Charts on Edge fight the page they sit on. Touching a chart grabs the scroll, so you can't scroll past a chart without moving its marker. The reading only shows while your finger is down, so it's gone the moment you lift. This PR fixes both, and brings scrubbing to the charts that didn't have it.

What changes

Scrubbing waits until you mean it. Scrubber now joins the gesture arena instead of reacting to every pointer:

  • A mostly vertical drag scrolls the page and never moves the marker.
  • A drag that is more than 1.5× as horizontal as it is vertical, past the device's touch slop, scrubs.
  • A tap selects when the finger lifts.
  • A long press selects, then follows the finger in any direction.

hold: mode (the trend cards) is unchanged.

The reading stays on screen. A new ChartPanel sits under each chart all the time:

  • It reads LATEST and the newest reading at rest. While you scrub, it reads SELECTED, the day or time, and the value, in the series colour.
  • A day with no reading shows a dash, never a neighbour's value, and nothing is interpolated.
  • When the day can be opened, the panel ends in the same ">" the old pop-in row had, and tapping the panel opens the day. A gap day has no chevron, and the panel keeps its size either way.
  • The caption keeps its height, so the panel doesn't jump while you scrub. It holds at 1.3× and 3.1× text.

It replaces the pop-in on:

  • Metric detail. It adds "7-day avg" and "vs avg", and the device line on multi-device windows ("Band + Ring").
  • Sleep detail. It covers both the stage chart and "Through the night". The stage comes from the stored stage boundaries, not the 240-column resample, so the panel and the screen reader agree to the second.
  • Readiness detail.
  • The Health HRV preview. The chart now has its own card under Deep dives, so scrubbing it doesn't open Investigate.
  • Both Workout charts and the month grid. These had no scrubbing before.

Screen readers. Each reading is spoken once:

  • At rest, the panel reads the whole reading.
  • While scrubbing, the slider reads it, including every sleep signal, with "No record" for a missing one.
  • The chevron is decoration; the panel's button is still labelled "Open ".

Nothing moves while you scrub. The panel is always there, so touching a chart never pushes the page, and nothing below it jumps. Its caption, value line and chevron slot keep the same size on every day, gap days included. On my fork I score screens for layout shift (a Flutter take on the web's CLS), and this layout is in line with those score policies.

One fix found on the way. StartCard put a Spacer in a column of unbounded height. Inside a scrolling page that throws in debug builds, and release builds lay the spacer out as 0. It now uses IntrinsicHeight.

After: metric detail at rest, the panel reads LATEST

A selected day, with the chevron

A day with no reading: a dash, no chevron, same size

Two devices: "Band + Ring"

Sleep: the stage chart scrubbed

Sleep: "Through the night" scrubbed

Readiness scrubbed

New: the Health HRV card

New: Workout heart effort

New: the month grid

Metric detail at 1.3× text

Sleep detail at 1.3× text

How I tested it

  • New tests: 98, covering the scroll-first rules (vertical drag scrolls, horizontal drag scrubs, tap, long press, device slop), the panel rules on every screen at 1.0 and 1.3 text, the chevron (shown only when the day opens, no size change, no overflow at 3.1×), spoken-once checks in the semantics tree, and local-day placement across both DST changes in New York time.
  • Existing tests changed: two, both because they asserted the pop-in this PR removes. ui2_trend_reading_test now finds the Recovery value in the panel. russian_review_findings_test scrolls a line into view that the panel pushed below the test viewport.
  • I've run the fork version of this on my daily build, and I'm confident it works.
  • Try scrubbing and scrolling on a real phone if you can. I don't expect the 1.5× horizontal ratio or the long press to need tuning, but they're the knobs if it feels off.
  • flutter analyze: clean.
  • Full suite (flutter test, 2 workers) on a55f9d67: 7,092 passed, 28 skipped, 20 failed. None of the failures come from this PR:
    • 16 pass on my machine on this branch. 7 of those ran on a cloud machine where the time zone can't be set (day_window_dst_test, luteal_flags_dst_test, band_step_spans_local_hour_test). The other 9 (hrs_link_test, app_state_sync_open_session_test) flaked under 2-worker load.
    • The other 4 are settings_report_l10n_test (es, fr, hi, zh), which main a9b765a7 fails on its own.

Not in this PR

  • A follow-up PR builds on this one: the Home view upgrade and better chart labels. It uses ChartPanel and the scroll-first Scrubber, so this should land first.
  • The sleep plots still repaint while you scrub. That was already true before this PR; this PR doesn't make it worse.
  • The workout load card's header overflows by 15 px at 1.3× text when the "Form" pill shows. That was already there before this PR.

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved chart and card layout stability, including consistent panel spacing and adaptive sizing.

… annotations

Inert stubs only (chart_annotations.dart, ChartFrame.annotations/annotationCursor,
MetricDetail.annotationLoader/journalToggleKey) so the suites compile.
187 tests, 165 failing on assertions.
Icon and dashed-line marks, shaded ranges and +n clusters laid out by a
pure engine in chart_annotations.dart. ChartFrame draws the lane above the
plot in its own RepaintBoundary; with no annotations it renders as before.
…ions

Scrubber states increase/decrease values whenever it has a value, and Flutter
rejects an empty neighbour; real callers always describe the position.
… the page

The Scrubber was a bare Listener that moved the marker on every pointer-down
and move, so a page scroll that began on a chart also dragged the marker.
It now joins the gesture arena: a tap selects on release, a drag scrubs only
when it is horizontal-dominant (more than 1.5x the vertical) past the
device touch slop, and a long press selects and then follows any axis.
LATEST and SELECTED captions and the 7-day avg and vs avg stats, in all
eight locales.
…readiness charts

An inset panel under the chart reads LATEST at rest and SELECTED while a
finger is on it, so the chart no longer changes height under the thumb. A gap
reads a dash, never a neighbour. Metric detail adds 7-day avg and vs avg and
an Open <day> action; the sleep charts read the stage from the timestamped
boundaries and each signal within 15 minutes; readiness gets the same panel.
…ric detail

Version changes become an icon with a dashed line in the annotation lane,
replacing the dotted marks. A chip, off by default and reading nothing until
turned on, adds the window's workouts, timed meals and timed journal fields.
…e selected

The panel excluded every cell from semantics and the sleep sliders only said
the time and stage, so heart rate, HRV, breathing and temperature were never
spoken, and the resting LATEST reading was silent everywhere.

One owner at a time: at rest the panel speaks 'LATEST . day, label value, ...'
as a single node; while a day or instant is selected the slider speaks the
whole reading (sleep now adds every signal, a missing one as 'No record') and
the panel stays silent.
The lane excluded its semantics and offered one comma list of labels, so a
screen reader could neither focus an icon nor step a cluster, and never heard
what kind of thing each mark was.

Each icon is a button labelled '<kind>, <label>'; the +n button steps the
cluster and names the members the icon does not show; marks too crowded for
an icon are still spoken. Kind words reuse existing strings; Moment and
Symptom are new in all eight locales.
…read tests

SlotScrub labelled its days against the clock at each touch, so a chart left
open across midnight shifted every label without shifting the data. The
caller now passes the calendar day the series was built for (Workout reuses
trimpEnd; HRV and the month grid take the day they built their window on).

The failed-read test now makes the loader throw. The local-day tests run in
America/New_York with literal timestamps across both DST transitions.
Drop stepAnnotationFocus, which nothing called, and say plainly that the
no-repaint test is a component check, not a claim about the sleep plots.
ChartPanel takes an optional note line (and reserveNote to keep its height on
multi-device windows). Metric detail fills it with the day's contributors under
the same gate and rules as the slider reading. The slider owns it while
scrubbed; at rest it ends the resting reading, so it is spoken once.
… tap target, stale journal read)

- scrubbed onto a no-value day, the panel names no device, as the slider
- a mark whose label is its kind name is spoken once
- SlotScrub: optional dayWord (HRV says "Last night"); no day named when no
  slot has a value
- annotation icon hit box ends at the plot seam, so a drag under an icon scrubs
- drop a journal read that started before a reload
- fix the 7-day average arb description and two doc comments
…ot seam

The lane header is never less than 44 pt, and the icon and +n boxes are
anchored at the seam and grow upward, with the glyph on the seam row.
Metric detail no longer draws an annotation lane or the Journal marks
chip; algorithm-version changes are the plain dotted xMarks lines again,
with upstream's footnote wording in all locales. The annotation engine
stays for single-day graphs.
The annotation lane, its icons and sources, and their tests are saved on
pr/edge-chart-annotations. This PR keeps the scroll-first scrubber and the
chart panel.
The panel's value line ends in the same chevron the old pop-in row had when
the shown day can be opened, and nothing on a day that cannot. A panel that
offers to open keeps the chevron's width on a gap day, so scrubbing onto one
never changes its height. The chevron is not spoken; the panel already says
Open <day>.

Walkthrough

The change adds chart-panel and slot-scrubbing components, updates chart interactions across several screens, adds localized panel labels, and adjusts start-card row sizing.

Changes: Chart panels and scrubbing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Scrubber gestures and chart panel
lib/ui2/grammar.dart, lib/l10n/app_*.arb, lib/ui2/README.md
Scrubbing uses tap and horizontal-drag gestures. ChartPanel displays readings, statistics, notes, and optional day actions. Localization files add panel labels, and the README documents the components and chart behavior.
Shared slot scrubbing
lib/ui2/screens/slot_scrub.dart, lib/ui2/profile/gallery.dart
SlotScrub maps scrub positions to series slots and displays the selected or latest recorded value. Gallery fixtures show panel and scrub states, including a missing value.
Metric and readiness detail panels
lib/ui2/screens/metric_detail.dart, lib/ui2/screens/readiness_detail.dart
Metric detail panels show the latest or selected value and statistics for the final seven slots. Readiness panels follow the selected slot and show its date and score band.
Sleep stage and signal panels
lib/ui2/screens/sleep_detail.dart
Sleep scrubbers use timestamped stage boundaries when available and include signal readings in spoken descriptions. The panel displays stage and signal data when the night timeline is linked.
Scrubbing in health, month-grid, and workout charts
lib/ui2/screens/health_screen.dart, lib/ui2/screens/month_grid.dart, lib/ui2/screens/workout_screen.dart
These charts use SlotScrub with their series, labels, and value formats. Month-grid rows now carry a date anchor.

Start-card sizing

Layer / File(s) Summary
Intrinsic start-card row
lib/ui2/screens/start_card.dart
The card row is wrapped in IntrinsicHeight; the existing minimum-height constraint remains.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: Low · previous review a55f9

The chart changes have bounded correctness and accessibility issues: overnight panels can show misleading readings, dates can become stale across midnight, and missing days can shift layout or omit spoken information. These warrant owner awareness and follow-up; no broad runtime or build failure is established.

Explanation

The title names two real changes in the changeset: scroll-first scrubbing (the Scrubber now uses gesture recognizers so vertical drags scroll and horizontal drags scrub) and the always-present ChartPanel reading panel. It is concise and specific, and it follows the title conventions. It does not cover the broader scope, such as the localization strings and the StartCard layout fix, but that is expected for a title.

Review comments at @lib/ui2/grammar.dart:
- Around line 563-566: In _equal, return an empty widget when items is empty
before calculating the column count, preventing the bounded-width path from
clamping with an upper bound of zero. Preserve the existing layout behavior for
non-empty items.
- Around line 415-418: Update the Semantics label for the panel cell in the
widget containing `_cell(c, p, x)` so null statistics receive a localized
missing-value label instead of being omitted. Preserve the existing label and
value announcement for non-null statistics, and use the app’s established
localization rather than hard-coding text.
- Around line 404-406: Update _signalCells so a sample is reported only when its
measurement coverage includes the selected time; do not use a nearby sample
across a recording gap. Keep the panel and slider values consistent with that
coverage rule.

Review comments at @lib/ui2/screens/health_screen.dart:
- Around line 1313-1314: Update the dayWord callback in the health preview so
its final-slot label uses the preview’s anchored date: show “Last night” only
when that date is the current day, and use the anchored date’s appropriate label
when it is no longer current. Preserve the existing behavior for non-final
slots.

Review comments at @lib/ui2/screens/readiness_detail.dart:
- Around line 488-491: Anchor the history dates in the `dayName` logic to the
day the score series was built, rather than the current date used during a later
rebuild. Store the anchor day when densifying the series and use it to calculate
panel labels, ensuring retained scores do not shift across midnight.
- Around line 500-501: Update the ChartPanelCell swatch configuration in the
readiness detail chart so missing days reserve the same swatch width as scored
days, while preserving the existing recovery label and color behavior.

Review comments at @lib/ui2/screens/sleep_detail.dart:
- Around line 2377-2381: Update the scrubber’s speech text around
SleepData.stageAt to use known when deciding whether to announce a missing
stage: omit the stage when staging is unavailable, but retain “not measured” for
known gaps. Preserve the existing stage-name speech when a stage is present.
- Around line 1628-1629: Replace the fraction-based cursor calculation using
_scrub, t0, and t1 with a shared selected instant, and use that same instant to
position cursors and update panels across charts, even when their night bounds
differ.
- Around line 307-308: Update getDeviceNights to preserve uncovered device-epoch
intervals by emitting an unmeasured boundary for each gap before stageAt looks
up a stage. Ensure stageAt does not carry the preceding stage across a gap,
while preserving stage lookup for measured intervals.

Review comments at @lib/ui2/screens/slot_scrub.dart:
- Around line 91-92: In SlotScrub, check whether the series is empty before
indexing it with `shown`; pass an empty reading to the builder in that case,
while preserving the existing slot-selection and reading behavior for non-empty
series.

A missing stat is spoken as "No record". A panel with no cells and a
SlotScrub with no series no longer throw. Readiness dates its history from
the day the series was built, and a missing day keeps the swatch width (the
sleep stage cell too). A device's gaps between epochs read as not measured.
Both sleep charts share one selected instant instead of one fraction, and a
night with no staging no longer says "not measured".
