Part of #659 (lane 4 review).

Decision

The owner confirmed the GM's shelf stays freeform, not look.html's reflowing grid, and made sideways scrolling an officially supported way to get more room. This came from the question of what happens when a GM preps on a 4K monitor and plays on a 1080p one. The variable turns out to be CSS width, not resolution: a 4K monitor at 200% scaling is exactly as wide as a 1080p one. Card positions were already screen-independent. What was missing was deliberate scrolling. Today the whole page scrolls rather than the board, and nothing tells the GM a card is off to the right.

Catalogue

D37 in the decisions table and a Decided (D37) line on TABLE-1.
IS-325: the board scrolls within itself and grows when a card is dragged past its edge.
IS-326: off-screen cards are counted at the edge.
IS-327: "see the whole board" is an optional overview, not the default.
Rebuilt: 1,596 rows on 102 surfaces.

Lane 4

A new still, Prepped on a wide screen, played on a narrow one, shows the same board on a laptop: five cards fit, and a marker counts the two further right.
The TABLE-1 note and the open section now record D37 as settled.

What rendering caught

Table stills took the page's accent in the light theme. The sweep, the phone sweep and the new canvas sit outside tableFrame and lacked the tablemode class. "review it" and the on-the-table labels were dark blue on navy. This was already live in lane 4's first version.
Stacked headings. A screen that opens straight into an h3 stacked the h2, h3 and body with no space between them. This affected lane 3 as well; fixed in shell.css.

Feedback-site tests: 92 passed.

docs(catalogue): D37 — the shelf is a freeform canvas that may outgrow the screen (#659 ) b9875451f6

The owner confirmed the GM's shelf stays freeform (not look.html's
reflowing grid) and made sideways scrolling an officially supported way
to get more room. Recorded as D37 in the decisions table and on the
TABLE-1 header, with three new features: the board scrolls within itself
and grows when a card is dragged past its edge (IS-325), off-screen cards
are counted at the edge (IS-326), and "see the whole board" is an
optional overview rather than the default (IS-327).

Adds a still of the board prepped on a wide screen and played on a
narrow one: positions unchanged, the board scrolls within itself, and the
two cards past the right edge are counted by a marker. The TABLE-1 note
and the open section now record D37 as settled.

Rendering caught two faults. The Table stills outside tableFrame (the
sweep, the phone sweep, the new canvas) lacked the tablemode class, so
in the light theme they took the page's accent: dark blue on navy. And a
screen that opens straight into an h3 stacked h2, h3 and body with no
space between them, in lane 3 as well as lane 4.
