Tommaso was not sure about the ring and proposed a vertical list: left-click selects, right-click exposes icon / name / shortcut. Drawn, it is better, and the reasons are visible in the renders rather than arguable. THE DISABLED ROW CAN SPEAK. This is the one that decides it. A ring slot that does not apply is an empty circle: it says nothing, and on a fresh document six of the eight are empty. A list row that does not apply is greyed IN PLACE with its own name and its own reason — "Create a sketch, or pick a solid face, first", "Create a solid body to pattern first" — which are strings the product already ships and which tool_atlas.json already carries. The first-run picture stops being a mostly-empty ring and becomes a map of what the product does and what you must do first. For the audience section 2 puts first, that is the whole ballgame. THE OVERFLOW DISAPPEARS. Sketch Create needs nine addresses; a ring of eight pushed Polygon and Point behind a "More" slot. Nine rows is just nine rows. The one measured defect in the ring design is not a defect in this one. SHORTCUTS READ AS A COLUMN. Right-aligned in a list they stack into something the eye learns passively, which is exactly the graduation path 4.1 claims — and it is the mechanism by which the power user Tommaso describes stops opening the menu at all. Around a ring the same keys are eight loose chips. Also, unglamorously: long translated names fit, arrow keys and screen readers work natively where a radial needs special handling, and a 324px box costs the 1366x768 machine far less than a 380px disc over the model. What the ring keeps: equidistant targets and a future flick gesture. Since the brief is that power users live on the keyboard, that buys less than it looks. The invariant is untouched — same eight families, same fixed order, nothing re-sorted, nothing compacted. Only the geometry changed, which is the point: the map survived a change of form factor, so it was a real map. Both forms are now rendered side by side for the same states, and the atlas opens with the pairs. snaporca-96r.
