- Implement `TABLEDIT` command supporting viewport point-picking on cell interiors
- Support overlapping table hit testing with selection cycling and top-table resolution
- Support `/n` and `\n` multiline paragraph breaks (`\P`) in table cell text editing
- Unify text input modes via `InputKind` (`Point`, `SingleToken`, `FreeText`) on `CadCommand`
- Migrate 15+ commands across annotate, draw, insert, layout, and view modules
- Preserve text casing, literal spaces, and bypass arithmetic eval during FreeText input
- Add dedicated `tabledit_tests` and `free_text_entry_tests` test suites
INSERT enumerated all block names in a single prompt string, causing unbounded overlay growth and full-screen occlusion in drawings with many blocks. Replace prompt enumeration with a ranked, incrementally filtered suggestion model: BlockPicker maintains precomputed lower/upper caches and usage ranks (MRU/frequency), filters via O(n) substring scan and partial sorting (select_nth_unstable) to O(k), bounded to CLIPROMPTLINES.
Introduce CLIPROMPTLINES (Integer 0-50, Registry, default 3) for the number of temporary prompt lines above the command window; persist in UserSettings, expose via SETVAR and direct entry, enforce in CommandLine::view. Suggestion count is in direct relation to CLIPROMPTLINES (limit = clip, capped to 50).
Make search live without requiring Enter: add CadCommand::on_live_input, implement for INSERT/MINSERT via picker.set_needle, and wire to command-line input paths (Message::CommandInput, on_command_append_char, on_command_backspace). Updates use upper/lower caches and partial sort for <0.2ms per keystroke on 10k blocks, with debounced block-usage persistence (MRU cap 20, freq cap 200) to avoid I/O thrash. Correct tri_count test helper to use display_from_solid.
The readout learned to write lengths as 5'-6 1/2" and angles as
N 45d0'0" E, but typed input was still a bare parse::<f64>() — a
coordinate could be displayed and not entered. Give the formatters
their inverses.
parse_length takes feet and inches separated by a dash, a space, or
nothing, with the closing quote optional, and whole-plus-fraction in
any of those forms: 5', 60", 5'-9", 5'9-1/2, 9-1/2, 1/2. A leading
minus is a sign; the one inside 5'-9" is a separator, since after feet
there is nothing left to subtract from.
parse_angle reads the mark that says which convention an angle is in —
g for grads, r for radians, d/'/" for degrees-minutes-seconds, compass
letters for a surveyor's bearing — and reads a bare number in whichever
convention the drawing is set to.
ANGBASE and ANGDIR now apply, but only where they mean something. Which
way a thing points is measured from the drawing's zero and runs the way
it says; how wide an arc opens is the same number whatever zero is
counted from. format_direction and parse_direction are the pair for
directions, and the polar readout and polar input both go through them,
so the bearing shown is the bearing accepted. format_angle stays for
sizes, where applying a base angle would corrupt the value.
The command prompts follow the same rule, each classified rather than
swept: OFFSET distance, FILLET radius, CHAMFER distances, ARRAY and
MINSERT spacing, TRACE width, HELIX, and EXTRUDE height read lengths;
the four dimension text-rotation prompts, ARRAY's total angle and
INSERT's rotation read angles. MLINE's scale and INSERT's scale factor
are left alone — a multiplier has no unit to be written in. INSERT read
both through one parse; they are now separate.
The typed variants also take a decimal comma, which a single-value
prompt has no other use for. parse_length itself does not: inside a
coordinate the comma separates the axes.

Typed values were quantized to the f32 grid before reaching the
entity (e.g. a length of 2000.8 committed as 2000.8020), worsening
with magnitude. The interaction point layer was all glam::Vec3 (f32).
Two-layer fix:
1. Coordinate backbone -> f64. last_point, last_cursor_world,
dyn_anchor, dyn_ref become DVec3; UcsXform transforms, parse_coord,
the ucs helper fns, dyn_resolve_point, the OTRACK typed-distance
paths, command-line coordinate entry and the coordinate readout all
compute in f64. Screen/GPU/alignment stays f32 (snap engine, render
geometry, projection, UCS-icon/viewcube drawing) with casts only at
those boundaries.
2. Per-command committed storage -> DVec3. on_point already received a
DVec3, but many command impls narrowed it back to f32 (let pt =
pt.as_vec3(); Vec<Vec3> fields) and re-widened at build, quantizing
the committed coordinate. Migrated PLINE, SPLINE, MLINE, LENGTHEN,
INSERT, 3D primitives, every dimension/leader/mleader, ray, revcloud,
wipeout, attdef, table, tolerance, array center, mview, plot_window,
plus the QDIM_PLACE handler and qdim_collect_points. Preview,
hit-test and rubber-band paths keep f32 at the boundary.
Hatch manual boundaries are left for a follow-up: HatchModel.boundary
is structurally Arc<Vec<[f32;2]>> and needs a model-level widen.

Inserting a block piled every attribute at the origin: each AttributeEntity
was built from just tag + value with default geometry. Carry the full
AttributeDefinition through the attreq flow and build attributes with
AttributeEntity::from_definition, then apply the block's insertion transform
so each lands in WCS at its proper position / alignment / rotation.
Attributes are stored in world space, so moving the block must move them
too. The MOVE command already did (acadrust translate_insert); apply_grip
(grip-drag) and the Position X/Y/Z property edit now translate the
attributes by the same world delta so they no longer stay behind.
Rotate/scale/mirror of a block still don't carry the attributes — acadrust's
transform_insert has no attribute pass — tracked separately.

Broad pass over the command set: integrate missing commands, wire
previously-unreachable ribbon/menu buttons, and correct name/behaviour
mismatches. Every UI command token now resolves (real handler where the
infrastructure exists, an honest "not yet implemented" status otherwise).
New commands:
- Draw: 3DPOLY, 2D solid (SO/SOLID2D), HELIX, TRACE, SKETCH, DIMCENTER
(DCE/CENTERMARK)
- Modify/inquiry: REVERSE, MEASUREGEOM (MEA), DBLIST
- Data/manage: BASE, OVERKILL (exact-duplicate removal), AUDIT (read-only
integrity report), SETVAR (system-variable get/set), SCRIPT (.scr runner),
FINDNONPURGEABLE
Behaviour fixes:
- LINE and SPLINE gain Close/Undo; AREA computes area/perimeter in f64
(correct at large coordinates)
- ATTEDIT/ATE unified so the alias and the ribbon button open the
interactive editor; -ATTEDIT is the command-line form
- Linear/aligned/radius/diameter dimensions gain a text override (Text) and
text angle (Angle) option
- INSERT gains Scale/Rotate options; COPY gains an Array option
- LINETYPE SET sets the current entity linetype; SETBYLAYER resets overrides
- UNDO accepts a step count
Integrations: standard dimension/block aliases (DLI/DRA/DAN, BMAKE,
EXPORTPDF, DDIM), drafting-aid and screen toggles (GRID/SNAP/POLAR/OSNAP/
DSETTINGS/CLEANSCREEN/QUICKPROPERTIES), viewport tiling
(CASCADE/HORIZONTAL/VERTICAL/VPJOIN), and customization entry points
(CUI/ALIASEDIT).

Whole command/snap/grip/cursor chain now builds on f64 DVec3 end to end,
so picked points, snaps and grip drags stay precise at UTM-scale
coordinates instead of quantizing to ~0.5 m through f32.
- All ~80 command files migrated: draw (line/circle/arc/ellipse/shapes
in full f64; others via point methods), modify, annotate, insert, view,
inquiry, layers, groups, clipboard, layout.
- Entity apply_grip impls updated for GripApply::{Absolute,Translate}(DVec3).
- Construction sites (EntityTransform/CmdResult/DynAnchor) emit DVec3;
wire-preview boundaries cast to f32 only at the GPU edge.
- Modify/annotate commands keep internal Vec3 geometry where precision is
non-critical, casting at the DVec3 boundary; key draw commands store f64.
Builds clean (no warnings). Visual verification of crosshair/snap/grip at
extreme UTM zoom pending.

Turn the ribbon Clipboard "Paste" button into a dropdown:
- Paste — existing pick-a-point paste.
- Paste to Original Coordinates — drops the clipboard at its source
coordinates with no prompt.
- Paste as Block — wraps the clipboard contents in a new block definition
and starts an interactive insert (prompts for the drop point, with the
geometry rubber-banding under the cursor).
Also fixes two bugs the new commands exposed:
- entities_centroid summed the NaN separator points wire models carry,
so the paste base point came out NaN; non-finite points are now
skipped. A NaN base previously froze block tessellation outright.
- PASTEORIG added clipboard entities with their original handles
(duplicates on same-document paste); it now goes through
add_entity_clone and merges referenced records like the other pastes.

Move the 30 flat modules under src/scene/ into six folders by role:
convert (entity→geometry), text (fonts/shaping), model (render models),
pick (hit-test/selection/grips/xclip), view (camera/transform/render),
cache (block + property caches). pipeline/ is unchanged.
Full path migration — all `scene::X` references become
`scene::<group>::X`, no compatibility re-exports. render.rs items that
were `pub(super)` (parent was scene) become `pub(in crate::scene)` to
keep their original scene-wide visibility.
No behavior change; build and tests are green.

Type-as-you-go suggestion popup above the input that filters known
command names by substring (so `LEADER` surfaces both LEADER and
MLEADER). Up / Down navigates the list, Enter dispatches the
highlighted entry, clicking a row dispatches directly. Esc on a
non-empty input clears the buffer instead of escalating to
command-cancel.
The name corpus comes from `inventory::submit!` blocks placed next
to each `CadCommand` impl rather than a hand-maintained static list.
Adding a new interactive command means dropping one `inventory::submit!`
line in its own module file — the autocomplete picks it up at the
next compile. 98 submissions seeded across 60 module files;
`command::all_registered_command_names()` flattens them at runtime.
One-shot dispatch arms in `app/commands.rs` (NEW, OPEN, SAVE, UNDO,
…) don't have a `CadCommand` impl and are therefore absent from
autocomplete by design.

Two behaviour changes that bring the command line in line with
established CAD workflow:
1. **Always-on keyboard capture.** The input was blurred whenever no
command was running, so typed letters went nowhere until the user
clicked into the field. Replace the blur with a re-focus on every
command lifecycle transition (cmd_result.rs) and on viewport / tab
/ ribbon clicks (update.rs), focus the input at startup, and add
a global key subscription that catches any unhandled character key
or backspace and routes it into the buffer via two new messages
(CommandAppendChar / CommandBackspace) — so the command line keeps
accumulating keystrokes even if focus parks somewhere not
focusable. Removes the unused blur_cmd_input helper.
2. **Space submits.** Typing a space at the end of the input now
submits the buffer the same way Enter does. Only exception: an
active command that's currently collecting free-form prose
(TEXT / MTEXT / DDEDIT body, ATTDEF prompt / default value,
INSERT attribute value, ATTEDIT cell). Those advertise the new
`CadCommand::wants_text_with_spaces()` flag so the Space character
reaches the buffer as a literal.

When inserting a block that contains AttributeDefinition entities,
the INSERT command now enters an attribute-filling phase: each attdef
is prompted tag-by-tag (showing its prompt text and default value).
Pressing Enter accepts the default. The completed AttributeEntity list
is embedded in the Insert before committing.
Blocks without attdefs continue to insert immediately as before.
