Grounded vocabulary cards

Every artifact from the card-positioning review: the reported baseline, two rendered layout iterations, animation attempts, App Store references, and navigation evidence.

13 artifacts captured or downloaded during QA 2 vocabulary position renders 2 animation recording attempts 1 derived animation contact sheet + 1 user-provided baseline

Position evolution

The final frame is the emulator-verified implementation.

User-provided baseline with a fixed card rail and long crossing arrows
Reported problem

User-provided baseline

Fixed left rail, long connectors, and multiple crossings.

First object-local placement pass with two lower cards overlapping
Iteration 1

First object-local pass

Direction improved, but the dense lower cluster exposed a Salsa/Totopos overlap.

Final grounded vocabulary placement with angled cards and short noncrossing arrows
Final

Retuned global placement

Four angled cards, rotation-aware clearance, short local pointers, and no connector crossings.

Animation captures

Both attempts are preserved; limitations are explicit.

Attempt 1

Decodable emulator recording

The recorder caught the static vocabulary layout and the switch away, but missed a clean isolated view of the 95 ms pop sequence.

Frame contact sheet from the first animation recording
Derived

Recording contact sheet

Frame-by-frame audit generated from the first recording.

Failed capture

Attempt 2: no decodable frames

The emulator wrote an MP4 container, but FFmpeg found no video frames. Preserved for completeness, not counted as proof of the animation.

Current App Store references

Downloaded during the visual-language audit.
