Points are packed via a nearest-free-slot algorithm, producing a beeswarm-like shape that widens where scores cluster and narrows at the tails, with no point overlap. Category labels (Engineering, Sales, Support, Marketing) sit under the x-axis. - Legibility verdict: PASS — no light-on-light or unreadable text anywhere. + Background: Warm off-white, consistent with #FAF8F1 — not pure white, not dark. + Chrome: Bold centered title "swarm-basic · julia · makie · anyplot.ai" in dark ink; soft-ink subtitle "Support leads with the highest median score (83)"; axis titles "Department" / "Performance Score (0-100)" and tick labels all in dark/soft-ink tones, fully readable. Subtle horizontal-only gridlines every 10 units. + Data: Four beeswarm columns — Engineering=#009E73 (first series, brand green confirmed), Sales=#C475FD lavender, Support=#4467A3 blue, Marketing=#BD8233 ochre. Solid median line per department, bolder for Support (the leader). + Legibility verdict: PASS Dark render (plot-dark.png): - Background: Warm near-black, matches #1A1A17, not pure black and not light. - Chrome: Title, axis labels, and tick labels flip to light/off-white and soft-gray tones respectively; median lines flip from dark to white for contrast against the dark background; gridlines remain subtle (theme-adaptive low-alpha light lines); spines match the light-render layout (left/bottom only). - Data: Colors are pixel-identical to the light render — same brand green, lavender, blue, and ochre hues, same swarm shapes and median-line positions — confirming only chrome (not data) changed between themes. - Legibility verdict: PASS — no dark-on-dark failures; all text and median-line markers are clearly visible against the near-black background. + Background: Warm near-black, consistent with #1A1A17 — not pure black, not light. + Chrome: Title, subtitle, axis titles, and tick labels flip to light/soft-light ink and remain fully legible; gridlines and median lines switch to light tone appropriate for dark surface. No dark-on-dark failures found. + Data: Colors identical to light render (#009E73/#C475FD/#4467A3/#BD8233) — only chrome flipped, confirmed by direct comparison. + Legibility verdict: PASS criteria_checklist: visual_quality: - score: 28 + score: 29 max: 30 items: - id: VQ-01 name: Text Legibility - score: 7 + score: 8 max: 8 passed: true - comment: Title/axis/tick sizes explicitly set (titlesize=20, xlabelsize/ylabelsize=16, - tick=13);
