The overlay had grown by accretion: a search box floating top-centre, a readout panel bottom-left, a range readout bottom-right, and nothing that said these were parts of one instrument. This puts them on one rail across the bottom of the viewport — the dock — with a tab strip pinned to the bottom edge and whichever panel is open growing upward from it. The top of the screen keeps only the scale ladder and the nameplate, so the map itself is what fills the frame. Three tabs. SEARCH is the old search, with its field pinned to the bottom of the panel and the results growing upward above it, so the thing being typed into never moves while the list grows. READOUT is the old bottom-left panel. DISPLAY is new: five layer toggles — labels, orbits, grid, deep sky, sky — each a real scene object switched by visibility, except the ones the galaxy crossfade already rewrites every frame, whose toggles fold into that crossfade instead of fighting it. The range readout sits on the strip itself, so it is readable whatever is open. Behaviour worth stating: choosing a search result hands the panel straight back to the readout, since the thing to look at is now the scene. `/` opens the search from anywhere. Below `sm` the dock is the strip alone; a tap opens a panel as a sheet, a tap on the scene folds it away. The body-detail page gets the same dock with only the search — the info panel is its reading. Two things found on the way. CSS2DRenderer gives every label its own z-index for depth order, and the label host created no stacking context, so labels painted over every HUD panel; `isolate` on the host keeps them under. And starmap-hud's readout tests were really tests of the panel that moved, so they moved with it. Verified: build clean, 535/535 unit, 6/6 end-to-end, design detector clean, screenshots at 1440×900 and 390×844 across galaxy, galactic, system, body-detail, all three tabs and the layers-off state.

End-to-end tests (Playwright)
These tests run the real Angular dev server in a real Chromium browser, covering interactions
that unit/component tests (under src/**/*.spec.ts, run via npm test) can only approximate
under jsdom — most importantly the galaxy↔system camera-flight transitions (real WebGPU/
WebGL2 initialization + raycaster picking) and cross-view search navigation.
Running
npm run e2e # headless run against a freshly started dev server
npx playwright test --ui # interactive UI mode
npx playwright show-report
playwright.config.ts starts npm run start -- --port=4300 automatically and waits for it to
respond before running the suite (webServer.reuseExistingServer is true outside CI, so an
already-running ng serve on port 4300 is reused instead of starting a second one). Port 4300
is used instead of the Angular CLI's conventional 4200 to avoid colliding with an unrelated
server a developer might already have running there.
Notes
- The Sun (
Sol) is always placed at the coordinate-system origin (x=0,y=0,z=0), which is exactly where the default galaxy-view camera looks.camera-flight.spec.tsrelies on this to reliably click-select it by clicking the center of the canvas, without needing pixel-perfect knowledge of the star field's on-screen layout. - Data (bootstrap fetch of
stars.bin/stars-index.json/bodies.json/exoplanets.json/deepsky.json) loads asynchronously after the page loads, so tests poll (re-click/re-check) rather than assume the scene is interactive immediately afterpage.goto(). deepsky.jsonis the one dataset the scene treats as optional: it only feeds the decorative backdrop, so a failure to load it is logged and the star field comes up regardless.
