On a book-style foldable held open in portrait — 700dp, inside the 600–839dp
band — tapping a word made the poem unreadable. The panel is a fixed 360dp and
the columns keep their widths, so the page was left about 75dp: the verse broke
to one or two characters a line, and the breadcrumbs and the metre shattered the
same way.
The panel was chosen from the width of the window. That is the wrong question.
What matters is what is left of the page once the columns have taken their room,
so both panels now ask that instead:
- the dictionary opens beside the poem only while the page keeps 400dp;
- reading settings open beside the browser only while it keeps its own 600dp,
below which the panel would squeeze the columns and the poem into less than
the layout is built for.
Where they do not fit, the bottom sheet is used, exactly as on a phone: it
covers the foot of the poem but leaves every line whole. A tablet is unaffected
— verified at 2560x1600 that the panel still opens and the poem still reads.
The two panels now share one width, and the design notes record the rule.
