1.8.1

Session tutorial explanations now stay adjacent to the highlighted control whenever the content fits above or below it. Placement uses the panel's unconstrained desired height rather than the target's relationship to the viewport midpoint.

When a side column is needed, the panel is remeasured at that width and vertically centered on the highlight, clamped inside the usable viewport. Scrollable content, reachable navigation, targetless placement and oversized TARGET_TAP targets retain their existing fallbacks.

Validation: 553 tests passed, including 24 new placement regressions covering portrait, landscape, RTL, high density, enlarged text, insets, offset windows, rotation and scrolling. Six native Android-rendered screenshots were inspected. Lint has no errors; the sample APK and both release AARs build successfully. No physical-device validation was performed for this patch.
