Fixes #263.

The hover and focus rings took the target size from the first frame of a size transition, while the sprite mixes source → target by progress. The ring shader now takes the same raw inputs the sprite reads as attributes (source and target size, image size, whether sizes animate) and resolves and mixes them with the same GLSL rules along the exit ramp it already computes, so it draws around the sprite's footprint of the same frame.

Ring radius in px, sizes 20 → 44 → 20, body mid-transition at 16–17, measured against current main:

before after
focus ring, growing 29 22
hover ring, growing 28 22
focus ring, shrinking 13 21

Also in the fix commit:

  • A point's image size counts toward its footprint only when the point draws an image. The attribute holds a copy of the point size by default, and max(shape, image) held the outline ring at the target while the shape animated. Same rule in the sprite, picking, rect selection, the rings and getPointRadiusByIndex.
  • setPointSizes re-uploads image sizes. The default image size is a copy of the point size and stayed at the old size until the next position update.
  • A focused point keeps its ring through its fade-out and loses it once gone, like the sprite, instead of on the first frame of the fade.
  • The rect-selection footprint texture rebuilds lazily on first read after a size or image update.

Image sizes still snap to the target, since they have no source/target pair: #264.

The second commit drops the two identical #ifdef USE_UNIFORM_BUFFERS branches in the points and ring shaders. The third moves the exit ramp, resolveSize and the size mix into exit-ramp.glsl, a luma shader module beside point-size.glsl, so the sprite and the ring share one rule instead of two synced copies.

The fourth commit rejects an image list that cannot be packed (every image zero-sized): setImageData keeps the previous list, so the atlas, draw, picking, footprints, rings and getPointRadiusByIndex read one image list. Before, the data model held the new list while the GPU kept the old atlas, and a failed first list left the draw returning early every frame.

Point and image footprints now resolve consistently across rendering, picking, radius queries, and selection textures. Hover and focus rings use animated point sizes and absence transitions. Image atlas failures retain the previous image data.

Changes

Point footprint and transition handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Resolved footprint contracts
src/modules/GraphData/index.ts, src/modules/Shared/buffer.ts, src/index.ts
GraphData resolves image-aware footprints. Buffer updates return CPU source data. Radius queries use the resolved footprint. Failed atlas creation restores the previous image list.
Point transition state and ring sizing
src/modules/Points/index.ts
Points tracks source sizes, rebuilds stale selection footprints lazily, reports atlas creation status, and supplies animated size and transition uniforms to hover and focus rings.
Point and highlight shader transitions
src/modules/Points/draw-points.vert, src/modules/Points/draw-highlighted.vert, src/modules/Points/draw-highlighted.frag, src/modules/Points/exit-ramp-module.ts
Shaders use shared exit and size-transition rules. Highlight shaders use image-aware footprints and source-to-target size data.
Image-aware picking footprints
src/modules/Points/fill-picking-buffer.vert, src/modules/Points/index.ts
The picking pipeline carries image indices and image-set metadata. It includes image sizes only for valid image assignments.

…tprint

While point sizes animate, the hover and focus rings jumped to the final
size on the first frame and sat away from the body until the transition
ended. The sprite mixes source and target sizes by transition progress
in draw-points.vert; the ring shader took one `size` uniform read from
the resolved target size, so the two disagreed for the whole transition.

Invariant: the hover/focus ring is drawn around the sprite's footprint
of the same frame. The ring shader now takes the same raw inputs the
sprite reads as attributes — source and target size (NaN = default),
image size, and whether sizes animate — and resolves and mixes them
with the same GLSL rules, along the exit ramp it already computes for
its gone-guard. The ring is one quad, so the CPU forwards its point's
raw values as uniforms (a CPU copy of the source size buffer supplies
the source half); no shader rule is mirrored in TypeScript.

- The ring shader gates on the same R→G exit blend as the sprite, so a
  focused point keeps its ring through its fade and loses it only once
  it is gone, instead of on the first frame of the fade.
- A point's image size counts toward its footprint only when the point
  draws an image. The image-size attribute holds a copy of the target
  point size by default, and letting it into `max(shape, image)` held
  the outline ring at the target while the shape was still animating.
  One `GraphData.getResolvedPointFootprint` carries the rule to the
  rect-selection texture and `getPointRadiusByIndex`; the sprite, the
  picking buffer and the rings apply it the same way.
- `setPointSizes` also re-uploads image sizes: the default image size is
  a copy of the point size, and the buffer stayed at the old size until
  the next position update, so an image kept its old size after its
  point grew.
- The rect-selection footprint texture rebuilds lazily on first read
  after any size, image-size, image-index or image-set update, instead
  of eagerly in `updateSize`, which never saw the image updates and
  would otherwise upload it several times per data change.

Hover, focus and outline rings track their point through size
transitions and enter/exit fades, and every CPU reader of a point's
footprint agrees with what the sprite draws.

The greyout blend in draw-points.vert and draw-highlighted.vert was
written twice, once per side of `#ifdef USE_UNIFORM_BUFFERS`, with the
same lines on both sides. The split only earns its keep where the two
paths differ (the mat4 → mat3 transform); here it doubled the code a
reader has to compare. These were the last two identical pairs — every
remaining `#ifdef USE_UNIFORM_BUFFERS` has branches that actually differ.

draw-points.vert and draw-highlighted.vert each carried the exit R→G
blend, resolveSize and the source→target size mix, kept in step by
"must stay identical" notes. Now that point-size.glsl shows the pattern,
the three live once in exit-ramp.glsl as a luma shader module listed on
the sprite, core-pass and ring models. The shaders' uniforms come in as
parameters, as pointSizePx takes them; luma emits the application
defines before module code, so EXIT_DEFAULT_SIZE is in scope there.
resolveColor stays in the sprite: nothing else resolves colors.

🟡 Minor · Keep inputImageData and imageCount synchronized when atlas creation fails.

src/modules/Points/index.ts:1572-1599
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Keep inputImageData and imageCount synchronized when atlas creation fails. setImageData assigns inputImageData before createAtlas. When createAtlasDataFromImageData returns null, createAtlas returns without updating imageCount. Draw and picking then use the stale image count, while GraphData, rectangle selection, and public radius use the new image list. A point with a valid new image index can therefore use different image validity and footprint rules across GPU and CPU consumers, especially when pointImageSizes exceeds the point size. Restore the previous image data on failure, clear both values, or commit the new image data only after atlas creation succeeds.

…mer keeps the previous images

setImageData stored the new list before building the atlas. When the
atlas could not be built (every image zero-sized), the data model held the
new list while the atlas, imageCount and the textures kept the previous
set. The GPU then decided "draws an image" by the old count and the CPU
footprint by the new list, so rectangle selection, the rings and
getPointRadiusByIndex sized a point by an image the sprite and its hit box
did not have. A first list that failed left no atlas textures at all, and
the draw returned early on every frame.

- createAtlas reports whether the list was packed; on failure nothing it
  owns changes, so the caller cannot keep the new list either.
- setImageData restores the previous list when packing fails, with the
  existing console warning as the only trace.

A rejected list leaves the graph exactly as it was: one image list for the
atlas, the draw, picking, the footprints, the rings and the radius getter.
