 # Changelog
 
+## v0.9.3 — 2026-09-29 08:20
+- Layout (#21): only the middle column scrolls now — the app is pinned to the viewport (`height: 100vh` + `overflow: hidden` on the root in wide mode) so body-level scrolling no longer moves the side panes. Left/right columns keep their existing `overflow-y: auto`, so any overflowing content (e.g. a long planet list) scrolls inside its own track instead.
+- Added `min-height: 0` to the BODY wrapper and the 3-column grid — flex/grid items default to a content-based minimum size, which is what let the page grow past the viewport before.
+- The middle OPERATIONS panel became a flex column with its PanelContent as the scroll area (`flex: 1; min-height: 0; overflow-y: auto`): long tab content scrolls inside the panel while the "OPERATIONS // SHIP COMMAND" header stays pinned — without this, the Panel root's default `overflow: hidden` would have clipped it.
+- Narrow layout (<900px) is unchanged: stacked columns with natural body scroll (the viewport pin applies to wide mode only).
+- e2e: no spec changes needed — none use mouse.wheel/scrollTo, and Playwright scrolls click targets into view within any scroll container. All 15 specs compile unchanged.
+
 ## v0.9.2 — 2026-09-29 08:00
 - WORLD MAP (#19): the bottom JUMP ROUTES button list is gone — jumps now happen by clicking galactic chart fields. Systems adjacent to the current one (the same set as before, undiscovered included) are clickable nodes with a pointer cursor and a `// JUMP` sublabel; the current system stays bright green with CURRENT, unreachable systems are dimmed (OFFLINE) and not clickable.
 - NodeGraph (`components/ui/node-graph.tsx`) gained two optional, backward-compatible additions: an `onNodeClick(id)` prop that turns non-disabled nodes into buttons (click + Enter/Space, role=button, aria-label, focusable), and a per-node `disabled` flag — while a jump is in flight every node locks, mirroring the old disabled-button behaviour.
