- The standalone app at five window sizes, from a large desktop to a
phone-shaped 360x640, on Chromium and Firefox: the camera menu stays
inside the window, which is the call area there, and the last effect can
still be scrolled to and chosen.
- As a component in a host page, and as a widget in Element Web: a
picture chosen reaches the preview, so the pipeline's model and
WebAssembly load from those builds, and in a small container the last
effect is reached and chosen.
- Compound portals the menu to the page and takes no container for it, so
there it has none of the component's scoped styles, as the microphone
menu has none.
- The colour checks the three share live in playwright/utils.

- A host in the call records every frame of every video track it receives
from the moment the track arrives. A guest with a picture chosen joins,
or turns the camera on in the call from off at joining or from off in
the call; none of the guest's frames may be closer to the camera image
than to the picture. A guest with no effect fails it.
- The preview's track stopping destroys the shared pipeline, so the call's
track builds it again. That build is held back as long as the slower
route takes, and publishing still waits for it; each check that holds
the model back also checks that it did.
- The first build survives the preview camera turned off and on while it
runs, which is what running builds one at a time is for.
- The camera's colour is taken once the preview shows it; taken earlier it
was black, which let frames of the room pass as the picture. The camera
checks wait for the call itself, as the lobby has a camera button of
its own.

- The camera menu's blur toggle becomes a Background effects section
under the cameras: no effect, blur and the two shipped backgrounds as
one radio choice of tiles, three across. It scrolls with the device
list, so it stays reachable in a short call, and choosing keeps the
menu open. The lobby gets it too, as both render the same footer.
- The footer's view model gives the options, the notice and the actions;
the footer only names them.
- Each tile is Compound's MenuItem as a menuitemradio, styled as a tile.
Compound makes it an item of the dropdown, so the arrow keys walk the
tiles with the device rows, and takes its tap in the phone drawer. A
tile that can't be chosen has no select handler, so the keyboard passes
over it.
- Where the browser can't run effects the tiles are shown, disabled and
explained by a notice the group is described by. No effect stays
choosable and shows as in force. The notice is in the scrolling list,
so a short call doesn't push the menu out of it.
- Section headings are raised, or the positioned tiles scroll over the
one they sit under; raised within the list only, so the menu's frame
stays over them. Tiles clip with overflow: clip; with hidden they are
scroll containers, which focus scrolls into view without their border.
- End to end on Chromium and Firefox: a shipped background chosen in the
lobby shows in the preview, and None after Blur draws nothing, counted
in WebGL draws (Blur: about 1400 a second on Chromium, 2300 on
Firefox).
- The Quick Audio Menu's test of the camera menu keeps its name and now
finds blur among the effects rather than as a toggle.

- Compound 10.3.0 bounds a menu by the space it has and scrolls what
doesn't fit, within a boundary the app passes. The menus pass the call
area, 16px in from its sides, rather than measuring its width.
- The 296px width is the menu's own style. Compound gives that style only
to the dropdown, so menuIsDrawer, which copied its phone rule, goes.
- Compound draws the menu's frame over its content, so nothing that
scrolls can hide it in Safari: the list, headings and meter no longer
keep a border width clear of it, and the checks that they did go.
- The device list is Compound's scroll area, so it fades out at the
foot with Compound's chevron while there is more below.
- The microphone menu's meter sticks at that foot, with rows scrolling
under it as before, so the list has no fade above it: Compound's is a
mask fixed to the list's edge, while a bounce at the top carries the
meter with the rows. The band under the meter is filled, or rows would
show there. The edge fades from where the chevron starts, so a bounce
fades the meter out before it reaches the chevron. A row reached by
keyboard stays above the meter.
- The list's height is still its share of the call.
- The component harness leaves the host's stylesheets unscoped, Compound's
among them, as a host does: scoped, they never reached the menu, which is
portalled out of Element Call's root.
- Its specs check only Element Call's own document styles on the host
page, and find the device list within Compound's scroll area.

The widget tests cannot reach what makes a component different, because the
iframe used to guarantee it: that Element Call stays inside the space it was
given, and that two of them can exist in one page. So the development harness
gets driven by Playwright.
Three tests. Two components in one page holding a real call between two devices
of one account. The settings dialog and the reaction picker staying inside the
container the host gave, asserted by bounding box. And the host bridge
reporting in both directions, including a host-initiated mute coming back as a
report of the new state.
The containment test is the one worth having: both of the escapes found by
running the harness by hand — the settings dialog centred on the window, and
the reaction picker at 82vh landing below the container — would have failed it,
and neither was visible to typechecking, linting or the unit tests.
Users and rooms are created through the Synapse admin and client-server APIs
rather than by driving an interface, and the harness now takes its credentials
from its own query string so that a test can say which account and room to use.
A host reading its own URL is proper; it was Element Call doing so that was the
mistake.
Playwright gains a second web server for the harness on port 3001, a Vite dev
server whether or not the app itself is served from Docker, since the harness is
a development page with nothing to build.
This is the mode in which we sent membership events with the 'oldest membership' transport selection algorithm, which stopped being the default back in version 0.21.0. Users will no longer be able to select this mode in developer settings, and admins will no longer be able to select legacy mode through the config either. The app will still continue to support *receiving* membership events with the 'oldest membership' transport selection algorithm from others, however.
* Update ghcr.io/element-hq/element-web:develop Docker digest to 0183c0a
