Detailed Description

Top centre, above everything, and normally invisible. Two labs had one - electronics for a short circuit, street-network for gridlock - and both had independently worked out the same three rules, which is why it is here:

• the fill carries the severity (alarm red versus the gold of a warning) and the ink comes from the fill via inkOn(), never pinned;
• a real fault blink{blinks}, a note does not - a banner that always pulses stops meaning anything;
• the width is capped against the panels beside it and the text elides, because a German banner runs about a quarter longer than the English one and a banner that slides under the palette is worse than no banner.
