Tidy Layout
- Box heights are settled in left-to-right and right-to-left sweeps so each
box lines its slot up with the other end of its wires; gaps above the
minimum are free, and columns are re-sorted to untangle crossings.
- A wire that skips columns takes a placeholder in each column it crosses,
so boxes are ordered and spaced around it.
- A box nothing feeds is held back far enough left that wires from further
left always enter higher slots of the same target.
Wire routing
- Only the short stubs at a wire's two slots may pass close to a box; the
rest of every run keeps its clearance, so no wire grazes a box edge. A link
with no clear route is shown as knobs.
- Lanes that cross no other wire are tried first; climbing wires route top
source first, falling ones bottom first, and a deferred wire defers the
rest of its gap so lanes keep that order.

- The top/left margin no box may enter is grey and ungridded, so the white
sheet starts where boxes can actually be placed.
- Saving/unsaved state no longer resets the canvas to white: the sheet goes
white/pink and the area around it grey/greyish pink.

- Tidy Layout lays linked boxes out left to right by signal flow, in as few
columns as the longest chain allows; feedback loops are cut where they run
backwards, and sources sit just before the boxes they feed.
- Boxes with no link on the open sheet go to the bottom of the first column,
alphabetically.
- A box that wires skipping its column would cross is pushed down below them.
- The wiresheet is fixed at meta's 255-step reach; outside it is light grey.
Dragging keeps a box's top-left corner on the sheet.
- Sox write_i4 wraps to signed, so meta with x >= 128 reaches the device.

Preference 'Lazy loading on connect?' (on by default). Off reads the whole app

16 s on an Orion.

Off reads the whole app from app.sab when connecting. Read at each connect, so a
change takes effect on the next one.

Saves the app on the device, reads app.sab and fills the Sox cache with the tree,
config and links in one go: 8 s instead of 116 s for 230 components on a P-ION,
0.9 s instead of 16 s for 194 on an Orion. Sox keeps the cache current from
there as before. On any failure, or when app.sab does not match the running
tree, it falls back to lazy loading. A sheet's first open reads only runtime
values; a tree expand with nothing to load no longer rebuilds the DOM.

With a wiresheet open, disconnecting first unsubscribed its components and
waited for the reply, which a restarting device never sends, so the editor
froze until the request timed out. After restart, reboot, quit or hibernate
the session is now closed without asking the device anything; a plain
Disconnect still unsubscribes first.

The device goes down without answering, so the editor waited out the 30 s
Sox timeout before dropping the session. The invoke now waits 3 s (time for
DASP to resend it once) and the editor disconnects either way; an error
reply from the device is still reported and keeps the connection. Covers the

A kits step after the zip is chosen, laid out as the Manage Kits panel:
installed kits (what the app needs, greyed), installed but not used, kits
available on the computer, not supported; the Action cell offers Keep at /
Upgrade to / Downgrade to / Add at / REMOVE; Upgrade all kits to latest
version. Kits not in the backup can be added, with their dependencies.
The ticked kits make app.sab's schema (encode_sax takes the kit list, as
Ontrol's PutApp rewrites it). When they are not the device's kits, or
Rebuild kits.scode is ticked, kits.scode is built for them with Ontrol's
sedonac from the Niagara install, after checking the natives the kits call
against the device's platform manifest (PutApp.checkNativeCompatibility).
- kit_build.py: platform manifest lookup, native check, sedonac run
- palette.kit_versions: a checksum released more than once stands for its
highest version (ontrolPlatform 1.0.1, not 1.0.0)
- palette.unsupported_kits takes the kit list to judge against
- sab_app: a type from a kit the app does not list is a clear error
Tested on a P-ION: a rebuild for its own kits is byte-identical to the one
it runs; adding and then removing the logic kit both come back running.

Right-click a component (or the app) with two or more children to move them
up and down; OK applies the new order, which is the order they run in. On a
device the order goes there first via Sox reorder, checked against the
device's children, and the file is left alone if it is refused. Undoable.
Also: device host in editor.properties.

Follows Ontrol's Workbench tool (BPutWithFilesTool / PutApp): the backup's
app.sax is encoded for the device's kits and put as app.sab.writing, renamed
to app.sab.stage; the platform service's deleteFile clears fonts/* and
images/*, then images, fonts (from Sedona home's bank, in the device's cut)
and the boot logo go. The zip is checked against the device first: same
platform (Orion, Rion or P-ION, from the platform id), and kits the device
can load. Falls back to the backup's app.sab, with its kits.scode if needed.
- sab_app.encode_sax: .sax -> .sab, ported from Py_sab2sax with Java's value
parsing (fromLiteral, nullbool/nullfloat, Integer.decode); byte-identical
to sedonac on the saved backups
- app_backup.native_image: port of OntOxImageUtil's png -> native .bin
- sox.put_file / rename_file
- Get with Files: Orion's boot logo is system/logo.jpg
- A restart that goes unanswered is taken as the device going down

Ctrl+click toggles a link in the selection; Del or the link popup deletes
every selected link after one confirmation, as a single undoable step.
On a device, links the device refuses stay and are named in one warning.

Wires now round their bends, hop over the wires they cross, and show a dot
where wires from one output split. Wires sharing a pin may share a trunk.
Routes keep one grid square from a box's top and bottom and two from its
sides, never turn closer than two squares beside a box, and keep half a
square from other wires. The runs pinned to every slot are claimed before
any wire is routed, so an early wire no longer lays its run along a row a
later slot has to leave by. A wire that cannot fit the grid spacing falls
back to the old tighter one rather than turning into knobs.
The styling geometry lives in wire_style.py; draw_links is split into
collecting, routing and painting around a WireJob dataclass.

Opening a sheet on a device rebuilds the DOM, so every element is new and
the history, which matched by identity, pruned each sheet as soon as it was
recorded. On a device entries now match by id, and Back reopens a view on
the current element rather than the snapshot it was recorded with.

Ctrl+click picks out several boxes on the sheet, and Ctrl/Shift+click several
rows in the tree. Copies are named on from their original (Add1 -> Add2), sit
one step right and down, and keep the links that ran between the copied
components. One undo step; on a device the originals are read back in full
and the copies made there.

A palette drag dropped on a tree row adds the component inside that row's
component, placed under its lowest child. The row under the pointer is
highlighted, and resting on a collapsed branch opens it, loading it from
the device when live without moving the selection or the open sheet.

The chosen kit is remembered in editor.properties [Palette]; a file without it

Redo is gone in both file and device mode: the Edit menu entry, Ctrl/Cmd+Y
and Ctrl/Cmd+Shift+Z, and the redo stack. An undone step is dropped.
Undoing past the last save now leaves the saved depth unreachable, so a
new edit cannot be mistaken for the saved state.
Renames on a device are undoable: LiveRenameCommand renames back on the
device first, and warns and clears history if the device refuses.

Right-clicking a tree row selects it, and on a device that reopens the
sheet and rebuilds the DOM after the popup captured the row's element.
Delete then ran on a stale element: the device delete went through but
no undo step was recorded. Popup actions now look the component up by
id when they run.

Uses LiveComponentCommand, so undoing a delete puts the user back on
the device with its exact cred, perm and prov.

Undo and redo now work against a connected device; each step is sent
there through Sox. Deleting a component first reads its whole subtree
back (config, unloaded children, links, place among siblings) so undo
can recreate it; recreated components take new device ids, which the
DOM elements pick up so later steps still reach them. Binary Buf
config (a user's cred) is read with read_prop, since the cache decodes
every Buf as a Str. Moves, tidy layout, and Properties / page editor /
user edits record only what the device accepted.
A step that does not fully reach the device warns and clears the
history. History is also cleared on every view change in live mode,
as opening a sheet rebuilds the DOM from the device.

The final vertical run into an input slot now stands at least
1.5 * GRID_SIZE in front of the box, so the arrowhead sits on a straight

Tested on a P-ION (fw 1.32) at 192.168.1.252 with everything else as
in 5acca52: with the 0x81 header forced on, the app save is answered
but the app.sab file open never is, and the device drops off the
network. Without it, the same Get with File works.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The save and file-open requests used their own fixed resend intervals
(5 s / 15 s) and the hello asked for 256-byte packets. Ontrol's Sedona
Java stack does neither and works with the P-ION: the standard backoff
(1, 2, 4, 8 s) sends a busy device a few copies with the same seqNum,
which its receive window drops. Both are removed.
Also fixes a race in SendWindow.send(): the packet entered the window
before its payload and sent_time were set, so housekeeping could resend
it with an empty payload, and the device would then drop the real one
as a duplicate.
Tested on a P-ION at 192.168.1.252, App > Get with File: save 3.2 s
(2 resends), app.sab + kits.scode in 11.3 s with 500-byte chunks
(was 14.6 s at 256), device stayed up, files identical to a 256-byte
backup.

A real P-ION (fw 1.32) restarted on every Sox file get. Ontrol's Niagara 4
driver gets app.sab from the same device, so its settings are copied:
- DASP hello asks for 256-byte packets (idealMax/absMax), so file chunks
are 238 bytes
- the message-length header (0x81) goes to Orion only, decided once the
platform id is read
- the app is saved on the device before app.sab is read, the save resent
every 5 s rather than 1 s (a P-ION save takes 2-3+ s)
- the file open is resent every 15 s; DASP gains a per-packet resend
interval for this
Tested on a P-ION at 192.168.1.252: save 3.2 s, app.sab + kits.scode +
app.sax in 15.8 s, no resends, device stayed up. The unsaved-changes
question became a notice, since the app is now always saved first.

Reads app.sab and kits.scode over Sox file transfer, decodes app.sab to
app.sax (byte-identical to sedonac), and on Orion/Rion also fetches the
images and fonts the app names, with their sources from Sedona home's
banks. Offers to save the app on the device first when it is dirty, and
asks where to save with <Sedona home>/store/apps and
app-<device>-<app>-<timestamp>.zip filled in.
DASP trace lines are now printed by their own thread: printing from the
network threads to an unread stdout pipe blocked the receiver and made
file transfers time out.

Opening a file now drops the live connection once a file is chosen, without

Hovering a slot row highlights the half under the pointer and shows a
direction cursor. Pressing on a slot drags a rubber band; dropping on
another slot links them, dropping on a title bar opens the Link dialog
with the dragged slot preselected, and a no-entry cursor marks a slot
that would refuse the link. A right click that never moves still opens
the context menu.
The palette now leaves out types whose facets carry @palette=false, and
kits with nothing placeable left.
Also points the default device host at 192.168.1.251.

The schema built from a Sox session spelled checksums as signed decimals,
so no kit matched a manifest: Installed showed raw checksums and Action
read "Keep at checksum ...". They are now 8 hex digits like a .sax file,
and checksums compare regardless of zero-padding.
A device session only loads folders as they are opened, so only sys
counted as used. Used kits now come from the whole component tree, read
one request at a time so a small controller is not flooded into dropping
the session.

Rename is offered from both the canvas and the navigation tree. Names are
checked against Sedona's Component.checkName rules (1-7 ASCII chars, a
letter first, then letters, digits or '_') and must be unique among
siblings. In file mode link paths through the old name are rewritten and
the rename is one undo step; in live mode it goes to the device via Sox
and warns if the device rejects it.

In live mode the device is now written first and the document only takes
what the device accepted. Every live_hooks failure records a reason, and
warn_failure() shows it in a dialog and the status bar instead of failing
silently.
- Move, properties, OX page editor: rejected values are rolled back and listed
- Add/remove link: no longer edits the DOM alone when an end can't be resolved
- Add/delete component: report why the device refused
- Tidy Layout: sends each new position to the device, reverts refusals,
marks the document dirty, and pushes no undo step in live mode
- User Manager: add (one Sox add carrying cred/perm/prov), edit and delete
now go to the device
- Binary Buf slots (e.g. User.cred) are sent as Buf bytes, not as Str text
- Bump version to 0.0.0.136

The root tree row now names the app component, "app (<host:port>)" or
"app (<file>)", and offers Properties from its context menu and on
double-click. The live DOM's <app> element now carries its type and slot
values, and the refresh-by-id lookup finds it, so the view shows real
sys::App values.

The device builds the schema and version replies in a fixed 512-byte
packet and drops whatever does not fit. Read strings defensively, recover
a cut-off checksum from the one local manifest matching its prefix, and
fail with a clear message when the kit list cannot be recovered.
