Four field kinds in the schema, each checked and described in JSON Schema: labels (nodes or
elements, typed as 1-5, 8 with Use selection taking the viewport's picks), points (rows of
x, y, z, added and removed), multi (checkboxes: coupling DOFs, step output) and number or
auto (the deformed scale). Node and element lists, probe and Delaunay points and block
corners use them; the remaining JSON fields hold geometry-specific shapes.

The context panel reads mesh.quality's reply as the counts (an area only for a surface mesh),
each metric's min, mean and max over its histogram (the bad end warm), and its worst element: a
click selects and frames it. Invalid and undetermined elements have a button that selects
and frames them.

results.export.csv runs solve.probe or results.reactions and writes their reply as an RFC 4180
CSV: a row per node (node, x, y, z and the quantities the step has, columns it does not have
left out) or per set with the total and the applied load; numbers in shortest round-trip form,
so they read back bit for bit. A stale result is refused. The results panel has Export CSV…
beside Reaction sums and under the probed node: the save picker, or the form without one.

results.contour takes range {min?, max?} (or "auto"), kept until the field changes: a
singular peak no longer squeezes the field into the bottom bands. Values above a clamped
maximum go to an extra band drawn in the over colour, split exactly at the clamp; the legend
shows that band up to the true maximum and says it is clamped. The results panel has Legend
max/min (Auto or a value), the MCP show_results tool a range argument, and headless pictures
follow the clamp too.

diagnostics.crash_reports.delete deletes one report or all. The window lists each report
(when, what, how many times) with Report…, Copy Path and Delete, and Delete All; ui.prompt
answers it over the control channel.

The README video's model as a sample: the corpus cantilever-i-beam design opened as geometry,
swept all-hex, clamped at F2:start, 1 kN on F2:top through a kinematic coupling; static step
Load. It has a Start-card thumbnail and a gallery capture; a test checks its tip deflection
against beam theory with shear.

file.new replaces the session with an empty one: no design, mesh, definitions, results or
journal, nothing to save, the undo history empty. The File menu and Cmd/Ctrl+N run it, asking
first over unsaved changes. A sample name the app does not know (a typo, an old ?sample= link)
opens the samples to choose from, and the status names it.

Persistent names grow with a design's split history; opening accepted them but mesh tags, sets
and loads capped geometry names at 256 characters. One cap (64 KiB, against hostile input)
now holds for geometry references, partitions and saved views.

One formatter (four significant digits, thousands separators, round-off as
0) and the model's units through every results readout:
- legend title with its unit, a mode shape normalised; Max/Min with units,
clickable to show and probe the node; markers at both in the viewport
(#321, #330)
- the deformation scale field shows the scale Deformed would use, never 0,
in the shared format; true scale named (#325, #326)
- setup symbols off over results by default (Show › Loads & BCs), and then
only the shown step's (#327)
- reaction sums in the results panel however they are run: per set and in
all, force and moment with units, applied beside reacted (#328)
- the probe: U [mm], |U|, Mises, stresses and principals with units, the
label kept inside the viewport, rows in the results panel (#329)
- hiding the mesh over a plot hides the element edges, not the contours
(#317); a hidden body's contours go with it, the range follows what is
shown (#365)
- the solve summary: peaks with units, n/a rows left out, counts grouped,
internals under Details (#321, #319)
- the energies plot: axes with units, a cursor at the frame (click or drag
to move it), hover to read (#331)

- DisplayMesh::from_model_hiding leaves out a hidden body's elements (and the
nodes only they use); Session::hidden_elements names them, so the viewport,
probing and headless pictures skip hidden bodies (#365).
- A solve summary's applied and reaction totals set the round-off of
cancelling sums to 0 (#319).
- results::principal for the probe's principal stresses (#329).

- Quantity names the unit of every number the results show from the model's
unit system (mm, MPa, N, N·mm, mJ, mW, °C or K); Field::title puts it in the
legend title, and calls a mode shape normalised (#321).
- A solved step's result stays current through edits that leave what it reads
alone (Model::step_inputs: other steps and what only they use), and comes
back current on undo (#318).
- Session::step_glyphs: the symbols of what a solved step used, for drawing
over its results; no load arrows on a frequency step's modes (#327).
- Nonlinear static steps open deformed at true scale like explicit ones, and
their automatic scale is 1 (auto_scale, shared by the viewport and the
headless pictures) (#326).
- results.reactions with an empty sets list sums the step's boundary-condition
sets, as its form says (#328).

- Select: Vertices picks the design's B-rep vertices (meshed or not), and
a selected vertex is marked (#346).
- Use selection on Datum Point (vertex, edge, face, or a hole's centre)
and Reference Point (geometry.centre: a hole's centre, a vertex, nodes)
(#346, #351).
- Partitioned Mesh: Use selection takes the picked bodies as cells; the
cell list has All, None and Invert; hovering a cell's row (or its method
row) highlights the cell in the viewport (#344).
- Rigid Wall's form takes its set from the selection; the Interactions
branch lists the explicit steps' rigid walls, each opening its step
(#350).

- geometry.bodies lists each body's vertices; geometry.datum.point by
vertex takes the design's vertex names (labelled Vertex, not Mesh
vertex) (#346).
- geometry.centre: the point for what is picked: a vertex, nodes, a
hole's centre (cylindrical faces or circular edges), else a centroid
(#351).
- mesh.cells' form: the cells first, and a method drop-down per cell
(schema kind RefChoices) instead of JSON (#344).
- interaction.rigid_wall(.delete): rigid walls of an explicit step from
the Interactions tab, no longer coming soon (#350).

SolidCraft names the pieces of a split body by stacking suffixes
(Bracket (1) (1)' (1)). On opening a design, the pieces of one body are
named <body>.1 … <body>.N, ordered by centroid, so the tree, tooltips,
forms and picks read as one part with numbered cells.

Meshes that do not tag their element edges with the design's edge names
(tet, hex, blocks) left a selected edge with no highlight while the mesh
was shown. The edge is now marked along its own polyline, which the scene
already draws over the mesh.

The design file stores no measure to compare with, so the rebuild's own
failures are the guard: each failed feature lists the bodies it names (all of
them when it names none), and geometry.open replies with a warning per failure,
which the window shows with the open.

- A solve or a mesher runs as a job with one progress mechanism: the overlay
shows the step, stage, count and elapsed time with a bar when bounded, OK
waits while it runs, and the status sums it up (elements, smallest angle,
time) (#322, #357).
- Over the control channel such a command is a job too: answered when it
ends however long it runs, or at once with wait: false, then job.status,
job.wait, job.cancel; ui.inspect gives job; MCP waits for it (#367).
- A command that cannot run yet lists what it misses in the context panel,
each with a button to the command that provides it (#323).
- A cancelled or refused solve stays in its workspace (#324, test).
- A mesher form starts from the parameters of the mesh it would replace (#343).
- Seed Edges and edge/vertex/face datum points switch the selection filter
while open and restore it (#341).
- Datum forms draw the datum live, the Partition form shows its datum, and
new datums and partitions get the next free name (#347).

The setup checklist marks the mesh Outdated (a warm ⚠ in the browser, with
what changed and where to remesh) when seeds, partitions or datum planes
changed after the last mesher ran, and model.check warns (#342). Replacing
a mesh asks with the element type change it makes, such as tet10 → tet4 (#343).

solve.heat's reply and the results report give heat_flows: each convection,

total and their sum; the results panel lists them for a heat step.

fieldcraft_model::progress: a host installs a Progress on the worker thread
and reads its snapshot from another; the engine names the step being solved,
the nonlinear solver its load factor, the explicit solver its time, the
fluid solver its steps, transient heat its increments and the tet mesher its
stage and pass. Without one installed every report is a no-op (#322, #357).

A checkbox whose key is unset shows the field's default (#353). An empty JSON
field shows its format hint (#340). Vector components share a line only when
each fits a value such as -12000, else take a line each (#339). A space typed
in a definition name becomes _ and the form says why (#320).

Every command with a schema now refuses a top-level key it does not take,
naming the key and the accepted ones (#316). A bad definition name's error
suggests the nearest valid one (#320). The load and material params docs list
the heat loads and the thermal block.

A non-zero prescribed displacement is an arrow leaving the nodes along the
motion (its held degrees of freedom stay supports); a prescribed temperature
is a thermometer, convection a wave off the faces, a heat flux an arrow onto
them. In the tree, thermal conditions carry the heat icon and a moving
boundary condition a motion arrow.
