Creator directive, 2026-11-01. Settings stopped being a centred modal.
- **Drawer** (Controls/SettingsDrawer): hosted in PreviewPane's pull-out stack, 320px, the same
animated-width pattern as Stream Settings / YPP / Socials / TEST, opened by the gear rail tab
on a single left click. SettingsDrawerOpen is exclusive with the other four, both directions.
This also removes the modal's MaxHeight-700 scroll problem for good: the drawer is the height
of the preview.
- **Categories**: headings with controls indented beneath them. Zoom now owns *Zoom view shape*
(Circle / Phone / Tablet) and *Zoom box follows*; Recordings, Brand logo and Scene transition
are their own categories.
- **The app menu moved to the LlamaCasty wordmark** (right-click → Report Bug / Feature Request /
About). Left-click still opens About. The gear tab no longer carries a menu at all, so clicking
it does exactly one thing.
OverlayHost keeps only the Bug / Feature / About panels; its brand-logo handlers and the dev-panel
injection moved with the settings block. BrandLogoPreviewTests follows the control (same assertions,
new path). Release 0 warnings; 15 tests pass across brand logo, zoom, entitlement and preview
history.
The creator (2026-10-30): the brand-logo field in App Settings showed only a file NAME, so a
myopic user could not confirm which picture was set. Now a 28x28 thumbnail sits left of the
field showing the actual image, and hovering it opens an enlarged copy (up to 420x320) beside
the panel with the file name underneath. A click collapses it; moving the pointer away closes
it, unless the pointer walked onto the popup itself, where it stays so the creator can look
closely.
Mechanics:
- `MainViewModel.BrandLogoPreviewImage` decodes the stored asset ONCE and freezes it, so the
thumbnail and the enlargement share one bitmap and no dispatcher hop is needed. A corrupt
image returns null instead of taking the dialog down.
- The thumbnail is hidden when no image is set (NotNullToVis), so there is nothing to hover and
no empty frame can appear.
- The popup is a separate window: WPF refuses to open one until its placement target is in a
live visual tree, which is why the test hosts the control in a real window rather than
asserting on a detached control.
Guard: BrandLogoPreviewTests — the wiring (image binding, the no-image gate, the four gesture
handlers, the readable enlargement size) and the control's open/close behaviour.
