.
The help sheet says which move does a thing, and the manual has a
picture of the thing being done, but nothing joined the two: a user
reading "Pinch it with two fingers" had no way from there to the GIF of
it.
A GESTURE tag takes an optional `manual:` field naming a heading of
docs/manual/README.md by its anchor. The scan checks every one against
the anchors the bundled page is rendered with and fails when the manual
has no such heading, so renaming a section cannot leave the sheet
linking to the top of the page; gestures-check carries the same failure
into CI. The anchor goes into gesture_book.rs as a new field, and into
docs/gestures.md as a "See it" link to manual/README.md#anchor. The help
sheet draws a "See it" button beside the title of each gesture that has
one, which opens the bundled manual at that section.
The field is additive: a tag without it is unchanged, and no gesture
carries one yet.
The packages now carry the manual, but nothing in the application opened
it: the help sheet listed gestures and stopped there.
The help sheet gains a Manual button beside Done, and Settings a Manual
row under About beside the version. Both go through dr_ui::manual, which
finds the installed page through dr_plat::system_data_dirs (the package's
share directory on Linux, the executable's directory on Windows), and a
development build also in the checkout it was compiled from. A copy with
no manual says so on the status line rather than doing nothing.
On the desktop the page goes to the system browser. A section is a URL
fragment, and xdg-open's generic mode and Windows' FileProtocolHandler
both turn a file: URL into a path and drop the fragment, so a section is
opened through a one-line redirect page written to the data directory:
the opener gets a plain path, which every opener keeps, and the browser
follows the redirect to index.html#section itself. The launcher behind
the sign-in's open_in_browser is split out so both share it; the https
check stays with the sign-in.
Android has no path to give a browser: an asset is not a file, a copy in
private storage is unreadable to other apps, a file: URI across apps is
refused, and a content: URI leaves the browser resolving every picture
against the provider. So ManualActivity, a WebView reading
file:///android_asset/manual/index.html straight out of the APK, shows
it, started by class name with the section as an extra. JavaScript is
off, links off the page go to the browser, and the theme is day-night so
the page's own light and dark follow the system. A test checks that the
manifest, the Java class and dr_ui agree on the name and the extra.
The rendered manual was in the repository and nowhere else, so an
installed application still had nothing to open.
Each packager now carries docs/manual/index.html and its pictures, to
where the application will look for them: /usr/share/darkroom/manual on
Arch, manual\ beside darkroom.exe on Windows (where the models already
are, and where dr_plat::system_data_dirs points), and assets/manual in
the APK, stored rather than deflated since a GIF or PNG is already
compressed. The manual is about 27 MB, which the APK and the installer
both grow by; the pictures are 1600x1100 screenshots and short GIFs,
and against an APK that already carries 170 MB of inference runtime and
70 MB of models they are not worth re-encoding for.
The pictures are LFS objects, so each packager refuses a pointer where a
picture should be, as it already does for the models: shipped, a pointer
is a manual of broken images that nothing reports. The Android and
Windows CI legs therefore fetch docs/manual/media, which they excluded
while nothing they built read it, and the installer smoke test checks
that the page and every picture were installed.
The manual existed only as docs/manual/README.md, which the forge renders
and nothing else does. An installed copy of the application, on a laptop
with no network or on a tablet, had no manual it could open.
`traces manual` renders the README to docs/manual/index.html with
pulldown-cmark (already in the tree as Slint's Markdown parser, so this
adds a dependency edge and no crate). The page is one file with an inline
stylesheet that follows the system's light or dark preference, a
contents list of every section and subsection, and the pictures by their
relative media/ paths. Each heading carries the id the forge gives it, so
README.md#rating-and-flagging and index.html#rating-and-flagging are the
same link. A picture alone in its paragraph becomes a figure whose alt
text is shown as the caption, and every picture reserves its 16:11 box
before it loads, so a jump into the middle of the page lands where it
aimed rather than a screenful above. Links to design documents, which the
installed page has no copy of, point at the forge.
The page is committed rather than rendered at build time, as the gesture
book is: it is user-facing text reviewed in the diff, and the three
packagers then only copy it. `traces manual-check` fails in CI when the
committed page is not the render of the README, and the pre-commit hook
regenerates it when the README is staged.
docs/gestures.md on master carried 162 lines of <<<<<<< / ======= / >>>>>>>
from 4642c77, ade627a, c3d1f83 and 46f5b95. Their branches were rebased
onto each other, the generated files conflicted, and the resolution
regenerated the requirements matrix with `traceability -- report` and then
staged gestures.md as it stood, on the assumption that the same command
writes it. It does not: the gesture book has its own `gestures` mode. The
source tags were never in conflict, so nothing is lost; this is the file
regenerated from them, and `gestures-check` passes on it.
The keystone existed in framing but nothing in develop could reach it:
framing is presented by its own Compose panel rather than generated, so
new framing parameters get no control until the panel names them.
Compose now has Vertical and Horizontal sliders under Straighten,
mirrored from the session like the angle, recorded as parameter steps
("Vertical Perspective" in the history), cleared by the Compose reset
and by opening the next photograph. Releasing either slider refits the
crop the way releasing the straighten slider does: a keystone alone
needs no crop, but it moves the empty corners of a straightened frame,
so the crop that avoided them before may not after, or may have room
to grow back.
There was no perspective transform anywhere in the pipeline: framing
offered a ±45° straighten, quarter turns and flips, and a building shot
looking up kept its leaning walls.
Framing gains a vertical and a horizontal keystone (-100..100). They are
parameters of framing rather than a new stage, so they carry its Compose
attribute, persist in the sidecar under framing, and are withheld from a
default paste exactly as the crop is. In the prologue the keystone runs
after the crop and the straightening and before the stored orientation
and the lens warp, so "vertical" is the photograph's displayed height and
the lens still sees its whole frame.
The map takes the output frame onto a trapezoid inside the source, built
as a homography from four corners and uploaded as three columns in the
framing uniform block (which grows from two vec4s to five). A keystone on
its own therefore never exposes an empty corner and leaves any crop valid.
Combined with a straightening angle the empty area is a pulled-back
quadrilateral the closed-form inscribed rectangle cannot describe, so
max_inscribed_crop searches for the largest centred rectangle whose
corners all have a source pixel behind them. source_at and output_at
apply the same map, so masks, gradients and spot handles follow it.
Issue #13 asks for a vertical and horizontal keystone, and its number was
renumbered from FR-DEV-19 when the spec gave that to mask editing. The
clause was never written into the register, so the work had nothing to
trace to.
It is written as part of framing: after the crop and the straightening,
before the stored orientation and the lens warp, carrying framing's
Compose attribute, and with the inscribed crop accounting for it.
The pre-commit hook left the matrix as it stood on two of the commits before this one, so it named neither the new test file's NFR-A11Y-3 tag nor the line numbers the label code moved. Regenerated from the tree as it now is.
The manual's library section described rating and flagging only, and
the outstanding register still said colour labels were "set and shown
nowhere" and that three NFR-A11Y-3 clauses had no test. Both are now
untrue: the manual gives the keys, the Label button and the chips, and
the register names the test file and what it can and cannot vouch for.
NFR-A11Y-3 was argued in comments beside the rating strip, the
pick/reject mark and the focus-peaking chips, and nothing would have
failed if an edit made a set star differ from an unset one only in tint.
Only the clipping readout had a test.
These read the markup, as the accessibility-name tests do, since a
rendered window cannot be asked what a colour-blind reader sees. The
star and the flag must choose their glyph from their state, and the
glyphs they choose must be different drawings in icons.slint. The peaking
chips must be distinct words that reach the screen as text. Each colour
label must carry its own letter and the name the catalog's code stands
for, the mark must draw the letter, and the grid cell, the filter chips
and develop must draw the mark or the name. Breaking any of these by
hand makes the matching test fail.
Colour labels could be read from a Lightroom sidecar and queried by the
selector, but nothing drew one or set one, so the only labels a library
held were ones another program had written.
Every mark carries its label's initial on its colour — R, Y, G, B, P —
so a label is read without telling red from green, which is what
NFR-A11Y-3 asks of colour labels by name. A grid cell shows the mark
before its filename. In the grid, 6, 7, 8 and 9 set red, yellow, green and
blue as Lightroom's keys do, on the photograph under the pointer or on
the selection by the rule the star keys follow; the same key again takes
the label off, and over a mixed selection it sets it on all. The
selection bar gains Label, which opens the six choices — each a mark and
a name — and purple, which has no key, is there. In develop the top bar
says "Label: Green" beside the mark, opens the same choices, and 6-9
label the open photograph.
Each gesture is one catalog transaction, then the grid, the counts and
both sidecars are written as a rating's are. The filter bar gains a chip
per label, its mark and its name with a count, one at a time; the filter
is one SQL term, travels in the place record, and "All" clears it.
A rating and a flag are written to DarkRoom's sidecar as well as the
catalog, because the catalog is a disposable index and the sidecar is
how a judgement reaches the photographer's other devices. A label had no
place there, so once labels could be set, one would have lived only in
the catalog of the device it was set on and gone with it.
The sidecar version now carries `label` (0 none, 1-5 as the catalog
codes it), written only when set. It merges under the rating's rule, so a
device that never labelled a frame cannot clear another device's label,
and a code this build does not know reads as none rather than as some
other colour. A judgement write carries the catalog's label with the
stars, and the scan takes a sidecar's label into the catalog when it has
one. An older build keeps the line as an unknown key and writes it back.
Colour labels reached `versions.label` only from an XMP sidecar: nothing
in the catalog could set one, clear one, or read it back alongside the
stars, so there was nothing for an interface to call.
`set_label` and `set_label_many` write it the way ratings are written,
the bulk form in one transaction so a key over a selection is one commit.
`toggled_label` holds Lightroom's rule for a label key: it clears only
when every image already carries that label, and otherwise sets it on all
of them, so a half-red selection comes out red rather than inverted.
`Judgement` carries the label, so the grid's one window query brings it
with the stars, and `label_histogram` counts each label in one grouped
statement for the filter chips. A label does not make a frame "judged":
it is a pile of the photographer's own, not a cull decision.
The doc comment for `default_version_id` had been stranded above
`label_code` when that was inserted; it is back on its function.
When a gesture stopped, the half-resolution draft was replaced by the
full-resolution frame in one step, a visible jump from soft to sharp.
FR-DSP-4 asks for a refinement that is smooth, not a jarring swap.
The canvas now keeps the last draft frame (`canvas-previous`) and draws
it over the sharp one, fading it out over 150 ms when the draft flag
clears. The fade costs no render: the draft is a refcount on the texture
it was drawn into, and the adjust pass ping-pongs between two output
targets, so the sharp frame is written into the other one. While a
gesture is drafting the layer is hidden and snapped opaque, so a new
drag shows its draft at once; past the fade it is hidden again, and a
settled canvas composites one image as before.
The histogram is measured on settled frames only, so during a drag it
describes the frame from before the gesture while the canvas shows
something newer, and nothing said so. The draft flag stopped at the
render closure.
It now reaches the interface: `canvas-draft` on the window and
`Levels.provisional` for the readouts, both set on every canvas render
from the flag that chose the frame's resolution, and cleared when a
render fails. The histogram panel dims its display reading to half
while a draft is up and brings it back when the frame settles. Dimmed
rather than captioned, because a caption appearing on every drag would
move the column; the raw reading has no frame to lag and is left alone.
During any drag longer than 120 ms the canvas rendered a full-resolution
frame every 128 ms under the finger. The settle timer was armed by the
first draft of a burst and not re-armed by later ones, so it counted from
the start of the gesture rather than from its last movement, fired
mid-drag, and the next coalesced event armed it again. Each of those
frames is the most expensive one the canvas draws, landing where the
frame budget is tightest.
The draft/sharp decision now lives in `refine::Refine`, apart from the
timers that carry it out. Every draft frame arms a settle timer carrying
a generation token and only the newest token is honoured, so the sharp
frame lands SETTLE_DELAY after the last movement. A request arriving
while a settle is still owed also counts as part of the gesture, so a
slow stretch of a drag (one event per frame, nothing to coalesce) no
longer renders sharp between drafts. A timer that fires with a render
already posted defers to it.
The tests drive the state machine through simulated timelines; the
long-drag case reproduced the four mid-drag sharp frames before the fix.
Cropping tighter past a mask layer made it invisible without a word:
the layer stayed in the panel and the sidecar, and its adjustment went
on landing on pixels nobody would see again.
When a crop is let go, develop now measures what the gesture did to the
mask stack (dr_pipeline::orphan) and, if any layer is now entirely or
mostly outside the frame, shows a notice over the photograph: how many
layers, their names, "Undo crop" and "Keep crop". The crop is already
applied and nothing waits on the answer.
The crop overlay gains a release callback carrying the rect the press
began from, so the measurement runs once per gesture and never on the
drag's per-frame changes. Choosing a ratio is measured the same way,
being a crop committed in one click.
"Undo crop" is the ordinary undo, and the notice is tied to the history
revision it was raised at: the redraw that follows any history move
clears it, so the crop and its warning go back as one step. A second
drag folded into the same step is measured from where that step began.
A crop that strands nothing shows nothing.
Mask geometry is stored in source coordinates, so re-cropping tighter
never destroys a layer. It makes it invisible: the layer stays in the
panel and the sidecar, its adjustment lands on pixels nobody will see,
and nothing says so. The spec had no clause for this; FR-DEV-17 now
states it, under the ID issue #10 reserved.
dr_pipeline::orphan samples each layer's mask on a 64x64 lattice over
the source, with the gradient, radial, brush and model-raster geometry
the mask shader uses, folds the parts by their joins and inversions, and
maps the samples through the framing to see how much of the coverage
the crop keeps. `hidden_by_crop` reports the layers whose share fell
below a tenth, and only those the change newly hid, so an already
stranded layer is not announced again on every later adjustment.
Ranges follow the picture and region selections need a label map this
crate does not hold, so a layer that adds either is never reported: a
false alarm on the common path would teach the notice to be dismissed
unread.
FR-RAW-2's "without changing callers" needs a test that would fail if a
caller named the concrete decoder; passing a real RAW through rawler
cannot tell the two apart, because both routes give the same answer.
The decoder_seam tests hand a stub decoder, for a container no real
decoder reads, to the catalog scan (read_metadata_only over a folder
backend), the preview ladder (the remote two-stage fetch, an import's
thumbnail and the viewer's no-GPU fallback) and export (open_for_export,
skipped without an adapter). Each assertion is on something only the
stub produces: its camera and date, a header fetched at its 64-byte
budget rather than HEADER_BYTES, preview and sensor sizes turned by its
orientation. Switching collect_metadata or make_thumbnail back to the
free functions fails two of the three tests.
The develop test_support module is widened to the crate so the export
test shares the one headless GPU context the other tests use. The
requirements note for FR-RAW-2 now records the trait as built and the
second decoder as not.
With the trait in place the claim still meant nothing while every caller
named dr_decode's free functions: a second decoder would have had to be
threaded through the scan, the thumbnail ladder, import, the viewer,
export, merge and repairs at the moment it arrived.
Each of those now takes a &dyn Decoder and reads headers, previews,
orientation and sensor data through it, including the header budget a
remote fetch asks for (header_bytes) and where it finds the embedded
preview (locate_preview). Only the places that start a job name
dr_decode::default(): the thumbnail, sweep and thumbnail-sweep threads,
the viewer's open handlers, and the request structs a job is handed
(BatchRequest, MergeRequest, the import Request, the repairs Toolkit),
so a caller can be given another decoder by changing what it is handed.
The default is rawler through the same free functions as before, so
nothing a user sees changes. The trait gains Debug as a supertrait so
request structs that derive Debug can carry one.
FR-RAW-2 says a second decoder may be added for broader camera coverage
without changing callers, and D2 names LibRaw as that second decoder.
Nothing tested the claim: dr_decode was one decoder reached through free
functions, so adding another would have meant editing every caller at
the moment there was most pressure not to.
Decoder is an object-safe trait over bytes: header_bytes, metadata,
orientation, locate_preview, preview and decode. Rawler implements it by
delegating to the existing free functions, so behaviour is unchanged,
and dr_decode::default() hands it out as a &'static dyn Decoder, which
is what the places that start work will name. JPEG recognition, decoding
and completeness checks stay free functions: they are not a RAW
decoder's to vary.
Nothing in the trait takes a path or a SourceRef; the decoder states how
much of a file it needs and where its preview sits, and the caller's
storage fetches that.
FR-DEV-19a said a part is added to the mask or taken out of it, and
mask-editing.md listed Intersect as an M2 item with nothing built. Both
now say what shipped: the requirement names the third join and why it is
a product rather than a minimum, and how old and new sidecars read across
it; the plan marks the blend-table row built, names the tests that hold
the GPU to the definition, and splits M2 into what is done and what is
still outstanding (joining non-painted parts from the panel, per-part
distance fields, folding two layers).
The chained lookup in the_intersect_button_joins_a_part_that_intersects was
one line past rustfmt's width, so fmt --check failed on the branch. Split
as rustfmt wants it; no behaviour changes.
