iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 55df32a33c Say layout's operations by name, and index a pair by its axis
Four rounds over the same idea: an expression that needed a comment to say
what it computed wanted to be a named operation.

The placement description is built by chaining off the value that says it.
`UiSpan::within_desc`/`shifted_desc` and `Len::as_desc` replace the
`PlaceDescAxis::` constructors, `PlaceDescAxis::axis` lifts one axis into a
pair with the whole box across it, and `PlaceDesc::per_axis` covers the case
where the two axes differ. `beside` is dropped: `from_axis` already said it.

Seven module-level functions become methods on the value each took first --
`Widgets::declared_lens`, `LayoutLen::fills`, `PlaceDesc::placement` and
`::rel_base_and_region`, `Size::within_box`, `UiRegion::at_origin` and
`::as_translation`.

`UiSpan::place` is the aligned-placement rule, which was written out three
times; `LayoutLen::without_leftover` is the sibling `apply_leftover` never
had, at six sites; `is_px` and `is_only_leftover` name field comparisons the
surrounding comments had to translate; `Holds::covers` was interval
containment spelled out by hand. A span's `shared` loses the two arguments
that did not vary across its loop.

`LayoutHolds` was four two-element arrays where every other pair here is a
struct of two per-axis values, so nothing it did could be written once.
It becomes `AxisHolds` on `x` and `y`, and `and`, `covers` and `contains`
lose their loops.

Every pair gets `Index<Axis>`/`IndexMut<Axis>` through one macro, and the
eighteen `axis`/`axis_mut` methods go. `const_index` keeps the accessors
usable in const context.

Cold layout is unchanged: `layout_dump` over 400 depth-5 trees is identical
to 58ce74d byte for byte, across all 34,492 boxes.

iris-aiandClaude Fable 5.1 5b7800264d Read a child's answer in the asker's frame, and drop the root move entry
A widget reports a fraction of the box it was given. Span added that
fraction straight into a cursor that counts fractions of the row, and Pad
summed its padding onto it, both right only while the offer had the
parent's whole extent -- which a span's does not after a relative child.
DrawResult::size and known_len now compose the answer through the offer's
length, so a container reads lengths of its own box.

That exposed placed_box scaling a fractional answer against a box the
parent had already chosen from it, halving a nested span twice. The
near-edge alignment override becomes per-axis `decided` flags: a box the
parent chose from the answer is the answer, and is not placed again.
Span decides the row axis; Scroll and Stack's sizing child decide both.
Alignment is always the widget's own property now.

The window is no longer a move entry. Chains bottom out in MoveIdx::NONE
and the window is applied where a fraction becomes pixels, in to_px on the
CPU and by the uniform in the shader, which now snaps the summed coordinate
since a floor does not distribute over a sum. A resize rewrites no entry.

Verified: view, minimal, random, tabs and text render byte-identical at
1920x1200 against 5f16617, a live resize to 1280x800 is identical to a
cold render, and the 100-seed oracle, all fifteen shrinker cases at 400
seeds of depth 5, and 1000 seeds of depth 6 pass.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 a8898aaa54 Give a length with no share in it its own type again
`UiScalar` was `Len` without the `leftover` weight, which is the separation
canonical `main` already had as `Len` beside `LayoutLen` and this branch
collapsed. It is needed back for the queued clamp: a cap may not contain a
share, because a cap has to read the report a rule otherwise makes moot, and
a share puts the container's division into the same equation -- two
self-consistent assignments, which is the multiple-fixed-point failure
generated seed 13 punished for orthogonal sizing. `min(report, cap)` is not
a `LayoutLen` either: it is a sum of parts, and the smaller of two of them
is not one.

So `UiScalar` is `Len`, what was `Len` is `LayoutLen`, and the two say in
their docs which is which: a `Len` is pixels plus a fraction of a box -- a
position being the length from the box's start, which is why a span is two
of them -- and a `LayoutLen` is a `Len` plus a claim only a container
dividing its room can answer. `From<Len> for LayoutLen` is the one-way step
between them.

Names only; the shader's `UiScalar` is renamed with them. Checked: fmt,
clippy, 105 tests, and `tabs`, `minimal`, `view`, `text` and `random`
byte-identical at 1920x1200.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 39e4ca20e6 Decide layout on the grid end to end, and delete the tolerance
`Px` and `PxVec2` reach the last places a pixel was a float: the window, the
box a widget reads, the box it is compared against, and `PixelRegion`. A
pointer, a wheel notch and a shaped glyph advance still arrive as floats,
and each is put on the grid where it arrives.

`Holds` is an interval of `Px`. `HOLDS_EPSILON_PX` is gone with the
`exact`/tolerant split it existed for: `at` is the length a widget read, an
open end is the next step along, and `same_px` is equality. `Span`'s margin
from `5ed9e87` goes too -- the box a parent hands back and the sum of what
its children asked for are counts of the same step, so the boundary decides
the same way from either side.

Three things had to be true for that, and were not:

`Holds::through` inverts `px + rel * box`, which rounds -- so a part of a
given length came from a range of boxes, and inverting the length alone gave
a point that need not contain the box the part was drawn in. It now maps the
half step either side, and one more for a length composed down the chain
against the same length measured against the window.

`RegionRemap` translates when a box only moved, rather than dividing to find
each part's fraction and multiplying to place it again. Two roundings landed
a step from where growing the tree that way does; a move is exact on a grid,
which is the whole reason `tests/drift.rs` was written.

A pixel is `1/1024` rather than `1/64`. At `1/64` the residue of a length
reached two ways was one step, and one step was 0.016 px -- enough to move
a box. `PX_SHIFT` and `REL_SHIFT` are the only statement of the grid now,
and the shader's copy is prepended from them rather than written twice.

Checked: fmt, clippy, 102 tests, 100 generated seeds in 75 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds, and `tabs`, `view`, `minimal`, `text` and
`random` byte-identical at 1920x1200.

What the fuzzers ask for is now a step, not a twentieth of a pixel: the
shrinker's five cases agree within one (`resize` exactly), and the oracle's
two-operation cases within two. The residue is a single rounding either way
-- it scales with the grid rather than accumulating, which is why it is a
thousandth of a pixel now. Closing it means one way of asking how long a box
is, rather than a chain composed down and a length measured against the
window; that is a bigger change than this one.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 bd6de71a55 Put lengths, padding, gaps and alignment on the grid too
`Len` is `Px` beside `Rel` beside `Weight`, so the seam `4e28f10` left in
`Span` -- a float length added to a fixed-point cursor -- is gone, and the
sum a span compares against its box is exact.

`Weight` is its own scale, `Fixed<16>`, because a share of what is left over
is not a fraction of anything: a list divides its room by the total of them,
so the range has to hold a whole list's worth while the precision only has to
tell two weights apart. `Rel::ratio` turns two weights into a share on the
finer grid, which is what a span needs and what dividing them on their own
grid would round away.

`AxisAlign` holds a `Rel` rather than a float, which is what the layout was
reading out of it anyway. `Padding` and `Span::gap` hold `Px`, converted
where they are built instead of on every frame. `RegionAlign::rel` is gone;
its one caller wanted a position, and now builds one.

`Fixed` gains `from_num` for a number as it is written in source, `mul_int`
for a length repeated a whole number of times, and `ratio`.

Checked: fmt, clippy, 101 tests, 100 generated seeds in 86 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds, and all five examples byte-identical at
1920x1200 against `4e28f10`.

With the fuzzer comparing for equality rather than within 0.05 px, four of
the five cases now pass 100 seeds -- `resize-repaint` joins the other three.
`reorder` still fails one seed by one step, so the last of it is in what a
box is measured *in*: `px_len` and the window are still floats.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 4e28f1047e Put positions on the grid, and decode them in the shader
`UiScalar` is `Rel` beside `Px` rather than two floats, so composing a
position down a chain of boxes adds exactly and rounds only at the two
multiplies `within` makes. `UiSpan`, `UiRegion` and `UiVec2` follow it, the
hand-written `Hash` goes away with the bits it hashed, and `impl_op!` grows a
`same` form for a type whose fields are not the same kind of number.

`Len` is still floats, so the seam converts: `Px::from_f32` where a span adds
a child's length to its cursor, and `to_f32` where something outside layout
wants pixels. Those go when `Len` follows.

The GPU reads what the CPU wrote: the instance attributes are `Sint32x2` and
the shader decodes by `1/64` and `1/2^24`, both exact in `f32`, then composes
the move chain in floats as before. It has to agree with itself frame to
frame rather than with the CPU to the last bit.

Two things fell out of making the numbers exact.

`floor` at the rasteriser was picking the pixel below wherever a fraction
divided a window exactly. A fifth of 1920 is 383.99998 through a rounded
`Rel` -- and was 384.0 through an `f32` that happened to round up -- so five
tabs each lost their last column. `snap_floor` takes a coordinate within half
a step of a boundary to be on it, which is the same rule as everywhere else
here: decide where values do not land.

A widget measured on one layer and drawn again on another kept the first
layer, because `try_reuse` compared everything about a retained drawing
except which list it sits in. `Stack` does exactly that for its background,
so every panel's text went under its own background. It only worked before
because the two asks differed by a rounding and forced a redraw;
`tests/retained.rs` pins it now, and `ReuseOutcome` can say `WrongLayer`.

Checked: fmt, clippy, 100 tests, 100 generated seeds in 70 s, all five
shrinker cases at 300 seeds. `tabs`, `view` and `minimal` render
byte-identical at 1920x1200; `random` differs in 36 pixels by one level;
`text` differs where glyph origins moved onto the grid -- same positions,
same spacing, different subpixel coverage, checked at 6x against the old
render.

Measured on the way: with the fuzzer comparing for *equality* rather than
within 0.05 px, `resize`, `repaint` and `size-change` already pass 100 seeds.
`reorder` fails one seed by exactly one step, which is the `Len` seam above.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 691e3eb23c Rename rest to leftover
The length kind that asks for a part of what is left once the fixed
lengths are taken is called leftover: Len::leftover(2), Len::LEFTOVER,
Size::LEFTOVER, Len::leftover the field, and apply_leftover. It says
what it is where "rest" reads as "the remainder of the list" as often as
"the remaining space", and every agent who has touched this has reached
for a third word for it.

Locals called rest that meant a region or a widget are renamed with it,
since the word now names something else.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 7c50a3e51b Rename a length's abs component to px
`dp` is coming, and then `abs` says which of the two it is not. The
component has always been a pixel count, so the name that admits it is
the one that leaves room for a second unit beside it.

Mechanical: the field on `Len` and `UiScalar`, their constructors,
`to_abs`/`get_abs`, the matching WGSL struct member and the locals
composing it. Field order and types are unchanged, so the `Pod` layout
the shader reads is the same bytes. `f32::abs` is untouched.
