- IGES import (kernel iges_in, from the published specification). The file
is restated as STEP and read by the STEP reader, so an IGES file becomes
the same Import base feature.
- Manifold solid B-reps (186/514/510/508/504/502).
- Trimmed (144), bounded (143) and bare B-spline surfaces, sewn into a
solid by shared edges, with face orientation made consistent.
- Curves: lines, arcs, ellipses, composite and rational B-spline curves.
- Surfaces: planes, analytic surfaces 190-198, B-spline surfaces,
surfaces of revolution and tabulated cylinders.
- Transformations, units, colours, names (406 form 15 or labels).
Open, insert and drop .igs/.iges like STEP.
- IGES export (kernel iges_out): each body as a manifold solid B-rep on the
surfaces a STEP export uses, with name properties and colours.
ExportCommand to .igs.
- OBJ import as mesh bodies: objects/groups, polygons fanned, negative
indices, bad lines reported.
- STL: binary files whose header starts with "solid" and those with a zero
triangle count read as binary; non-finite vertices dropped; facet
normals ignored; ASCII with non-UTF-8 names. Mesh bodies get consistent
winding (stray inverted facets turned over).
- Tests: primitives and features round-trip through IGES (volume, area,
name, colour). Six trimmed patches sew into a closed box. Hostile IGES,
OBJ and STL inputs never panic. STL quirks. The engine exports a design
to IGES and opens it again. All 76 oracle parts round-trip through IGES
with matching volume (local check).

What a component holds moves with its occurrence, and picks in the world land in the
component's frame:
- Sketches and construction planes show where their component is placed (free move, joint
drive, Capture Position); sketch.inspect reports sketch points in the world.
- frames.rs maps a command's world picks into the frame of the body they lie on (through the
inverse of its placement: a moved component or a pasted instance), points that make new
geometry into the active component's frame, and directions with them; instance body names
("Body1 (Pin:2)") become the component's body. Fillet/chamfer edges, shell/offset/draft
faces, face extrude/revolve, sketch on face, holes, sheet metal and plastic picks, primitives,
appearance faces, analyses. Once per command (not again for commands run by commands); the
active-frame fallback stays for commands without a table. Nothing changes while every
placement is the identity.
- component.move_bodies keeps a body where it is in the world (Document.body_offsets: from the
new component's frame to the one it was made in; renames and deleted components follow).
- The UI reads the placed model (Session::world_state) for display, picking, sketch editing and
dialogs; live previews use it once anything is placed.
Tests (engine): sketches and construction planes move (and turn) with the component; world
picks fillet, sketch, hole and make boxes in a moved component; a pick on a pasted instance;
move_bodies keeps the world place there and back; a sketch on a face follows a Move feature.
QA's s34 now runs.

The read-back check (fallback to unmerged pieces) imported every export.
Now it runs only when some body actually had faces merged. Oracle 41
(42 faces, nothing merged): export no longer re-imports, which saved 7 s.
Pipe flange (merges): 1.1 s for the read-back.

- Bodies carry a Paint for export (opacity, per-face colours), set by
Document::painted from the appearance model. The paint comes from a
face appearance, a body/component appearance's opacity or a material
look (Glass), and falls back to the paint the body was imported with.
- STEP: faces with colours of their own get a STYLED_ITEM on their
ADVANCED_FACE. See-through looks add SURFACE_STYLE_TRANSPARENT.
Differently coloured pieces are not merged into one face.
- STEP import reads face styles and transparency. The reader tracks the
file face of each kernel face (bands split in two keep it), so imported
face colours land on the right faces; the design shows them through
face_colors.
- 3MF: per-triangle colours (pid/p1 into the base materials, carried
through welding) and the object's alpha (#RRGGBBAA).
- Tests: a blue half-transparent cube with a red top exports, re-imports
with its opacity and the red top face, and keeps it when opened and
exported again. 3MF writes the alpha and the face entry.

Fusion round trip WARNs on face counts:
- 48: the pulley's annular end faces arrived as 240° and 120° sectors.
- 54: the side faces and holes of a body glued to its mirror image came
in halves.
Changes:
- Planes merge: PLANE faces and flat B-spline sheets, as well as revolved
planes. A plane keeps several loops (an annulus, a face with holes), no
seam. Flat B-spline sheets are written as PLANE.
- Pieces of an extruded cylinder (B-spline sheets) merge when their edges
are circles square to the axis. The merged face is written as a
CYLINDRICAL_SURFACE, with its parameter seam on the face's seam edge.
- A full turn's loop is built explicitly: ring, seam, other ring (or the
apex on the axis), seam back. Before, it depended on edge order, and
after 81c85b5 the pulley's last pieces no longer merged.
- The read-back check moved to the whole file. If the merged file reads
with warnings and the unmerged one does not, the unmerged one is
written.
Results: 48 has 12 faces (Fusion 12), 54 has 12 (Fusion 12). Oracle
results are unchanged (73 PASS) and the STEP corpus passes 76/76. New
test: a plate with a hole glued to its mirror exports 8 faces, all
planes and cylinders, and round-trips.

Fold: the bend line (a sketch line), an optional stationary side, Bend Line Position
(centerline, start, end, outside mould line), angle (on the canvas), bend radius (default from
the rule) and flip; live preview and Edit Feature (folds made from two points keep them). Its
own icon; listed after Hem on the SHEET METAL tab and in the timeline.
Configurations: Add Column lists parameters and features to pick, Add Row names the new row
Configuration<N> when no name is typed, bare numbers show with their parameter's unit, the row
name comes before its Activate button, and Enter commits a cell instead of closing the panel.
Motion Study: steps default to the engine's 100, the key's value row is "Value" and Enter there
commits the key (OK makes the study).
Scenarios s22 (fold, flat pattern, DXF; the expected volume is the folded sheet's, the bend
keeping the neutral layer), s23 (configurations) and s24 (motion study) now run.
