The stock model rendered correctly and nothing could ask for it. This is
the picker, and the sidecar key that makes the choice outlive the session.
How the choice persists was the open question, and the answer was already
written down twice in sidecar.rs: `rating` is a top-level key "because a
rating is not an edit", and `masks` are one "because a layer is not a
scalar". A stock is that kind of thing -- a choice of material, not a
number a slider moves -- so it is a top-level key too.
It stores the **id**, not an index. Stocks are files that users add, so an
index would mean installing a profile silently changed which film every
existing photograph had been developed on. A name this build has no
profile for still round-trips untouched, because the alternative is that
syncing to an older phone quietly un-develops the picture.
Only the names travel. Turning one back into tables needs the profile
database, which dr-pipeline deliberately does not link, so `Version::apply`
clears the film and the session re-bakes -- after the parameters, because
the bake reads the film's own exposure sliders and the print balance is
solved against them. That is also why moving those sliders rebuilds the
lookup where no other control in the panel does: an enlarger's filtration
depends on how the negative was exposed.
The panel keeps its rule. It still names no operation and still generates
every control from a declared parameter kind; the stock gets a bespoke
control beside those, exactly as the mask stack does, and for the same
reason. The film's exposure and print exposure arrive as ordinary
generated sliders.
Two defaults worth stating. Picking a colour negative prints it, because
an unprinted one is an orange strip and offering that as the first thing
somebody sees after choosing Portra reads as a bug rather than as a
choice -- the toggle is there for anyone who wants the scan. And a paste
carries no film: a preset is a parameter map, and a stock is not a
parameter, so pasting one would paste a choice the clipboard never took.

The stock model landed in dr-film with no way to see it. This is the
pipeline node, the two texture bindings it reads, and the end-to-end test
that proves the shader agrees with the model.
The design point is that a film simulation is not an adjustment. Every
other node changes a picture; this one makes it. A stock's characteristic
curve does the camera profile's base curve's job -- from measurements
rather than from a curve somebody drew -- so running both renders the
scene twice: the camera's rendering, and then a film's rendering of that.
It looks like neither, and it reads as a colour-management bug with no
colour-management bug to find.
So `Operation::renders` is new. A node declaring it takes camera RGB and
hands back linear sRGB, and the composer emits neither the base curve nor
the conversion out of camera space. Both halves move together, and the
composer keeps them as one string precisely so that getting half of it
right is impossible.
The tables are not parameters, for the reason vignetting's coefficients
are not: they are measurements. dr-pipeline declares the layout as a plain
struct and keeps its no-dependency property; the two crates share no types
on purpose. `EditGraph::set_film_tables` offers them to every node rather
than to the one that wants them, because knowing which concrete type is
which is what the graph is organised not to know.
Bindings 4 and 5 follow the masks precedent: declared unconditionally so
one bind group layout serves every generated shader, bound to 1x1
placeholders when no stock is loaded. Both are interpolated by hand with
textureLoad -- this pipeline binds no sampler, and adding one for two
lookups would cost a binding in every shader. Uploads are keyed on content
so an unchanged stock does not push half a megabyte across the bus per
frame.
The end-to-end test earned its place immediately: it found the density
lookup being filled z-fastest while a 3D texture upload wants x-fastest,
so the red and blue axes were transposed. Green matched exactly, which is
what that bug looks like -- a plausible photograph of the wrong colour,
and one that every unit test on either side of the seam passes. dr-film
now pins the layout in a test that needs no device, and states it where
the field is declared.
