  "assumed": "with a front and a side photo, the turn is a box on its hook: the front foreshortened by cos θ on the leading side, the side by sin θ on the trailing side, both opaque.",

  },
  "check": "draw one piece at 24 angles from 0 to 90° at 2×: between 35° and 55° the box drew two jackets; the perspective turn draws one outline in every cell, with no detached line next to it.",
  "evidence": "single-piece strips of the varsity, leather, puffer and denim jackets at 24 angles, 2× crops checked for detached lines (commit ac5146e).",
  "fix": "the front turns with `rotateY(-φ)` (a front turning to face left brings its right edge towards you); its edge is the front's own outline pushed back by 4.5% of its width and darkened, behind it; φ runs until front and edge are 88% as wide as the side photo; between 81° and 89° a wipe of two clipping boxes hands over to the side photo. Every picture is opaque in every frame.",
  "format": 2,
  "happened": "near each end one face was a sliver, and the two outlines did not meet along a straight fold (sleeves, hems and collars differ), so the sliver floated beside the other face as a stray line. Sliding the thinner face under the other removed most slivers and showed the real fault: between 35° and 55° the composite drew two jackets side by side. A first perspective turn with a squeezed copy of the picture as its edge read as a second, thin jacket, and it turned the wrong way, so its leading edge stood out past the side photo at the hand-over.",

  "rule": "If a box built from a front and a side photo shows two garments side by side mid-turn, turn the front alone in perspective with a drawn edge, then hand over to the side photo.",
  "site": "https://upfork.dev",
  "snippet": "```ts\n// before: a box on its hook, both photos at once\nconst front = [{ translateX: f.frontShift }, { scaleX: Math.cos(th * DEG) }];\nconst side = [{ translateX: f.sideShift }, { scaleX: Math.sin(th * DEG) }];\n// after: one silhouette at a time; the front turns (its right edge comes towards you as it\n// faces left), then a short wipe near 81-89° hands over to the side photo at the same width\nconst front = [{ perspective: 900 }, { rotateY: `${-perspectiveTurn(geo, th).phi}deg` }];\nconst side = [{ translateX: -geo.hs * geo.ws }]; // still; shown through the wipe's clip\n```",
  "title": "Two photos of a whole garment are not two faces of a box: turn the front in perspective, then hand over to the side",

  "version": 1,
  "why": "each photo is a full view of the garment (front panel, sleeve and all), not one face of a box, so two of them shown at once are two garments."
