Viewer illustration provenance¶
The product is vibe-viewer. vibe-view remains a deprecated command alias.
The screenshots in this manual come from two distinct sources; neither a
repository rename nor a version string proves that a released installer
contains the new interface. See names and compatibility.
Accepted source-built captures¶
Thirteen illustrations were refreshed on 1 November 2026 from rename-aware
Viewer source commit 6f0773c5150956ef9e235474a8c781525328faba and adopted in
vibe-qc commit 3e68c319c195c45ebb37662538e41156798a5410. These are source-built
interface captures, not captures of a renamed release installer. They reuse
retained computed water, formaldehyde and NaCl archives. No scientific result
was recomputed or substituted during the refresh.
Illustration under |
Faithful source and procedure |
|---|---|
|
Retained formaldehyde archive; select the molecular-orbital or stored-orbital panel. |
|
Retained formaldehyde archive; select Structure or Vibrations, respectively. |
|
Retained NaCl archive; select Structure with the recorded cell display. |
|
The same NaCl archive; select its stored density of states. |
|
Retained water archive; use the Viewer TUI capture generator for Structure, Orbital and Table. |
|
Retained formaldehyde archive; select SCF convergence in the TUI capture generator. |
The owning Viewer repository supplies docs/capture_screenshots.py and
docs/capture_tui_screenshots.py. Use its recorded capture settings and the exact retained QVF
bytes, verify the executable and source commit before capture, and record the
input and output SHA-256 digests. Opening an archive is sufficient; a QC build
or new calculation is not required. Source-built images can be updated as
source-built images; release illustrations require an installed build verified
against the corresponding tag first.
Retained historical captures¶
The original all_sections.qvf used by the following twenty-one assets has not
been located. They remain historical, including every frame of the vibration, trajectory and reaction
animations. The newer Viewer demonstration fixture is not the original data.
Do not use it to recreate these scientific panels under the old filenames.

tui-04-spectrum.svg is also historical. A retained formaldehyde archive is
available, but the historical IR intensity/axis scale has not been matched to
the current terminal renderer. Recover or verify the exact plotting settings
before replacement. Preserve its numeric content and units.
11-qvf-container-submit.png and 12-qvf-container-settled.png also show
the pre-rename UI. Their original water job-container inputs, lifecycle state
and capture settings have not been verified. Preserve them as historical until
those inputs are recovered and checked; a newly constructed pending or settled
container would be a different example. No scheduler job is needed or authorized
merely to refresh these images.
show-01-structure.svg, show-02-orbital.svg and the title of
tui-01-structure.svg contain the supported vibe-view compatibility command.
Their filenames and command captions remain accurate; the refreshed TUI body
uses the current product name.
Unused historical captures are retained because their original data is missing and they may contain unique evidence. Their lack of a current page reference is not enough reason to delete them. Scientific plots, downloaded calculation outputs and immutable release artwork retain their original results.
Reproduction boundaries¶
For the existing QVF workflow, use vibe-viewer info example.qvf,
vibe-viewer show example.qvf, then vibe-viewer open example.qvf. Choose the
recorded section and display controls before capture. For a full animation,
record a complete cycle and inspect every frame, including loop boundaries.
Do not splice new titles into old captures or alter plotted values.
scripts/render_tutorial_figures.py generates a different tutorial series and
runs calculations. It does not recover the missing all-sections fixture and
must not be run merely to refresh branding. The maintained example generators
under examples/vibe_view/ now print the preferred vibe-viewer command; their
scientific inputs and stable directory names are unchanged.
