+### Resolution Presets
+
+```python
+RESOLUTION_PRESETS = {
+    "landscape":  (1920, 1080),  # 16:9 — YouTube, default
+    "portrait":   (1080, 1920),  # 9:16 — TikTok, Reels, Stories
+    "square":     (1080, 1080),  # 1:1  — Instagram feed

+    "landscape4k":(3840, 2160),  # 16:9 — 4K
+    "portrait4k": (2160, 3840),  # 9:16 — 4K portrait
+}
+
+def get_resolution(preset="landscape", custom=None):
+    """Returns (VW, VH) tuple."""
+    if custom:

+```
+
+### Multi-Density Grids
+
+预初始化多个 grid 大小。在每个 section 中切换以获得视觉多样性。Grid 尺寸根据分辨率自动计算：
+
+**Landscape (1920x1080):**
+
+| 键 | Font Size | Grid (cols x rows) | Use |
+|-----|-----------|-------------------|-----|
+| xs | 8 | 400x108 | Ultra-dense data fields |
+| sm | 10 | 320x83 | Dense detail, rain, starfields |
+| md | 16 | 192x56 | Default balanced, transitions |
+| lg | 20 | 160x45 | Quote/lyric text (readable at 1080p) |
+| xl | 24 | 137x37 | Short quotes, large titles |
+| xxl | 40 | 80x22 | Giant text, minimal |
+
+**Portrait (1080x1920):**
+
+| 键 | Font Size | Grid (cols x rows) | Use |
+|-----|-----------|-------------------|-----|
+| xs | 8 | 225x192 | Ultra-dense, tall data columns |
+| sm | 10 | 180x148 | Dense detail, vertical rain |
+| md | 16 | 112x100 | Default balanced |
+| lg | 20 | 90x80 | Readable text (~30 chars/line centered) |
+| xl | 24 | 75x66 | Short quotes, stacked |
+| xxl | 40 | 45x39 | Giant text, minimal |
+
+**Square (1080x1080):**
+
+| 键 | Font Size | Grid (cols x rows) | Use |
+|-----|-----------|-------------------|-----|
+| sm | 10 | 180x83 | Dense detail |
+| md | 16 | 112x56 | Default balanced |
+| lg | 20 | 90x45 | Readable text |
+
+**Key differences in portrait mode:**
+- Fewer columns (90 at `lg` vs 160) — lines must be shorter or wrap
+- Many more rows (80 at `lg` vs 45) — vertical stacking is natural
+- Aspect ratio correction flips: `asp = cw / ch` still works but the visual emphasis is vertical
+- Radial effects appear as tall ellipses unless corrected
+- Vertical effects (rain, embers, fire columns) are naturally enhanced
+- Horizontal effects (spectrum bars, waveforms) need rotation or compression
+
+**Grid sizing for text in portrait**: Use `lg` (20px) for 2-3 word lines. Max comfortable line length is ~25-30 chars. For longer quotes, break aggressively into many short lines stacked vertically — portrait has vertical space to spare. `xl` (24px) works for single words or very short phrases.
+
+Grid dimensions: `cols = VW // cell_width`, `rows = VH // cell_height`.
+
+### Font Selection
+
+Don't hardcode a single font. Choose fonts to match the project's mood. Monospace fonts are required for grid alignment but vary widely in personality:
+
+| Font | Personality | Platform |
+|------|-------------|----------|
+| Menlo | Clean, neutral, Apple-native | macOS |
+| Monaco | Retro terminal, compact | macOS |
+| Courier New | Classic typewriter, wide | Cross-platform |
+| SF Mono | Modern, tight spacing | macOS |
+| Consolas | Windows native, clean | Windows |
+| JetBrains Mono | Developer, ligature-ready | Install |
+| Fira Code | Geometric, modern | Install |
+| IBM Plex Mono | Corporate, authoritative | Install |
+| Source Code Pro | Adobe, balanced | Install |
+
+**Font detection at init**: probe available fonts and fall back gracefully:
+
+```python
+import platform
+
+def find_font(preferences):
+    """Try fonts in order, return first that exists."""
+    for name, path in preferences:
+        if os.path.exists(path):
+            return path
+    raise FileNotFoundError(f"No monospace font found. Tried: {[p for _,p in preferences]}")
+
+FONT_PREFS_MACOS = [
+    ("Menlo", "/System/Library/Fonts/Menlo.ttc"),
+    ("Monaco", "/System/Library/Fonts/Monaco.ttf"),
+    ("SF Mono", "/System/Library/Fonts/SFNSMono.ttf"),
+    ("Courier", "/System/Library/Fonts/Courier.ttc"),
+]
+FONT_PREFS_LINUX = [
+    ("DejaVu Sans Mono", "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSansMono.ttf"),
+    ("Liberation Mono", "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation/LiberationMono-Regular.ttf"),
+    ("Noto Sans Mono", "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/noto/NotoSansMono-Regular.ttf"),
+    ("Ubuntu Mono", "/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu/UbuntuMono-R.ttf"),
+]
+FONT_PREFS_WINDOWS = [
+    ("Consolas", r"C:\Windows\Fonts\consola.ttf"),
+    ("Courier New", r"C:\Windows\Fonts\cour.ttf"),
+    ("Lucida Console", r"C:\Windows\Fonts\lucon.ttf"),
+    ("Cascadia Code", os.path.expandvars(r"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts\CascadiaCode.ttf")),
+    ("Cascadia Mono", os.path.expandvars(r"%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Fonts\CascadiaMono.ttf")),
+]
+
+def _get_font_prefs():
+    s = platform.system()
+    if s == "Darwin":
+        return FONT_PREFS_MACOS
+    elif s == "Windows":
+        return FONT_PREFS_WINDOWS
+    return FONT_PREFS_LINUX
+
+FONT_PREFS = _get_font_prefs()
+```
+
+**Multi-font rendering**: use different fonts for different layers (e.g., monospace for background, a bolder variant for overlay text). Each GridLayer owns its own font:
+
+```python
+grid_bg = GridLayer(find_font(FONT_PREFS), 16)       # background
+grid_text = GridLayer(find_font(BOLD_PREFS), 20)      # readable text
+```
+
+### Collecting All Characters
+
+Before initializing grids, gather all characters that need bitmap pre-rasterization:
+
+```python
+all_chars = set()
+for pal in [PAL_DEFAULT, PAL_DENSE, PAL_BLOCKS, PAL_RUNE, PAL_KATA,
+            PAL_GREEK, PAL_MATH, PAL_DOTS, PAL_BRAILLE, PAL_STARS,
+            PAL_HALFFILL, PAL_HATCH, PAL_BINARY, PAL_MUSIC, PAL_BOX,
+            PAL_CIRCUIT, PAL_ARROWS, PAL_HERMES]:  # ... all palettes used in project
+    all_chars.update(pal)
+# Add any overlay text characters
+all_chars.update("ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789 .,-:;!?/|")
+all_chars.discard(" ")  # space is never rendered
+```
+
+### GridLayer Initialization
+
+Each grid pre-computes coordinate arrays for vectorized effect math. The grid automatically adapts to any resolution (landscape, portrait, square):
+
+```python
+class GridLayer:
+    def __init__(self, font_path, font_size, vw=None, vh=None):
+        """Initialize grid for any resolution.
+        vw, vh: video width/height in pixels. Defaults to global VW, VH."""
+        vw = vw or VW; vh = vh or VH
+        self.vw = vw; self.vh = vh
+
+        self.font = ImageFont.truetype(font_path, font_size)
+        asc, desc = self.font.getmetrics()
+        bbox = self.font.getbbox("M")
+        self.cw = bbox[2] - bbox[0]  # character cell width
+        self.ch = asc + desc  # CRITICAL: not textbbox height
+
+        self.cols = vw // self.cw
+        self.rows = vh // self.ch
+        self.ox = (vw - self.cols * self.cw) // 2  # centering
+        self.oy = (vh - self.rows * self.ch) // 2
+
+        # Aspect ratio metadata
+        self.aspect = vw / vh  # >1 = landscape, <1 = portrait, 1 = square
+        self.is_portrait = vw < vh
+        self.is_landscape = vw > vh
+
+        # Index arrays
+        self.rr = np.arange(self.rows, dtype=np.float32)[:, None]
+        self.cc = np.arange(self.cols, dtype=np.float32)[None, :]
+
+        # Polar coordinates (aspect-corrected)
+        cx, cy = self.cols / 2.0, self.rows / 2.0
+        asp = self.cw / self.ch
+        self.dx = self.cc - cx
+        self.dy = (self.rr - cy) * asp
+        self.dist = np.sqrt(self.dx**2 + self.dy**2)
+        self.angle = np.arctan2(self.dy, self.dx)
+
+        # Normalized (0-1 range) -- for distance falloff
+        self.dx_n = (self.cc - cx) / max(self.cols, 1)
+        self.dy_n = (self.rr - cy) / max(self.rows, 1) * asp
+        self.dist_n = np.sqrt(self.dx_n**2 + self.dy_n**2)
+
+        # Pre-rasterize all characters to float32 bitmaps
+        self.bm = {}
+        for c in all_chars:
+            img = Image.new("L", (self.cw, self.ch), 0)
+            ImageDraw.Draw(img).text((0, 0), c, fill=255, font=self.font)
+            self.bm[c] = np.array(img, dtype=np.float32) / 255.0
+```
+
+### Character Render Loop
+
+The bottleneck. Composites pre-rasterized bitmaps onto pixel canvas:
+
+```python
+def render(self, chars, colors, canvas=None):
+    if canvas is None:
+        canvas = np.zeros((VH, VW, 3), dtype=np.uint8)
+    for row in range(self.rows):
+        y = self.oy + row * self.ch
+        if y + self.ch > VH: break
+        for col in range(self.cols):
+            c = chars[row, col]
+            if c == " ": continue
+            x = self.ox + col * self.cw
+            if x + self.cw > VW: break
+            a = self.bm[c]  # float32 bitmap
+            canvas[y:y+self.ch, x:x+self.cw] = np.maximum(
+                canvas[y:y+self.ch, x:x+self.cw],
+                (a[:, :, None] * colors[row, col]).astype(np.uint8))
+    return canvas
+```
+
+Use `np.maximum` for additive blending (brighter chars overwrite dimmer ones, never darken).
+
+### Multi-Layer Rendering
+
+Render multiple grids onto the same canvas for depth:
+
+```python
+canvas = np.zeros((VH, VW, 3), dtype=np.uint8)
+canvas = grid_lg.render(bg_chars, bg_colors, canvas)   # background layer
+canvas = grid_md.render(main_chars, main_colors, canvas)  # main layer
+canvas = grid_sm.render(detail_chars, detail_colors, canvas)  # detail overlay
+```
+

+
+## Character Palettes
+
+### Design Principles
+
+Character palettes are the primary visual texture of ASCII video. They control not just brightness mapping but the entire visual feel. Design palettes intentionally:
+
+- **Visual weight**: characters sorted by the amount of ink/pixels they fill. Space is always index 0.
+- **Coherence**: characters within a palette should belong to the same visual family.
+- **Density curve**: the brightness-to-character mapping is nonlinear. Dense palettes (many chars) give smoother gradients; sparse palettes (5-8 chars) give posterized/graphic looks.
+- **Rendering compatibility**: every character in the palette must exist in the font. Test at init and remove missing glyphs.
+
+### Palette Library
+
+Organized by visual family. Mix and match per project -- don't default to PAL_DEFAULT for everything.
+
+#### Density / Brightness Palettes
+```python
+PAL_DEFAULT  = " .`'-:;!><=+*^~?/|(){}[]#&$@%"       # classic ASCII art
+PAL_DENSE    = " .:;+=xX$#@\u2588"                          # simple 11-level ramp
+PAL_MINIMAL  = " .:-=+#@"                               # 8-level, graphic
+PAL_BINARY   = " \u2588"                                      # 2-level, extreme contrast
+PAL_GRADIENT = " \u2591\u2592\u2593\u2588"                              # 4-level block gradient
+```

+```
+
+### Creating Custom Palettes
+
+When designing for a project, build palettes from the content's theme:
+
+1. **Choose a visual family** (dots, blocks, symbols, script)
+2. **Sort by visual weight** -- render each char at target font size, count lit pixels, sort ascending
+3. **Test at target grid size** -- some chars collapse to blobs at small sizes
+4. **Validate in font** -- remove chars the font can't render:
+
+```python
+def validate_palette(pal, font):
+    """Remove characters the font can't render."""
+    valid = []
+    for c in pal:
+        if c == " ":
+            valid.append(c)
+            continue
+        img = Image.new("L", (20, 20), 0)
+        ImageDraw.Draw(img).text((0, 0), c, fill=255, font=font)
+        if np.array(img).max() > 0:  # char actually rendered something
+            valid.append(c)
+    return "".join(valid)
+```
+
+### Mapping Values to Characters
+
+```python
+def val2char(v, mask, pal=PAL_DEFAULT):
+    """Map float array (0-1) to character array using palette."""
+    n = len(pal)
+    idx = np.clip((v * n).astype(int), 0, n - 1)
+    out = np.full(v.shape, " ", dtype="U1")
+    for i, ch in enumerate(pal):
+        out[mask & (idx == i)] = ch
+    return out
+```
+
+**Nonlinear mapping** for different visual curves:
+
+```python
+def val2char_gamma(v, mask, pal, gamma=1.0):
+    """Gamma-corrected palette mapping. gamma<1 = brighter, gamma>1 = darker."""
+    v_adj = np.power(np.clip(v, 0, 1), gamma)
+    return val2char(v_adj, mask, pal)
+
+def val2char_step(v, mask, pal, thresholds):
+    """Custom threshold mapping. thresholds = list of float breakpoints."""
+    out = np.full(v.shape, pal[0], dtype="U1")
+    for i, thr in enumerate(thresholds):
+        out[mask & (v > thr)] = pal[min(i + 1, len(pal) - 1)]
+    return out
+```
+
+---
+
+## Color System
+
+### HSV->RGB (Vectorized)
+
+All color computation in HSV for intuitive control, converted at render time:
+
+```python
+def hsv2rgb(h, s, v):
+    """Vectorized HSV->RGB. h,s,v are numpy arrays. Returns (R,G,B) uint8 arrays."""
+    h = h % 1.0
+    c = v * s; x = c * (1 - np.abs((h*6) % 2 - 1)); m = v - c
+    # ... 6 sector assignment ...
+    return (np.clip((r+m)*255, 0, 255).astype(np.uint8),
+            np.clip((g+m)*255, 0, 255).astype(np.uint8),
+            np.clip((b+m)*255, 0, 255).astype(np.uint8))
+```
+
+### Color Mapping Strategies
+
+Don't default to a single strategy. Choose based on the visual intent:

+### OKLAB Color Space (Perceptually Uniform)
+
+HSV hue is perceptually non-uniform: green occupies far more visual range than blue. OKLAB / OKLCH provide perceptually even color steps — hue increments of 0.1 look equally different regardless of starting hue. Use OKLAB for:
+- Gradient interpolation (no unwanted intermediate hues)
+- Color harmony generation (perceptually balanced palettes)
+- Smooth color transitions over time
