Two gaps, both found on the shared Linux/Windows console UI.
**The settings tabs only moved for a gamepad.** They were bound to the shoulder
buttons and to PgUp/PgDn, and the legend spells PgUp/PgDn out only when NO pad is
attached — so with a controller plugged in a keyboard user had nothing to find,
and a mouse or a touchscreen could not change section at all.
The root cause was wider than the strip: `SkiaOverlay::handle_event` matched only
`KeyDown` and `TextInput`, so every mouse button, wheel and touch contact fell
past the console into the run loop, which routes pointer input exclusively at
`stream.capture` — `None` while you are browsing. Nothing in the console had ever
been clickable. Making just the pills answer would not have helped either: the
settings screen is opened with X from home, so a mouse could not reach it.
So the console gets a real pointer path:
- `Overlay::handle_pointer` carries mouse/touch in SWAPCHAIN PIXELS. The run loop
converts (it owns the window, hence the display scale, and mouse coordinates are
logical while fingers are normalised); the console then hit-tests the very rects
it drew last frame. Only DIRECT touch devices are offered — an indirect trackpad
already drives the mouse.
- Widgets act on the PRESS, not the release. The list and both carousels scroll the
focused item toward the centre, so what you pressed has slid out from under your
finger by the time it lifts; press-to-act has no such race and there is no drag
gesture to compete with.
- The hint bar became the pointer's button bar. It is already the console's only
on-screen statement of what the face buttons do, and a pointer has none — so its
Confirm/Back/Secondary/Tertiary pills are clickable on every screen, which is what
puts Settings and Library within reach of a mouse at all.
- Tab / Shift+Tab change section; PgUp/PgDn still do, and the keyboard legend now
reads "Tab".
- Right-click is Back everywhere, EXCEPT at the root: B there quits the launcher and
a right-click is far easier to fire by accident. Quitting stays explicit.
**Host cards had no menu.** Every other client hangs Wake / Copy link / Edit /
Forget off a host card; the console could add a host and connect to one, and that
was all — so a renamed machine or a fat-fingered address stayed wrong forever
unless you opened a desktop shell. UP on a saved tile now opens that host's menu,
the same gesture the Android console uses, on the one direction a horizontal
carousel leaves free.
- `ConsoleCmd::UpdateHost` edits the stored host IN PLACE. Removing and re-adding
would silently drop the fingerprint, the learned MAC, the pinned cards and the
profile binding — that is a rename, not a re-pair.
- `ConsoleCmd::ForgetHost` drops it; if it is still advertising it returns as a
discovered, unpaired row, which is the honest state.
- Forget arms on the first press and fires on the second. The other clients forget
outright; a console is driven by a thumbstick from across a room.
- A pinned profile card offers only Unpin. It is a shortcut, not a second host, and
offering to forget the host from it would blur exactly the distinction a pin draws.
- "Edit…" REPLACES the menu on the stack rather than stacking over it, so Back from
the editor doesn't land on a menu describing the host as it was before the edit.
Verified in the pf-lxcheck2 container (this crate compiles to nothing on macOS —
a bare `cargo check` there is vacuous): plain build and `clippy --all-targets`
clean under `-D warnings`, 72 tests pass. Seven are new, and cover the reported
bug directly — a press on a pill selects that tab, and each tab still keeps its
own cursor when a pointer is what switched it.
