Any Err from layer.symbology sets the pending picker, not just the "no field" failure. Other errors, such as an empty layer or a failed class computation, will show a field picker that can't help. When the user picks a field and app.run fails again, the error is dropped and the picker stays with no feedback.
The pending state is also temp data keyed by Id::new("symbology_pending_field"). It is never cleared when the user switches the active layer and comes back, or after edits elsewhere. Consider showing the error text next to the picker, and only entering the pending state when the error is the missing-field one.
The new strings are wrapped in tl!, which fits AGENTS.md. The pane-level behaviour has no test, and the screenshot flow could cover it.

Reopening this after comparing #738 with the full scope of #768. #738 adds a pre-apply field choice for Unique Values; this PR covers the command-level field defaults and the distinct failed-switch path—keep the current renderer, offer target-compatible fields (including for a failed Graduated Colors switch), and allow retry. It also gives a useful explanation when no numeric field exists. This complements #738 rather than replacing its picker. The branch includes the follow-up cleanup in 0aed56c; cargo xtask ci passes. |

Any error from layer.symbology opens the field picker, not only the "no field available" case. A failure for another reason (for example a bad definition query) would show a misleading "Choose a field" prompt. Consider setting the pending state only for the missing-field errors, or only when fields is non-empty. Also egui::Id::new("symbology_pending_field") is repeated three times; a shared const would be cleaner. Confidence: medium-low.

A failed renderer choice stores
(layer id, kind)in egui temp data. The stored key is only a layer ID, and layer IDs restart in each map. After a map switch, the new map's first layer can take the same ID, so the Symbology pane offers the old choice on that layer. Choosing a field applies the old renderer kind to the new map's active layer.Scope of the fix: the key must identify the map as well as the layer. Alternatively, clear the pending entry in the

When the active layer's definition query excludes every feature,
layer.symbologyreturns "no feature passes the definition query" for the Unique Values, Graduated Colors, and Proportional Symbols types. The pane's error branch treats every failure as a missing field. It stores a pending choice and shows "Choose a field to apply this renderer:". A field chosen from that list callslayer.symbologyagain with the same definition query, and the same error returns. The picker stays open with no message, so the user has no path to recovery in the pane. The user must change the definition query outside this picker.The error text is only written to the log at
crates/ui-egui/src/lib.rs:1433-1435. The pane does not show it beside the picker. Show the picker only for field-related errors, or show the returned error text next to the picker so the user can see why the choice failed.Why a field choice cannot help

2002-2006: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low valueAdd a test for a numeric field with no values before the default-field choice.
The new graduated-default test checks only that the chosen field has a numeric type. It does not check that the field has values. The default choice in
layer.rsdoes not check values either. A future change that picks an unusable first numeric field would still pass this test.For a layer loaded from GeoJSON, a numeric field always has at least one non-null value. An all-null column is typed as
Text. The default choice therefore cannot pick an empty numeric field on load. A field can become empty only through later edits, and this review did not verify which edit paths can do that.Before adding a test, decide the intended behavior. The default should either skip an empty numeric field and use a later one, or fail with a clear error. The test should assert that behavior on a layer whose first numeric field has no values.

The new test at
crates/ui-egui/src/panes.rs:4999-5020only checks cleanup when the active layer changes. It writes the pending state directly withh.ctx.data_mut(...insert_temp(pending_id, ...)). It never callsapp.run("layer.symbology", ...), so it does not exercise a failed switch.No other test covers the UI path. The renderer button at
panes.rs:3357-3363records the pending choice whenapp.runfails. The picker atpanes.rs:3380-3388retries with a chosen field and clears the pending state when the retry succeeds. The only engine test for the failed switch issymbology_chooses_fields_by_renderer_requirementsincrates/engine/src/tests.rs:2009-2037. It checks that the command returns an error, leaves the renderer unchanged, and adds no undo step. It stops before any retry. A regression in the button callback atpanes.rs:3358-3362or the picker callback atpanes.rs:3383-3385would leave the new test green.Add a kittest case that does the following: set up a layer with no numeric field, click the Graduated Colors renderer button, confirm the picker appears, select a field, and confirm the renderer changes to Graduated. This test would detect a broken failure record or a broken retry.

Behaviour change worth a second look (confidence: medium): for Unique Values with no current field, the default is now the first field of any type. Previously a numeric field was preferred. On datasets whose first column is an ID or name, this builds one class per feature (and the unique renderer may hit its class cap or produce an unreadable legend). Consider preferring a low-cardinality/text field, or at least skipping fields where every value is distinct, instead of plain "first field".

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Maintainability (confidence: low-medium): the list of commands that supersede a pending retry is a hand-maintained string allowlist, so any new style command (or a project/layer-edit command not listed, e.g. a field rename or layer.definitionQuery change) silently leaves a stale error and picker on screen. Also, app.run only calls this once frame_ctx is set, so commands run before the first logic() skip it. Consider deriving the set from a layer./style. prefix, or clearing on any successful command that changes the session's undo depth.

Clear pending retries after direct Session style commands.
If the native relay or file bridge successfully changes the pending layer’s style, it runs against Session directly and bypasses this callback. follow_symbology checks layer identity, not style changes. The pane can therefore keep an obsolete error and offer a retry for a switch that the newer edit superseded. Track successful style changes on these direct command paths, or make pending-state cleanup detect the changed renderer.

Related to #738: that PR stages a Unique Values field choice before applying it.

The picker work here is complementary, not a claim that field selection in the Symbology UI is new.
