ReMapping — production log
The running notebook for ReMapping productions: the commands used to start one, the questions still open, the music references collected for the soundtrack, and the issue list — open issues above, fixed issues below, each with the date it changed state. Tick boxes here are live; ticking one in the browser rewrites this file.
In one line. Two open cases (outline on text, tracking on math), two fixed issues (framing outline, Camera3D quality), and the setup commands that start every new production.
Production setup
The manual for this folder
The folder manual has to exist in two languages, and both need writing:
- Create/update the manual in simple English.
- Create/update the manual in Persian.
Tracking value
For the intended use case, the tracking setting is:
tracking=-0.05
Why negative. A small negative tracking pulls the glyphs slightly together, which is what the typeface wants at display sizes. Whether it behaves the same way over mathematical content is exactly the open question in §2.2.
Creating a new production
cd ~/Documents/Remapping
source .venv/bin/activate
uv run remapping production new productions/my-film --id my-film
Then run the cheap checks before rendering anything — production validate, film inspect,
then a single still. The full sequence is in the
rendering guide.
Open cases
These are questions, not tasks: something needs to be looked at before it is clear whether there is any work to do.
Outline on text
to check
- Check whether the framing outline works correctly on text.
The framing outline itself was fixed (§5.1) — this is about whether that fix also holds when the framed object is a text object rather than a shape.
Tracking on math
to check
- Check how tracking behaves with mathematical content.
tracking=-0.05 (§1.2) is tuned for prose. Mathematical layout sets its own
inter-glyph spacing, so applying prose tracking on top of it may be wrong, harmless, or
actively damaging — it has not been tested.
