The Driver could not scroll down to the people-groups grid. The cause was a
layout mismatch rather than any one property: research-dashboard is a
fixed-viewport app whose table scrolls internally, and the cap-4 composite
stacked it above a grid and expected the page to scroll, pinning the band to one
screen so height:100% would resolve. At a 900px viewport that left the table a
269px window over 54834px of rows, so a wheel anywhere in the lower third landed
on the table and never reached the page.
research-dashboard now accepts layout:page-scroll through profileConfig, the
channel ProfileLoader already exposes as the profile-config attribute. A prop
would not work here: the registered custom element is ProfileLoader, which
renders the profile with no props bound, so a declared prop type-checks, builds
clean and never fires. Default is unset, so every existing embed is unchanged.
In that mode the shell height is auto, the map row carries an explicit height so
it cannot collapse, and the table keeps an internal scroll bounded at 62svh.
Both extremes were measured and both are wrong: at 34% of a screen the table is
a keyhole that captures every wheel event, and released to overflow:visible it
renders all 54834px and puts the grid at y=57777 -- reachable in principle,
useless in practice. A tall bounded panel is neither.
Verified in the cap-5 shell on a settled tree: wheeling over the map and
wheeling below it now both move the page 1500px, which is its entire scroll
range, and the grid lands on screen at top 851. The two gestures agreeing is the
real proof -- the broken state read 300 against 2311, the signature of something
consuming the wheel. The standalone leaf is unchanged: no page-scroll class,
900px shell, internal table scroll intact.
