It was the one shot taken by hand, and it outlived two rewrites of the
view it was meant to show -- a picture of a single-pane file list, still
in the docs after the pane grew a folder tree beside it. Nothing was
wrong with the process except that there wasn't one.
The script takes it now, expanding the tree and opening a folder first,
since a screenshot of Files with nothing open is a screenshot of a list
rather than of a file manager.
Anything the docs show should come from the mock. Otherwise it describes
whatever the app looked like on the day somebody had a screenshot tool
open, which is how this one got three versions out of date without
anybody noticing.
The other shots in docs/screenshots are refreshed by the same run. The
filters step timed out waiting for its editor, so filters.jpg is the
older one; that shot is untouched by anything here and the failure is not
diagnosed, which is worth knowing before the next person runs this and
assumes they broke it.
The logo baked "ihasmail.com" into the artwork, which is the wrong
identity for a project that is not the hosted instance -- and at the
34px the topbar renders it at, the wordmark was an illegible smudge
under a squashed cat.
logo.png, icon-512.png, icon-192.png and apple-touch-icon.png are now
the mark alone. favicon-64.png, icon-maskable.png and favicon.ico
already were, and are untouched.
Cropping needed a threshold: both source files carry a band of
near-invisible pixels (alpha 1-10) roughly 40px wide down the left
side, so a plain getbbox() crop leaves the mark sitting off-centre.
The bounding box is taken at alpha > 8 instead.
The login page had no name of its own -- it relied on the wordmark --
so it gets one as text, styled like the topbar's. Its screenshot is
retaken; the rest still show the old mark in the topbar.
The ones in the README were captured on 23 August, before the 2.0 QA
work: no drag handles on the filter rules, none of the calendar or
Sieve fixes, and the read-receipt line in the composer missing.
Same sizes as before, 1420x703 and 500x703 for the phone, so the table
lays out unchanged. The filters shot now carries four rules that say
something -- list-id, sender, subject, a wildcard match, each filing
somewhere different -- instead of four blank ones, and the calendar is
in the month view its caption has always claimed. A contact is open in
the contacts shot rather than an empty "select a contact".
The script that took them is committed alongside, so the next person
does not have to work out how to drive the mock: headless Chrome over
CDP, which is also how the viewport comes out at exactly the size the
old images used.
