From ebf22e315378145724409ecda80e3947e92bea5b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: JoshHeaps Date: Tue, 1 Sep 2026 17:36:37 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] Shorten the rulings index to the words a dealer would say Last change added an index to the rulings sheet and I wrote down what it cost: 342px at the top of a 390px-wide sheet, so a dealer reading straight through scrolls past the whole thing first. That was an honest trade at the time. It is also fixable. The index was labelled with the section headings, which are sentences -- "A short all-in doesn't reopen the betting" -- so nine of them stacked one per row. A dealer hunting for that ruling is looking for the words "short all-in", not the sentence. Misdeal Board card early Out of turn Short all-in Uncalled bet Oversized chip Minimum raise Odd chip String bet phone 342px -> 143px 9 rows -> 3 desktop ~200 -> 70px -> 2 landscape -> 94px -> 2 The first ruling now starts 309px into the sheet on a phone rather than 440. Each short label lives on its own section as data-short, next to the heading it shortens, and the index falls back to the heading when there is not one -- so a ruling added later still appears, still without anyone having to write it twice. The full sentence stays as the button's aria-label, so the short label never costs a screen reader the heading. Checked at four sizes across touch and pointer contexts: nine labels, nine aria-labels, every chip 44px on touch, jumping still lands and focuses the right heading, contrast clean, no console errors. 244 tests still passing. Also looked at, and left alone: the card picker refuses a card already dealt -- disabled, titled "Already dealt to Ann" -- and every one of its 52 buttons clears 44px. A messy nine-seat table with 25/50 blinds, two folded players, a busted seat, accented and hyphenated names, a $125,000 stack and a filled notes field audits clean at every size but the landscape phone already known from #63.
