gramps ab29ec801d Web source: container == content — element grid + selection box sized to the cropped frame's canvas extent
- FindContentBounds already trimmed the bitmap; the grid/box still rendered at the uncropped user
  size, so Fill stretched the tight widget into a bigger frame = dead-between-content-and-border.
- ContentCanvasSize maps the crop rect to canvas units (1920/pixW per axis, DPI-correct) and the
  preview event now carries (bitmap, canvasW, canvasH).
- OnWebView2PreviewBitmapChanged sets the element Width/Height to that size; the grid and the
  SelectionOverlay (both bound to the element's Width/Height) now equal the widget exactly.
- IsPreviewDragging (set in MainWindow drag/resize) suppresses auto-fit mid-gesture.
- Tests 10/10 (alpha bounds, canvas-size mapping incl. DPI, control size); 0 warnings.

One task at a time. Updated before every commit touching that task: current iteration + why the last one failed. On task complete, committed AND pushed → truncate to this stub. A new task does NOT seed this file until its first failure.

Task (active — committed 582d1f4, NOT pushed, awaiting creator verification)

Stream widget bounding box: hug the widget on all four sides, pinned to canvas (0,0).

Iterations that failed

  1. e917c41 — fixed 1920×1080 viewport + Stretch="Uniform" + startup registration. Failed: Uniform letterboxed the 16:9 canvas into arbitrary‑sized boxes → asymmetric dead padding read as a "gap". Lesson: Fill the box with the cropped frame, never Uniform.
  2. 9d4103c — per‑document CSS reset (html/body width/height 100%) + (0,0) anchor. Failed ("enlarged the gap"): forcing dimensions overrode the widget's own layout and expanded the dead space. Lesson: inject only overflow:hidden + transparent background — never set sizes.
  3. 8d793af — viewport == element‑box size + Stretch="Fill". Failed (janky / truncating / scrollbars): hosting at the box size clips full‑bleed widgets to their upper‑left chunk, and tracking the box reflows the page on drag. Lesson: render at a fixed canvas size, never track the box.
  4. f39ebd9 — crop capture to scrollWidth/scrollHeight bounds + (0,0) + Fill. Partially passed (panel fixes 1a/1b/4 confirmed) but the box stayed loose; the apparent "tight right/bottom" was just the small‑viewport clip edge. ROOT CAUSE: the crop never ran. The script returned JSON.stringify(...) (a string); ExecuteScriptAsync JSON‑encodes every result, so the JSON was double‑encoded → JsonDocument.Parse got a string node → GetProperty threw → try/catch swallowed → bounds unset → no crop. Lesson: return a real JS object, never a stringified one. Also: scroll extents ≠ widget rect (they include page margins).
  5. 70fe2b8 — fixed canvas‑size viewport (1920×1080) + crop + Fill. Image render/resize became solid (creator confirmed) but the box still gapped right/bottom and wasn't 0,0. Same silent JSON bug — the crop still never executed — and the measure was scroll extents regardless. Lesson: verify declared mechanics actually execute; assume nothing ran.

Current iteration (web bounding box — UNCOMMITTED, verification pending)

CONTAINER == CONTENT. The element grid and the selection box now SIZE to the cropped frame: WebView2Manager.ContentCanvasSize maps the alpha-crop pixel rect to MASTER CANVAS units (1920/pixW per axis, DPI-correct) and the preview event carries it; MainViewModel sets the Source.Width/Height (the grid + SelectionOverlay bindings) to that size. No Fill-stretching of a cropped bitmap into a larger frame — the box IS the widget. Auto-fit is suppressed while the drag/resize gesture is active (IsPreviewDragging, set by MainWindow code-behind).

Iteration that just failed (bccdb48 — alpha crop, but container stayed at Source.Width/Height)

Crop trimmed the bitmap but the element grid/box still rendered at the UNcropped user-set size, so Fill stretched the tight widget across a larger frame and dead space floated between content bounds and the selection border. Lesson: fixing the BITMAP is not fixing the BOX — the layout container must match the cropped dimensions or the gap persists by construction.
