+# Events & Scripting System (`E`)
+
+> Extracted from the runtime's event model, messaging/rendering managers and compiler.
+
+## 1. `IEventJson` and what each flag DOES at runtime
+
+```ts
+interface IEventJson { H; P?; HF?; I?; C?; PE?; TO?; EV?; HL?; SM?; }
+```
+
+| Field | Runtime behavior |
+|-------|------------------------------|
+| `H` | Handler: code string (QS/JS/TS) **or** a Flow model object (`HL:"FL"`). |
+| `P` | Parameter declaration. **QS** → names only `"x,y,z"`; **TS/JS** → `"x:string,y:any"`. |
+| `HL` | Event handler language. **Use only `"TS"`** for `E` handlers. `QS` belongs to properties/bindings, not events. Compiled handlers get their `HL` rewritten to the compiled lang. |
+| `I` | **Immediate.** If `I` (or not currently rendering) the handler runs **now**; otherwise it's deferred to end-of-render. |
+| `C` | **Custom event.** Triggered via `quick.MM.trigger`. For `C:true`, trigger parameters are passed as the **dataSource** (array → first element; object → whole object), merged over the event's scope; not name-mapped like DOM events. |
+| `PE` | **Property event.** Passed into the component as a **prop callback** (the component calls it — e.g. chart `labelFormatter`/`tooltipLabel`). |
+| `TO` | **Trigger order** for post-render events. Deferred ordered callbacks run **descending** by `TO` — higher `TO` fires first. |
+| `EV` | **Externally visible.** Exposed to a parent page as `quick.parent.events.<name>`. |
+| `HF` | **Handler file** (TS 2.0): `H` is a function name resolved in the page's script file instead of inline code. |
+| `SM` | Source map (base64) for TS debugging. |
+
+## 2. Lifecycle (on the `Messaging` / page component)
+
+Emitted in the `Messaging` constructor in order, then `Restored` on back-navigation:
+
+1. **PreRender** — before rendering. **Canonical place to initialize store + trigger the first fetch.**
+2. **EndRender** — after render setup.
+3. **PostRender** — after DOM render; deferred handlers run here, ordered by `TO` (descending).
+4. **Restored** — when the page resurfaces from history (back navigation); re-runs dependency watchers and cascades to child Messaging components.
+5. **OnDeviceBack** — mobile hardware back button.
+
+Custom events are also defined on `Messaging` and invoked anywhere via `quick.MM.trigger`. Keep initialization in **one** lifecycle hook to avoid duplicate work.
+
+## 3. Custom events & parameters
+
+```ts
+quick.MM.trigger('eventName', [ { a:1, b:2 } ]);   // array → first element is dataSource
+quick.MM.trigger('eventName', payloadObject);       // object → whole object is dataSource
+quick.MM.delay('eventName', { delayTime: 500, options: [...] });
+let r = quick.MM.trigger('eventName');              // can return a value (via quick.return)
+```
+- A triggered event must be declared with `"C": true`.
+- **DOM/native event** params come via `P` (name-mapped). **Custom event** payload comes via the dataSource (declare the fields you read).
+- Don't duplicate a name in both `P` and a `declare let`/`let` inside `H`.
+- A custom event returns whatever the handler passes to `quick.return(value)`.
+
+## 4. Property events (`PE:true`)
+Become component callback props. Chart formatters are the canonical use:
+```json
+"labelFormatter": { "H": "quick.return(value + '%');", "PE": true,
+  "P": "value:any,context:{ dataIndex:number; dataset:any; }", "HL": "TS" }
+"tooltipLabel": { "H": "quick.return(context.formattedValue + ' - ' + context.label);", "PE": true,
+  "P": "context:{ formattedValue:string; label:string; }", "HL": "TS" }
+```
+
+## 5. External events / parent communication (`EV:true`)
+A page exposes events/props to a parent (e.g. when embedded via `CustomComponent`/`RenderingComponent`) through `Messaging` `ExternalEvents`/`ExternalProps`. The parent calls:
+```ts
+quick.parent.events?.someEvent(args);   // events the child marked EV:true
+quick.parent.props?.someProp;           // props the parent passed in
+```
+
+## 6. Scripting languages & execution
+
+Event handlers use **TypeScript only**: author every `E` handler with `"HL": "TS"`. It is compiled to JavaScript for `cJson`. Do not use `QS`, `JS`, `FL`, or `GUI` for events.
+
+`QS` remains available for **properties/bindings** (`P`); it is not an event-handler language in this authoring model.
+
+- **`quick.return` is exception-based control flow** — that's why native `return` doesn't work in handlers. `quick.return(v)` throws a `quickReturnExc` caught by the evaluator, yielding `v` as the handler result.
+- **Object literals need `};`** before the next statement in a TS handler.
+- **Forbidden browser globals** (`window`, `document`, `console`, `setTimeout`, `setInterval`, `fetch`) — use `quick.EM.trace`, `quick.MM.delay`, `quick.Request.async`, `quick.Quick.download`.
+- Line breaks in `H` are `\r\n`.
+
+## 7. Async / network integration
+- Handlers may `await`; event completion waits for all internal QPromises before firing the completion callback.
+- `quick.Request.async({ url, http, data, responseField, onSuccess, onFail, blockRender })`: on resolve, the `onSuccess` event fires with the response merged into the global `response` object (read `response.<responseField>`); on reject, `onFail` fires with `{ error }` (`error.response`, `error.message`). Both inherit the originating event's immediacy. Full service patterns: [../knowledge/services.md](../knowledge/services.md).
+
+## 8. Common event param signatures
+| Component | Event | `P` |
+|-----------|-------|-----|
+| VBtn / clickable | `click` | `mouseEvent:unknown \| undefined` |
+| inputs (VTextField, …) | `input` / `change` | `value:any` (input) / value (change) |
+| inputs | `blur` | `event:FocusEvent` |
+| VCheckbox / VSwitch | `change` | `value:boolean` |
+| VSelect | `change` | `value:any` |
+| VPagination | `input` | `number:number` (1-based; first line `quick.this.qValue = number;`) |
+| VDialog | `click:outside` | — (set `qValue=false`) |
+| VDataTable | `click:row` | `index:any,row:any` — `index`/`item` is the row data (`IVDataTableClickRow`: `item, headers, isSelected, isExpanded, select, expand`) |
+| charts | `labelFormatter`/`tooltipLabel`/`onClick` | `PE:true` + chart-specific params |
+
+## 9. Compilation
+Authoring rule: the compiler receives event source with `HL:"TS"`, compiles it, and writes JavaScript plus `HL:"JS"` into `cJson`. `QS` is used for property/binding expressions, not event handlers. Errors carry `{componentType, componentId, fieldName, fieldType}`. These script errors surface when the page is compiled — see [../knowledge/validation.md](../knowledge/validation.md).
+
+Practical how-to and the `quick.*` call list: [../knowledge/events-and-scripting.md](../knowledge/events-and-scripting.md) + [quick-api.md](quick-api.md).

+
+> ⚠️ **STOP — before applying any rule below, confirm which style system the target page is on.** Read its root-level `opt.V` (and whether its nodes carry an `S` object): **`opt.V >= 2.0` / has `S` → S system**; **`opt.V` missing or `< 2.0` → legacy**. The two systems are not interchangeable on a page. Unsure how to route? → [index.md Step 0](../index.md).
+>
+> **This file is the `legacy` track** (`O.layout` / `dOpt` / `class` grammar + the `dOpt → class` compilation rule). Authoring flow: [../knowledge/styling-legacy.md](../knowledge/styling-legacy.md). On a new page / `opt.V >= 2.0` instead → grid/flex/spacing are `S` params, see [styling-system.md](styling-system.md).
+>
+> Extracted from the runtime's layout helpers, component interfaces and rendering manager.
+
+## 1. Shape
+
+```ts
+interface ILayoutJson { dOpt: Record<breakpoint, string[]>; class: string; }
+```
+`dOpt` holds prefixed tokens per breakpoint; `class` is the compiled Vuetify class string. **The runtime applies `O.layout.class`** to the element — so `class` must always be kept in sync with `dOpt` (the kit validator derives and checks this).
+
+```json
+"O": { "cType": "slot",
+  "layout": { "dOpt": { "xs": ["d:d-flex","fd:flex-column","c:col-6","sp:pa-4"],
+                        "md": ["fd:flex-row","c:col-4"] },
+              "class": "d-flex flex-column col-6 pa-4 flex-md-row col-md-4" } }
+```
+
+## 2. The dOpt prefix grammar (complete)
+
+| Prefix | Meaning | Valid values |
+|--------|---------|--------------|
+| `d:` | display | `d-flex` (and `d-none` via column `0`) |
+| `fd:` | flex direction | `flex-row`, `flex-column` |
+| `a:` | align-items (cross axis) | `align-start`, `align-end`, `align-center`, `align-stretch`, `align-baseline` |
+| `j:` | justify-content (main axis) | `justify-start`, `justify-end`, `justify-center`, `justify-space-between`, `justify-space-around` |
+| `w:` | flex wrap | `flex-nowrap`, `flex-wrap` |
+| `c:` | grid column | `d-none` (=0), `col-1`…`col-12`, `col-auto` |
+| `sp:` | spacing | `mt-N mr-N mb-N ml-N ma-N pt-N pr-N pb-N pl-N pa-N` (N is the Vuetify step; ≈ `N×4px`; negative margins `mt-n1` etc.) |
+| `tt:` | text typography | `text-h1`…`text-h6`, `text-subtitle-1/2`, `text-body-1/2`, `text-button`, `text-caption`, `text-overline` |
+| `tc:` | text color | `primary--text`, `secondary--text`, `accent--text`, `success--text`, `error--text`, `info--text`, `warning--text` |
+| `te:` | text emphasis (weight) | `font-weight-black/bold/medium/regular/light/thin` |
+| `fi:` | font italic | `font-italic` |
+
+A token may carry comma-separated values: `te:font-weight-bold,font-italic` → both classes.
+
+> This corrects earlier notes: the real prefix set is `d, fd, a, j, w, c, sp, tt, tc, te, fi` (there is **no** `ai:` prefix; align-self is not part of this grammar — use `a:` for align-items).
+
+## 3. dOpt → class compilation (`getOptionsClass`)
+
+The algorithm (must be replicated exactly to keep `class` correct):
+
+1. For the **`xs`** breakpoint: strip the prefix and use the token's class value **as-is** (`fd:flex-column` → `flex-column`, `c:col-6` → `col-6`, `sp:pa-4` → `pa-4`).
+2. For **`sm`/`md`/`lg`/`xl`**: strip the prefix, then **insert the breakpoint after the first `-`**: `flex-column` → `flex-md-column`, `col-6` → `col-md-6`, `pa-4` → `pa-md-4`, `mr-10` → `mr-md-10`, `align-center` → `align-md-center`.
+3. Join all with spaces in dOpt order.
+
+```
+dOpt { xs:["fd:flex-row"], md:["fd:flex-column","c:col-6"] }
+→ class "flex-row flex-md-column col-md-6"
+```
+
+So `class` is NOT simply the flattened tokens — non-`xs` breakpoints get the infixed Vuetify-responsive form. The kit validator implements this rule.
+
+## 4. Breakpoints (device ranges)
+
+
+| Key | Device | Min px | Max px |
+|-----|--------|--------|--------|
+| `xs` | Mobile | 0 | 600 |
+| `sm` | Tablet | 600 | 960 |
+| `md` | Laptop | 960 | 1264 |
+| `lg` | Desktop | 1264 | 1904 |
+| `xl` | TV | 1904 | ∞ |
+
+`xs` is the base (applies everywhere); larger breakpoints override from their min width up. `S` (Style tab) uses **ranges** (`"xs-xl"`); `dOpt` uses **single** breakpoints.
+
+## 4b. Containment rules (editor-enforced)
+These are the editor's own drop rules (`acceptableParentComps`/`acceptableChildComps`; `VCol` additionally must always have a parent). The editor blocks violating drops; Vuetify runtime is lenient (existing files may violate and still render), so the kit validator reports these as **warnings**. Machine-readable copy: [component-index.json](component-index.json) `containmentRules`.
+
+| Rule | From |
+|------|------|
+| `VCol` must be a child of `VRow`; cannot be at page root | `VColExtension.acceptableParentComps={VRow}` + `restrictedComponents` + `layout.md` |
+| `VRow` accepts only `VCol` children | `VRowExtension.acceptableChildComps={VCol}` |
+| `VFooter` accepts only `VContainer` children | `VFooterExtension.acceptableChildComps={VContainer}` |
+
+Other components have no hard accept-list, but container components with item parts use fixed child generators (place `VTab`/`VTabItem` in `VTabs`, `VStepperStep`/`VStepperContent` in `VStepper`, etc.). Canonical page wrapper: `VContainer > VRow > VCol > content`. For a **newly-created page this `VContainer` content root is required**: wrap all UI content in a single top-level `VContainer`, with only `Messaging` and an optional service component as other top-level `pJson` siblings. This is a **new-page rule only** — do **not** retrofit a `VContainer` root onto an existing page unless the user explicitly asks (existing pages may legitimately root on `VAppBar`, `VDataTable`, etc.). Machine-readable: [component-index.json](component-index.json) `containmentRules`.
+
+## 5. The grid: VContainer → VRow → VCol
+
+- **VContainer**: page/layout wrapper (`fluid`, `noGutters`, `eager`); applies its compiled class to a div.
+- **VRow**: flex row; default `display:flex; flex-wrap:wrap; align-items:stretch`; default margins 0.
+- **VCol**: a grid column; default padding 12px; supports its own `layout-chooser` (nested flex). Column width via `c:col-N`.
+
+12-column model: `col-1`…`col-12` (fraction of row), `col-auto` (fit content), column value `0` → `d-none` (hidden).
+
+(Migrating this grid width / `S`-system equivalents to `S`: [mapping-S-vuetify-class.md](mapping-S-vuetify-class.md).)
+
+## 6. Authoring checklist — legacy
+
+- Put layout tokens in `dOpt` keyed by breakpoint (`xs` base + overrides).
+- Compile `class` per §3 (xs as-is; others infixed). Keep them in sync.
+- Size columns with `c:col-N` on `VCol`; sum toward 12 per row.
+- Spacing via `sp:` tokens; typography utility via `tt:`/`te:`/`tc:` (or precise fonts via `S`).

+# S ↔ Vuetify v2 class mapping table
+
+> **This table serves two purposes:** (1) *understanding* what a class token on a `cssClass`/legacy page means, and (2) translating class/`dOpt` tokens into `S` params when *migrating* a legacy page to the `S` system. On an `S`-system page (a new page, or `opt.V >= 2.0`) author the design directly in `S` — see [../knowledge/styling.md](../knowledge/styling.md). For authoring a legacy page see [../knowledge/styling-legacy.md](../knowledge/styling-legacy.md).
+>
+> **RULE:** never write a style in `class` when you have written it in `S`. If
+> both are present, **remove the class token** (`S` is the source of truth). This

+> audit applies to these alone.
+>
+> **Spacing formula:** a Vuetify `N` value = `N × 4px`

+> `paddingTop: "12px"` ↔ `pa-3`.
+>
+> For Vuetify **v2**.
+
+## 1. Spacing (padding / margin)
+
+| Class token | `S` equivalent |

+| `pa-N` | `paddingTop` + `paddingBottom` + `paddingLeft` + `paddingRight` = `"Npx"` |
+| `px-N` | `paddingLeft` + `paddingRight` = `"Npx"` |

+| `ma-N` | `marginTop` + `marginBottom` + `marginLeft` + `marginRight` = `"Npx"` |

+| `my-N` | `marginTop` + `marginBottom` = `"Npx"` |
+| `mt-N` / `mb-N` / `ml-N` / `mr-N` | `marginTop` / `marginBottom` / `marginLeft` / `marginRight` = `"Npx"` |
+| `mx-auto` | `marginLeft` + `marginRight` = `"auto"` |
+| `mt-nN` … (negative) | the matching margin = `"-Npx"` |
+
+## 2. Size
+
+| Class token | `S` equivalent |
+|---|---|
+| `fill-height` | `height: "100%"` |
+
+> Note: Vuetify v2 has no `w-100`/`h-100`. Width/height always come from `S`:

+## 3. Layout / Flex (flex containers only: VCol / VRow / VContainer)
+
+| Class token | `S` equivalent |

+| Theme color classes (`primary`, `red lighten-2`, … — background) | `backgroundColor` (when the color is set in `S`) |
+
+## 6. Grid column width (`O.layout` `c:col-N` → `S.col`)
+
+| Legacy (`O.layout` / `dOpt`) | `S` system (on `VCol`) |
+| --- | --- |
+| `c:col-N` → `col-N` class | `S: { "xs-xl": { "col": "N" } }` |

+| `P.cols` / `P.sm` / `P.md` / `P.lg` / `P.xl` props | The `S` range pattern above — don't use these props |
+
+`col` is a real `S` param on `VCol` (see the `VCol` block in `component-styles.json`). It does not exist as an `S` param on `VRow`, `VCard` or `VContainer`.
+
+### Historical relationship — `O.layout` (dOpt) vs `S` layout params
+
+The two coexisted like this while `O.layout` was still authored; for new pages that no longer applies — **everything goes in `S`**:
+
+- `VCol`'s style schema includes a `layout-chooser`/`content-direction` group, which is why `flexDirection`, `alignItems`, `justifyContent` and `col` are real `S` params specifically on `VCol` — they determine the rendered flex axis. The editor migration (`fd:`→`flexDirection`, `a:`→`alignItems`, `j:`→`justifyContent`) is an editor-side path for old `O.layout` data, not something to rely on for newly hand-authored `pJson`.
+- If `S.flexDirection` is left empty, `VCol` falls back to the row axis (the `"default": "column"` in `component-styles.json` is only the Style tab's pre-filled suggestion, not a value silently applied when the key is absent). A `VCol` with more than one visible child must set `S.flexDirection: "column"` explicitly to stack them.
+- `VRow`/`VCard`/`VContainer` have no `flexDirection`/`alignItems`/`justifyContent` `S` param. If the design needs something the `S` schema can't express, the fallback is the component's own `class` prop — **Web only, last resort** — with no Mobile equivalent; restructure with an `S`-capable component (usually `VCol`) instead.
+- Never express the same layout in two conflicting ways (e.g. in an old file, a legacy `O.layout` row and `S.flexDirection: column` on the same `VCol`).
+
+## No `S` equivalent (leave them alone)
+
+For information — these tokens have no counterpart in `S`; exclude them from the conflict audit:
+
+`text-uppercase / lowercase / capitalize` (no `textTransform` in `S`),
+`text-truncate`, `text-no-wrap`,
+`d-none / d-block / d-inline` (visibility; unrelated to `S` sizing),
+`flex-grow-* / flex-shrink-*`, `order-*`, `overflow-*`,
+responsive/breakpoint variants (`d-md-flex`, `pa-md-4` etc. — in `S`,
+breakpoints are handled separately via resolution ranges).

+## 1. File envelope (`IQJSon`)
+
+A `.qjson` file is a JS module exporting `pjson`:
+
+```javascript
+let pjson = {
+  "pJson": [],     // ICompJson[]  — authored component tree (you write this)
+  "lrids": {},     // ILRID        — localization you write, by language code
+  "opt": {}        // IQJsonOptions
+};
+export default pjson
+```
+
+An **AI-authored file carries only these three keys** (`pJson`, `lrids`, `opt`). The compiled twins `cJson` (compiled tree) and `clrids` (compiled localization) are generated by the editor/compiler on import — **omit them entirely**: never write them into a new file, and strip them from any existing file you edit.
+
+Full `IQJSon` interface fields:
+
+| Key | Type | Authored? | Notes |
+|-----|------|-----------|-------|
+| `pJson` | `ICompJson[]` | **you** | the component tree |
+| `cJson` | `ICompJson[]` | generated | compiled twin of pJson; **absent in AI-authored files** (omit/strip — Studio regenerates it) |
+| `lrids` | `ILRID` | **you** | `{ "tr-TR": {key:"'val'"}, ... }` |
+| `clrids` | `ILRID` | generated | compiled localization; **absent in AI-authored files** (omit/strip — Studio regenerates it) |
+| `opt` | `IQJsonOptions` | optional | page options (below) |
+| `description` | `string` | optional | page description |
+| `files` / `cFiles` | `Record<string,string>` | optional | TS 2.0 external handler files (`HF`) and compiled twins |
+| `namedViews` | `Record<string, IQView>` | optional | additional named views (advanced) |
+
+`IQJsonOptions` (`opt`):
+
+| Field | Meaning |
+|-------|---------|
+| `QL` | QJSON default scripting language (`ScriptLang`). Event handlers still use explicit `HL:"TS"`; properties/bindings may use `HL:"QS"`. |
+| `V` | schema version number. **On a legacy page this is missing or `< 2.0`** — that is what makes `S` not render. Do not bump it as a side effect of an edit. |
+| `otelDiag` / `otelChannel` | telemetry tags |
+
+> `ScriptLang = "QS" | "JS" | "TS" | "FL" | "GUI"`. `QS`=QScript, `TS`=TypeScript, `JS`=plain JS (passthrough), `FL`=Flow (visual), `GUI`=editor-generated.
+
+AI-authoring convention: an authored file carries three keys (`pJson`, `lrids`, `opt`) and **omits `cJson`/`clrids` entirely**; the editor/compiler fills the compiled twins on import/save. The file must close with `};` then `export default pjson`.
+
+## 2. Component node (`ICompJson`)
+
+```ts
+interface ICompJson {
+  T: string;                        // component type name (see component-catalog-legacy.md)
+  CP?: string;                      // CompPath for a Named component
+  P: IPropJson;                     // properties (ID is required)
+  E: IDictionary<IEventJson>;       // events
+  C: IDictionary<IChildJson>;       // children grouped by slot name
+  D?: Record<string, Record<string, IDirectiveJson>>;  // directives (advanced)
+  O?: IOptJson;                     // options (cType, layout) — layout is where design lives here
+  SA?: Array<string>;               // (S-system field — not authored on legacy pages)
+  S?: StyleValue;                   // (S-system field — does NOT render on legacy pages)
+  SC?: IStyleChild;                 // (S-system field — not authored on legacy pages)
+  _Editor: IEditorJson;             // { eID: string }
+}
+```
+
+Required for a valid node: `T`, `P.ID.H`, `_Editor.eID`, and **`C`** (use `{}` for leaf components — omitting `C` is an error). `E` is typically present (often `{}`). `O` carries `cType` and — on legacy pages — `layout`, which is the design mechanism (§6).
+
+### Styling on legacy pages: `O.layout` + CSS classes (NOT `S`)
+The `S`/`SA`/`SC` fields exist in the schema (they're the modern Style-tab mechanism), but on a legacy page the runtime does **not** render `S` — so **do not author it**. Design is expressed two ways:
+
+- **`O.layout`** (`dOpt` + compiled `class`) — grid width, flex direction/align/justify, spacing (§6).
+- **The `class` prop** — CSS utility classes for typography, color, elevation, rounding.
+
+Full guidance: [../knowledge/styling-legacy.md](../knowledge/styling-legacy.md). Introducing `S` here would silently break styling — keep to the mechanism the page already uses. (A deliberate migration to `S` is a separate, opt-in task — conversion table: [mapping-S-vuetify-class.md](mapping-S-vuetify-class.md).)
+
+`CP` (CompPath for Named components) and `D` (directives) are advanced/editor-managed; hand-authoring rarely needs them.
+
+### `_Editor.eID`
+`{ "eID": "<id>" }` — the editor's stable internal id. It is **equal to `P.ID.H` for auto-generated components** (both `EdtrComp_42`) but **may differ** when the ID is renamed in Studio (real files contain both: e.g. `ID:"PageComp"` with `eID:"EdtrComp_1"`). So equality is not required. Rules that ARE required: both `P.ID.H` and `_Editor.eID` must be present and unique per page. When hand-authoring a new component, setting `eID` = `ID` (one unique value) is the simplest valid choice.
+
+## 3. Properties (`IPropJson` / `IPropertyJson`)
+
+```ts
+interface IPropertyJson {
+  H: string | object;   // value/expression (the "handler")
+  T: PTyped;            // "prop" | "class" | "text" | "attr"
+  DE?: boolean;         // Don't-Evaluate: use H literally, skip script evaluation
+  HF?: string;          // external handler file (TS 2.0)
+  HL?: ScriptLang;      // property language; QS is permitted and is the default for property expressions
+}
+```
+
+`PType` enum (how the value is applied at render):
+
+| `T` | Destination | Use for |
+|-----|-------------|---------|
+| `"prop"` | Vue component prop | the common case (`color`, `label`, `visible`, `items`, `QLabel.text`) |
+| `"class"` | CSS class string | `class` — a **primary styling mechanism on legacy pages** (typography/color/elevation utilities) |
+| `"text"` | component slot **text content** | `VIcon` icon name; raw text content |
+| `"attr"` | DOM attribute | `data-*`, `aria-*`, masks like `format` |
+
+Value quoting inside `H` (QScript expression semantics):
+- String → single-quoted: `"'primary'"`
+- Number/boolean → bare: `"10"`, `"true"`
+- Expression/binding → bare: `"item.name"`, `"data.title"`, `"components.x.qValue"`
+- Array → `"[1,2,3]"`; QScript object literals use `=` keys: `"[{text='A', value=1}]"`
+
+`IPropJson` reserves `ID` (required, `IDefinedPropertyJson` — `H` is a plain string), plus `Render`, `DiscardSettings`, `class`.
+
+## 4. Events (`IEventJson`)
+
+```ts
+interface IEventJson {
+  H: string | IQuickFlowModel;  // handler code (TS/QScript text), or a Flow model
+  P?: string;   // params. QS: "x,y,z" 
+  HF?: string;  // external handler file (TS 2.0)
+  I?: boolean;  // immediate (run synchronously during render — used by lifecycle init)
+  C?: boolean;  // custom event (triggered via quick.MM.trigger)
+  PE?: boolean; // property event (fires on a property change; charts use this)
+  TO?: number;  // post-render trigger order
+  EV?: boolean; // externally visible (callable from a parent/other qjson)
+  HL: "TS";        // event handlers use TS only
+  SM?: string;  // source map (debug)
+}
+```
+
+- Event handler text uses `\r\n` line breaks.
+- Custom events you call with `quick.MM.trigger('name', [payload])` must be declared with `"C": true`.
+- Events callable from another page/parent need `"EV": true`.
+- Lifecycle init events are often marked `"I": true`.
+- Use `quick.return` (never native `return`); see [scripting knowledge](../knowledge/events-and-scripting.md).
+
+## 5. Children & slots (`IChildJson` / `CType`)
+
+```ts
+interface IChildJson { cType: CTyped; c: Array<ICompJson>; }
+enum CType { child = "child", slot = "slot", scopedSlot = "scopedSlot" }
+```
+
+`C` is keyed by **slot name**:
+
+```json
+"C": {
+  "default":      { "c": [ ...children... ], "cType": "slot" },
+  "item.actions": { "c": [ ...per-row cells... ], "cType": "scopedSlot" }
+}
+```
+
+| `cType` | Meaning (from source) |
+|---------|------------------------|
+| `"slot"` | normal named slot |
+| `"child"` | direct/structural child (Messaging, service components, Ghost) |
+| `"scopedSlot"` | callback slot receiving per-item data (`VDataTable` `item.<col>` — `item` available in child bindings) |
+
+## 6. Options (`IOptJson`) — `O.layout` is the design mechanism here
+
+```ts
+interface IOptJson {
+  cType?: CTyped;                       // matches the node's slot context
+  dynProps?: boolean;                   // dynamic-prop component (e.g. CustomComponent)
+  CL?: ScriptLang;                      // component language (defaults to QS)
+  forceUpdateAfterPropertySetting?: boolean;
+  compDomClasses?: string;              // editor-rendered DOM class string (editor-managed)
+  layout?: ILayoutJson;                 // grid/flex/spacing — the layout mechanism on legacy pages
+}
+interface ILayoutJson { dOpt: IDictionary<Array<string>>; class: string; }
+```
+
+- **`O.layout` is how you lay out a legacy page.** `dOpt` holds prefixed Vuetify tokens keyed by breakpoint (`d:`/`fd:`/`a:`/`j:`/`c:`/`sp:`/`tt:`/`tc:`/`te:`/`fi:`); `class` is the compiled Vuetify class string the runtime actually applies, and it must be kept **in sync** with `dOpt` (the compilation rule: `xs` tokens as-is, `sm/md/lg/xl` tokens infix the breakpoint after the first `-`).
+- Grid width → `c:col-N`; flex direction/align/justify → `fd:`/`a:`/`j:`; spacing → `sp:`. Full prefix grammar + the `dOpt → class` compilation algorithm are in [layout-system.md](layout-system.md); the practical authoring flow is in [../knowledge/styling-legacy.md](../knowledge/styling-legacy.md).
+- Do **not** author the `S` object here — it will not render on `V < 2`. (New page, or `opt.V >= 2.0`? You are in the wrong doc — see [qjson-schema.md](qjson-schema.md).)
+
+## 7. Compiled form (`cJson`) — do not author
+
+When compiled, handler `H` values get wrapped with sentinel delimiters (e.g. `╬...╩╩`) and `cJson`/`clrids` are populated. **AI-authored files omit `cJson`/`clrids` entirely** — never write them into a new file, and strip them from any existing file you edit. Author `pJson`/`lrids`; the editor regenerates the compiled twins on import. See [validation](../knowledge/validation-legacy.md).
+
+## 8. Minimal valid node
+
+```json
+{
+  "T": "QLabel",
+  "P": { "ID": { "H": "lblTitle", "T": "prop" },
+         "text": { "H": "'Hello'", "T": "prop" } },
+  "E": {}, "C": {},
+  "O": { "cType": "slot" },
+  "_Editor": { "eID": "lblTitle" }
+}
+```
