The reference follows the cursor while its insertion point, scale or
rotation is asked (preview-only PScale/PX/PY/PZ/PRotate included); a
relative path chosen before the drawing had a file becomes relative on the
first save, and relative paths start from "./" at or below the drawing's
folder; -XREF name options report "No matching xref names found.".

On Windows a plot with no printer chosen went to the PDF application's
bare "print" verb — whatever that application considered its default —
and a viewer without a "printto" verb (Edge, store readers) silently
dropped the printer the dialog had chosen. The dialog also never named the
system default, and a failed printer enumeration left only "Default" and
"PDF" with the reason written to a console nobody sees.
- The default printer is looked up by name (GetDefaultPrinterW) both for
the dialog's "System default printer (…)" entry and before every job.
- A pure route decision (plan_print_route) resolves "Default" to that
name and uses the PDF application only when it registered a "printto"
verb for .pdf (AssocQueryStringW); otherwise the job goes straight to
the spooler through the existing GDI path. The report says which:
"Sent to printer: NAME (direct print | via the PDF application)".
- list_printers reports the system's own error; the plot dialog shows it
under the printer row and the command line warns once. A desktop without
CUPS is an empty list, not an error.
- PRINTERS command: default printer, listed printers (or the error) and,
on Windows, the print route — a report to paste into an issue.
- Properties… on the Default entry opens that printer's preferences sheet.
- GDI path: the driver's dmSize is kept (its private data lives behind
it), the print raster is no longer memoised for the session, and a
spooled temporary PDF is removed.
Tests: route planning (named / blank / no default / printto or not), the
PRINTERS command; the two Windows-only GDI tests pass the resolved name.

Grid snap locks to SNAPUNIT instead of magnetizing; snapped 3D points keep elevation instead of flattening to z=0. New SnapTypes Vertex/EdgeMidpoint/FaceCenter/Knot/FacePerpendicular/NearestFace with their own F4 master toggle and mode set, tiers, and markers, fully independent of the 2D master. Solid B-rep corners/edge-midpoints/face-centers from mesh edges and kernel faces, spline knot points, and live perpendicular/nearest-to-face on mesh triangles merged priority-aware in move/click paths. Drafting Settings 3D Object Snap tab is fully live (was dead placeholders); Nearest-to-face off by default. TDD: behavioral LINE-to-solid tests plus engine/scene unit tests.
- IMAGEEMBED: pack raster images into OLE2FRAME entities so a .dwg is
self-contained; 'Embed Image' entry in the XREF attach menu; control/MCP
op embed_image for external tools; dxf_name for OLE2FRAME queries.
- Scene: populate_images_from_document now rebuilds OLE2FRAME and PDF
underlay models too (they used to vanish after any XREF op).
- Printing: add PRINTER_ENUM_NETWORK pass when listing printers; GDI
spooler fallback (hayro raster at 300 DPI + StretchDIBits) for hosts
whose PDF handler registers no print verb; DEVMODE orientation with a
90-degree raster rotation fallback for v4 drivers; fix the fit-scale
precedence bug that printed blank pages.
- PDF export dialogs on Windows use the async file dialog so the native
overwrite confirmation no longer deadlocks the UI thread.
- Plot dialog: persist the chosen printer (saved on selection) and the
picked plot window across sessions; page setups with no device no
longer reset the output device.
- Community fonts: detect unresolvable .shx references on open and offer
a download from the repository's fonts/ folder (contribution guide in
fonts/README.md); custom font source URL setting for intranet font
servers; downloaded fonts resolve from the per-user fonts directory.
PropValue::ParamRow/ParamAddRow, the PropParamInput/Commit/Delete/AddNew
messages, their command_driver handlers (on_prop_param_commit/_delete/
_add_new, resolve_named_parameter_edit), and their render functions all
already existed — but nothing ever constructed the "Parameters" section
that would route data to them, so the whole inline add/rename/redefine/
delete workflow was unreachable from the UI. Adds that missing section
to the no-selection page in refresh_properties, alongside a new
PropValue::ParamsVisibilityToggle header row (mirrors the existing
show_constraint_values setting) for toggling whether constraint pills
show their driven value/parameter name.
Users can now manage named parameters inline in the Properties panel
(live resolved values, add/rename/redefine/delete) as an alternative to
the separate PARAMETERS modal, which continues to work unchanged.

value toggle, and redesigned constraint-ribbon icons
Properties panel:
- New "Parameters" section (shown with no selection) listing every named
parameter with inline name/formula editing, add, and delete, backed by
new PropValue::ParamRow/ParamAddRow and command_driver handlers
(resolve_named_parameter_edit, on_prop_param_commit/_delete/_add_new).
A fresh parameter's formula now defaults to "1", not "0" — a 0-length
seed value is a genuine solver singularity for a Distance constraint
driven by that parameter, with no defined direction to grow back out of.
- New "Constraints" section (shown for a single selected entity) listing
every constraint touching it as a clickable PropValue::EntityLink that
selects the linked entities in the viewport, danger-tinted when the
constraint conflicts.
Constraint pills:
- New Options > General toggle, "Show values and parameter names on
constraint markers" (on by default, persisted). Off, every pill shows
just its bare glyph instead of glyph+driven-value/parameter-name — the
glyph alone is enough to see a constraint is present, without the value
text covering nearby geometry on a dense sketch.
Constraint-ribbon icons:
- Replaced all 18 unicode/letter glyph icons (including the plain "F",
"L", "M", "S" letters) with proper SVGs under assets/icons/constrain/,
matching the Modify section's two-color style (#B4B6B9 white / #6DB7ED
blue, consistent stroke width). Tangent reuses the Draw section's
white-arc-plus-blue-dots motif.
