ui: sidebar tab selector uses text labels instead of icons
The two drawn tab glyphs were judged not understandable enough; the switcher goes to the wide policy with titles only, and the glyphs, their gresource entries and the icon-naming code are removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

Clear the open minors: lost marking and overrun logging, form teardown guard, line breaks and ERANGE in config, probe strength
The E-1608 source marks every restart as lost and logs each overrun; its form stops touching siblings after the chooser destroys them; the link skips command id 0, retries a full-buffer discover send and ignores a zero-length scan read. Session files escape \n and \r; get_int and get_double reject out-of-range values; the UDPS port spin reports changes; a skipped source panel says why on stderr. The E-1608 probe now checks the signal names and the reconnect itself. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com> |

fix: bound the density grid, and make [notrace] a reading instead of a flood
The plotter caps a density grid at kDensityCellCap now (deps/plotter), so a 2 s window with persistence on no longer scales the image with the window: the probe's four one-signal rows read 1 044 714 cells / 4 178 856 bytes where they read 2 226 150 / 8 904 600, and a moved frame uploads 1 044 714 bytes where it uploaded 2 226 150. The probe's own legs are unchanged (on peak=1.0000, step-acquisitions peak=1.5000, step-time ratio=0.367879). The paint probe no longer counts a frame the density is drawing as *traceless*. `Renderer::draw_traces()` returns while the ink is the image, so every frame of a persistence display stages no trace: the dump read `traceless paints: 653 (637 after the first bind)` for a run whose real figure is 4 (0), and the `[notrace]` line printed for each of those frames. It is now behind UDPSCOPE_PROBE_NOTRACE -- a per-paint line is a log flood and not a reading -- while the counters it details stay in every build, and the line stays reachable for the state it was written for (a bound row that draws nothing). Docs corrected where they stated the old rule: the README, the trigger invariants, the density probe's readings, the verification list (the new variable) and the manual page behind the panel's tooltip. |

fix: persistence is the trace's own phosphor, not a density behind a stroke
The plotter now deposits every acquisition -- the newest included -- into one grid per trace and
draws no solid trace over it, each grid in that trace's colour and with a one-sweep ceiling (its own
commit, **1b8b55d**). This side needed almost no change of its own, because the colour was already
the trace's and the trace's colour is `RowSet::signal_color()` -- the invariants' one route -- but the
figures it reads back are now per trace:
- **The ceiling is left at the library's default of one sweep**, no longer derived from the fade.
Deriving it from the steady state is the gain offset the user reported between the latest
acquisition and the persistent image; a signal crossing the same place every acquisition now settles
at the trace's colour, at full strength, and the newest sweep reads as the trace it is a picture of.
- **`cells`/`grid_bytes` are the sum over the row's traces** -- one grid each, a trace with no series
holding none -- and both the probe and the exit dump carry `traces=` beside `rows=`. That is what
makes the per-signal memory figure read: **556 537 cells and 2.2 MB per signal**, at 8904600 bytes
over the four one-signal rows of the probe's run.
The probes, re-read on this build (the `verification.md` command, `--rate 500000 --batch 1000`):
[density-probe] off enabled=0 ... rows=0 traces=0 cells=0 ink=0.0 peak=0.0000
[density-probe] on enabled=1 ... rows=4 traces=4 cells=2226150 ink=226786.0 peak=1.0000
[density-probe] step-acquisitions ... peak=1.5000
[density-probe] time-before ... peak=2.1359
[density-probe] step-time ... ratio=0.367879
[density-probe] frame cost: tick 0.62 -> 6.96 ms (184/23 frames), draw 2.02 -> 6.16 ms (177/18)
[udpscope] density: frames=748 rows=4 traces=4 cells=2226150 grid_bytes=8904600 ink=489400.2 peak=2.2 upload_bytes=2226150
`on` `peak=1.0000`, `step-acquisitions` `peak=1.5000` and `step-time` `ratio=0.367879` are the legs
that were expected, unchanged; the *draw* mean is now **below** the run before the split (2.02 -> 6.16
against 2.09 -> 20.91), because the solid traces are no longer drawn over the image.
Docs updated with it: the trigger manual page (`persistence` is the trace, one image per signal, the
newest included), the README's persistence section, `invariants-trigger-and-pinning.md` (five rules,
the ceiling and the no-stroke rule among them), `verification.md` and `probe-readings.md` (the lines
above), the trigger panel's comment and tooltips, and the plotter submodule.
`cmake --build build --clean-first -j4`: **0 errors, the documented three warnings** (two
`MathNode::source`, one `-Woverlength-strings` at 12352); `make -C build test-ui` **13 ok**;
`make -C build test-help` **green** (15 pages); the self-check **0 `Gtk-WARNING`/`Gtk-CRITICAL`** and
`gtk warnings: 0`, two `buffer allocated:` lines.

trigger: a phosphor persistence, driven by the plotter's density image
The trigger pane gains the display the user asked for and the library now provides, and the
persistence it already had is renamed to what it is.
**Persistence is one image; the last-N-traces display is "multiple events".** Both live in a new
`Advanced` expander in the trigger panel, together with the settings that are set up once and left
alone. `persistence` (a switch) turns on the plotter's `Plot::set_density()` for every row:
every triggered acquisition is accumulated into a screen-sized intensity grid drawn behind the
traces, brightness being how many acquisitions covered a cell -- no depth to choose, no memory
that grows with the acquisitions (2.2 MB over four 573x412 rows in the probe's run). `fades by`
picks the fade the user asked for: **acquisitions** (each keeps a factor of what was before it,
0.5 by default -- the phosphor afterglow) or **time** (a time constant in stream seconds, so the
display fades while you watch whatever the trigger rate).
- **Trigger mode only, as asked.** `apply_density()` (the tick) states the display on for `Held`
and `Capturing` and off for `Live`, `Waiting`, `Paused` and a file, and turning it off drops the
grid at once rather than at an acquisition a quiet trigger never sends. It is unpickable and
reserves no layout space, exactly as the invalid-span bands are: a density can never be in the
way of a cursor or a drop, and it cannot move the framing.
- **One deposit per acquisition, one frame after the frame that frames it.** `Plot::accumulate_density()`
deposits what the plot holds through the transforms of its *last* layout -- the frame's own is
computed inside the paint that follows the tick -- so `density_pending` is set beside
`record_pending` and consumed by the next tick. In the same tick it was right on a Held-to-Held
transition and wrong on the first latch, whose axis was still the live ring's. Switching the
display on under an acquisition already on screen deposits it too, so the switch does not appear
to do nothing until the next latch (`single` mode may never send one).
- **The session carries it**: `trigger_density`, `trigger_density_decay` ("acquisitions"/"time",
the words the panel shows), `trigger_density_tau` and `trigger_density_factor`, written whether
or not it is on -- and `trigger_persistence` still means the multiple-event depth, so an older
file is unchanged.
- **The library changed twice under this**: the deposit now counts a cell **once per trace per
sweep** (counting the hits put one dense sweep at the ceiling of the brightness scale and hid the
sweeps behind it -- the probe's `on` leg read `peak=18` for a single sweep and reads `peak=1`
now), and a frame's upload is every row's rather than the last row's. Both are in the plotter's
own commit.
`UDPSCOPE_PROBE_DENSITY_MS` reads it all back off the plots -- the plotter's own `ink()`/`peak()` --
with the panel's own widgets driving the switch and the fade, in four legs: **off** (`rows=0
ink=0.0 peak=0.0000`), **on** (`rows=4`, `peak=1.0000`), **step-acquisitions** (`peak=1.0000 ->
1.5000`, the factor then the new sweep) and **step-time** (`ratio=0.367879`, `1/e` for `dt = tau`).
It also reads the frame cost as an A/B **inside one run** (the accumulators at the switch against
the frames after it): `tick 0.74 -> 9.99 ms`, `draw 2.09 -> 20.91 ms` at four rows and 2.2 M cells
on llvmpipe.
Acceptance: clean build 0 errors and exactly the three documented warnings (12352-byte GResource
blob, two `MathNode::source`), `test-ui` 13/13, `test-help` green, a plain run with **0
Gtk-CRITICAL / Gtk-WARNING** and `gtk warnings: 0`, and the panel's own frame reading
`boxes=16 controls_inside=15/15 advanced_widgets=5/5 advanced_inside=5/5` (the block's controls
counted from the expander's child, which is not in the widget-parent chain -- and the search
block's walk now names *its* expander instead of "the first one", which the second expander would
have stolen).
Docs: the trigger/pinning invariants carry the rule and its five consequences, `probe-readings.md`
the four legs and the dump line, `verification.md` the probe's sequence and assertions, and the
manual's trigger page explains both displays to a user.

trigger: a phosphor display keeps the last N acquisitions; and a Force button
Two changes in the trigger pane, landed together. **Persistence.** Trigger mode keeps the last N published acquisitions and draws them fading toward the background, N being a panel control (1..8, default 1) with N=1 meaning today's behaviour exactly, so the knob is the switch. The layers are the accumulate path's own -- one layer per (signal, age) in the row's free trace slots, named with the accumulate vocabulary so `layer_base_name()` strips the suffix and `signal_color()` resolves the base signal -- so a layer is not a signal: the signal list, the colours and the measurements see one row per signal. `ScopeModel` retains the outgoing snapshot in seven atomic `shared_ptr` slots (no lock, no copy; the snapshot already exists) and a layer's channel is resolved **by name inside the snapshot**, because the channel list is renumbered by any structural change since that acquisition was cut. `RowSet::sync_layers()` re-plans from the rows and the depth alone, so a latch costs no rebuild, and `event_data_window()` skips layer slots so an older acquisition can never re-pin the axis. The schedule is 0.5^age -- the acquisition on screen at full brightness and each older one half the previous, independent of N, so raising the depth adds dimmer acquisitions rather than rescaling the ones already on screen. Memory is bounded by the ring's own `--buffer-mb` rather than by the depth, which is the bound that cannot be driven into an OOM, and the panel says when either bound bites. This also wired up `set_trace_alpha()`, which the accumulate path was setting and nothing was reading -- so the documented 0.35 translucency of an accumulation was opaque in fact. **Force.** In the trigger pane beside Arm/Disarm, shown only while trigger mode is on: one acquisition now, with the configured window. It is a synthetic edge rather than a second publisher -- the engine opens one capture at the present moment and everything else is the ordinary latch, so a forced acquisition is cut, pinned, framed, recorded and cached exactly like a latched one, and the button owns no window and no publish. The pre-trigger gate is deliberately skipped (capture now is a request for the history that exists, and the snapshot reports its own shorter pre_s), a capture already filling is refused rather than restarted, and the state afterwards is the mode's: Normal stays armed, Single disarms. The request is one atomic flag written under the model mutex with `armed` -- the producer reads `armed` at the top of a packet and the request at the bottom, so a request written between the two would be dropped -- and consumed at the end of a packet, after the channel loop and before the pending publish. **A defect fixed in passing, in the function Force was modelled on:** `on_arm_clicked()` passed `TriggerConfig::channel` (an index into `channels()`) to `set_signal_enabled()` (an index into `signals()`). With one signal acquired, arming switched on the stream's clock signal and left the watched signal untouched -- and since a signal the panel was not showing is a change, it rebuilt the buffer under the click, dropping the very pre-trigger window the arming, and now the Force, was about to capture. Measured before: `0.0100 s of history behind it`; after: `2.5299 s`. `trigger_signal_index()` is now the one resolution, used by both buttons. |

perf: a measurement pane is priced by its window, and its fold is inline
A pane is recomputed over the whole visible window on a cadence, and at a 15 s window (11.8 M samples, 184 k level-0 level buckets, `--buffer-mb 4000` so the stride stays 1) that is priced per *measured channel* and per *distinct share*. Measured with the new `[levels-probe]` sweep, per recompute: one window with one level 6.58 ms, four shares 10.28 ms, sixteen shares 24.55 ms, and four measurements one share each over four channels **35.69 ms** -- against a tick mean of 1.34 ms with an empty pane and 4.58 ms with that one. That is the reported "very slow with multiple measurements": the pass runs inside `tick()`, so it is a *frame* cost, and not an ingest one -- `gaps` and `packets` stay clean even though each `MeasureWindowReader` holds the model mutex for its whole life, because a socket buffer absorbs a few tens of milliseconds of producer. The largest single term inside a pass was a call. `measure_accumulate_bucket()` folds one bucket into one level, and it is the innermost loop of a walk whose iteration count is the window's buckets *times* the pane's levels; it lived out of line in `measure.cpp`, so every one of those iterations was a cross-translation-unit call. Moving it, and the crossing state it updates, into `measure.hpp` as `inline` takes sixteen shares on one channel from 24.55 to **17.25 ms** a recompute -- with every value in the dump's `measurements:` unchanged. Two levers remain and both are measured: the fetch's three out-of-line pyramid accessors plus a 48-byte copy per bucket (3.3 ms of an 11.8 M-sample window's 11.6 ms pass) needs a combined accessor upstream, and `raw` is the *signal's* share (4.6 % on the mock's noisy channel against 0.1 % on its sine), because a level inside a bucket's own `[lo, hi]` has to be walked sample by sample. Bisected with the pane populated (the earlier bisect had it empty, which cannot see this): the parent of the recent range and HEAD read **8.29** and **7.92 ms** a recompute for the same four-type pane at the same window, and neither of the two commits between them touches `ui_measure.cpp` or `measure.cpp` at all. So the cost is the scale and not a regression, and the fix makes a pass cheaper rather than removing one -- the plot's own per-frame cost was checked the same way (four commits, equal within 3 %, and unchanged by the window, the ring size and the visible sample count). `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_LEVELS_MS` with `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_LEVELS` and `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_LEVELS_CHANNELS` is the sweep; `docs/claude/invariants-measurements.md` records the curve and the inline rule, `verification.md` and `probe-readings.md` the probe and what its numbers must read, and the README the pane's cost at this scale. |

fix: a still frame's measurements are the frame's, not the viewport's
A measurement is a statistic of the window the pane is *about*, and on a pinned view -- a held event, a paused stream, an opened file -- that is the frame, not the part of it on screen. The pane followed the viewport instead, so a wheel on a latched event moved `average` and `top`: the reported "when measuring a still frame, moving the zoom makes measurements such as average or top change". Nothing about the data had changed; the user was only looking closer. The window is `RowSet::pinned_range()` while the pin frames the view and the viewport otherwise, and the choice is made in `update_measures()` -- the call site -- rather than inside `MeasureWindowReader`, because it is *booked* as well as read: that window is what the "it moved" test compares against `App::measure_window`, so a gesture inside the pin spends no recompute either, and a reader that chose its own would leave a pinned view recomputing every gesture frame for a number that cannot change. `pinned_range()` is now the one expression of the pin's extent, shared with the framing (`hold_pinned_window()`, `fit_x()`), and the reader is handed the window instead of reading the plot. Live is unchanged: there the window really moves and the statistic follows it, and the accumulator's rule about what resets the history is about neither. `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_MEASUREPIN_MS` is the guard, three legs of before/after a gesture on the row's own axis. On a latched event zoomed to a quarter (`view=[-1..1]` -> `[-0.25..0.25]`, `pin` unchanged): `same=4/4 for_same=1 pass_delta=0`, every value bit-identical -- `average=0.000000 top=0.957975 peak to peak=2.000000 amplitude=1.915950` both sides. The same on a pause taken from it. Since the key `for=` follows `pin=` now, `[measure-trace]` gained the field, so a held run reads `for==pin` with `swin` free to sit inside it. On a live view a zoom to an eighth reads `same=0/4 for_same=0 pass_delta=3 span_after=0.125000 follows=1` with the values moving -- the case the rule must not swallow. Before the fix the same probe reads `same=1/4 for_same=0 pass_delta=1 span_after=0.500000` on the held event (`top` `0.957975` -> `0.957966`) and `same=0/4 span_after=0.125000` on the pause (`top` `0.957944` -> `0.358614`). Live reads the same either way. Also fixed, found by the pause leg: pausing while an event is *held* froze an **empty** picture. `on_pause_toggled()` read `stream_at_x0()` after setting the pause state, and that accessor follows the display -- `paused` with no pause view published yet answers `-display_epoch()`, which on a held event is 0, so the cut searched the ring at edge-relative x, found nothing, and the frame bound an empty snapshot: every measurement `--`, every ruler gone (`ev=650001` on the probe's line now, `ev=0` before). The offset and the window are read first, which is the offset the axis is actually displaying. The live case is unaffected, which is why the pause probe, which pauses a live view, never saw it. Docs corrected where they asserted the old half-truth: the invariants now separate the accumulator's rule (unchanged) from the window a value is computed over (this change), the trigger/pinning file names the pin as load-bearing for both the framing and the numbers and records the pause ordering rule, `verification.md`/`probe-readings.md` describe the new probe and `pin=`, and the README and the manual say what a still frame measures. Checked: `cmake --build build --clean-first -j4` 0 errors and the documented three warnings; `make -C build test-ui` 13 ok; `make -C build test-help` green; an exit-dump run 0 Gtk-WARNING/Gtk-CRITICAL and `gtk warnings: 0`; `[measurepin-probe]`, `[pan-probe]` (`held=1`, `allowed=1`, `limited=1`), `[pause-probe]` (`event_size` non-zero exactly while paused, `axis` inside `frozen_x`, `skips` 0 live / 30 paused), `[stats-probe]` (`dn=1` across the pause), `[zoom-probe]` (`gap_px=0.0` at every step) and `[measure-probe]` + the dump's `measures window:` (all-types run `marks_in_window=4/4`, `pin=off` live) on the fast mock. `measure cost:` is unchanged in kind: `raw=37298 (0.0%)` of `covered=121704537`, 1.04 ms a pass -- the runs that read higher are the probe's own zoomed-to-a-slice windows, where the window is legitimately shorter than a bucket. |

fix: a recompute that renumbered its ring, and readouts frozen under a zoom
Three defects, all of them a window describing data that is not there. A math edit refilled the derived ring with `clear()`, which renumbers it from 0, leaving `produced()` short by the inputs' retained base. Since `live_window_locked()` clamps against every channel's `produced()`, that one lagging channel answered `n = 0` for the live view, every pause view and every trigger capture until a whole ring of fresh data had gone by -- the reported freeze, invisible until the ring first wraps, hence its intermittence. It now restarts with `clear_to(base)`, and `ChannelBuffer::republish_from(base)` puts the published window back: `acquire()` is incremental, so a rewrite in place published nothing and the pyramid went on describing the samples the edit replaced. The trigger's channel is an index, re-resolved by name after a renumbering -- but only in `rebuild_enabled_locked()`, so a math add or delete went through `set_math_channels()` with no restore, the index was clamped to -1, and `process()` returned at once while the panel still named the channel. The restore moves into `rebuild_channels()`, which *is* the renumbering, so no caller can forget it. And `update_measures()` suppressed its "the window moved" test while an event was held -- the one mode where a gesture is the only thing that can move it. Zooming a latched event left the pane describing the whole captured event. A pinned window needs no exemption: it lands on the range it already measured and fails the 2 % test by itself. The checks that missed all three: `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_MATHWRAP_MS` edits a graph whose ring has already wrapped, which `math_probe` structurally cannot reach; `[measure-trace]` now prints the mode, the window on screen and the window the numbers describe; and the dump's `marks_in_window` counts against the window on screen instead of against the one the marks were computed over, where it was a tautology.

fix: a claimed gap must be corroborated before it is believed, and its hole must fit
The user's real host reported "connected and live" with one missing-data band over the whole window
and no trace in it. The counter is the only thing that claims a packet existed, and a reservation
was booked on its word alone: a source whose DATA counter counts samples, or frames of an inner
layer, advances by more than 1 per datagram, the client cannot check that claim (it has no clock of
its own to compare against), so it holds each packet, saturates its reorder ring, delivers it in
order and reports the skipped counters as lost. Every frame therefore reported a phantom gap, and
`reserve_hole()` wrote `lost * batch_` NaN samples with no bound but the 256-PACKET cap -- the
sample form of that rule ("the number to weigh against the ring is 256 * batch_, not the 256") was
never implemented. With relative time on -- which that session carries -- each phantom gap is
materialised as NaN slots by construction: the window filled with reservations, there was never
anything missing to repair them, and the gaps also stretched the relative clock, which is why the
status bar read live at ten times the true rate.
`Acquisition::gap_plausible()` now gates every reservation on two independent tests: the arrival
clock must corroborate the claim (that many missing packets would take that many frame intervals;
deliberately permissive, because a false refusal costs a shading and never data), and the ring must
be able to hold the hole. The verdict is taken before the stamps, and relative mode's slot advance
is skipped with it, since the advance and the reservation are the same claim. Refusals are counted
in `StreamStats::gaps_refused` and said once per connection with the numbers, naming the wire shape
they describe.
tools/mock_udpstreamer.py gains `--counter-step N`: a counter that is not a packet counter on an
intact link, which is the one shape the mock could not produce and the shape the report came from.
Verified in both directions. A counter stepping 1000 per datagram reads `holes=0 hole_slots=0
backfilled=0` with the traces present (3 traces, 1.4 M samples) against 7.9 M claimed gaps, and the
warning above names the cause. Every other packet withheld -- a real loss -- still reads
`holes=3579`, so genuine gaps are still reserved: a fix that stopped believing real losses would
have traded one wrong picture for another. The user's control read as "the math channel is the
problem" and was confounded -- disabling it is a structural change, which rebuilds the buffer and
clears the accumulated NaN.

measure: the split's own means are back as above/below/between
`top`, `bottom` and `amplitude` became the *flat levels* in

measure: top/bottom/amplitude read the flat levels, not the extremes
A bench scope separates Vtop/Vbase from Vmax/Vmin because a band-limited edge overshoots and rings: the mock's `square` at 30 harmonics reaches ±1.179 where its plateau is ±1. On the rippled square the old readings were a property of the edges rather than of the waveform -- `top` 0.986496, `amplitude` 1.179350 -- and `amplitude` reported the overshoot. `top`, `bottom` and `amplitude` are now the flat levels and their delta. A flat level is a density question -- the plateau holds most of the samples and the ringing a few percent -- so `measure_scan_buckets()` folds a 64-bin histogram of the whole buckets' midpoints while it has the list in hand (one observation per bucket, each bin carrying its buckets' exact sum and finite count), and `measure_flat_levels()` takes, either side of the split, the densest bin holding at least half the densest one's buckets -- the outermost of those, which is what makes a waveform with no plateau read its peak -- and the exact mean of the samples of the buckets within 5 % of the window's peak-to-peak of it. 5 % is deliberately under the ~9 %-of-swing Gibbs overshoot. `amplitude` is `top - bottom` (a scope's Vamplitude), not the half-swing it was. Measured, fast mock, 2 s window, harmonics 0 -> 30: top 1.000000 -> 0.999983, bottom -1.000000 -> -0.999983, amplitude 2.000000 -> 1.999966, while `peak to peak` keeps the extremes (2.000000 -> 2.358701). On the 1 Hz sine top is 0.957988 (it was 0.636620, the half-wave mean; a sine has no plateau, so the densest band is at its peak) with sd 0.0014 over a scrolling window, and `peak to peak` is still exactly 2. No raw pass and no new fetch: the histogram is the same fetched bucket list read a second time, gated on a pane that holds one of the three types. `raw` is unchanged (0.1% clean, 2.1% with the --noise 0.1 interferer, against 0.1%/2.1% before) for 0.44 -> 0.50 ms and 0.52 -> 0.65 ms a pass. A window the pyramid cannot summarize -- an hf-filtered walk, or one shorter than a bucket -- keeps the old readings: the mean of each side of the split, and the window's peak to peak for amplitude. Docs: the flat-level invariant (and the two 2/pi assertions it replaces), the probe readings, the manual's measurements page and the README. |

fix: the guided tour selects the page a stop's target lives on
A stop whose target is on another page of a stack was entered without switching to that page, so the spotlight aimed at a widget that was not on screen. A stop now declares the page it stands on (`TourStop::page`) and the tour selects it as the step is entered -- the window's trigger and signals stops put the sidebar on Signals, the chooser's tabs stop shows the Waveforms page and stepping off it brings Sources back. The stop filter moved into `tour_begin()` and now runs on `gtk_widget_get_mapped()`: GTK 4.24's `is_visible()` ignores `child_visible`, so it kept a stop on another page *and* one in a collapsed pane alike. A wrong page is kept and selected; a collapsed pane, whose stack is unmapped too, is still dropped. |

help: a tinier (i), hints beside their controls, and the tour starting in the chooser
The contextual help becomes the affordance the ask names: a plain (i) (`dialog-information-symbolic`) at **16x16**, and one that sits beside the control it explains rather than only in a pane's heading. - The mark: `GtkMenuButton` ignores `min-width` on the widget and a size request, so the size is made in `install_css()` on all three nodes (outer `menubutton`, its `button` subnode, the glyph). Measured 16x16 against the default 34x34; the dump prints it as `hint=WxH`, measured with `gtk_widget_compute_bounds()` on the first *visible* hint. - More sites: `events_record` (the "record events" switch in the trigger panel), `trigger_advanced` (the pre-trigger share row), `signals_config` (the signals pane's hint line, wrapped in a box so a hint can join it). Hints join as siblings, so none can cover a switch, pencil or dropdown. - The source chooser gets its own layer -- `chooser_sources` (a new heading above the saved-source list) and `chooser_waveform` (the waveforms action row) -- built with the one `context_help_button()` both windows use and re-synced by its Help menu's toggle. The form's `AdwEntryRow`s cannot host a sibling hint, so none is invented for the host/port fields. - The tour is one implementation over two windows: `ui_impl::TourView` plus a list of `TourStop`s; each window keeps its own table. A walk that passes its last stop calls `on_done`, and the chooser's sets `Config::tour_pending`, so a first run is one tour that crosses from the chooser into the app. The chooser's tour auto-starts from `settings.tour_seen` exactly as the window's does, and its "Guided tour" row now starts *it* instead of only requesting the window's. - Probes: `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_CHOOSER_TOUR=1` / `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_CHOOSER_TOUR_MS`, the hint size in the `help layer:`/`[helpui] contextual on:` lines, and the chooser's hints in its `chooser ui:` line.

help: default the contextual layer off, and carry the help into the chooser
The contextual help was on by default, so a first run met a window with a "?" beside every surface it had not asked to have explained; `contextual_help` now defaults to false and the layer is asked for from the Help menu, from the chooser's new help menu, or with Ctrl+H. The source chooser runs before `App` exists, which makes it the window a user who does not know how to start is looking at, so it now carries the same three help affordances the window's Help view does: Documentation (the manual is another process and needs nothing of the app), Enable contextual help (a row whose check *is* the setting, written to the file the app reads a moment later), and Guided tour. The tour is drawn on the app's own window, so the chooser can only record the wish: it sets `Config::tour_pending` -- the value `main()` owns and hands to both `choose_source()` and `run_ui()` -- and `on_activate()` starts it once the window is up and laid out, through its own callback so the readings can tell a request from the first-run auto-start. The rows are the window's own `menu_button()`/`menu_toggle()`; `install_css()` therefore runs from `choose_source()` (it is idempotent now) so the popover gets the `.udpscope-menu` rules before it is shown. Opening the manual could also fail with a message that blamed the handler whatever was missing. `help_installed_path()` now resolves `help:<id>` the way the specification does and the failure alert says which of the two it is: with the set installed it names the viewer, without it it names the identifier, the expected installed path and the install command. `show_help()` gained an optional reporter, which `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_HELP_MS` uses for a new reading -- `[help] launch attempted= done= ok= error='' installed=` -- since a successful launch leaves no window of ours to observe. Tested: clean --clean-first build, three warnings as documented; test-ui 13/13 and test-help pass; no Gtk-CRITICAL in the help, helpui and chooser runs. |

feat: the help is a submenu, with a contextual-help layer and a guided tour
The hamburger menu's help rows were three flat entries and a window. They are a **`Help` submenu** now, which is where every GNOME menu keeps them, with the four things a first run cannot find: - Keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+/ (the existing overview, `show_shortcuts()`) - Documentation F1 (the existing manual, `show_help()`) - Guided tour Ctrl+T (new) - Enable contextual help (new, a stateful row: its check *is* the setting) The submenu *replaces* the menu's rows rather than floating beside them, the same shape and the same reason as the plot's right-click menu: a submenu torn out of the menu it belongs to is a second thing to dismiss, and the `GtkMenuButton` that owned one toggled itself out of sync the moment anything else closed its popover. It is the pages of a `GtkStack`, not a rebuild of the box and not a swap of the popover's child: the main view holds `app.layout_toggle`, which the tick's `sync_layout_editor()` and the `L` accel read, so rebuilding would leave that pointer on a destroyed widget, and a swapped child would leave the view that is not showing without an owner. **The contextual help is one table and a "?" per surface** (`src/ui_context_help.cpp`): the plot, the trigger, the cursors, the measurements, the math channels, the signals, the event history, the time window, the status line, and the math editor's identity row. Each row names the *heading box* its button joins -- a sibling of the title, never an overlay child on a corner, which is what would cover the switch or the [edit] button already there -- so adding a surface is a row and a widget pointer. Off means *gone*, not greyed: the buttons are removed, and they are found by a data key rather than a list of pointers because the math editor's heading is built afresh on every opening and a list would go stale one dialog later. `contextual_help` and `tour_seen` are keys of `settings.toml`, written through the same `Settings`/`load_settings()`/`save_settings()` the Preferences dialog uses, whose own rows start from `load_settings()` and so carry them through untouched. **The guided tour is five steps on a `GtkOverlay`** above the window's content: the plot, the side panel, the trigger, the signals and the status line. There is no popover in it and therefore no pointer grab to leak -- four dim rectangles around the hole are what make it modal -- and the probe asserts that as a reading (`controllers=` against the count taken before it opened) rather than as a claim. Everything is placed from `gtk_widget_compute_bounds()` re-read on every frame, because a widget's allocation is 0 on the frame it is first shown and a window resize moves it under a one-shot measurement; the hole is kept from the last frame that could measure the target, because a frame that lands between two layout passes would otherwise empty it and make the spotlight jump. `Skip`, `Finish` and `Escape` all hide every child and leave nothing behind. A first run gets the tour once, decided by `tour_seen` and not by "the settings file did not exist" (a user who changed the theme has a file and has still never seen it), and the flag is written when the tour *starts* rather than when it finishes: a user who skips it in the first second has still seen it. `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_HELPUI_MS` drives all of it -- the auto-start, the menu's seven rows and the submenu's five, the toggle's effect read as a count of affordances on either side of it, and the tour started, stepped forwards and back and dismissed -- and the exit dump gains `help layer:` and `help figures:`, the latter being the ten surfaces' window-coordinate rectangles that the manual's annotated screenshots crop their boxes from. Two of them are what the D-Bus-free headless run can still not decide, and both are limitations rather than defects: export carries no "?" (it is a menu action with no surface of its own, and a popover inside the menu's popover is the nested-popover trap the invariants already warn about), and the tour card cannot miss its target when the target is the whole content -- which is what the plot is at the window's 756 px minimum, where the split view overlays the side panel instead of putting it beside the plot. The probe prints both rectangles rather than asserting a placement, so that case reads as the geometry it is. Also fixed while it was found: `gtk_widget_measure()` includes the widget's own margins (measured: a 280 px box with `margin-start 453` reports 733), so a measure that is used to *place* the widget is a feedback loop -- that is what made the tour card walk between the corner and the target from frame to frame. |

feat: the manual is a Mallard set opened in Yelp, not a GResource in the binary
The help was 14 Pango-markup `.txt` bodies in a second GResource, drawn into a paged `GtkWindow` built in `help_window.cpp`. That made F1 a viewer of ours with no search index, no cross-references and no translation, and it kept the manual in the *binary* when every other desktop application's is a document on disk. It is now a real Mallard set: help/C/org.udpscope.app/ index.page + 14 topic pages + figures/*.png and `show_help()` hands `help:org.udpscope.app` to whatever the desktop registered for the `help:` scheme -- Yelp on GNOME -- through a `GtkUriLauncher`, reporting a launch failure with a `GtkAlertDialog` rather than a click that silently does nothing. The paged window's builder, the page table and `help_self_check()`'s markup validation are gone with the resource. The document identifier is the desktop file's own basename (its desktop-file id), derived in CMakeLists from `data/org.udpscope.app.desktop.in`, so the same string is the `.desktop` name, the GApplication id and the install directory at once. The set is installed by a new `install()` rule to `<datadir>/help/C/org.udpscope.app/` -- where the freedesktop Help System Specification's `help:` URI resolves `help:<id>` -- so the manual is read from a datadir by another process even though the binary has no install step. `UDPSCOPE_HELP_NAME` and `UDPSCOPE_HELP_DIR` are compiled in from that one place. The 14 pages were migrated fact for fact, but restructured the Mallard way: a `<desc>` per page (what a search result shows), `<steps>` for procedures, `<terms>` for option lists, `<gui>`/`<key>`/`<keyseq>` for interface words and keys, `<note>` for the asides, and a topic graph via `<link type="guide" xref="index#main"/>`. The figures are annotated screenshots produced by `tools/make-help-shots.sh`, which drives the app headlessly against `tools/mock_udpstreamer.py` and draws the boxes with ImageMagick; the side panel's box is measured from the app's own `side=NNNx` dump reading, the header and status bands come from a documented table, and a crop whose standard deviation is 0 fails the script. `cmake --build build --target test-help` checks the set the way `test-ui` checks the `.ui` files: `yelp-check`'s offline subcommands (links, media, orphans, ids) and a `yelp-build html` render. `yelp-check validate` is deliberately absent -- it fetches the Mallard RelaxNG schema over the network and fails offline for that reason, not for a fault in the pages. The `[help]` probe reading changes with the resource it was written for. `parsed == pages` over in-binary markup cannot exist now, so `help_self_check()` scans `UDPSCOPE_HELP_DIR` and the line reads `topics=14 index=1 figures=3`; `topics=0 index=0` is the manual missing from the tree, which is the finding the old count named. Verified: clean build with the documented three warnings (the help bundle's `-Woverlength-strings` is gone, so the baseline moves from four to three); test-ui 14/14; test-help clean (the four subcommands and 15 pages rendered); a temp-prefix install lands 15 `.page` files and 3 figures at `share/help/C/org.udpscope.app/`; the headless run reads `[help] topics=14 index=1 figures=3 dir=...` with 0 Gtk-CRITICAL. Yelp's own window could not be exercised on this box -- it starts under Xvfb, activates its portals and never maps, the same WebKit/portal limitation that stops a grab -- so its rendering and its search index are unverified here; the content pipeline was (`yelp-build` renders the whole set). Docs: the manual's build/install/open story in `build-and-run.md` and README; the warning baseline in `verification.md`/CLAUDE.md; the help bullets in `invariants-gtk-and-chrome.md`; the `[help]` line in `probe-readings.md`. |

feat: the locked trigger pane carries Arm/Disarm, and one function states both arm buttons
The compact line -- the pane's locked, "what is it set to" mode -- showed the arm state in words and gave
no way to change it, so arming from there meant unfolding the panel first, which is the thing the lock
exists to avoid. The control is built into the pane's *heading*, the row that stays on screen when the
body goes, and it is wired to the same `on_arm_clicked` the body's button uses, so both do one thing.
Its label, sensitivity and visibility are stated by `sync_arm_buttons()`, called from the four places any of
its inputs can move: the click, the mode toggle, the curator's per-tick re-read (a single-shot latch disarms
by itself) and `apply_pane_lock()`. The label comes from the producer's `trigger_armed()` atomic, the other
two from the toolbar toggle that owns `enabled`, so no caller needs the model lock. Visibility is
`enabled && locked`: with trigger mode off the line beside it already reads "stream (trigger off)" and there
is no engine to arm, and with the pane open the body's own button is the one on screen. Never both -- two
arm buttons would be two controls for one state.
Verified with the arm probe, which locks the pane the way a user does (the [edit] click):
compact arm with the trigger off: visible=0; with the trigger on and the pane locked:
visible=1 sensitive=1 width=51 label=Disarm
[udpscope] compact arm probe: locked=1 enabled=1 own=1 effective=1 width=51 panel_width=-1 label=Disarm
`panel_width=-1` is the "not both" assertion: the body's button is not on screen while the compact one is.
The width cost a defect to read. The control is created hidden and shown for the first time inside the
handler, so a same-tick `gtk_widget_get_width()` reads 0 while `gtk_widget_is_visible()` already says 1 --
and the body button's *stale* allocation (270 px, from when the body was still up) reads as a live one,
because `gtk_widget_get_visible()` is the widget's own flag and stays true under a hidden parent. The
reading is therefore taken one frame later, by a step of its own, and the control is compared with
`is_visible()`. Both defects are in the invariants, because the next control read this way will meet them.
0 Gtk-CRITICAL; clean build with the documented four warnings (the help resource re-measured); test-ui
14/14. Docs: the rule and both readings in `invariants-trigger-and-pinning.md`, the probe's entry in
`probe-readings.md`, and the user-facing sentence in `src/help/08-trigger.txt`.

feat: the export writes an MDF 3.30 file, so a window loads in ScryLab
A third format beside `.npy` and `.csv`, written by hand in `src/export.cpp` -- MF4 is HDF5 and would mean a library, MF3 is a handful of fixed blocks. The layout is the asammdf 8.8.27 reader's own field list, byte-diffed against a known-good 3.30 file it wrote; the shape is the one ScryLab's data-source contract asks for: one channel group, record-interleaved, the master as the x axis, and the unit in the channel's conversion block. So in MDF the master is `abs_seconds`, named `time` -- the clock that is the same in every display mode -- and the plotted axis goes out as an ordinary channel, `time_relative`. `ExportTable::Column` gained the CONFIG's unit, which only this writer spells out; the `.npy`/`.csv` bytes are unchanged, and `write_export()` now picks the writer for both the dialog and the probe. |

fix: the overlaid sidebar steps aside for a drag, and the compact view follows the trigger
Two reports, both real, and neither was about the lock itself.
**A drag out of an overlaid sidebar had nowhere to land.** In a window too narrow to show both columns,
`AdwOverlaySplitView` puts the sidebar *on* the plot — that is what `collapsed` means — so the pointer
stays over the list and never over a drop target: a signal could be dragged but not dropped, which reads
as "dragging does not work". `row_drag_sidebar()` now hides the sidebar on `drag-begin` and restores it on
`drag-end`, and only when collapsed: side by side the plot is already visible, and hiding the list the drag
started in would be startling. The reading begins a drag through the *source* with the state forced
collapsed, the way the sidebar probe forces it:
pane drag: sidebar hidden for the drag=1 restored after it=1
**The compact view did not follow the trigger switch.** The locked line's first branch reads
`tc.enabled` — with trigger mode off it says `stream (trigger off)` and nothing else — and
`on_trigger_toggled()` never re-synced it, so the line kept saying whichever it had been. One call to
`sync_trigger_summary()` beside the switch sync. The dump's two `panes:` lines were already the test and
now pass it: with a session whose trigger is off, the line as found reads `stream (trigger off)` and the
live one reads the settings, because the exit probe turns the trigger on in between. Both reading `stream`
was the defect.
Verified: the two lines above; `panes: the same line as the probe found it: 'mode: stream (trigger off)'`
against the live `'signal: square | condition: window, rising | level: 0.3 .. 0.6 | mode: normal'`;
`make test-ui` 14 files; zero `Gtk-CRITICAL`. Docs: the `pane drag:` reading and the invariants bullet for
the overlay, and the `panes:` pair's second job — the refresh test — written down so the next reader knows
what both lines reading `stream` means.

test: the locked signal list keeps its drag, and the reading says so
Asked for: dragging a signal onto a plot must still work in the compact (view) list. It does — the drag
source is on the *row* and was never conditional on the lock — but nothing said so, and "the lock rebuilds
this list and drops three of its controls" is exactly the change that could take the drag with it. Now it
is a reading: **`drag_sources` must be `rows - 1`**, one per signal row, the `MATH` divider not being
draggable.
signals panel: … rows=3 signals=2 math=0 divider=1 drag_sources=2 (locked)
signals panel: … rows=5 signals=4 math=0 divider=1 drag_sources=4 (configuration mode)
Measured the direct way first, with a throwaway walk of the list's rows and
`gtk_widget_observe_controllers()`: `locked=1 rows=3 rows_with_a_drag_source=2`, the third row being the
divider. That is where the number in the reading comes from, and the walk is what found the shape of the
answer rather than assuming it.
One consequence worth recording, because it is an improvement rather than a cost: a locked row can be
dragged from *anywhere* on it, the colour chip included. In configuration mode the chip carries a click
gesture that claims the event sequence precisely so a drag cannot start there (it opens the colour
chooser); the locked list does not build that gesture, so the chip is inert and the row's drag source
sees the press.
What the lock does *not* change is which signals are listed: only the ones that are on. A signal nobody
acquires draws nothing on a plot, so a row for it would be a drag that ends in an empty slot.
Verified: both lines above, from sessions differing only in whether one exists; `make test-ui` 14 files;
zero `Gtk-CRITICAL`. Docs: the `drag_sources` field with what a `0` would mean, the invariants' lock
bullet, and the README's note.

ui: Arm is disabled with trigger mode off, and the redundant Go-live button is gone
**`Arm` is now disabled while trigger mode is off**, and labelled `Arm` again: it is the one control in that pane that is *runtime* rather than setting, so with no engine running there is nothing to arm. It is also the only thing in the body that stays disabled — the settings themselves stay editable, which is the point of the previous commit. `arm sensitive with the trigger off=0` is the reading. **`Go live (trigger off)` is deleted.** Its handler was `trigger_toggle → FALSE`, i.e. exactly the toolbar's trigger switch and the pane's own switch, which is what it was for: "the way out of trigger mode, from inside the panel that froze the view: it is the toolbar's trigger switch, so there is exactly one piece of state." With that switch now in the pane's own heading, the button was the same control drawn a third time. The status line that told users about it says "or switch the trigger off to stream" instead. The events pane's own `events_live` button is a different button on a different path — the file view restore — and is untouched. **And one silent regression this work uncovered.** The `trigger panel:` frame reading had been walking the *wrapper* box the app puts around the `.ui`'s panel (heading row + locked summary + panel) ever since the heading moved out of the file in the lock commit, so it reported `boxes=2 … search_inside=0/4` against a panel that was entirely correct. It reads `trigger_body` — the file's own panel — again, and now says so in its comment, because a reading that can silently start describing the wrong widget is the failure it exists to catch. Verified: `trigger panel: boxes=15 controls_inside=15/15 search_widgets=4/4 search_inside=4/4` (the documented shape, restored); `arm sensitive with the trigger off=0`; `trigger panel sensitive …=1`; `panes:`/`panel switches:`/`pane edits:` unchanged; `make test-ui` 14 files; zero `Gtk-CRITICAL`. |

fix: the trigger stays editable while it is off, and the locked pane says "stream"
Two things the lock got wrong, and they are the same mistake seen twice: trigger-off was treated as "the
pane is disabled".
**The configuration was unreachable exactly when it was wanted.** `on_trigger_toggled()` set the trigger
*body* insensitive with the mode — a rule carried over from the five-revealer sidebar, where a closed pane
had nothing to edit. A trigger is configured *before* it is switched on, so switching it off to change it,
or to read what it is set to, is the ordinary way to work. The body is now never disabled; only the
*cursors'* readout still is, which is the pane whose content has nothing to show with the instruments off.
**The locked pane described a trigger that was not running.** With trigger mode off the summary is one
line — `mode: stream (trigger off)` — because the four lines it used to show (signal, condition, level,
mode) describe a trigger that is not there. With the trigger on it is those four plus whatever is not at
its default (`noise band`, `HF reject`, `pre-trigger`, `hold-off`).
The reading changes with it: `trigger panel sensitive …=1` is now a **regression guard** rather than a
state — the trigger's body is always live, so a `0` there means the settings have been locked out again.
Verified in both states, from sessions whose only difference is `trigger_enabled`:
panes: trigger=locked signals=locked body_visible=0 summary='mode: stream (trigger off)'
panes: trigger=locked signals=locked body_visible=0 summary='signal: square | condition: window, rising | level: 0.3 .. 0.6 | mode: single | pre-trigger: 20 %'
trigger panel sensitive before the probe toggled it: 1
The locked trigger pane is 72 px with the trigger off and 192 px with it on. Docs: the invariants' rule
for which body is disabled and why the trigger's is not, the `summary`'s two forms with what each means,
the README's deviation note, and the second `panes:` line renamed to say what it is — the line as the
probe found it, because only a run whose *session* has the trigger off shows the stream form.

fix: the [edit] buttons' icons, and the locked pane says four lines not one
Two things the lock shipped wrong. **The "done" icon did not exist.** `emblem-ok-symbolic` is a breeze icon; Adwaita — which is what this app runs under — does not have it, so the button that leaves configuration mode drew a missing-image placeholder, i.e. nothing. Both names are now Adwaita's own: `document-edit-symbolic` (the pencil: edit) and `object-select-symbolic` (the check: done). This is exactly the silent failure `toolbar icons:` exists for, so the two `[edit]` buttons get the same treatment: `pane edits: locked=…(ok) config=…(ok)` is read by clicking into configuration mode and back, so one line carries both names and `gtk_icon_theme_has_icon()`'s verdict for each. The invariants now carry the rule, including the trap that a name found under `breeze` is not an answer. **The locked pane was too compact.** One line could not hold what a user opens the pane for, so it is now a small definition list: `signal`, `condition`, `level`, `mode` on four lines, and after that only the figures that are *not* at their defaults — `noise band`, `HF reject`, `pre-trigger`, `hold-off` — because a line reading "band 0" is a line that says nothing. The channel is resolved from the acquired channels and the condition quotes the figures its own shape reads (a width and its comparison, two levels, or a timeout), never one it ignores. The pane is ~192 px tall locked against 580 in configuration mode. One self-inflicted critical on the way: the probe read the summary with `gtk_label_get_text()`, and the container is a grid now — `Gtk-CRITICAL: assertion 'GTK_IS_LABEL (self)' failed`. The text comes from the sync that writes it instead. Verified: `pane edits: locked=document-edit-symbolic(ok) config=object-select-symbolic(ok)`; `panes: trigger=locked signals=locked body_visible=0 summary='signal: square | condition: window, falling | level: 0.3 .. 0.6 | mode: single | noise band: 0.2 | pre-trigger: 20 % | hold-off: 1000 ms'`; `make test-ui` 14 files; zero `Gtk-CRITICAL` and no missing icon. |

feat: locked panes for a returning user, and the trigger is persisted
Two panes, two modes. **Locked** is what a returning user gets: the trigger pane shows one line saying
what it is set to, the signal list shows only the signals that are on, and neither offers a control that
changes the configuration — each heading has an `[edit]` button (the Adwaita `emblem-system-symbolic`,
swapping to `emblem-ok-symbolic` in configuration mode) that flips its pane. A **first run** — no session
file for that source — never reaches `apply_layout()` and comes up in configuration mode, because
configuring the host is what a first run is for. The mode is a mode and not a setting, so it is
deliberately not persisted.
The locked signal list drops the rows of every signal that is off, which is the whole of "show active
signals": the list already filters on nothing, so the lock is one `continue`. With the rows go the acquire
tick, the overflow menu (Information, Calibrate…, Delete, rename) and the `MATH` divider's `+` — and the
colour chip stops being clickable, because choosing a colour is configuration too. Dragging a signal onto
a plot stays: that is which view shows what, not what the scope is set up to do.
**The trigger is persisted, settings and state both** — the settings *even while it is off*, which is the
point: a trigger configured once and switched off is still the trigger you come back to. `LayoutState`
gains fifteen flat `trigger_*` keys; the channel is stored by *name* (every rebuild renumbers the
channels, the model's own rule) and the two enumerations as **the words the panel's dropdowns show**,
because an index ties the file to a declaration order — the lesson `math_op_at()` already carries. The
words are shared with the panel now (`trigger_type_text()` and friends build the dropdown arrays), so the
two cannot drift.
Two ordering traps, both found by running it:
- **The channel name resolves twice over.** `rebuild_trigger_signals()` picks up
`App::pending_trigger_channel` when the stream arrives *after* the load, and `apply_trigger_layout()`
resolves it itself when the channels are already there — without the second path the name stayed
pending past the one rebuild that would have used it, and the trigger silently sat on channel 0
(`summary='pulse width · sine …'` where the session said `square`).
- **The trigger's state is applied by pressing the control, not by setting a flag**: the toggle is set
*outside* the `updating_panels` window `apply_layout()` uses, because a toggle set inside it emits
`toggled` into a handler that returns at once and nothing would happen — no arming, no events button,
no sensitivity.
Verified, in both modes and both directions:
panes: trigger=locked signals=locked body_visible=0 summary='window · square · 0.3…0.6 · 20 % pre'
panes: trigger=config signals=config body_visible=1 summary=''
signals panel: labels=2 list=1 rows=7 signals=2 math=4 divider=1
The locked trigger pane is 42 px tall against 580 unlocked. A hand-written session round-trips: every
value it named came back in the panel's own controls, `trigger=1/1` (the state arrived and the pane's
switch followed it), and the file the app wrote back carried all fifteen keys with the untouched ones at
their defaults. `[side-tab-probe] … advanced=4` on its documented recipe; `make test-ui` 14 files; zero
`Gtk-CRITICAL` and no missing icon.
Docs: the `panes:` reading with what each field means, the corrected `labels=` note (the panel's frame is
counted above the list now, because the heading sits in a heading row), the invariants for both the
persistence and the lock, the README's deviation note, and the removal of its claim that the trigger has
never been persisted — it is now, and the locked view is built from exactly that.

ui: each pane carries its own switch, the same one the header bar has
The trigger pane and the cursors pane now have a `GtkSwitch` in their heading, and it is *one control in
two places* with the header bar's button: both run the same action (`run_app_action()`), and
`sync_panel_switches()` re-reads each pair from the toolbar's state after any change, so clicking either
end moves both. A pane whose feature is off is disabled, which is exactly the state you need the switch
in, so it belongs *in* the pane rather than only in the toolbar.
Three things it needed:
- **The sensitive target moved to the pane's body.** A control inside an insensitive parent cannot be
clicked, so a switch that greyed out with its own pane could never turn it back on. `on_trigger_toggled`
and `on_cursors_toggled` now disable `trigger_body` / `cursors_body`, and so does the startup default;
the headings, with their switches, stay live.
- **The trigger's heading moved out of `trigger-panel.ui`** and is built in `build_trigger_panel()`,
which returns the heading row and the panel together. It has to be a sibling of the body for the switch
to stay usable, and keeping it in the file would have meant the file owning a widget the code must
arrange. The file's own panel is unchanged otherwise, so the `[trigger panel:]` counts still read.
- **A guard on the sync.** Setting a `GtkSwitch` emits `notify::active` for a programmatic write just as
it does for a click, so without `App::panel_switch_sync` the program's own write would come back as a
click and flip the feature again.
Readings, both directions in one line:
trigger panel sensitive before the probe toggled it: 0; … ; pane switches live while their panes are off=1
panel switches: trigger=1/1 cursors=1/1 drove_toolbar=1 (pane switch / header bar button)
`pane switches live …=1` is the design's point and is read before anything turns either pane on; `0` would
be a switch drawn, greyed and useless. The trigger pair is moved from the *toolbar* end and the cursors
pair from the *pane* end, so the line carries both halves of the sync, and `drove_toolbar=1` is the pane's
own switch having turned the cursors on with the button following. `trigger panel sensitive …=0` is the
body, not the panel.
Verified: the two lines above; `[side-tab-probe] … advanced=4`; `make test-ui` 14 files; zero
`Gtk-CRITICAL` and no missing icon. Docs: the new reading in `probe-readings.md` with what a `0` means,
the invariants bullet for the one-control-in-two-places rule and its two traps, the sidebar bullet's
sensitive target, and the README note on why the switch is in the pane.

ui: the tab glyphs are 32x16 pairs, drawn twice as wide
Each tab's icon is now two motifs side by side instead of one in a 16px square: the Measure pill is the two cursors beside the ruler, the Signals pill the trigger beside three channel rows. A 16px cell carries one motif — squeezing a pair into it is what turned both into a smear — and the pill has the width for a pair in a 300px column with two pills in it. Two measurements decided the size, both of which I had wrong from the outside: - **GDK paints an icon into a square box whatever the document's aspect.** `gtk_icon_theme_lookup_icon()` at 32 reports a `32x32` paintable for a 32x16 document, and librsvg fits it: rendered with aspect kept, the artwork comes out `32x16` inside a 32 request. So the pair is letterboxed, not stretched, and `pixel_size` 32 draws it at exactly the size it is written — 1:1, so the 2px bars stay crisp. A fractional scale (24 or 48) is what would blur them, which is why nothing here is drawn at one. - **The bar does not get taller for it.** `switcher: … icon=32x32 size=308x36`: 36px is what the switcher measured with 16px icons too, because the pill's fixed height takes a 32px box without growing. Both glyphs were drawn and then read back as ink maps rather than trusted: the first drafts came out at 39% and 44% ink (a blot beside the house 25–36%), and the tab bar is the last place a shape can be checked, since no screenshot works under this X setup. The finished two measure 23% and 33%. Verified: `switcher: policy=narrow pills=2 labels=0 names=2 icon=32x32 size=308x36`; `page icons: measure=udpscope-tab-measure-symbolic(ok) signals=udpscope-tab-signals-symbolic(ok)`; `[side-tab-probe] … advanced=4`; the Preferences dialog opened in the same run with no "not present"; `make test-ui` 14 files; zero `Gtk-CRITICAL`. The icons' GResource blob is 11661 bytes, still over the C99 limit, so the clean-build warning count stays four. |

test: a probe reads the hidden tab's accumulator, and the docs follow the tabs
`UDPSCOPE_PROBE_SIDE_TAB_MS` is the one reading for the design's §5 rule -- the statistics accumulator keeps running on the hidden page -- which nothing tested before. It switches to Measure, forces one pass so there is a baseline, switches away to Signals and reads again two seconds later: `advanced=4` is the assertion, and `advanced=0` is the defect where the accumulation is gated on the visible tab, which would leave a gap in min/max/avg for exactly as long as the trigger was on screen. Two things the probe has to do for itself, and getting either wrong makes `advanced=0` a lie about the tab: - it **enables its own signal**, because a signal starts disabled (enabling is what starts acquisition) and a probe that waited for one to be on would be reading another probe's side effects -- and `UDPSCOPE_ENABLE_ALL_MS` is not part of this run; - it **assigns that channel to a plot**, because a channel with no trace leaves the live window *still*, and a still window is precisely the state `update_measures()` is supposed to skip. Measured the hard way: without the assignment the probe read `advanced=0 min_n=0` with the view pinned and only four passes in twelve seconds, none of them the tab's doing. Docs: `probe-readings.md` gains the probe's entry and the signals panel's new shape (`rows == signals + 1 + math`, `divider=0` a list that lost its `+`), loses the whole `math panel:` entry, and follows `pane_sensitive=`, the gone `revealed=` field, the six toolbar controls and the tab-reading `m`/`g` key pairs. `verification.md` gains the probe's bullet and the re-measured warning figures. The invariants record the sidebar as a switcher above a stack with a scroller per page, the hidden-page trap that replaces the unrevealed-revealer one for it, that a feature's on/off is sensitivity rather than visibility, that a math channel is a row of the signal list, and that a cursors-off readout blanks to `--` with the panel left on screen. `shortcuts.ui` and the help page's window and sidebar bullets stop describing five revealers. The README records the deviation from `SPECS.md` that names the panes as separate collapsible sections. Verified: `[side-tab-probe] page=signals rows=4 accums=4 advanced=4 min_n=16`; `signals panel: labels=2 list=1 rows=9 signals=4 math=4 divider=1`; `panels: … (page_current=1) (sensitive=0) switcher=1`; `toolbar icons:` six controls with every name `(ok)`, with the Preferences dialog opened in the same run; zero `Gtk-CRITICAL` and no missing icon. |

fix: five review findings on the tabbed-sidebar commit
Finding 2 — four builder ids had no null check. `side_stack`,
`side_switcher`, `measure_page` and `signals_page` were resolved at
lines 4709-4712, well past the skeleton null-guard. A typo in the `.ui`
would have been a silent segfault. The four resolutions are moved to
the guard block and added to its condition, in the same form the guard
already uses.
Finding 3 — the 'editable focused: m refused' leg of keys_probe was
deleted instead of ported. It is restored, adapted for the new
behaviour: 'm' now selects the Measure tab instead of toggling a pane,
so the refusal is observed as the side_tab name being unchanged across
the synthesised key, not as a toggle that did not flip. The dump line
keeps its existing name and `refused=` field so probe-readings.md:601
still describes it.
Finding 4 — `exit_probe_step3` assigned `sidebar_shown` to both
`dbg_side_visible` and `dbg_side_column_after_hide`, and the panels:
dump line read the wrong one (dbg_side_visible) for its `(visible=)`
field. Two readings that cannot disagree diagnose nothing. Resolved
by making `panels:` read `dbg_side_column_after_hide` and removing the
redundant `dbg_side_visible` field.
Finding 5 — the three-line rationale comment above `reload_file_view`
in `apply_math_channels` was removed by the commit under review.
Nothing it said became untrue. Restored verbatim from

ui: the sidebar is two tabs, and a toggle disables its pane
Replace the sidebar's five-panel scrolling column with an AdwViewStack carrying two pages — Measure (cursors + measurements) and Signals (trigger + math + channel list) — with an AdwViewSwitcher above it. The trigger and cursors toggles change from "reveal/hide my pane" to "enable/disable my feature, leaving the pane insensitive", following the disable-not-hide principle. The keys probe loses a duplicate registration that was toggling the sidebar back on before the exit probe captured its state; the exit-probe captures now read adw_overlay_split_view_get_show_ sidebar() instead of gtk_widget_get_visible(), which AdwOverlaySplitView never changes.

fix: a file view states its pin once, so the axis holds still
`set_data_pin()` takes a range and `pin_event_window()` a pre/post split; the file view handed the split to both. On a recording whose stamps start before zero that stored a pin that no longer held the data, so every second frame found the pin wrong and stated it in full again -- rewriting the group's x range and discarding the user's gesture with it. The view alternated between the file's span and the corrupted one at the frame rate: a flicker in which no pan, zoom or click survived. `[drop-probe]` now reports the view and the count of pin statements, which must stay at two for a whole run.

test: the noise probe reads the de-noise node, and the math probe builds one
The probe gains a staged chain rather than one phase, and the schedule moves with it: `UDPSCOPE_PROBE_NOISE_MS` now times the *setup* stage, which installs the de-noise graph through `apply_math_channels()` -- a structural rebuild that replaces the buffer and drops its history -- five seconds before anything scans it. The legs and the five measurements then run at about 10.5 s, and the reading that says the median rejected every impulse at 15.5 s, so the documented run needs a 20 s mock and an 18 s exit. The de-noise channel is installed **disabled** and enabled only at 13 s, for its own reading. An acquired channel is a share of the ring, so a fifth one shortens every channel's retained span -- and the six `BufferSearch` leg counts and `pkpk bare` are all peaks and counts *of that window*. Installing it enabled (as the plan had it) moved `bare` from 49 to 21, `ratio` from 7.00 to 3.00 and `pkpk bare` from 2.988 to 2.488, i.e. it would have rewritten the older feature's documented proof to record a regression that is not one. With it enabled only at the end, every reading from Tasks 4 and 8 is bit-for-bit what the doc records, and the new line reads `denoise raw=2.987696/1 denoised=2.000000/1 ratio=0.669 channels=1` -- `denoised` exactly the clean sine's 2.0, which is the claim the node makes. Two other findings, both folded in: a derived channel whose source is switched off through the panel's checkbox follows it off and does *not* come back when the source returns (the enable-all probe's last act switches `sine` off at ~3 s), and the probes reload leftover math channels from `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/udpscope`, which is why a `setup channels=` count above 1 means an earlier run's session, not a defect. `math_probe` gains a third channel with a `DeNoise` node so the editor's median row is built and synced on a baseline run: `3 math channels on 'sine' and 'noise'`, every other line as before, `math cost: 103.3 ns/slot` (one reading of the same path). verification.md: the recipe, and why the two stages may not be collapsed -- a probe that rebuilt the buffer under its own legs reads `bare=0` and looks like a broken comparator. Also that the noise and math probes may not share a run: both write `app.math`. |

ui: the node editor offers the de-noise node and persists its window
The form gains a `median samples` row, shown only for `DeNoise`; the corner row widens to anything that reads `fc` (`math_op_uses_fc()`) while `q` stays band-pass-only, and the wiring row keeps its place at the end so the form's order is unchanged for every existing op. The session format gains a thirteenth field, `med_n`, after `y`. A twelve-field node -- a file written before this node existed -- still loads, with `med_n` left at the struct's default, which is what such a file meant; the reader's `return number(...) && ...` chain had to become a guarded sequence so the thirteenth field could be read conditionally. The math probe enables the channel it builds its graphs from, the same self-sufficiency rule the noise and measurement probes already follow: `enable_all_probe` ends by switching one signal off, and with `sine` gone the graphs landed on `square`, changing a documented line for reasons unrelated to the math. Readings: `[math-probe] 2 math channels on 'sine' and 'noise'`, `pane add: 'math3' sources 'sine'`, `graph edit: stored_slots 31000 -> 32000`, `dialog build: nodes=2, output after add=1` and the rest of the suite unchanged; no `Gtk-CRITICAL`. |

test: the noise probe reads a measurement's band and HF reject
Five measurements on the same spiked `sine`, asking for corners 0, 50, 0, 0, 50 on one
channel: two windows under the (channel, fc) key, which is what exercises it.
measure pkpk bare noise=10.0 hf=0.0 value=2.987692 the stimulus, impulses included
measure pkpk hf noise=10.0 hf=50.0 value=1.990075 the waveform: pass one is filtered
measure period noband noise=0.0 hf=0.0 value=0.021290 supposed to be WRONG -- the control
measure period band noise=25.0 hf=0.0 value=0.200000 the band alone
measure period hf noise=0.0 hf=50.0 value=0.200000 the reject alone
measure windows=2 the corner is part of the key
`pkpk hf` is the reading that says the filter reached *pass one* and not only pass two; a
value near 3 means it did not. `period noband` is deliberately the defect the band exists to
fix, and a future reader who "fixes" it has removed the check.
The band leg asks for **25 %** rather than the 10 % default, and that is arithmetic rather
than a workaround: the band is a share of the *window's* peak-to-peak, which with the
impulses in it is about 3, so 10 % is a half-band of 0.3 -- less than the 0.5 an impulse
moves the signal by. `MeasureOptions::noise_pct`'s own rationale says 10 % holds to a 0.3
interferer, and this mock's is 0.5, so the default could not clear it. The default band is
what the `period noband` and `period hf` legs are about.
verification.md now says the noise and measurement probes must not share a run: both push
onto `app.measures` and the later one would read the earlier one's rows.

ui: a measurement's noise band and HF reject are settable and persisted
Two rows in the measure dialog, built the way the threshold and side rows are and appended
beside them: the band as a percentage of the window's own peak-to-peak (the unit the engine
takes), the corner in Hz with 0 off. They are seeded when editing, shown only where they do
something -- the band for the crossing types, since it moves the edge decision and nothing
else, the reject for all of them, since it sits before both walks -- and read into
`MeasureOptions` on apply.
They persist as two *named* keys, `noise` and `hf`, on the same `o <<` chain as the keys
beside them and read back through the same keyed reader, so a session written before this
change loads with 10.0 and 0.0: today's behaviour exactly, with no version check.
[configs] now proves the round trip rather than assuming it. The probe sets the first
measurement's band and corner to 7.5 and 250 before saving, so a key that never reached the
file reads back as the defaults:
[configs] round trip read=1 comment='written by the configs probe' ... measures=4 math=0 noise=7.5 hf=250
The rest of that line is unchanged, and the run is free of Gtk-CRITICAL.

perf: the measurements pane keys its shared walks by channel and HF corner
The pane shared its two walks per *channel*, but the HF corner is a per-measurement
setting: two measurements on one signal at different corners read two different signals
and cannot share a walk. `App::MeasureWindow` therefore carries `channel` and `fc`, the
container is a vector, and the grouping loop matches on both -- keeping its dedupe of the
level accumulators by `(pct, noise)`, since a type that does not read the band must not
split an accumulator over it.
Each window carries two filters, one per walk: they are separate walks, so separate state.
A filtered window also stops using the LOD pyramid, which one `if` does -- leaving
`buckets` empty makes `bulk_from == bulk_to == n`, so the raw walk covers the window and
`lo_search`/`hi_search` stay 0, which makes the pinning pass a no-op. Nothing downstream
needs to know.
The readout loop looks its window up by index rather than by channel, which is what the
`(channel, fc)` key needs.
The documented measurement baseline is unchanged, and it is the assertion:
[measure-trace] average=0.000000 top=0.636620 peak to peak=2.000000 amplitude=1.000000
[udpscope] measure cost: ... covered=75378013 buckets=1177164 raw=159674 (0.2%)
`top` is 2/pi to the digit -- the one reading a band leaking into the sums would move --
and `raw` at 0.2 % of `covered` says the fast path is still being used on an unfiltered
window.
The measure probe now enables `sine` itself, as the noise probe does: `enable_all_probe`
ends by switching a signal off, and with `sine` gone the probe measured `square`, where
`top` is 1.0 and the baseline above is unreachable.

test: the noise probe reads the trigger's band and HF reject
Six legs over one retained buffer, each a full rising-edge search through `BufferSearch` at
level 0, run back to back without yielding so every leg sees the same samples: the bare
comparator on a spiked sine, a 0.8 band, a 50 Hz reject, both, and the reject's group delay
on `square` -- which carries no impulses, so a one-pole's crossing of zero after a step is
exactly `tau*ln2` and the delay is an exact prediction rather than a coincidence.
trigger band: bare=49/2 band=7/2 ratio=7.00
trigger hf: hf=7/2 band+hf=7/2 band=7
trigger delay: clean=4 filtered=4 delay=0.002206 want=0.002206 ratio=1.000
`ratio >= 5`, both HF legs within 2 of the band, `ratio` between 0.7 and 1.4, `state=2` on
every leg, no Gtk-CRITICAL. `bare` and `band` are proportional to the retained buffer, so
neither is a fixed number; the ratios and the agreement between legs are the assertions.
The probe enables the signals it measures itself rather than relying on another probe's side
effects -- `enable_all_probe` ends by switching one off again, which is how `sine` was missing
from the first run of this one -- and arms in two phases because that enable is a structural
change that replaces the store, so the ring has to fill before there is anything to search.
Its "no stream" line now names the channels that *are* there: an index alone says a probe
found nothing, not what it saw.

perf: a frozen frame is not re-rendered sixty times a second
The tick queued a GL render unconditionally. In `Held` and `Paused` the rows are bound to an immutable snapshot on a pinned axis, so a frame in which none of the picture's own terms moved is the same frame again. The gate keys on a coarse signature of what a frozen view can be re-framed by, opens for `kSettleRenders` frames on a change because the figure lays out per render, and has a floor that renders anyway every few ticks. The layout editor is excluded: its buttons are placed from the last frame's rects, so a skipped frame there is a stale widget rather than a stale picture. `skips=` in the probe dump is the reading.

feat: a signal switched off switches its dependent math channels off too
A derived channel cannot be computed from a signal nobody acquires: `Source` resolves to a
*channel*, and a disabled signal has none -- so a channel that reads one silently computed
nothing, which is what "all math signals depending on it do not compute anymore" looked like
from outside.
Rather than leave it enabled and blank, the channels that read the signal follow it off:
`disable_dependent_math_channels()` walks the graphs to a **fixpoint**, because one math
channel may name another, and the switch goes through the same path the pane's own toggle
uses -- `MathChannel::enabled` then `apply_math_channels()`, the single writer -- so the
pane's switches follow. Their traces leave the plots with the signal's, and the notice says
both halves.
The channels that do *not* read it are untouched, which is the assertion's other half:
[enable-all-probe] switched 'sine' off: traces_left=0 (want 0)
math_off=[math x2,math3] math_on=[math lp]
notice=''sine' is off: 1 trace left the plots; math off: math x2 and 1 more'
`math x2` and `math3` both source `sine`; `math lp` sources `noise` and stays on. The probe's
switch step now runs late enough that a math probe armed behind it has installed its graphs,
which is why the earlier reading was empty -- `app.math` had nothing in it yet, not
"no dependants".
Re-enabling the signal does not switch them back on, for the same reason it does not restore
the traces: that is the user's decision, and the rule is written down in
invariants-math-channels.md.
