Open the Edit Block Definition dialog when BEDIT is invoked without an active selection, listing candidate block definitions alphabetically while filtering layout records, anonymous blocks, and external references. Allow typing a new valid block name to start an empty block editor session that only commits to the drawing block table upon explicit save.
Preview the current unsaved block in a disposable drawing with independent history. Keep normal Draw tools available, append Close Test Block, and return to the original editor without saving. Guard persistence paths and handle refresh and parent-close lifecycle by stable document identity.
- 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.

A code the reference shows on two buttons runs the button whose command
the reference runs for it (VC runs Viewport Configuration), decided by
the code table's order. Labels, combo values and panel titles report
their bounds while key tips are open, and each code takes the first
spot nearest the reference place that covers none of them nor another
code; a collapsed panel's title is measured to place its code beside
the words.

- Editor modes RGB, HSB and CMYK; the saturation/brightness field and hue
strip now sit below the sliders in every mode instead of being a mode.
- The panel opens on the Document tab.
- Built-in colour books: RAL CLASSIC and SIKKENS 4041 (Open Colour
Systems Collection 2.0, CC BY-ND 4.0); CSS COLORS removed.

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.

Quick-access buttons take the numbers the reference toolbar gives the
same buttons (Print 6, Undo 7, Redo 8). Codes the reference shows on two
buttons appear on both, the first in ribbon order running. Codes sit
where the reference puts them: under tab and large-button labels, on a
large dropdown's arrow strip, with their corner at the icon's centre on
icon buttons, and centred on panel titles and the corner launcher; a
button code a panel code would cover rises clear of it.

The end angle subtracted a whole octant less the end offset, so the arc
in the ISOCP 9 stopped about 45 degrees short and the glyph shrank to
0.68 of the cap height; clockwise arcs and n = 0 (a full circle) drew
nothing.

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.

A save records the entered model viewport (or the sheet) as the layout's
last active viewport, and opening the layout enters it again with its
UCS. Picks up the codec fix that kept a last-active link from being read
as the sheet viewport (codec d57097c, kernel b40fa59, graph 2360341).

During in-place reference editing everything outside the working set
fades by XFADECTL. A DWF underlay's page now stays as it is, like a
raster image or a PDF page, and only its frame fades; a DGN underlay's
content keeps fading with the rest.

A reference's layer 0 and Defpoints are not dependent symbols: its
objects on them use the host's layers of those names, which are made
from the reference's only when the host has none. Before, they became
XREF|0 / XREF|Defpoints on load and XREF$0$0 on bind.

PDF dash entries are whole points in the plot's user space; on an inch
sheet a 0.1 in dash rounded to the 1-unit floor, so every short pattern
plotted as 1 in on, 1 in off.

Picking nested objects reports what each pick added ("1 entity added",
"0 entities added" for an object already in the set), a pick on empty
space starts a window ("Specify opposite corner:"; a window dragged to
the right takes the objects inside it, to the left those it touches),
and a typed point picks the object it lies on. From the Reference Edit
dialog the item count is printed when the session opens, followed by
"Use REFCLOSE or the Refedit toolbar to end reference editing session."

Every weight under 0.26 mm was clamped to the screen's 1 px floor before
the PDF and SVG exporters saw it, so 0.00, 0.09, 0.13 and 0.25 mm all
plotted alike. The floor now applies on the GPU only.

A selection of several unconnected chains, or one holding a closed

The docked panel and Quick Properties render the same rows from one
state, so a picked colour opened both dropdowns and each swallowed the
other's click.

With TAN and CEN on, hovering a circle offered its centre everywhere on

A ten-minute time::every on wasm piles up long setTimeouts in the shared
wasmtimer driver until it stops waking every timer, which silenced the

#1776 left its dialog in English outside tr-TR and added the

A lone Alt shows a code on every ribbon tab and quick-access button.
Typing a tab code opens the tab and shows the codes of its buttons,
dropdowns, slide-outs and collapsed panels; a button code runs it, a
dropdown or slide-out code opens it and shows its item codes, Esc goes
back one level. Codes follow the reference ribbon; buttons without a
reference counterpart get none and unnamed menu items are numbered.
Codes are drawn as accent pills over the widgets that reported their
bounds in the current frame, with a hint bar under the ribbon. While
the tips are open keys go to them only. The automation gets a keytips
action and read operation.

Synchronize the native parametric graph only when replay changes constraints or named parameters. Geometry and visibility history preserve existing imported network identities and ownership. Add a regression for a rejected block copy followed by local undo and redo.
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.
The right-edge toolbar of a REFEDIT session now shows the definition
being edited (REFEDITNAME) as an accent pill with the number of objects
in the working set, Add to / Remove from Working Set buttons with their
own icons (REFSET Add / Remove, straight to object selection), and
Save / Discard in a separate group below a rule.

REFEDIT opens a dialog after the pick: the nesting chain as chips with a
preview of the chosen definition, all objects or picking them in the
drawing, attribute definitions (offered only when the definition has
them), locking objects outside the working set and unique names for an
external reference's named objects. The settings are remembered.
With unique names an xref's dependent layers, linetypes, text styles and
blocks are checked out as $N$NAME records of their own; without, under
the plain name, sharing a host record of that name. Save writes them back
under the reference's names, and the records made for the session are
removed when it closes. -REFEDIT uses the remembered settings.

IMAGEADJUST (alias IAD) takes the selected raster images or asks
"Select image(s):", then opens a dialog with a before/after preview of
the first image and brightness, contrast and fade rows (bar plus
stepper, whole numbers 0-100). Apply writes the values to every chosen
image as one undo step; restore defaults sets 50/50/0. Adds the
image_adjust automation action and the image-adjust locale group.

In the Block Editor, BVSTATE makes a new visibility state, makes one
current, renames or deletes one; BVHIDE and BVSHOW hide or show the
picked objects in the current state (BVSHOW shows every object of the
block while they are picked). The first use makes the block dynamic.
The states are stored as the format keeps them: a
BLOCKVISIBILITYPARAMETER in the block's ACAD_ENHANCEDBLOCK evaluation
graph with its visibility grip and the grip's two location expressions,
the round-trip purge preventer, AcDbDynamicBlockTrueName /
AcDbDynamicBlockGUID / AcDbBlockRepETag on the definition and element
tags on each of its objects. The definition shows its first state; a
reference given another state gets its own evaluated *U copy, tagged
AcDbBlockRepBTag and linked back through AcDbBlockRepresentation /
AcDbRepData, so it shows that state and the other references do not
change. Saving the block drops erased objects from the states.
Checked: a block authored this way reads back with its states and
reference link from DWG and DXF, and the ODA converter accepts the DWG.

add_layout took the sheet viewport out, so the first viewport added to
the layout afterwards (by automation, or a plugin) was read as the sheet
and the scale pill and paper camera followed it. The sheet now stays and
is fitted to the page when the layout first opens; a layout saved before
that is still written without viewports.

Opening a layout whose page setup was never filled in took every viewport
out of it, including viewports onto the model a file carries (plenty of
DXF writers leave the paper fields empty). With only the sheet taken out
instead, the next viewport would have been read as the sheet. The sheet
is now fitted to the new page and every other viewport stays.
A layout saved as never opened keeps its state when it already holds a
viewport onto the model (one added by automation), and only its sheet is
taken out otherwise.
