Avoid full document, cache, and GPU rebuilds for entity deltas so add, delete, history, selection, and live polyline edits stay responsive on large drawings.
Replace the raw sentinel input with typed CAD lineweight options so special
values display correctly and unsupported values cannot be entered.
Refs #522
Hold edit leases and compare disk fingerprints before replacement so another editor cannot be silently overwritten.
Offer retry, reload, Save As, or explicit overwrite recovery.
Closes#498
Keep resident wires, draw depths, GPU slabs, and edit history incremental across entity changes. Defer rollover work to avoid cursor jumps on dense drawings.
Replace full-document snapshots with Arc first-touch deltas and batch cache invalidation. Reuse interaction and GPU category caches across unrelated edits.
Anchor the opposite viewport corner during grip and STRETCH resizing.
Match plotted stroke-font pen widths to the SDF atlas unless CTB overrides.
Closes#435
Selecting a proxy object we render from its cached graphics (an AEC
Wall/Door/Window and the like) showed "Unknown" as its type. The entity
now carries its real DXF class name from the CLASSES section (acadrust
bump), so surface it: ui_name_or_class title-cases the class ("AEC_WALL"
→ "Aec Wall") for the properties Type row and the status-bar label, and
still says "Unknown" only when the class truly can't be named.

PR #446 kept a fully-copied group grouped for the in-drawing COPY/ARRAY
path, but clipboard paste (Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V, PASTECLIP) runs through
finalize_paste, a separate route that never touched groups — so pasted
copies came out ungrouped, and a cross-drawing paste had no group data at
all.
Unify all copy routes on one shared Scene::recreate_groups(sources,
handle_map): copy_complete_groups now gathers the live source groups and
delegates to it, while paste snapshots the complete groups into the
clipboard at copy time (ClipboardDeps.groups) and recreates them over the
pasted handles. A group whose whole membership is copied now stays grouped
whether the copy lands in the same drawing, via the clipboard, or in a
different file; partially-selected groups still stay ungrouped.

The embedded DWG preview was the whole drawing fit to a canvas, encoded
as a 24-bit uncompressed DIB (~180 KB at 256²) — the bulk of the gap
between an OCS-saved file and AutoCAD's. Three changes:
- Frame it like the screen. `from_scene` now projects every wire vertex
through the live camera into a viewport-aspect canvas, so the thumbnail
is the current pan / zoom / rotation and only the visible region, not
the full extent. Off-screen / clipped segments don't draw (a `None`
projection or NaN separator breaks the polyline run). Works for any
view. `stamp_thumbnail` passes the model pane's pixel size and the
target version.
- PNG for R2013+ (AC1027+). A line drawing on a flat background is almost
one colour, so PNG collapses to a few KB. PNG previews are only valid
from R2013, so older targets keep a BMP.
- BMP is now 8-bit palettised, BI_RLE8-compressed (was 24-bit raw). The
long single-colour runs of a preview compress to a handful of KB; a
view with >256 colours (rare) falls back to the 24-bit DIB. A full
256-entry palette is written so the reader's `(1<<bpp)*4` pixel-data
offset lands correctly.
Net: the preview drops from ~120 KB to ~2-5 KB on every version.

PURGE left behind three classes of dead data that AutoCAD removes,
so an OCS-purged drawing stayed far larger than AutoCAD's (a 23 MB test
file purged to 3.5 MB in OCS vs 0.58 MB in AutoCAD):
- Anonymous blocks (`*U`/`*D`/`*T`/dynamic-block variants) were skipped
wholesale. Leftover unreferenced ones now purge like AutoCAD's, held
live only when actually referenced.
- Block liveness now comes from REACHABILITY: a block is kept only if it
is reached from a real layout container by following block references
(INSERT names, dimension *D, table *T / cell blocks, MultiLeader
content). The old flat "named by some INSERT" scan could not free a
mutually-referencing dead subgraph — e.g. the dependent blocks a
detached xref leaves behind, whose head carried a DANGLING layout
handle that `is_layout()` mistook for a real layout and shielded. That
subgraph (here 467k lines) is now purged; live xrefs, reached from the
layout that inserts them, stay. The used-set also gains the by-handle
block references (table/MultiLeader/dimstyle-arrow) so purging
anonymous blocks can't delete an in-use block no INSERT names.
- SortEntitiesTable objects (per-block draw order) were never removed, so
each purged block's table lingered still listing the handle of every
deleted entity — 341k stale handles / ~2.7 MB of dead weight the save
re-emitted. Drop every table whose owning block is gone.
Net on the test file: 3.5 MB -> 0.81 MB (AutoCAD 0.58 MB).

The Save-As dialog hard-coded the format dropdown to the latest
(DWG/DXF 2018) regardless of what was opened, so a round-trip silently
re-targeted the version. Default it to the loaded document's own version
and DWG-vs-DXF kind instead (from `document.version` + the file
extension), which always matches one of the dropdown options. A new,
unsaved drawing keeps its document default. QSAVE on an existing file
already preserved the version; only Save-As was wrong.

entity_wires() cloned the entire wire set — every point, fill, and snap
buffer of every entity — on each call, although the set is already
memoized behind an Arc and none of the 18 call sites mutates it. On
large mesh imports (#358: 42M faces, ~210 MB of wire content per 1M
triangles) that is a multi-GB allocation + memcpy on every pick, snap,
selection, or plot pass.
Return the Arc instead. Call sites iterate as before; the two
window-plot paths that build a culled owned subset now clone only the
wires inside the plot window, and the print pipeline moves the Arc into
its async task.
Measured (tests/mem_probe_meshent.rs, 1M-triangle MESH, release):
resident after entity_wires() drops 758 -> 547 MB (866 -> 646 B/face).

PICKADD 0 = click/box/lasso replaces the selection (Shift toggles),
empty click clears; PICKADD 1 (default) keeps today's accumulate.
PICKDRAG 1 = press-drag spans a rectangle marquee through the box
machinery; PICKDRAG 0 (default) keeps the freeform lasso. Both persist
in settings.json. Also re-points the start-page gate test at the
start_allowed fn it moved into (#388/389 refactor left it broken).
Closes#226
