The frontend sizes a DOM widget's wrapper as widget.width ?? node.width
(GraphView, useDomWidget updateWidgets), and LiteGraph's layout plants
widget.width during draws. Once planted it outranks the node width
forever: resize the node narrower and the wrapper keeps the old width,
parking the panel's right edge - and the LoRA row's strength and info
controls - outside the border. None of the containment guards could
reach it: border-box and the overflow clip act at the wrapper's edge,
which is precisely the thing that is too wide, and the minimum-width
paths only stop the node going BELOW a floor, not the wrapper staying
ABOVE the node.
Diagnosed from a console measurement in the reporting browser (wrapper
styled 470px on a 328px node, scale 1.21) and reproduced exactly by
planting widget.width = 470: overflow +183px. keepDomWidgetWidthAuto
defines width as a discard-writes accessor, so the frontend's lookup
stays on its node-width fallback for the life of the widget. All six
DOM panels call it, the policy test requires it, and the fix was
verified end-to-end in a live classic-renderer session: with the plant
attempted, the wrapper tracked the node through narrow, add-row,
linked, grow and shrink at -13px inside the border throughout.
The audit behind the LoRA fix found two residual gaps and closed the
policy hole that let them hide. Frame Chooser declared its minimum
width to the modern layout but not through options.minNodeSize, the
path older frontends read - so on those, the node could still be
resized under the panel, which holds MIN_WIDTH and pokes past the
border exactly like the LoRA row did; the overflow clip cannot help
there because it cuts at the panel's edge, not the node's. The
input-preview thumbnail now clips at its root as well, making every
root uniform.
The policy test now requires the full set of every resizable panel:
border-box and an overflow clip reaching the root class (a blanket
group selector counts), plus a minimum width on BOTH layout paths -
computeLayoutSize for modern frontends and options.minNodeSize for
older ones. Against main's pre-fix LoRA file it fails 4 of 6, and
stashing the chooser change fails 1, so both halves are proven to
catch what they were written for.
