A Sketch Palette toggle (sketch.options show_construction) that hides construction geometry from drawing and picking; saved with the sketch's view options under format 17.

A coincident face is pushed apart only when the space it moves through holds nothing that changes the result; otherwise the boolean falls through to the exact strategies.

Loading a design (from a worker's start or restart to its first output) gets 300 s; each action keeps 90 s. oracle/41-tube-radial-holes (about 23 s here) timed out loading on a loaded CI runner, and reloads after a hung action were charged to the next action.

Follow-up to #718: a face place snaps only to sketch points that are shown, and the face under the cursor is looked up once per pick.

Sketch Move gets a toolbar placement in Sketch > Modify and a Move/Copy tool window with X and Y distances, an angle, an optional centre point and a Create Copy flag, replacing the context-menu route that ran the command with no parameters.
Completes the Japanese catalog (all commands, panels, dialogs and preferences) and routes the remaining hard-coded UI labels through the translation lookup. English stays the default.
The feature history can sit in a panel on the left, with folders that hold one unbroken run of features, drag and drop as one undo step, and a resizable divider. Timeline folders save under format 17.
A sketch's link to a projected edge now keeps the edge's persistent name and finds it by that name when the body changes, instead of taking whichever edge ends up nearest its point.
`SolveApp::start` now honours a command's enabled flag, so shortcuts, the command palette and the control channel can't start a disabled command, and Move is disabled while a sketch is open.
A cut or an intersection between prisms (a plate and the tools through it) is now decided in 2D before either operand is meshed. A body's size and volume are measured once, a placement reads its orientation from its matrix, the evaluation cache is bounded to 64 MiB, and STEP import copies fewer shells. Hole plates evaluate 20-30% faster with less memory, and models are unchanged.

Convert to Sheet Metal now takes a solid or a shelled body by its bend edges (`bends`): the faces reached from the fixed face across those edges become the sheet, keeping the part's envelope, with the flat pattern by the rule's K-factor and radius. Other edges between sheet faces are cut open. The result works with edge flanges, cuts, Unfold/Refold, the flat pattern and DXF. A conversion without `bends` is the plate conversion as before. The optional `bends` field is noted under format 17. Fixes#647.

The Box, Cylinder, Sphere, Torus and Coil dialogs now start their sizes in the design's units with the unit written out ("20 mm", "20 in"), like the other dialogs. OK makes the same sizes as before. Fixes#630.

A Single hole picked on or near a sketch point that lies on the face (a circle's centre) now goes to that point, as a Multiple pick does. Picks away from sketch points, or near one that isn't on the face under the cursor, stay where they were clicked. Fixes#657.

Dragging a text outline now moves the whole editable text, and Move/Copy shifts or rotates it as one piece (a copy stays independently editable). Content, font, height and outline identities are kept; a drag is one undo step and Esc restores the start.
Sheet-metal cut-outs and base flange outlines drawn with ellipses, splines or text stay exact curves in the flat pattern and the unfolded body; the folded body follows them with tangent arcs within 0.001 mm (#659).
Adds render.backends, a metadata-only command that lists the render backends, their executors and profiles, with strict request resolution in the render crate (docs/render-backends.md).
An edge flange picked on an edge that cut-outs have partly removed is built along what is left of that edge (the stretch nearest the pick), so each side of a notch can get its own flange.
0.8.0 shipped format 16. Lineage names of a piece qualified by the faces around it, and sheet face names of a rim (rim.<edge>) or a bend end (rim.bend0/1), now come under format 17. Format 16 designs need no transformation, and the version stamp makes 0.8.0 ask for an update.

Home, Fit, the orbit pivot and the scene's depth range counted sketches the view doesn't draw (ones used by an extrude or revolve, ones in hidden components), so after a body moved away from its sketch Home framed the empty spot it came from. They now use the world-space bounds of what is shown now (view::visible_bounds / view::sketch_drawn, viewport::view_bounds). The pick-box cache holds its world state instead of its address. A middle-button double-click goes Home in every preset (Preferences › Navigation: Home, Fit or Off).
Fixes#689

As soon as a pick settles the dimension (one line, circle or arc, or the second point or line of a distance or angle), its value box takes the keyboard with the measured value selected. The text follows the cursor while typing and Enter places it there (or in its default place), as one undo step. A click before typing pins the text and keeps the box focused, a click on another entity makes a distance or angle, Tab hands back to placing first, Esc cancels. Letters go into the box, not to tool shortcuts.

Sheet metal rims and bend ends attach by name (<panel>:rim.<edge>, <flange>:rim.bend0/1), as do face profiles from sheet faces. A plain or counterbored Hole square to a panel is machined into the flat pattern. Boss, Lip, Rest and Snap Fit keep the body's history and name their own faces. Hole tools name their faces by the part they cut, and pattern copies as copies. A pattern's repeated fillets keep the body's history. Loft sides are named by their section curves. A piece Offset Face moved off its face's plane attaches by its own qualified name. Sides of a profile grown to overlap a flush body keep their sketch line's name, so walls a Join merged take a sketch (#681). Face sketch 75% -> 90%, offset plane 75% -> 90%, press-pull/extrude 64% -> 85% in the action matrix; baseline blessed.

The `pi` story of examples/demo/enclosure_ui_mcp.py keeps the 0.6 flow and adds the rim
rounded in one pick (a tangent chain), "Pi 4" engraved in the floor in DejaVu Sans Bold, and a
PETG material defined in the design, with its mass in Properties, before the height change.
The 0.6 story stays as `pi-0.6` (it built demo/pi-case). The center rectangle now comes from
the Rectangle drop-down. The finished case is in the action matrix corpus as
demo/pi-case-0.8.
docs/screenshots/demo-0.8.gif (9.3 MB) and demo-0.8.mp4 (9.9 MB) replace the 0.6 files: 41 s

Joining ribs flush with a lid's window left a zero-thickness slit far from the rib (the planar fallback glued back only one of the faces its pieces shared) and displaced the tool on the other joins. Gluing now joins every shared face pair, coincident-face separation checks there is material behind a pushed face for every join, and any join or cut that needed a retry must be closed, keep volume monotonic and leave the part unchanged outside the tool's box, or it is refused with an error. Feature command replies carry the feature's warning.

Select Other keeps at most 20 rows per kind, nearest first, so a dense spot (a modelled thread, an imported mesh) no longer lists thousands of rows. The title shows how many were under the cursor in all, and ui.selectOther reports it as total.
component.insert_design adds a component holding another design's solid bodies, linked to its file (stored relative to the assembly once saved). component.update_links reads the linked designs again, component.break_link keeps the bodies and forgets the file, and component.links lists them. Links are saved under format 16; an older build keeps the bodies and drops the link.
Fixes#533
An edge flange whose edge ends at an inside corner of the base now trims only the strip under its own edge, so legs and stems past that corner stay. Where the bend ends beside more of the base, the rule's bend relief (relief_width, relief_depth) is cut into the base, or a note says why it was left out.

MCP execute accepts verbose: false too, using the same compact reply as batch (#599), and the MCP docs gain a section on compact replies.

A flat face that no construction certificate names on its own now attaches by its exact history name (a new lineage face certificate): cut walls and floors, chamfer faces, each pattern or mirror copy, side walls a Join merged, and the pieces a later feature split a face into. Construction certificates still come first; a seed keeps its certificate when it is patterned. Two flush extrudes of one outline joined end to end keep their exact history in the prism boolean. Face sketch 52% -> 71%, offset plane 52% -> 71%, press-pull/extrude from face 41% -> 60% in the action matrix; baseline blessed.

New view.apply command restores a named view, a standard view or any camera (view state, not an undo step); the desktop viewport follows it and the browser's Restore uses it. The MCP screenshot tool takes a named view or a camera. Un-ignores the #528 regression test. Fixes#528.

The Flatpak app id, desktop/metainfo/MIME file names, icon name and the window's Wayland app_id / X11 class are now ai.storyteller.solidcraft, the id the ArtCraft launcher expects.
Existing Flatpak installs move over: the Pages repo marks app/ai.storyteller.solvecraft end-of-life with a rebase to the new id, so flatpak update offers the switch and Flatpak carries ~/.var/app along. A new install next to the old one copies settings and autosaves on first launch through a read-only grant on the old data folder. The metainfo declares <replaces>/<provides>, the desktop entry X-Flatpak-RenamedFrom, and AppImages drop the menu entry an older AppImage installed. deb/rpm upgrades remove the old-named files.

A save with cache: true also stores a small bounded PNG thumbnail (240 × 150, at most 256 KiB, keyed to the exact document) made from cached meshes only. Home uses it when its local picture is missing, without rebuilding the design; ordinary saves and downloads still omit it. Closes#303.

A design can define its own physical materials (material.create, material.edit, material.delete): name, density and an optional look. They work everywhere built-in materials do: assignment, mass properties, colours and configuration cells. Stored in user_materials, an additive field under format 16. Un-ignores the #554 regression test. Fixes#532.

An edge flange on another flange's far edge (a return) runs along that edge from end to end, following the parent's closed or cut-back corner, and returns of one feature close toward each other at convex base corners, mitred the rule's gap apart. Bends stop square where the mitre allows. Fixes#593.

The bend table, flat pattern and DXF list a bend only where its centre line has material: a bend that cut-outs (or pockets that together go through the sheet) shorten keeps what is left, and one they split gets a row per piece, all with the bend's number.

MCP batch takes verbose: false for compact replies: feature steps leave out the full body list and sketch steps the ids they repeat outside created. Feature replies now also list changed_bodies and removed_bodies next to created_bodies, so a compact reply still shows every effect of a step. Un-ignores the #530 regression test. Fixes#530.

A Box cut, or a Cylinder cut whose axis is the sheet's normal, machines a sheet metal body like the extrude cut of its footprint: through the sheet it's a cut-out (a cylinder an exact round one in the flat pattern and DXF), part way it's a pocket. Primitives at other angles or across a bend are still refused. Un-ignores the #541 regression test. Fixes#541.

Inscribed, circumscribed and edge polygon tools preview their actual outline (side count and orientation) while drawing, with the current line type, instead of only the support circle. Preview work is bounded. Fixes#520.

sheet.flat_pattern reports every cut-out exactly in a new cutout_shapes list, parallel to cutouts: a round hole as a circle, other cut-outs as their lines, arcs and (for other curves) polylines. Pockets get the same. The DXF writer and the JSON share one circle test. Un-ignores the #542 regression test. Fixes#542.

A scheduled/manual CI job scans locked dependencies for advisories, bans and unknown sources with cargo-deny 0.20.2 (never on pull requests, contents: read, no secrets). The first scan flagged quick-xml 0.38.4 (RUSTSEC-2026-0194/0195), so the workspace moves to quick-xml 0.41. Fixes#468.
