Subject: [PATCH 1/3] fix: make Show Simulation Box checkbox toggleable (fixes
 #308)

The useEffect in View.tsx that synced renderSettings.showSimulationBox
with embedConfig.showSimulationBox lacked an isEmbeddedMode guard.
Since embedConfig.showSimulationBox defaults to true, any user change
to the checkbox was immediately overwritten back to true on every render
cycle, making the checkbox appear permanently enabled and unresponsive.

Fix: wrap the sync logic in an isEmbeddedMode check so it only runs
when the app is actually embedded via URL config. Non-embedded mode now
allows free toggling; embedded mode continues to have embedConfig take
precedence as before.

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] refactor: tighten useEffect dependency array for
 showSimulationBox sync

Use the functional update form of setRenderSettings so the effect only
needs renderSettings.showSimulationBox (not the full renderSettings
object) in its dependency array. This avoids re-running the effect on
unrelated renderSettings changes and eliminates the stale-closure risk
of spreading a captured renderSettings snapshot.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] fix: use direct value for setRenderSettings (fixes
 typecheck)
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

setRenderSettings is an easy-peasy action, not a React useState setter,
so it only accepts a RenderSettings value directly — not a functional
update callback. Revert to spreading renderSettings directly while
keeping the isEmbeddedMode guard and tighter dependency array from the
previous two commits.
