The codec and kernel repositories and crates are renamed opencadcodec and
opencadkernel. Inside OCS they are depended on under short keys, so code
reads `codec::`, `kernel::` and the new `graph::` (opencadgraph, the node
graph engine). File-format and protocol spellings stay as they were: the
ACIS product id `acadrust`, the ACADRUST_* switches and the plugin
version keys `acadrust_version` / `acadrust_source`.
A button left of MCP on the command line opens a translucent node graph
over the viewport, with a palette of object, input, math, logic, list,
text and geometry nodes added by click or drag. An object node owns
drawing entities and its rows are the Properties panel's own rows for
them: the single-object page is extracted from refresh_properties as
entity_property_sections, values use the control protocol's
property_json, and writes go through set_property_value with a property
target override, so the panel, MCP and the graph share one read/write
path. A list reaching an object row makes one entity per element. Each
graph action is one undo step; the canvas pans and zooms.

The second line kept its midpoint and turned around it, so it settled at a
different offset than the reference, which keeps the line's start along the
first line and moves it to the distance the picked point had from it.

#1447 branched from the same commit as #1443 and rewrote the radial
dimensional constraint a second time, so the two designs had to be
reconciled rather than stacked. #1447's is the one kept: it covers
DCRADIUS and DCDIAMETER through one command, places the dimension by the
direction the location was picked in rather than storing a text point,
and names the parameters `radN` / `diaN`. #1443's radial command result,
its entity builder call and its follow-up code are gone; its own
independent work stays — the ribbon's small-button grid and tool
descriptions, the magnitude reading of a negative radius, and the centre
anchor a parameter edit resizes a circle about.
The DIMCONSTRAINT default follows #1443: running DCRADIUS or DCDIAMETER
directly leaves it alone, and the Dispatch arm sets it when DIMCONSTRAINT
is what asked for the command.
The second commit's radial drawing — the dimension line broken around the
text, the elbowed leader, the centre-mark and arrowhead rules — applied to
every radius and diameter dimension, not just a constraint's, and three
layout-parity tests said the old layout was the measured one. It is now
scoped to a dimensional constraint's own dimension, as #1443 scoped its
version, and ordinary radial dimensions draw as they did.

The commands ask for the circle or arc themselves, report the measured
size, take a dimension line location and then the value or name and
value, creating a radius or diameter dimension as the constraint's
dynamic dimension with a radN/diaN parameter, refusing a second radial
constraint on the same object and any non-positive value.

Select arc or circle / Dimension text / dimension line location / value or
name prompts with a radN parameter, invalid-selection, miss, duplicate and
invalid-expression messages, negative values as magnitudes, a dynamic radial
dimension on the constraints layer drawn as the reference does (mid-radius
text on the center-to-rim line, no hook, no center mark, one text grip), the
stored text position following the radius, center-anchored resizing, the
Properties title and Constraint section, DIMCONSTRAINT's Radius default,
the small-button Dimensional ribbon grid and tooltip descriptions.

DCANGULAR picks two lines, an arc or three points, takes the dimension
line location to choose the sector and the value or name, and creates the
dynamic two-line or three-point angular dimension driven by an angN
parameter. Reference messages for invalid, repeated and parallel sides,
existing names and invalid names; angle values display within one turn at
the angular precision; the first side (or vertex and first point) stays
when the value changes; the ribbon Dimensional panel follows the reference
order.

Point & line and 2Lines take a text baseline or an ellipse axis as the
line; a zero value folds the points onto the first one; 2Lines turns the
second line about its start. The Properties Constraint section edits
Constraint Form (Dynamic on the *ADSK_CONSTRAINTS layer, Annotational on
the current layer), Reference (driven constraint in parentheses whose
parameter follows the measurement) and Description (stored with the
parameter and the native variable). Dynamic dimensions keep a 12 px text
and 8 px arrows at any zoom, drop trailing zeros and show formulas as
`fx: len=d1*2`; the hidden constraints layer stays out of the layer lists.

DCFORM sets the annotational or dynamic form and continues into the
DIMCONSTRAINT option prompt, whose wording and last-used default match the
reference. -PARAMETERS manages parameters from the command line; a
double-clicked constraint dimension opens its value prompt. Dynamic
dimensions rescale on every camera change and their display overrides stay
out of the saved file. A driving dimension between an entity's own ends no
longer has its length retained, so a new value moves the second point along
the dimension axis; parameter edits hold the first constraint point.

DCALIGNED opens with `[Object/Point & line/2Lines] <Object>`. Point & line
asks `Specify constraint point or [Line] <Line>:` then `Select line:` (or the
line first and `Select constraint point:`), measures perpendicular to the
line from the constraint point to the line end nearest to it, and stores a
directed distance with the line as direction reference. 2Lines asks
`Select first line:` and `Select second line to make parallel:`, adds a
Parallel constraint solved with the first line pinned, then measures on the
solved geometry between the nearest ends. Unsupported line picks report the
reference's message; the same measurement again reports `The constraint
already exists on the selected objects.` and ends the command; an invalid
expression reports both reference lines and asks again.
The offered default and seeded expression carry twelve significant digits;
a typed value moves the second point (or the other object) while the first
point and its measured line stay, negative values keep their sign in the
parameter and use their magnitude, zero folds the points together, and the
dynamic dimension's origins follow every solve. The lock mark sits after the
text, a selected dynamic dimension shows triangle grips at its points and the
text square, and its Properties show the Constraint section (Name and
Expression editable) plus Text rotation.

The dynamic dimension of a dimensional constraint is now linked in the
drawing file (AcDbAssocDependency + AcDbAssocDimDependencyBody on the
constraint node), reread on load, hidden by DCHIDE/DYNCONSTRAINTDISPLAY
and never plotted; it carries a lock mark before its text. New
CONSTRAINTNAMEFORMAT and DYNCONSTRAINTDISPLAY variables and the
DIMCONSTRAINT option front end. A transformed entity whose own end points
a driving dimension measures keeps only the first constraint point, so a
scaled line returns to its dimension value.

DCLINEAR, DCHORIZONTAL, DCVERTICAL and DCALIGNED follow the reference flow:
`Specify first constraint point or [Object] <Object>:`, `Specify second
constraint point:`, `Specify dimension line location:`, then `Dimension
text = …` and `Enter value or name and value <d1=100>:`. Linear reads
horizontal or vertical from the dimension line location the way a linear
dimension does; Object takes a line's, an arc's or a polyline segment's
ends. A miss reports `No valid constraint point found.` / `No object
found.` and asks again; another object type reports `Invalid selection for
Linear. Select a line, polyline segment or arc.`.
Each constraint creates a drawing parameter (`d1`, `d2`, …, or the typed
`name=expression`), drives the constraint through it, and draws a dynamic
dimension in constraint gray whose text follows CONSTRAINTNAMEFORMAT
(`d1=100.0000`); the dimension is associated with the constrained objects
and its text is refreshed after every solve. A typed value other than the
measured one moves the second point while the first stays, and so does a
later parameter edit. Deleting the constraint removes its dimension and,
when nothing else reads it, its parameter.

A second object of the wrong kind (a circle after a line, a line after a
circle) or a pair that already carries Equal now reports and asks for the
second object again instead of ending the command. The mismatch message
names what the first object asks for — `Select a line segment, polyline
segment, text, MText, major or minor axis of ellipse or elliptical arc.`
after a length object, `Select a circle or arc.` after a radius object —
and the same-pick message carries the reference's double space.

- An object that carries several Equal relations shows a single "="
badge, as the reference does, instead of one stacked badge per relation.
- A pick made in the Multiple flow leaves its new constraint bar unshown
until the object is selected or bars are shown, matching the reference;
the single flow still shows the bar at once.
- A typed coordinate at the Fix `Select object:` prompt and at the
Horizontal/Vertical `Select an object or [2Points]` prompt picks the
object under that point, like a click, instead of being read as a point.

Multiple now follows the reference flow: every pick after the first is
made equal right away under `Select object to make equal to first:` and
Enter ends the command with `Length of objects made equal` (or `Radius
…`). A typed coordinate at one of the command's object prompts picks the
object under that point instead of being refused as a point.

Equal was applied through a generic gather-then-apply flow and, with the
default size-retaining solve mode, never changed anything: the solver
held both sizes and the relation could not be met. Now:
- GCEQUAL joins ECONSTRAINT and GEOMCONSTRAINT Equal; both objects are
picked inside the command (`Select first object or [Multiple]:`,
`Select second object:`; Multiple gathers `Select objects to make equal
to the first:`), a selection made beforehand is not used, a miss says
`No object found.` and re-asks, an unsupported object or the same object
twice is reported and re-asked, a repeat is refused.
- The follower is resized in place before the relation is added: a line or
straight polyline segment keeps its start and direction and its end
moves to the first object's length; a circle or arc keeps its center and
takes the radius.
- During edits the side that is not being edited follows the same rule:
its size is not retained, its start (or center) and other vertices are
held and its direction kept, so only its length or radius changes; a
chain of Equal relations follows along.

The first empty-space click of the 2Points flow was only resolved against
the document together with the second one, so "No valid constraint point
found." appeared one pick late. The command now hands the first pick to
the host (`CmdResult::CheckHorizontalPoint`), which resolves it right away:
a miss reports and re-asks for the first point, a hit moves on to the
second point.

1) VCONSTRAINT (and the new GCVERTICAL name) uses the axis constraint flow:
"Select an object or [2Points] <2Points>:", 2Points mode with the
reference's re-prompts and messages, and the same object types as
Horizontal — line, polyline segment, text, MText, ellipse axis.
2) Object mode turns the object about its first vertex; a two-point relation
across two objects slides the second object rigidly onto the axis.
3) Re-applying an axis constraint reports that the constraint already
exists; Vertical follows the UCS Y direction.
4) The constraint bar draws Vertical as the reference's axis mark, with the
point marker for a two-point relation.

1) FXCONSTRAINT (and the new GCFIX name) prompts "Select point or [Object]
<Object>:" — a pick fixes that constraint point; Enter or O asks for one
line, polyline segment, circle, arc, ellipse or spline; misses and
unsupported objects report the reference messages and re-prompt.
2) Point, block, text, MText, attribute and table insertion points are
addressable constraint points.
3) Re-applying Fixed to the same point or object reports that the constraint
already exists instead of adding a duplicate.
4) A persistent Fixed holds its pre-edit geometry through MOVE, ROTATE,
SCALE, STRETCH, grip and Properties edits: fixed points stay, free points
of a partly fixed entity follow the edit, and size retention skips fixed
entities.
5) Object mode on a polyline fixes the picked segment (natively persisted)
instead of the whole polyline; arc segments pin endpoints, center and
radius.
6) Ribbon label "Fix" with a padlock icon.
