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.

The paste adds entities to the document directly, so the fill and raster
models `add_entity` seeds were never built. An associative hatch got its
model back when its pasted boundary rebuilt it; a non-associative one
stayed in the drawing but was never drawn. Seed the fill, image and
underlay models of the pasted entities. (#1807)

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.

With dynamic UCS on (UCSDETECT 1, toggled with F6), a command's first
point picked on a planar face of a solid sets the UCS to that face for
the rest of the command, so 2D commands draw on the face (#1711). An
unsnapped first point lands on the face itself; a snapped point off the
face's plane belongs to other geometry and leaves the UCS alone. The
previous UCS comes back when the command ends. UCS commands themselves
are left out.

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.

- block-def strings in every locale (English until translated); the
catalog test requires each locale to carry them.
- A new block's base point starts at 0, and ATTMAN / BATTMAN report a
drawing without attributed blocks; the tests expect that now.
- Lines over 100 columns wrapped.

The count was keyed on the gathering command's address, so a command
boxed where the previous one was (MOVE right after MOVE) inherited its
selection and reported its first pick as a duplicate. Drop the report
whenever no command is running.

-BLOCK, -WBLOCK, -BEDIT, ATTSYNC, BASE and INSBASE follow the reference
prompts and messages; empty blocks; WBLOCK keeps object coordinates and
stores INSBASE; annotative and hyperlink data on the block record; block
preview images; remembered dialog choices; block aliases.

- True Color opens in RGB; the gradient field, hex and nearest index sit
at the bottom so CMYK's fourth slider doesn't move them; slider rows
closer together.
- Document tab: grid or list view (list drawn like the colour-book bars),
and Name A–Z / Z–A sorting (translated in all locales). Swatches of
colour-book colours show the colour's name.
- A colour-book colour picked as the current colour (nothing selected)
keeps its BOOK$NAME on the objects drawn with it.

The count line now uses the objects the selection step itself picked
(a click, a window or crossing, a lasso, a fence, Last / Previous /
All): "N found (D duplicate), M total" when some were chosen already,
"N found, R removed, M total" in remove mode, "N found, M total" when a
removal picks objects that were not chosen.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <[email protected]>
Every pick during object selection prints the reference's count line:
"N found" for the first pick or a pick that adds nothing, "N found,
M total" after it, "N found, N removed, M total" when objects leave the
set. It is printed before a command's own filtering, so "N were filtered
out" follows it. COUNT reports through it and the ad hoc
"object(s) found." / "object(s) added to selection." lines are gone.

Create a new named definition from current session edits, restore the source checkpoint, and continue editing the copy with fresh local history. Add the name dialog and Save dropdown, clone supported owned metadata onto independent handles, and refuse unsupported relationships atomically.
Ctrl+click on a polyline selects the segment under the cursor (again to
drop it); several segments can be picked. Only the picked segments are
highlighted, and MOVE, ROTATE, SCALE and MIRROR then change just their
vertices, so the neighbouring segments stretch to follow. Any other
selected objects are transformed whole as before.

COMPARE picks a drawing (or takes its path) and matches its objects with
this drawing's by what they draw: type, layer and tessellated geometry,
so an unchanged copy matches whatever its handle. Objects only here are
outlined in green, objects only in the other drawing in red, over the
current drawing, and Next / Previous zoom from one difference to the
next with a count in the prompt. A moved or edited object shows as one
of each. eXit (or Esc) clears the overlay.

With the new Associative option on (the default), ARRAYRECT and
ARRAYPOLAR build the array the way the drawing format stores one: the
selected objects move into an anonymous source block, an anonymous
array block holds one ByBlock reference to it per item, an INSERT of
the array block takes their place, and an AcDbAssocAction with an
AcDbAssocArrayActionBody, its three dependencies, the BaseNormal /
Origin / basePoint parameters and the value parameters tie them
together in the model-space network. The array is then edited from
Properties like an array read from a file.
The option flips with AS and is remembered for the session; on a
rotated working plane the commands keep making plain copies. Saving
drops the action of an array whose reference was erased or exploded.
Checked: created arrays reopen as associative with their parameters
and items, and the ODA converter reads the saved DWG without errors.

ADJUST gathers raster images or PDF/DWF/DGN underlays (other objects are
dropped silently, pickfirst is used, a mixed set is refused), then asks the
image option (Brightness default) or the underlay option (last used), with
value prompts that offer the image's own value or the session's last
underlay fade/contrast, and Monochrome Yes/No. Invalid values re-prompt.
One undo step. -IMAGEADJUST, PDFADJUST, DWFADJUST and DGNADJUST take one
kind each. Raster image Brightness/Contrast/Fade move to an Image Adjust
section as whole numbers with 0-100 validation.

In model space MVSETUP draws the sheet border at the drawing scale
(scale factor, paper width and height) and zooms to it, or switches to
a layout. On a layout it creates viewports in a bounding area (a single
one, a 2x2 engineering set of top/front/right/isometric views, or an
array with spacing), deletes picked objects, and scales picked
viewports to a paper/model unit ratio.
A viewport's fit to the model now measures the model along the
viewport's own view direction, so side and isometric views frame it
too.

DVIEW (alias DV) offers TWist and Undo. TWist rolls the active view
or viewport camera to the typed angle; Undo steps back through the
twists made in the session. The new alias reaches existing profiles
through the alias migration table.

Typing <angle at a point prompt (e.g. <30) now fixes the direction of
the next point from the last one until a point is placed: the cursor
moves along that direction, and a bare number entered next is the
distance along it. The angle is read in the drawing's angle base and
direction and turned into the current UCS. Works from the command line
and from scripts or the automation token input alike.

Introduce would_create_cycle in block_service to prevent recursive block definitions with case-insensitive matching across block records. Enforce cycle refusal at INSERT commit in BEDIT and during block redefinition (redefine_block_raw) with a shared error message. Ensure render-time recursion truncates safely with a one-time session warning on cyclic documents.
world = insert_point + Rot * Scale * (P - base_point). Attribute placement, EXPLODE, XCLIP storage, REFEDIT's working copy, the UCS reframe of attributes and the dynamic-block visibility grip ignored the base point and were offset by Rot*Scale*base. They now share insert_transform_with_base. Creation stores a ZERO base and redefine resets it; a no-op redefine moves nothing; the Block Definition dialog prefills the base from the definition. XCLIP filters stored by older builds keep their old displacement.
bake_dimension_blocks copied the dimension's whole EntityCommon, including its extension dictionary handle, into every baked child, so many entities claimed one dictionary and file validation reported an error per entity. Baked children now get no extension dictionary. The same defect is fixed in define_transformed_block and the cross-document paste clone. Each has a test.
#1707 took any snap name typed at a point prompt as an override, so a
prompt offering Center, Tangent, Parallel or None (ARC, ELLIPSE, CIRCLE
TTR, ...) could no longer be answered with that option's name. An option
the prompt offers now wins. The point-step test it copied from MTP is one
helper shared by MTP and the override on both input paths.

#1681 places a dimension's picture block by its insertion point, rotation
and scale. Edits (move/rotate/scale/mirror, copy, paste) transform the
picture's sub-entities in world space, and the codec's dimension transform
moves the insertion point too, so a rotated or copied dimension would get
the placement applied twice. Fold the placement into the subs before the
edit and leave the dimension at the identity placement afterwards.
The picture insert no longer takes the dimension's extrusion: OCS bakes
picture sub-entities in world coordinates, so only the stored insertion
point goes through the OCS. A zero insertion-scale component counts as 1.

Tests previously ran on Ubuntu only, so Windows- and macOS-specific breakage went unseen. Add a 3-OS test matrix and a separate lint job for rustfmt and clippy. Lint is continue-on-error because the tree is not yet fmt-clean or clippy-clean.
Also add BEDIT characterization tests that pin current session, undo and refusal behavior ahead of the editor refactor. Locked tests guard behavior that must survive; documenting tests record questionable behavior expected to change.
Allow users to temporarily override object snaps during active point prompts by typing at least the first 3 letters of any snap mode (e.g. MID, END, CEN, PER, NON). The override activates for the next point pick only and automatically restores running snaps once consumed or cancelled.
SURFACEASSOCIATIVITY now keeps EXTRUDE, REVOLVE and LOFT surfaces linked to
their sources: the profile (and axis object) or cross sections are kept, the
surface is made again when they change, and the drawing's associative
network carries an action with the extruded, revolved or lofted surface
action body, its path parameters and value parameters as the reference
writes them. Swept, extruded, revolved and lofted surfaces can read
splines (NURBS edge curve, fit-point splines through their fit points)
and ellipses (elliptical edge curve). Associative surfaces of a file
opened here follow their sources too.

- refresh_associative_sweeps runs on every edit and scanned the xdata of
every entity; it now returns at once when no associative swept surface
exists (its application is not registered) and looks at surfaces only.
- An arc's end angle was raised by TAU in a loop, which never ends on a
huge angle from a damaged file; the sweep is taken with rem_euclid.
- The sweep DELOBJ test expected surface sweeps to delete their sources,
which #1663 changed on purpose: an associative surface keeps them.
- codec c9ffcac (opencadcodec #103) adds an explicit viewport-off bit: the
viewport on state is read with is_on() and set with turn_on()/turn_off()
everywhere, so a viewport the file marks off shows off and can be turned
back on from Properties.

Swept surfaces made with SURFACEASSOCIATIVITY on keep their profile and
path and are written as a swept-surface action of the drawing's
associative network, reading the profile and path and their scale and
twist expressions. They follow edits of their sources.

COPY and PASTE kept the source's reactors on each copy, so a copied
dimension still pointed at the source's dimension association (and
boundary or group members at the source hatch or group). Another
application reports such a drawing as damaged and, after recovery,
moves the dimensions. A copy's reactors now follow only targets copied
with it; group copies give their members the new group's reactor; and a
drawing opened with such stray dimension reactors has them dropped.

The paste kernel added every entity to model space. It now takes the
space a new entity goes to: the block being edited, a layout's paper
space when no viewport is active, or model space.
