Three things moved the viewport independently — the shape-fit effect, focusNode,
and React Flow's own fitView prop — so a fourth for "centre the node I just
selected" would have been a fourth party to the argument. There is one effect
now, and which branch it takes is decided by what changed rather than by what is
true: selecting a node brings that node into the lane the panel leaves, and
every other change — new wiring, a new endpoint, a panel opening — re-fits the
whole flow into the same lane. A selection centres once, so the port edits that
follow re-fit around it, which is what makes a new edge's far end visible.
The refit triggers on the edge count, not the bindings key: that key changes on
every keystroke in a message-name field, and refitting per character is not what
"an edge was created" means.
renderedNodes overwrote xyflow's own `selected` flag, so a box-selection of
several nodes was invisible even though delete and copy acted on all of them.
The logs panel was a popover anchored on its own button, which is why it sat off
centre, hugged the button and closed on any outside click. It is a plain surface
above the dock now, and the button is stateful. Escape still closes it.
Expanding a node's editor gives the panel the whole inset and puts the code on
the left with the settings beside it, while the toolbar and the flow name
translate off screen. Narrowing the window past `md` gives the room back — the
sheet it becomes has no second column to hold.
The zoom buttons are gone: there is a mouse, or there is a pinch.

A panel is one screen and the ordered set of whole dashboards it shows, so a
hallway tablet and a workshop tablet carry different sets without either
dashboard knowing about the other. More than one and the device draws a rail
to switch between them — the same rail the editor puts on screen, because the
wall has it and it takes room off the canvas.
A screen has no keyboard, so it pairs rather than logs in: it shows a
six-character code, somebody approves it against a panel from the dashboards
overview, and the credential that mints reaches that panel's published
dashboards and the message endpoints its widgets speak, and nothing else.
Deleting the panel revokes it.
Closes the per-device view and the kiosk credential; supersedes the
multi-page/multi-section UI, since a page is now a dashboard of its own.

One shell for both editors. Flows and dashboards each get a searchable
overview under the padded shell, their editors move to the full-bleed
canvas, and the floating chrome is shared: a title bar that only says
what you are looking at, and a bottom dock carrying everything else —
the flow bar's status, settings and Publish moved down there, the
add-flow button moved to the overview.
Dashboards gain the rest of M4's visualization work:
- widgets are picked by clicking them, with the header as the drag
handle so a slider still slides and a switch still flips while
editing; settings moved into the flows' SidePanel
- react-grid-layout for drag and edge-resize, so the stored x/y finally
mean something; a dashboard nobody arranged is shelf-packed once
- a per-dashboard grid size, so a panel can be matched to its screen
- the chart widget, drawn with uPlot: several messages on one axis, fed
from the stored history plus the live socket tail, coloured from the
new --chart-1..5 ramp
- /view/{name}: the URL a wall panel is pointed at — no sidebar, no
footer, no editing, and no editor code, since routes are split
- a widget wired to a payload type it cannot carry, or wired to nothing
at all, carries the same red dot a failing node does; the picker
records the type it bound and WidgetDef refuses a mismatch on save
