iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 1512d8418b Make the frame a length of the window and the box a region
There is one coordinate unit, the window. Every box in the tree is a
region in window units and a widget's frame is a length in the same
units, which is only what fractions resolve against, so the box need not
be the frame and padding can take from both without either becoming the
other. A region node's entry is a translation -- a rel 1 region anchored
where its box starts -- rather than a box, so nothing composes a frame
back up a chain and a node that moves is one entry write.

Padding is then an inset of both: its pixels come off the frame, so
rel(1.0) under it fills the padded widget rather than overflowing it,
and off the box, so what is drawn sits inside. A length a container
decides for a child's frame is a length of the window like everything
else here -- a row's slot, padding's frame less its pixels, or the box a
stack's sizing child decided, which arrives as Part::Sized -- because a
slot of a row is not a fraction of anything the row can name, the same
reason a node entry is a translation. A declaration is a fraction of
whichever of those reached it, and is the only one that also places the
box.

Frame validity is a pin beside the box's, not a range: a range of window
pixels cannot say which frame an answer is a fraction of, since two
frames are different lengths at the same window size. A widget pins its
frame by reading it or by being answered with it under a fractional
rule, and the pin composes up wherever a length of this frame is what
reached the child.

Also here, because the diagnosis needed them: the shrinker reports the
shrunk tree's own divergence with each level's frame, ask, box and size
warm against cold, and there is a size-resize case -- a change and then a
resize, the order that shows an answer kept as a fraction of the wrong
length, which every other case compares at the window it was made at.

Three defects the reports found, each pinned: a rule changed over two
pads relocated the column under them instead of dividing it again (seed
59, depth 5, resize-size), a share inside padding had the padding taken
off twice, and a root resolved its own rule twice.

fmt and clippy clean with and without layout-diagnostics, 121 suite, 20
core, 11 generated, the 400-seed depth-5 shrinker over all sixteen cases.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 98d4e98a29 Describe a tree before building it, so a failing seed can be reduced
The oracle grew its trees from a seed and the shrinker grew its own, with
every scenario written out on each side. So a failure the oracle found could
not be handed to the shrinker: there was no tree to pass it, only a seed, and
a seed cannot be made smaller. The shrinker could only grow its own trees and
hope to meet the same shape, which it does not -- 20,000 of its trees never
reproduced what the oracle's seed 18 shows at depth 6.

`iris::random` now answers with a `Plan`: `plan(seed, depth, &edits)` draws one
out of the random stream and `build(rsc, &plan)` makes the widgets, where
`grow` did both at once. Every draw happens in the order it always has, so a
seed still means the tree it meant -- checked by running the oracle at 1000
seeds of depth 6 before and after and getting the same three failures with the
same boxes. `Plan::smaller` reduces one, `Plan::edited` applies an `Edits` to a
tree that already exists, and `tests/scenario/` holds the fifteen cases both
rigs now run over the same trees.

A span keeps the order it holds its children in apart from the children
themselves, so detaching, attaching and reordering leave the widgets made in
the same order and two builds still line up index for index. `Tree::detached`
is gone: `Spanned::spares` is everything made for a span that it does not
hold, which is what both of those were.

`tests/cases/plan.rs` pins the three properties the rest rests on: editing a
plan is growing one with those edits, every simplification is smaller than
what it came from, and reducing ends. The second caught this change's own
defect, where dropping a side of a `Branch` duplicated another and grew the
tree by four widgets.

What it found, on its first run: `SHRINK_SEED=18 SHRINK_DEPTH=6
SHRINK_CASE=repaint-some` reduces 277 widgets to 5. A scroll inside a scroll,
the inner one owning a movable region, and only the text at the bottom marked
for redraw -- and the span lands 24px out, which is exactly the sized child's
height. `git bisect` names `95fb4f9`, where `Masked` began reporting its box
rather than its inner's size, so what the outer scroll is told its content
measures now depends on whether the inner subtree was redrawn this frame.
`tests/cases/unsettled.rs` has it written out, ignored until it is fixed.

Checked: fmt, clippy over all targets with -D warnings, the workspace tests
(79 + 11 + 15, one ignored for the defect above), and the 100-seed oracle over
all fifteen cases at depth 4. The shrinker at 400 seeds of depth 5 now fails,
which it did not before running the oracle's trees and cases: seeds 2 and 288
on region-node and 174 and 175 on repaint-some are unreduced leads.

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 bdab55824f Take two roundings out of where a box comes from
Traced what was left of the warm-against-cold difference after fixed point.
It is not accumulation and not one place: it is the same box reached two
ways, and each way rounds where the other does not.

`Scroll` was writing a box it had been given back out as its own length in
pixels. That is the same box in another form, and centring a part in `rel 1`
lands a step from centring it in `px 900`, because halving a difference is
not halving each part of it. Content that fills the viewport and has not been
scrolled is now handed back as it came, which makes the shrinker's `repaint`
and `resize-repaint` cases agree exactly rather than within a step.

`Span` placed each child a step from where the last one ended, so the
rounding of every share was carried along the row. A position is now the
fixed parts before it -- a sum, exact -- plus one rounded share of the room.
Measured: two hundred equal shares of a 1000 px row ended at 999.999 and now
end at 1000, and `tests/cases/layout.rs` pins it at 2, 3, 7, 64 and 200.

What is left is a step per level of nesting between the two ways, which is
what the fuzzers now allow: four of the five shrinker cases pass at one step
and the fifth is five spans deep. Closing it needs one way of asking where a
box is, which is a bigger change than this.

Checked: fmt, clippy, 103 tests, all five shrinker cases at 300 seeds, 100
generated seeds, five examples byte-identical at 1920x1200.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 9d8415d65f Delete OrthoSize, and run the seeds in parallel
A span is as long across itself as its longest child, unless a rule beside it
already says how long it is -- and then reading the children answers nothing
and only makes its size depend on theirs. `OrthoSize::Full` was that second
case written twice, once as an enum on the span and once as the rule that
actually decides; `Painter::ruled` lets the span ask which it is in. The
widget under a rule still does not learn what the rule says, only that its
answer for that axis is not wanted.

The fuzzers grow, lay out and drop a tree within one seed, so the seeds share
nothing and take a thread each, one short of every core. Measured here: the
generated oracle's hundred seeds went from 68 s to 10 s, and a shrinker case
at 300 seeds from 18 s to 3.5 s. A seed that fails still shrinks and panics
on its own thread, and `std::thread::scope` carries that out.

The shrinker now allows the two steps the oracle already did -- the deeper
trees these grow reach a second composition, and a step is a thousandth of a
pixel.

Checked: fmt, clippy, 102 tests, all five shrinker cases at 300 seeds, 100
generated seeds, and five examples 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-ai d3b0ebf90c Make alignment a widget property 2026-09-15 23:12:16 -04:00
iris-ai 8220a78d4a Carry a length as a rule beside a widget, not a widget around it
`.width()` built a `SetSize` whose whole job was to answer `size_hint`, so
every declared length cost a widget, an `ActiveData` and a link of chain to
say one number. It is now a `SizeRule` per axis on `WidgetData`, beside
`region_node`, resolved by `Painter` where the widget is drawn. `SetSize`
and `MaxSize` are gone; `MaxSize` had no caller but its own builders.

That settles which of two answers is the size. A rule wins on the axis it
names and the `Size` returned by `draw` answers the rest, applied once in
`draw_inner` rather than by each widget that could carry one -- so the
widget under a rule never learns of it. `Painter::size_hint` reads the rule
first for the same reason: a rule that beats what a widget would draw has
to beat what it says about itself.

`declared_lens` still falls back to a non-leftover `size_hint`, which is
how an image or a gap gets its own pixel size rather than the whole offer.
That is the offer's business rather than a declaration's, and it falls away
when a widget occupies its reported size inside the box it was offered.

`known` and `declared` are separate because a share is a length to whoever
divides one and not to whoever composes a box: `.width(leftover(3))` is
known without drawing but cannot narrow anything.

Checked: fmt, clippy, 85 tests, and 100 generated seeds agreeing warm
against cold in 67.6 s. `minimal`, `text` and `view` render byte-identical
at 1920x1200; `tabs` differs only in the widget count it prints about
itself, which is two wrapper types smaller.

iris-ai f437495309 Add explicit orthogonal span sizing 2026-09-15 16:40:09 -04:00
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 65f68bbb8a Reorder a span's children in the fuzzer, and find two fixed points
The shrinking fuzzer had no case for what `generated.rs` calls a reshuffle,
which was the only thing still failing there. `Case::Reorder` rotates every
span's children after a warm frame and compares against a tree grown that
way -- which needs a span's creation order kept apart from the order its
children are attached in, or the two trees make the same widgets in
different orders and cannot be lined up.

It found a four-widget tree, from 486, and the trace says the layout has
more than one answer rather than one answer reached twice.

    Aligned(mid, -, Span[ Text(wrap), OneLine ])

A span measures its children in its own box. Its own box is what its parent
gave it, from the size it reported, from those children. So with the
wrapping text second it is offered `cursor..end` of a span 663.376 wide and
asked for 357.44, which is what it already holds -- the size is valid, the
span reports 663.376 again, and nothing moves. Grown in that order from
scratch the span is offered the window, the text is asked for 334.06 and
answers 318.45, and the span settles at 624.38. Both are stable. Which one
you get depends on what the tree was before.

So this is not a stale drawing kept too long, and no rule about when to
keep one will fix it: it is a circular dependency with two solutions.
`Painter::settle` in `Aligned` -- place into the child's own size without
measuring there -- makes all four cases in `unsettled.rs` pass and breaks
two in `generated.rs`, whether or not the child is drawn first. Not kept;
the shape of the fix is the constraint a container measures under being
something it is given rather than something it ends up with.

iris-aiandClaude Opus 5 b7caab3b9e Grow trees that can be taken apart, and find that a first frame is wrong
Reconstructing a generated failure by hand had failed three times: a seed
reproduces a tree of hundreds of widgets, and the printed chain is not
enough to see which part matters. `tests/shrink.rs` grows trees from a
description it can simplify -- drop a child, unwrap a wrapper, shorten a
text, drop a declared length -- and takes the first simplification that
still fails until none does. It lives in the tests; nothing in the library
knows about it.

It works: with the box-length check in `try_reuse` deliberately disabled
it reduced a 96-widget tree to 2. That check is worth keeping, because a
fuzzer that cannot fail is a fuzzer that agrees with everything.

What it found is not what any of this was looking for. Six widgets, shrunk
from 402:

    Span[ Stack[ Text("Wrapping"), Aligned(pos,pos,
          SetSize(x: 76px, Text("Wrapping shapes", wrap))) ] ]

The wrapping text is one line on the first frame and two after a repaint,
and two is right for a 76px box -- so the *cold* tree is the one that has
not settled. `generated.rs` has been comparing a warm frame against a cold
one and calling the difference a retained-layout defect, while at least
some of it is the first frame shaping a text at a width it was measured in
rather than the one it was given. Retained state is not involved.

`tests/unsettled.rs` is that case by hand, in 0.06s. Both of its tests
fail, so both are ignored with the reason rather than left to break the
build.
