  • refactor: remove section dividers

  • FAQ #14 + Release-Notes See-also + author-attribution dedup Final consistency pass before screenshot capture. Closes the cross-page consolidation loop the Phase 4 plan called for and addresses the only content page that was missing a See-also footer. - FAQ.md gains entry #14: "Why are my annotations anonymous?" Links out to Review System -> Author attribution for the design rationale. - Troubleshooting.md shortens its author-attribution section to a one-line cross-link into the new FAQ entry, removing the in-line restatement. - Release-Notes.md gains a See-also footer. Consistency sweep results across the wiki: - All 21 content pages carry the top breadcrumb (Home intentionally exempt; chrome files _Sidebar / _Footer exempt). - All content pages now carry a See-also footer. - Zero stale "Phase N" / "Coming in Phase" / TODO leak-throughs. - Zero em-dashes / en-dashes / smart quotes. - Zero broken internal page links. - All 14 FAQ anchors valid.

  • Fill Validation Reference, Architecture, and FAQ Validation-Reference (~340 lines): - Worked example for the triangle-budget tolerance band, grounded in the default 20% formula. - In-viewport overlay section names the six colour categories sourced from solarxy-renderer/src/validation.rs: red Error, orange InvalidMaterial, cyan NormalMismatch, magenta MissingUvs, yellow DegenerateTriangles, orange-red NonManifoldEdge (edges only, 60% alpha vs 40% for faces). Notes that triangle_budget has Model scope and does not paint. - Analyze TUI Validation-tab keys table. - Per-check reference: nine H3 subsections (one per check), each with the five-block template - What it flags / Severity + Toggle / Common causes / How to fix / Overlay appearance. Fix guidance stays DCC-agnostic. Architecture (~190 lines): - Lean contributor on-ramp: crate map, dependency DAG (ASCII; Mermaid in Phase 3), the ten-stage render pipeline, State / GuiSnapshot orientation, dock layout persistence, validation library boundary, where-to-look table. - Every file path links to GitHub source at the v0.6.0 tag for clickable navigation; updates per release. - Links to in-repo CLAUDE.md for the deeper code-side patterns rather than reproducing them in the wiki. FAQ (~180 lines): - 13 entries ordered by guessed frequency (hottest first): --paths + --mode analyze, markers disappeared after re-export, which solarxy.toml was used, shading vs inspection, Shift+S retirement, amber Review dot, in-app shortcuts, theme hot-swap, texel density red, markers in UV pane, F4 Quad and UV Map, no CLI MSI on Windows, no Linux aarch64 AppImage in v0.6.0. - Each answer: one short paragraph + deep link. Anchor ids kept from the Phase 1 scaffold so cross-page links stay stable.

  • Restructure wiki: split User-Guide and Configuration, scaffold new pages Phase 1 of the comprehensive v0.6.0 milestone wiki plan. Pure restructure - no new prose - to land the 21-page layout. Phase 2 fills the scaffolded sections. New pages (10): - Quickstart, Tutorial-First-Review-Session, Tutorial-Inspect-A-Gltf, Tutorial-Validate-In-CI, Tutorial-Custom-Validation-Policy: scaffolds with TOCs and Phase 2 placeholders. - Interface, Inspection: split out of User-Guide. Interface holds the menu bar / pane toolbars / sidebar / dock / status bar / viewport layouts / loading / console / preferences. Inspection holds view + inspection modes, material overrides, Material Inspector, lighting, post-processing, display overlays, mesh visibility, camera. - Validation-Reference: split out of Configuration. Holds the nine-check table and thresholds; Phase 2 fills the deeper per-check and overlay sections. - FAQ: ten seed questions with anchored stubs. - Architecture: section stubs with the crate table and the where-to-look-for-X map. Modified pages (3): - User-Guide: shrunk to a hub overview that points to Interface, Inspection, and the tutorials. Two binaries and supported file formats stay. - Configuration: Validation checks block removed and replaced with a pointer to Validation-Reference. Discovery, schema, field reference, and the entire config.toml section are unchanged. - _Sidebar: rebuilt for the 21-page navigation in six sections.
