UI: unify Material icons across ARSAS navigation, onboarding and primary toolbars

[masarray]

Operator visual consistency / source-of-truth

Exact head 9e89b20707b547d80200e3b1e0dd7e0fd4f2e7a8. Based on Draft PR #574 (Events duplication fix) b725268f; no merges to main, no engine pin, IEC acquisition, server enablement or control changes.

Changes

• One centrally declared local set of 26 canonical Google Material Icons (24dp, filled SVG geometry converted to WPF) in App.xaml; styles and action templates shared across WPF. Official source: google/material-design-icons; Apache-2.0 attribution, full license and redistribution packaging added. No icon font/CDN/runtime asset retrieval.
• Eight navigation destinations now each own exactly one Material-family glyph. Four preexisting operator-supplied Material Symbols SVG geometries retained verbatim (Events, Alarm, FAT, Browser); Explorer, Live, GOOSE and Diagnostics now use official Google Material. Diagnostics live alert badge remains.
• Events duplicate remains fixed by PR M2.14 UI: remove double Events glyph from overlapping icon templates #574 idempotent P2 decorator. Templates for 16 industrial shared actions now use Material resources rather than Lucide outlines. Toolbar buttons previously text-only obtain one icon through ContentTemplate without changing Content/Tag/Click/binding behavior (Read, Read All, Refresh, Cancel, Browse, RCB, Export, Copy, ACK, etc).
• Add IED in center uses the exact existing OperatorAddIedIcon as left-rail, fixed in both dynamic launcher builders MainWindow.IoTesting.cs and MainWindow.ExplorerHeroActions.cs, and first-run repair fallback. Old LucidePlus no longer appears in any launcher, and new filled style replaces outline glyph style.
• NTP stays ONE composite clock + server Material symbol, with toggle, picker and activity status untouched.
• Existing MainWindow magnifier/save/play/stop/edit/tune/open/refresh assets now reference Material, replacing visible mixed Lucide icons. P2 legacy geometry definitions remain only for compatibility with older consumers; rendered templates are Material.
• Regression added for 8 glyph owners/indices, 26 geometry parse/uniqueness, old P2 templates, dynamic Add IED paths, toolbar action mapping, NTP single icon/behavior and license packaging.

Gate and limits

• Require exact-SHA Windows full regression + native ArdIrec/CTest, portable single EXE smoke, CI.
• This is the operator MainWindow, onboarding and shared P2 workbench consistency pass; deeply nested specialized windows will retain existing vector resources unless explicitly migrated/verified. No styling changes to domain DataGrid values, report q/t, control semantics or runtime SSOT.
• Physical visual check required on Windows at typical scaling / window resize; tests do not prove a screenshot visually.

M2.14 Material Icons — FINAL exact-SHA CI checkpoint (2026-10-15)

• HEAD 7a761feecbda9f943b6078a2a595b8e95295578f; 14/14 workflows SUCCESS, no failed or pending.
• Windows build + native/portable smoke: SUCCESS on exact HEAD.
• Regression: ARSAS 1,984 passed/0 failed, pinned ARIEC 19/19, packaged managed 6/6. New eight-icon, launcher, P2, Material Geometry, NTP and license tests passed.
• Native ArdIrec CTest, package seal and portable single EXE smoke: SUCCESS.
• Portable EXE: https://github.com/masarray/arsas/actions/runs/38687477045/artifacts/11950459044
• Installer validation: https://github.com/masarray/arsas/actions/runs/38687477114 — SUCCESS including compiled package + silent install & field runtime smoke.
• Installer artifact (not public release): https://github.com/masarray/arsas/actions/runs/38687477114/artifacts/11950594336
• Package-input provenance artifact: https://github.com/masarray/arsas/actions/runs/38687477045/artifacts/11950488915
• Test evidence: https://github.com/masarray/arsas/actions/runs/38687477045/artifacts/11950453786
• The old CI script initially asserted obsolete Lucide Stop/Remove glyph names; guard now checks unchanged semantic colors on Material Stop/Remove, without disabling the invariant. Prior regression also assumed the old Lucide pencil/settings; old tests were reconciled and migrated to new Material identities.
• Operator DPI/screenshot acceptance pending: compare Events one glyph after resize, all 8 tabs, Add IED center/left sameness, NTP composite, icons in IED card, Browser controls.
• The migration fully covers MainWindow navigation/onboarding/command affordances and shared P2 workbench templates. Deep specialized dialogs may still use legacy resources and require a separately scoped inventory before claiming 100% global app coverage.
• This is a Draft engineering candidate. No public main merge, release publishing, IEC engine pin or protocol/action semantic changes.

M2.14 Engineering Browser response to physical screenshots — Draft PR #577, head 4be7b51b9040a7a5f1d8ecaa1d90bbc1a3b9d081, based on exact #575 head 7a761feecbda. User's ZIV/BCUGE screenshot shows raw FC names (phsA [MX], phsA [CF], phsA [DC]) as peer rows and giant A/PhV concatenated value despite canonical leaf availability. This is a Browser projection, not a protocol decoding or SSOT reset issue.

#577 groups duplicate DO declarations by exact IEC DO reference+name only, preserves original FC-qualified attributes and ambiguous CDC metadata, renders one lazy phase node with MX/CF/DC children, and bounds DO three-phase preview while keeping neutral/net/res accessible upon expansion. Regression tests added. Windows CI is currently running, physical GUI acceptance pending. We did not touch UI icon files, WPF main layout, pinned engine, canonical ledger, RCB/GI, or SSOT. #576 remains an unrelated sibling UI branch and should not be overwritten. Coordinate any further IED Browser model projection changes through #577 to avoid parallel source edits.

M2.14 GUI hierarchy correction CI gate — exact-SHA PASS. Draft PR #577 head 4be7b51b9040a7a5f1d8ecaa1d90bbc1a3b9d081, based on #575 7a761feecbda, has Build ARSAS #38691118674 Success: 1,988/1,988 ARSAS, 19/19 pinned engine, 9/9 native CTest, 6/6 packaged managed tests; sealed portable ARSAS-win-x64-portable-single-exe artifact 11952551019, matching exact HEAD and unexpired. Nine of ten workflow runs were confirmed success when last checked; Field Capture still running.

Implementation is Browser-only: duplicate DO declarations coalesced by exact reference/name (no cross-IED or FC borrowing), FC types stay separated under one structured phsA node, and the top-level A/PhV preview stops dumping neutral/net/res into one line. Canonical live values and #570 no-angle-on-scalar behavior unchanged. The paired angle still requires matching source/time/association. Please base subsequent GUI hierarchy work on #577 instead of modifying ancestor branch; Thread A owns CF/unit and communication SSOT. Physical ZIV/BCUGE acceptance and DataSet multi-leaf Not read issue remain open.

UI icon delivery checkpoint — 2026-10-15 (handoff / safe close of this thread)

• Primary WPF operator icon migration COMPLETE at exact source SHA 7a761feecbda9f943b6078a2a595b8e95295578f with 14/14 workflows SUCCESS. Eight main tab icons use a single consistent Material-family geometry; duplicate Events glyph from M2.14 UI: remove double Events glyph from overlapping icon templates #574 remains eliminated. MainWindow/P2 workbench action icons and all center/left rail + first-run Add IED paths use Material. NTP remains one deliberate clock+server composite icon.

• PR M2.14 UI: unify navigation and first-run Add IED on Material icon system #576 is a separate narrower sibling UI attempt. Its relevant eight-tabs/Add IED behavior is already covered by this PR; do not blindly merge both or reintroduce old ContentTemplates. Keep workstream branches for rollback, no main promotion without approval.
• Remaining out-of-scope app-wide secondary-dialog icon inventory recorded in UI follow-up: finish Material icon inventory in specialized dialogs and legacy P2 search #578 UI follow-up: finish Material icon inventory in specialized dialogs and legacy P2 search #578; actual Windows visual acceptance (100/125/150% DPI and Events after resize) pending. Do not describe entire app as completely migrated just because main UI passes CI.
• This delivery requires no further source changes for primary header/hero/toolbar icons. No IEC logic/engine pin or public main changes.
