Inclusion rule. All 24 board tools on the register; a tool whose pages pass over this field reads as silent. Order. Alphabetical by tool name.

1What this field covers

This field records how one panel is changed without redoing the board. 5 tools redraw the whole panel, 7 change it through its text or prompt, 4 edit a marked part of it, and the rest use settings, linked panels, the planner's own images or a human sketch artist. 3 are silent.

A region edit and a redraw solve different problems. Redrawing is right when the panel is wrong; a region edit is right when the panel is nearly right and one detail is not, a hand, a prop, an angle.
