The caption that names the relative x labels' anchor was an `Annotation`, whose anchor
is a data coordinate -- so it crawled across the plot under a pan and drifted under a
zoom, which is how it was reported. It is now `Plot::set_x_note()`: the bottom row's
caption, drawn by the renderer in the axes' bottom-left corner in pixels, on the
legend's own backplate.
The text stays the host's, because only the host knows that label + caption has to be
the exact absolute time (`%.6g`, where `format_time()` would round to three figures).

A `t0 = ...` caption appeared on every sub-second window, including a
triggered one whose axis is already relative to the edge -- so the ticks
were re-anchored away from the one position a triggered axis exists to
show, and the caption had nothing to explain.
The form is now decided by the tick step against `TickFormat::Time`'s own
resolution at the axis' magnitude (three significant figures below a
minute, whole seconds through `m:ss` to a day, three figures of days
above). The span said nothing about that and was wrong both ways: a 2 s
window at twenty minutes of uptime reads `20:00` on every tick and stayed
absolute.
The step is read back from the last layout's majors (a tick value depends
on the range and the axis width, not on the label form); with no ticks yet
the form is left alone rather than guessed, since the hysteresis would
latch a guess. Entering the relative form carries a ULP of slack, because
`step == res` is readable and a bare comparison of two differently
computed doubles flipped the form between frames.
`[timelabels-probe]` and the dump gain `distinct=`, which asserts that no
two major labels read the same -- the thing the relative form is for, and
the only reading that holds whatever the stream's uptime is.

The SI prefix ladder in format_measure() was gated on a non-empty unit, so two
decimals of a small unitless value printed `0.00` -- the reading gone, not merely
coarse. That is a whole class of channels rather than a corner: a CONFIG need not
declare a unit, and a math channel never has one. Below 1e-12 the same loss
happened even with a unit, so that range falls back to three significant digits.
With no unit the prefix goes tight against the number (`585.24m`), since the space
exists to separate the number from its unit and a spaced `m` alone reads as metres.
The mock declared `unit="V"` for every data signal, which is why no probe could see
this; it now takes `--unit ''`.

The previous commit took "fit x sets the window properly" to mean a fit should
frame the data and propagate that as the new time scale. It should not: a fit is
a plot interaction, and the window is also the trigger's event span and how the
samples are stored, so a fit that framed the data could re-plan the rings and
drop the history on a menu click. What a fit means here is the undo of a zoom --
a 2 s window zoomed into reads 2 s again.
`fit_x()` therefore reads `window_s_` and never writes it. Live it takes the
window-control path with the window already set, which re-arms the follow and
parks the newest span at the live edge. Pinned -- a held event, a filling capture
or a paused view -- it restores the pin's full range, which is the snapshot's own
span and may be narrower than the requested window, and it writes the per-row
member axes as well as the link group: `hold_pinned_window()` prefers a member
that differs from `pinned_stated_`, so writing the group alone is reverted to the
zoomed range one frame later. `apply_window_scale()` is folded back into
`apply_time_window()`, which the window control is again the only caller of.
The probe now zooms in before fitting, since otherwise there is nothing to undo,
and reports `pinned=`. `window` and `event_span` must be unchanged on every line.

The time scale is more than the axis: it is also the trigger's event span, the
buffer partition and the control's readout. A zoom or a pan was already clean --
the controller writes the member axis and `clamp_to_data()` caps the span -- but
both fits moved `window_s_` alone and only restated the control. The event span
then stayed on the previous window until the next decade step or unit change
applied the fitted value for real, so one action changed the time scale twice.
`apply_window_scale()` is split out of `apply_time_window()` for the fits to use:
it moves the partition, the event span, the control and the session, and leaves
the view alone, because `set_time_window()` re-arms the live follow and would
throw a held event or a paused view back onto the stream. The fits report the
span they framed, `fit_all()` delegates its x half to `fit_x()` so the two cannot
drift, and the probe drives the menu handlers rather than `RowSet` so it sees the
half that lives there. `[fit-probe]` gained `event_span=`, which must equal
`window=` on every line.
Also moves the plotter pin to 03c41ad (three build warnings, no behaviour).

The time ring was f32 like the values, holding each stamp relative to an epoch
fixed at the first sample ever seen -- so the number stored grew for as long as
the app ran while the interval it had to resolve stayed one sample period. At
1 MS/s the f32 ULP reaches the sample period after about sixteen seconds, so two
to four consecutive samples rounded onto one stamp after half a minute and eight
after a minute. On screen that is a plateau the LOD envelope draws as a
zero-width segment -- a vertical spike where the waveform should be -- and in an
export it was three distinct diffs at 2, 2.5 and 3 ULP instead of one clock.
A value's precision is a property of the signal; a timestamp's is a property of
how long the scope has been running. Only the clock widens: the values are the
memory budget. That makes the two slices different sizes per slot, so
plan_partition() weighs its growth loop in bytes rather than in slots (and
bytes_for() is what bounds the doubling); live_window_locked() loses the f32
round-trip of its bounds, which existed only to keep a sample sitting exactly on
one; and EventSnapshot::stamps is f64 because a pause view is not rebased and so
carries full stream time.
Verified against the fast mock: np.diff over two million exported rows now holds
exactly one step (1e-06, 1999999 times), no duplicate or backwards stamps, and
the 200 MB ring still spans 8.39 s. Every documented probe assertion unchanged.

AdwAboutDialog puts the application icon in its own header, which is what the
app now has one for, and adw_about_window_new() is deprecated in favour of it.
It is an AdwDialog and not a GtkWindow, so it clears on ::closed and closes with
adw_dialog_close() -- the same trap the shortcut overview documents, and both
dialogs now share one handler keyed by the pointer to clear.
Two gains while mapping the fields: system_information becomes debug_info, which
renders as a Troubleshooting page with a copy button, and the string behind it
becomes a std::string rather than a char[1024] that truncated a long settings
path in silence.
The probe now reads the icon name back out of the open dialog, so it is asserted
to carry the icon rather than merely to open.
The resource-path registration moves from build_toolbar() up into run_ui(),
because the window's icon is now a second consumer of it and this is the one
place ahead of both. Whichever consumer ran first would otherwise resolve its
name to nothing, with no error -- GTK draws a missing-image placeholder.
The new 'app icons:' dump line is the guard, computed on the first tick beside
'toolbar icons:'. It reports named-and-present at the size the file declares,
and deliberately does not claim the file renders: no runtime GTK call can see a
malformed SVG, which is why the manifest validates at build time instead.
The hand-rolled grid existed to avoid GTK's deprecated GtkShortcutsWindow;
libadwaita 1.8's AdwShortcutsDialog is the supported replacement, so use the
platform widget and get its search, sectioning and shortcut labels for free.
The table strings become GTK accelerator syntax, since the shortcut label parses
them. The six mouse rows cannot: no accelerator syntax names a wheel or a drag,
so they carry an empty accelerator and prose in the new subtitle field.
adw_init() is called in run_ui() and in choose_source() (replacing its
gtk_init()), which means the whole app is drawn with libadwaita's stylesheet.
Verified settled: viewport.w 870..870, axes.w changes 2, x-desync 0.

The pages are Pango markup in a GResource, bundled for the same reason the icons
are: udpscope runs straight out of the build tree with no install step, so a
runtime search path's failure mode would be a silently empty help window.
--c-name=udpscope_help keeps the two generated bundles from colliding.
Every page is validated with pango_parse_markup() at load and falls back to a
one-line stand-in rather than rendering raw markup or nothing. show_help() reuses
help_window.cpp's existing close-request handler, and closes via
gtk_window_close() so that handler runs and the pointer is nulled.
UDPSCOPE_PROBE_HELP_MS loads and validates every page, opens the help and About
windows, closes both and reports; parsed must equal pages.
The probe's doc-comment advised running it inside a pinned state "so the _held
readings mean the other axis did not move" — but the reads happen in the same
callback as the key events, so no frame can intervene and nothing can re-frame.
Worse, the advice hid the real reason the read is synchronous, which is the
opposite of what the pan and zoom probes do and so invites a future reader to
"fix" it: hold_pinned_window() clamps the x span into the pinned window, so a
reading taken a frame later would report that clamp's answer rather than the
restriction's for the ctrl case. Name the actual bug class a deferred read would
confuse it with, and point at the probe that does assert figure adoption.
std::fabs for the two span comparisons, matching the file's existing idiom —
<cstdlib> is also in scope here.
Seven correctness and documentation fixes found in the final review:
- `known_sources()`: check the strtol end pointer and add a round-trip
guard so a filename that layout_path() could not have produced is
rejected; without it `foo_8000x.toml` listed as `foo:8000` whose `x`
would unlink `foo_8000.toml`, a different configured session.
- `chooser_finish()`: destroy the form window before the chooser window;
a row click or Escape while the form was up left a window whose handlers
pointed at a dead stack frame (latent use-after-free).
- `choose_source()`: keep the pick_probe timeout id and g_source_remove
it after the loop; a row picked before the delay elapsed left an armed
source on the main context pointing at the gone frame.
- `chooser_populate()`: replace a false comment ("not a GtkListBoxRow")
with the truth — GTK4 auto-wraps, but the wrapped row carries no
source-index data so the bounds check refuses it.
- `pick_probe()`: collapse the duplicate `known.empty()` / `row==nullptr`
guards; the second was unreachable and two identical lines for one cause
makes probe output ambiguous.
- `save_layout()`: state the TOML rule directly in the multicast/interface
comment rather than cross-referencing the adjacent enabled comment.
- `save_layout_now()`: refuse to write when signals() is empty; a run
against a dead port receives no CONFIG, so every slot name is empty and
the save would overwrite a configured session with signals=["",...],
which the chooser filter refuses, silently removing that source from
the only list it can be picked from.
- Fix include order in layout_store.cpp (<cstdio> before <cstdlib>).
- Update CLAUDE.md and README.md to document the empty-signals guard and
fix the probe-output quote to match the emitted text exactly.

collect_layout() now reports the multicast group and interface the app was
launched with, so a stored session says how to reach its source and not just
which host and port it was.
The flicker ("no data" at no constant frequency, worse with the measurements
and cursors panes up) was a torn read of the window's first stamp: acquire()
pins the window to the ring's oldest slot, and reading it at paint time races
the producer lapping it, returning a stamp one ring span too new. x0() is the
origin every trace point is reconstructed from, so one torn read produced a
refused neighbours(), a filter that dropped three quarters of the points, and
a polyline shifted off its axis. It is cached by acquire() under the lock now.
EventSeries::neighbours() answered from the (x - x0)/dx grid, whose drift from
the real arrival stamps arrives as a constant offset in seconds -- a doubling
share of the screen per zoom step, which is the "zooming into a held event
clips it more from the left" report. Both series binary-search the stamps now.
The measurements pane went through the LOD pyramid rather than reading its
window raw (19.7 ms per recompute to 1.2 ms, 0.1% of a 2 M-sample window) and
recomputes on a cadence; the math engine lost a per-slot heap allocation, a
per-sample source lookup by name and a fetch_add that cost more than the
arithmetic it counted.
The cursors pane's mix mode drew a line per *named* slot, so a slot holding a
signal that can never produce a channel -- the stream's timestamp -- got a row
that could only read "--", and such names were re-saved every session. It
counts bound traces now and apply_layout() refuses them.
Four toolbar icons are drawn for this app and compiled in as a GResource: the
stock ones were a record dot for the trigger and three magnifiers for cursors,
measurements and math.
New probes and dump lines for all of it (trace ink, measure cost, math cost,
event zoom, toolbar icons); README and CLAUDE.md record what they cure.
