# which is not the layout we want to show off. vhs Width/Height are PIXELS,
# not cells — at FontSize 15 Hack a cell is ~10.5x18.6 px, and Margin(36)+
# Padding(24) eat 120 px of each axis, so 1100 px is only ~93 columns and
# records the narrow layout. 1400x700 gives ~122x31 — tall enough that the
# prepare form shows its Prepare/Settings buttons without scrolling. If you change FontSize
# records a layout no user sees. 1200x570 is ~103x24 — 24 rows is the
# SUPPORTED MINIMUM, and recording at it is both honest and the tightest
# framing that still fits everything. Go shorter and the dashboard's progress
# bar scrolls out of frame (17 rows loses it); go much taller and the screen
# floats in dead space, which is what made the first cut of this GIF
# unreadable. If you change FontSize
# or Padding, recompute this and re-check the frames.
#
# Before committing a re-record: extract frames with ffmpeg and LOOK at them
