Implement the complete Block Definition dialog window launched via BLOCK
and BMAKE commands, featuring standard CAD layout, workflows, and entity
creation pipelines.
- Dialog UI & Layout:
- 2-column compact CAD grid with synchronized vertical heights (580 × 390px).
- Editable combobox with existing block names, invalid character validation,
and inline redefinition badge.
- Multi-line text editor widget for block descriptions (replacing single-line input).
- Quick Select (QSELECT) button integration restoring dialog state upon completion.
- Confirmation guard when attempting to redefine an existing block definition.
- Centered radio buttons, clean coordinate inputs, and accessible keyboard shortcuts.
- Base Point & On-Screen Workflow:
- BlockOnScreenCommand strictly enforces prompt sequencing: Base point is
prompted before object selection.
- Dynamically recalculates world_to_block and block_to_world affine transforms
when base point is specified on-screen, preventing stale (0,0,0) normalization.
- Supports Retain, Convert to block (INSERT placement), and Delete modes.
- Explode Enforcement:
- Guarded EXPLODE command to prevent decomposing blocks flagged as non-explodable.
- Dynamic Themed Icons:
- Added pick_point.svg, select_objects.svg, quick_select.svg, and warning_triangle.svg.
- Routed all icons through the semantic theming engine so line work (#B4B6B9)
and accents (#6DB7ED) adapt automatically to the active theme.
- Tests:
- Added unit tests for retain/convert/delete modes, redefinition, explodable flag,
on-screen base point transform recalculation, and command sequencing.
acadrust follows hakanaktt/acadrust main through #107, entity-record
passthrough included; cadkernel pins the same codec rev so one acadrust
stays in the graph. Upstream added BlockFlags::is_xref_unloaded, which
XATTACH now sets to false for a freshly attached reference.

ExtrudeCommand never opted into dyn_commit_as_text(), so a typed
Enter fell through to generic point-resolution instead of
on_text_input, producing a near-zero height that silently failed
to commit. Mirror PresspullCommand's pattern, gated to the Height
step.

XREF command with status, reload, unload, detach, path, pathtype, bind, overlay, and attach options, plus guided XATTACH with unique naming and placement prompts.
Use the maintained cadkernel main revision and retain source surfaces. Verify signed and two-point input, partial failure, DWG round-trips and one-step undo/redo of solids and history objects.
Reuse the application library from the binary entry point instead of compiling the module tree twice. Keep desktop-only transports and caches out of web builds, remove unused test code, and check executable targets in CI.
- 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 last four truck crates are gone from the manifest. What they were doing
falls into three parts, and each now has one answer instead of two.
NURBS evaluation. truck was carrying B-spline curves and surfaces for the
SPLINE entity, hatch boundaries, BLEND's endpoint frames, the spline preview
and ACIS spline-surface faces. The kernel now has both, over one de Boor
written across however many coordinates a control point holds — so a plane
curve and a space curve cannot drift apart, and a surface is the same
algorithm applied twice. The rational and the polynomial cases stop being
separate types: weights absent means polynomial.
The entity conversion. Every LINE, ARC, ELLIPSE, SPLINE and polyline was
built into truck topology purely so it could be sampled back into points.
They are sampled through `entities::curve` now, which is where each one's
geometry is already defined once and what EXTRUDE and REVOLVE read — so a
circle drawn on screen and a circle handed to the Model tab come from the
same definition. That retires four of TruckObject's variants and the module
is renamed for what it does.
SWEEP and LOFT. Both only ever produced a mesh, so both are built from point
lists: a band of quads per span, and a lid where a profile closes. Lofting
profiles of different densities resamples them by distance rather than by
index, so a circle lofted to a square no longer twists.
Two things worth noting for anyone reading the old comments. The tolerance
globals that lived in the tessellation module were never about truck at all —
they are the per-frame chord height, and they move to `curve_tol`. And the
rule that a profile handed over as `Lines` silently broke EXTRUDE and REVOLVE
no longer holds: those read the curve directly and never look at this channel.
The two `automation` test failures are unchanged from before this and are not
caused by it.

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.

Add a searchable block palette with previews, file import, collision-safe nested definitions, and dependency/table-record import. Keep palette thumbnails current across drawing switches and block-definition edits.
Completes the f64 migration on the CPU data path: the only f32 left now
is the GPU/render/screen layer, which is architecturally required (wgpu
vertex buffers and iced are f32; f64 vertices would double memory).
- EntityTransform::Rotate.angle_rad and Scale.factor are now f64 (the
transform was already applied in f64 around the DVec3 center, so this
only preserves the typed angle/factor). apply_standard_transform and
apply_standard_scale take f64.
- CmdResult::ExtrudeEntity.height and AlignSelected.{angle_rad,scale}
are f64; the EXTRUDE height parses as f64.
- defaults.rs (last-used construction values: circle radius/diameter,
rotate angle, scale factor, offset/fillet/chamfer distance, array
spacing/counts/angle) moved from Cell<f32> to Cell<f64>. Array counts
round-trip through u32 (exact below 2^53).
- Consumers in circle/array/fillet/offset/rotate/scale/align/solid3d and
dimension.rs rotate_point/scale_point follow. `as f32` is kept only
where a value feeds a WireModel rubber-band/ghost (the preview path is
screen-space f32).

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.

Command aliases (L→LINE, CC→COPYCLIP) were scattered across dispatch match
arms and CommandRegistration name arrays. Move them all into a single
user-editable file:
- assets/ocad.pgp: shipped default alias table (ALIAS,*COMMAND format),
embedded and copied to config/ocad.pgp on first launch; only that user
copy is read after. AA→AREA default closes#286.
- resolve_alias() rewrites the leading command token at the top of
dispatch_command_inner, so aliases resolve for every path (families,
plugins, Repeat menu). Args after the first space are untouched.
- Autocomplete hides alias keys and, when the whole input is an alias,
surfaces its target command as the top (highlighted) suggestion so the
highlight matches what Enter runs (AA→AREA, L→LINE).
- ALIASEDIT opens a new editor modal (add/edit/delete rows) with an Apply
button; Apply persists to ocad.pgp, closing discards unapplied edits.
- Strip alias tokens from all 8 dispatch match-arm files and 71 module
CommandRegistration arrays, keeping canonical/synonym/distinct-command
names. ocad.pgp is now the sole source: deleting or remapping an alias
there takes effect. CUI stays on the keyboard-shortcut panel.

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.

Change CadModule::ribbon_groups() from -> Vec<RibbonGroup> to -> &[RibbonGroup],
backed by a per-module OnceLock cache. The ribbon group tree is static data
(&'static str, Copy enums) that was being fully reconstructed — Vecs, String
clones, enum discriminants — on every call, including all three per-frame
call sites (view(), dropdown_overlay(), style_combo_overlay()).
- 7 built-in modules + 2 plugin templates cache via function-local OnceLock.
Safe because each is a unit struct with exactly one instance per process
(plugins run in isolated child processes; see PluginProcess::spawn()).
- SharedCadModule avoids the static pattern entirely, storing groups in an
instance field (owned.rs).
- IPC runner converts &RibbonGroup -> OwnedRibbonGroup directly via new
From<&T> impls, avoiding an intermediate clone.
- render_small/render_large and the two make_tool_row closures now borrow
(&RibbonItem, &[ToolDef]) instead of taking ownership, so the view loop
doesn't need to clone items to satisfy the old by-value signatures.
- Various match-ergonomics deref fixes (*id, *default, *icon, etc.) from
the &RibbonItem pattern change.
Integrate a large batch of standard CAD commands and fix several
name/behaviour mismatches, with no product references in code.
3D solids (reusing the truck B-rep pipeline):
- SLICE, INTERFERE, PRESSPULL, POLYSOLID, PYRAMID, SECTION
- 3DROTATE, 3DMIRROR, 3DALIGN (cached-solid transforms)
Annotation / text:
- ARCTEXT, SPLINEFIT (Catmull-Rom to Bezier), DIMJOGGED, OBJECTSCALE
(XData markers honoured by the existing geometry-gen / tessellator)
Blocks / misc:
- NCOPY (block-content extraction via explode_entity)
- OPTIONS, SYNCPVIEWPORTS, THICKEN, plus earlier toggles, aliases,
system variables, and layer/style/view commands
POINTCLOUD/RECAP and UNDERLAYLAYERS/UOSNAP are intentionally left out:
they require a proprietary binary / PDF-layer parser, a GPU point
renderer, and real test files.

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.

UI chrome (dropdown carets, undo/redo, checkmarks, close/menu/osnap,
layer/file-menu icons) and ribbon tool icons were drawn as Unicode
glyphs. Desktop fills missing glyphs via system-font fallback, but the
web build bundles only Fira Sans with no fallback, so they rendered as
empty tofu boxes (issue #116).
Add a shared src/ui/icons.rs (SVG-backed, tintable) plus bundled assets,
and switch every glyph site and IconKind::Glyph tool def to SVG.

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.
