iced_aw's DropDown keeps its list on screen by testing it against the
viewport's width and height only, as if the viewport started at the
window corner. Inside a scrollable the viewport is the visible area in
window coordinates, so a field in a dock pallet saw its list overflow
and the list jumped left by its own width (or up over the field); the
Properties Transparency dropdown showed it. Hand the drop-down a
viewport reaching from the corner to the visible area's far edges.

The name field shared the 160 px sidebar row with Save and the close
button, so it was squeezed until no text showed. It now takes the full
width with the buttons below it, and the close button is the SVG icon
instead of a "×" glyph. (#1817)

At this iced revision the layer under an overlay that wants the pointer
gets an unavailable cursor, not a levitating one, so hover_zone still
read a pointer on an open linetype list as leaving the edge. Keep the
last state on an unavailable cursor and exit only on a position outside
the bounds or the pointer leaving the window. A test drives a real open
dropdown through iced's UserInterface for both mouse_area and the zone.

iced gives the layer under an overlay a levitating cursor, so the dock
edge's mouse_area read the pointer on any dropdown or combo list in a
pallet as leaving, and auto-hide collapsed the panel mid-pick. Track
enter/leave with a small hover_zone wrapper that lands the cursor before
its bounds test, on docked edges and floating pallets alike.

Enable the existing palette rows and BPARAMETER choices. Rotation accepts a
center, picked or numeric radius, and picked or numeric default angle.
Alignment places a tangent direction from its base point. Flip places a
reflection line and state label, with native grip and state expressions.
Extend shared graph append/capacity checks for Flip's additional state node
while preserving existing subgraphs. Keep Polar/Rotation angle labels unique
in either placement order. Add editor graphics, extents and definition
reframing through the existing overlay/history/save paths.
This milestone implements native parameter placement and persistence.
Rotate/Flip action association, reference alignment/grip editing, parameter
property editing and parameter sets remain separate work.
Validation covers command and palette placement, cancellation, local/parent
undo, save/discard, native DWG/DXF objects, existing graph preservation and
the 17 research fixtures. Broader block/dock regressions and editor renders
are also checked.
Enable the three existing palette rows and BPARAMETER choices. Pick a base,
endpoint and label location to create the appropriate native parameter, one
end grip and its location expressions in the shared authoring graph.
Render editor dimensions and labels, preserve them when reframing the block,
and include them in editor extents. Reuse local undo/redo, save/discard and
native DWG/DXF persistence. Reject incomplete or invalid placement without
changing document data or history.
This milestone implements parameter placement. Action association/evaluation,
parameter property editing, alternate grip counts and parameter sets remain
separate work.
Validation: focused placement and palette interaction checks; Block Editor and
dock regressions; native append and DWG/DXF round trips in all 17 research
fixtures, preserving existing graph data and source files; app-view renders.
Enable Point in Authoring Palettes and BPARAMETER. Pick parameter and label
positions, then create the native Point, XY grip and position expressions in
one undo transaction. Draw editor-only markers and clear placement previews.
Share graph append construction with Visibility so both types coexist in
either order. Allocate node, expression and edge IDs independently; preserve
existing objects, nodes and relationships and reject malformed/opaque graphs.
Reframe parameter, label and grip with the edited definition. Include authoring
positions in editor framing while keeping reference geometry extents unchanged.
Retain save/discard and parent saved-edit undo. Action association/evaluation
and parameter property editing remain separate milestones.
Validation: 10 targeted, 286 block and 60 dock checks passed (overlapping
filters). Appending a Point to an existing native graph passed DWG/DXF
roundtrips in all 17 local fixtures; old objects and original checksums stayed
unchanged. Real-view palette interaction and rendered marker/label verified.
Add the current-state selector, Visibility States dialog and mode/show/hide
controls to the contextual ribbon, using shared icons, tooltips, modal UI
and adaptive flyouts. Disable the controls until a Visibility parameter exists.
Stage state creation, rename, deletion, current-state changes and reordering
until OK. Support copied, show-all and hide-all new states in one undo step,
preserve native graph metadata, and restore current-state identity on undo/redo.
Implement nonsaved BVMODE and display-only reveal during BVSHOW selection.
Cancelling selection leaves saved visibility flags and history unchanged.
Keep the existing command-line state workflows available.
Validation: 6 targeted tests; 277 block, 31 app dock, 35 ribbon and 12 history
checks passed (overlapping filters). All 17 local DWG fixtures passed in-memory
DWG/DXF preservation checks with unchanged original checksums.
Milestone 1: enable Parameters > Visibility and add interactive
BPARAMETER VISIBILITY placement using the existing native visibility
parameter, grip and state engine. Bare BPARAMETER currently offers only
Visibility; other parameter, action and set entries remain unavailable.
Show the placed parameter in the editor and support cancel, local undo/
redo, save/discard and saved-edit undo. Bind placement to its document
and definition, reject duplicates and invalid points, and protect existing
authoring graphs from replacement.
Keep visibility parameters and their grips aligned with geometry when a
BEDIT UCS change reframes the definition, including parameter-only blocks.
Validation: 9 targeted tests, 272 block checks and 58 dock checks passed
(overlapping groups). All 17 local DWG fixtures passed in-memory DWG/DXF
placement roundtrips and graph-preservation checks; originals unchanged.
Adds PDFSHXTEXT with the PDF Text Recognition Settings dialog, its
command-line form, the PDFSHXLAYER / PDFSHXBESTFONT / PDFSHXTEXTSETTINGS
variables and the profile settings they are kept in.

The viewport hides the system cursor for its crosshair, and the progress
card's backdrop claimed no cursor of its own, so while a drawing opened
the pointer vanished over the viewport and Cancel could not be aimed at.
The backdrop now shows the arrow. (#1727)

The DGN V7/V8 readers expose each element (level, symbology, geometry,
complex chains, text nodes, shared cells). DGNIMPORT / -DGNIMPORT convert a
model with the Standard mapping into a new drawing; IMPORT opens the
Import File window and routes PDF and DGN files to their importers.

TEXT and MTEXT objects are merged into one MTEXT (top-down or in
selection order, word-wrapped or one paragraph per object, with the
original pitch kept as line spacing) or each TEXT and MTEXT line becomes
an MTEXT of its own. The SEttings option opens the Combine Text settings
dialog; the settings persist as profile values and are exposed as the
TXT2MTXT* variables and the txt2mtxt_settings automation action.

- Block Attribute Manager: the error band's dismiss button is the close
icon, not a "×" glyph the web build may not have.
- Two signatures wrapped to the 100-column limit.
- MCP tool schema digest updated for the new `block_def_dialog` and
`attman_dialog` actions.

Add a dockable Block Editor palette with selectable Parameters, Actions,
Parameter Sets and Constraints pages, reusing shared dock controls, icons
and ribbon-style hover bubbles.
Parameters, Actions, Parameter Sets and Block Properties Table are UI
catalogs only. Their entries remain disabled; this commit does not add
parameter placement, dynamic action behavior, parameter-set authoring or
block properties table functionality.
The Constraints page connects its geometric and dimensional entries to
existing ribbon commands. It reuses their implementations and adds no new
constraint behavior.
Keep the palette specific to BEDIT and retain its placement and selected
page across closing/reopening and Test Block. Opening, closing, switching
pages and clicking disabled entries preserve the document, undo history
and any running command.
Validation: 7 palette tests, 57 dock checks and 46 ribbon checks passed
(overlapping groups); rendered pages inspected and native debug build passed.
Add the no-selection Block section with annotation, orientation, scaling, exploding, units, description and hyperlink controls. Integrate definition edits with editor history, save checkpoints and discard, and keep staged text tied to its definition.
Persist annotation and hyperlink metadata on the block record, migrate legacy marker values on edit, and honor orientation and hyperlink descriptions during block creation. Cover native DWG/DXF roundtrips and replacement after reopening.
Options → User Preferences → Navigation style picks which mouse
gestures pan and orbit the model view (#1480):
- CAD (default): middle button pans, Shift + middle button orbits.
- Blender: middle button orbits, Shift + middle button pans.
- CATIA: middle button pans; pressing the left button during it orbits,
so 3D navigation needs only the mouse.
An armed orbit tool always orbits. The choice is saved with the user
settings.

Live changes are taken back quietly before Apply, OK or Sync write the
list again, so each leaves exactly one undo step even when something
closed the open live step in between; Cancel takes them back without a
command-line notice. References keep their values through renames made
live.

BATTMAN and ATTMAN open a manager for the attribute definitions of one
attributed block: block chips with reference counts and a pick button,
a table whose columns are chosen with chips, move up/down, remove, and
an edit card (Attribute / Text / Properties) for the selected row. Apply,
OK and Sync write the list back to the block definition and, when asked,
rebuild the existing references keeping values through tag renames;
each is one undo step. Live changes are taken back on Cancel. Automation
gains attman_dialog.

The name card draws the selected objects, or the existing definition the
name picks. OK with no objects shows an in-window band offering to select
objects or to define an empty block. A switch opens the new block in the
block editor once it is defined; it is remembered with the other dialog
choices. Automation gains block_def_dialog.

The Block Definition panel's Create Block is a split button listing
Create Block and Write Block; its face runs the last one chosen. The
slide-out lists Set Base Point and Synchronize with their labels, and
the large buttons read Manage Attributes and Block Editor.

Options > Files lets the fonts and plot style folders move elsewhere,
such as a share a whole team uses (Change... / Default). Fonts are then
looked up and downloaded there, and plot style tables listed and saved
there; the choice is kept in the profile.

The color_book_dirs setting is gone. Colour books live in color_books in
the config folder (book::folder()), like the other fixed locations;
Options > Files shows it through Folders::color_books. read_all() and
load_from_dialog() use that folder directly.

book::load_from_dialog (pick, read, copy into the first folder) and
book::read_all (built-in book plus every .acb in the folders) move out of
update/mod.rs, which now just calls them. Same behaviour.

- book::add_or_replace adds a colour book or replaces one of the same
name, for both reading the folders and loading a file.
- style.rs: the Plot Style and View Background colour targets use
math::color_rgb (and hex_string) instead of their own conversions.
- Ribbon: one layer_color lookup for Ribbon::active_layer_color and the
ribbon's ByLayer swatch.
- Picker: one swatch() for the Index and Document swatches, fill_of() for
"colour or gray" and divider() for the 1 px separators.

- Arrow keys only walk the colours on screen: the Document tab's search
results, and the Color books matches while searching (the whole book,
page after page, otherwise). One helper per tab now gives the visible
colours to both the view and the arrow keys.
- show_identity no longer returns an unused bool; ink() absorbs its
one-use ink_is_dark helper.
- document::layer_identity joins a layer's book and colour name, used by
the Document scan and the panel's current colour instead of two copies.
- Recently-used sorting looks a colour's rank up once (sort_by_cached_key)
instead of on every comparison.
- Searching compares case-insensitively without allocating a lower-case
copy of every name on each redraw (ASCII queries).

- The pipette is Phosphor Icons' "eyedropper" (regular, MIT); its
licence is in assets/icons/ui/LICENSE-phosphor.txt and the SVG header.
- The load-book button and the page strip's up/down arrows use the active
tab's colours (background.strong and its text colour), slightly darker
on hover.

- Colour books now come from folders, like AutoCAD's Color Book
Locations: Options > Files lists them (add, open, remove); by default
one color_books folder in the config directory. The Color Books tab
shows the built-in books plus every .acb in those folders; Load copies
the chosen file into the first folder. Web: session only, as before.
- Grid/list buttons use the app's toggle style (light accent, its text
colour for the icon, same corners as inactive).
- Color Books: the load button sits right of the book list; the search
box keeps its start over the page strip and runs to the end.
- Translations for the two new Options strings in all 22 locales.
