-**The "Text" tab** (always visible, 2026-08-24 revision): a white 30px tab with rotated YouTube-red "Text" sits on the right edge of the preview, vertically centered — **shown regardless of login/stream state** (creator decision; original IsLive gating removed same day). Click slides out a 320px dark drawer over the preview's right edge (200ms CubicEase on `Width`, `BroadcastForm.IsDrawerOpen` drives it; ✕ closes). The Update button still greys until `CurrentBroadcastId` exists.

Click **toggles** the drawer (`ToggleDrawerCommand`); any left-click outside the form also collapses it (`Window_PreviewMouseLeftButtonDown` checks `TextPullOutHost` ancestry), as does the ✕.
