New ConstraintKind variants — Concentric, CenterPoint, Colinear, Midpoint,
Fixed, PointOnCurve, EqualDistance, Symmetric — each built entirely from
existing ocs_gcs (FreeCAD planegcs) primitives, no new solver math needed.
build_constraint now returns Vec<Rc<dyn Constraint>> instead of
Option<Rc<...>>, generalizing the old Coincident-only "needs a second
system-level constraint" special case to every kind that needs one.
Wired into the ribbon (7 new buttons), a new point+pre-selected-entity
command for CenterPoint/Midpoint/PointOnCurve, a new 4-point command for
EqualDistance, and the existing DWG-native class-name mapping (all 8 reuse
the same generic "plain Geometrical node" path already built for
Coincident/Horizontal/etc.). Deliberately not modeled: Normal and
EqualCurvature, which for this app's Line/Circle-only entity model would
just be Perpendicular and Equal wearing different DWG class names.
Also makes DWG-native constraint persistence opt-in (Options > General,
off by default) rather than unconditional: a scope that doesn't yet have
the native graph is only given one when the setting is on, but a scope
that already has one — from an earlier save, or a file that came from
real AutoCAD — keeps getting it resynced regardless of the setting, so
toggling it off never freezes a stale graph in place.

Named parameters (docs/named_parameters_design.md, stages 3-4):
- ParameterTable (src/scene/named_parameters.rs): a document-wide table of
named formulas, each resolved through a shared expression evaluator with
cross-parameter references, cycle detection, and division-by-zero/parse
error reporting. SketchConstraint::driving_param becomes DrivingValue
(Literal | Named) instead of a bare f64, resolved at solve time by
sketch_solve::build_constraint via Scene::named_parameters.
- Persistence (src/scene/named_parameters_persist.rs): same lazy XRecord
model sketch_persist.rs already established, synced around open/save.
Bumps the sketch-constraint XRecord's own format version (1 -> 2) since
DrivingValue's shape doesn't line up with a version-1 blob's bytes.
- PARAMETERS command and its editor (src/ui/window/named_parameters.rs):
add/remove/edit rows, live validation, duplicate-name detection: Apply
defines the table and re-solves every constraint scope with a
named-parameter-driven constraint (command_driver.rs). Distance/Angle
constraint prompts (modules/draw/constrain/value.rs) now accept either a
literal or an existing parameter's name, mirroring how the constraint's
own value prompt already worked.
- Undo scope-down carried over from this project's own established pattern
(constraint-system stage 9): the geometry an Apply moves is one undo
step, but the parameter table edit itself has no undo entry yet — a
documented follow-up, not a silent gap.
UI scale setting (src/app/settings.rs, app/mod.rs, ui/window/options.rs):
a whole-interface scale percentage (50-200%), wired directly into iced's
own per-window scale_factor hook rather than per-panel font-size
plumbing, so it applies immediately to every panel, dialog, and the
ribbon at once. Persisted alongside the existing lineweight-display-scale
setting.
OPTIONS/OP command dispatch (app/commands/view.rs, app/commands/mod.rs):
OPTIONS was registered for autocomplete but had no dispatch arm — the
Start-tab welcome screen's own button was the only way to reach it.
Found live-testing the UI-scale setting, unrelated to that feature
itself. "OP" is AutoCAD's own short alias.
help/: a new self-contained static user-help manual (manual.md as the
authored source, tools/build_help.py splits it into the committed static
HTML pages plus search index) — not yet wired into the application.
64 new/updated tests across the named-parameters and constraint-prompt
changes.

Ports FreeCAD's planegcs 2D geometric constraint solver to Rust as a new
crates/ocs_gcs workspace member, and wires it into the document/scene model
as a persistent SketchConstraintSet: Coincident, Horizontal/Vertical,
Parallel/Perpendicular, Equal, Tangent, Distance, Angle and Radius
constraints that re-solve live (including mid-drag, not just on release),
render glyphs and a DOF badge, flag conflicts with a one-click resolver
pill, and round-trip through save/load via an XRecord blob.
Also includes docs/command_reference.md (a statically generated reference
of every registered command and its prompt sequence) and
docs/named_parameters_design.md + docs/backlog.md, which hand off the next
queued feature (a named-parameter/expression table) and consolidate every
deliberate scope-down and open gap found along the way, so a fresh session
has a complete starting point.

- Implement `TABLEDIT` command supporting viewport point-picking on cell interiors
- Support overlapping table hit testing with selection cycling and top-table resolution
- Support `/n` and `\n` multiline paragraph breaks (`\P`) in table cell text editing
- Unify text input modes via `InputKind` (`Point`, `SingleToken`, `FreeText`) on `CadCommand`
- Migrate 15+ commands across annotate, draw, insert, layout, and view modules
- Preserve text casing, literal spaces, and bypass arithmetic eval during FreeText input
- Add dedicated `tabledit_tests` and `free_text_entry_tests` test suites
Sync current main and companion codec changes before preserving unsupported frame rows, rendering in the entity plane, and sharing final layout metrics with placement preview.
INSERT enumerated all block names in a single prompt string, causing unbounded overlay growth and full-screen occlusion in drawings with many blocks. Replace prompt enumeration with a ranked, incrementally filtered suggestion model: BlockPicker maintains precomputed lower/upper caches and usage ranks (MRU/frequency), filters via O(n) substring scan and partial sorting (select_nth_unstable) to O(k), bounded to CLIPROMPTLINES.
Introduce CLIPROMPTLINES (Integer 0-50, Registry, default 3) for the number of temporary prompt lines above the command window; persist in UserSettings, expose via SETVAR and direct entry, enforce in CommandLine::view. Suggestion count is in direct relation to CLIPROMPTLINES (limit = clip, capped to 50).
Make search live without requiring Enter: add CadCommand::on_live_input, implement for INSERT/MINSERT via picker.set_needle, and wire to command-line input paths (Message::CommandInput, on_command_append_char, on_command_backspace). Updates use upper/lower caches and partial sort for <0.2ms per keystroke on 10k blocks, with debounced block-usage persistence (MRU cap 20, freq cap 200) to avoid I/O thrash. Correct tri_count test helper to use display_from_solid.
Implement the AutoCAD compatible HATCHTOBACK (HB) command and enhance the interactive DRAWORDER command pipeline with comprehensive verb selection and viewport entity picking.
Key implementations and architectural details:
1. HATCHTOBACK command execution
* Isolates entities belonging to the active layout block record or global space.
* Filters out entities residing on locked layers using an efficient hash set lookup.
* Records targeted delta undo operations on SortEntitiesTable objects (~100 bytes) rather than snapshotting full document structures.
* Performs granular draw depth cache invalidation via Scene::invalidate_draw_depth, preserving existing geometry tessellations and spatial indices.
* Emits localized user notifications when no qualifying hatch entities are found.
2. Interactive DrawOrderCommand state machine
* Supports preselected entities as well as interactive on demand selection gathering.
* Implements subverb selection supporting single character shortcuts (A for Above, U for Under, F for Front, B for Back) and case insensitive keyword parsing.
* Enables interactive reference object picking directly in the viewport via needs_entity_pick and on_entity_pick callbacks.
* Supports hexadecimal handle specification directly from the command line interface.
3. Ecosystem and system integration
* Bumps DEFAULT_ALIASES_VERSION from 2 to 3 to register the HB alias while preserving existing user overrides.
* Integrates HATCHTOBACK and HB into dynamic autocomplete registries.
* Adds localized message strings across all 20 Fluent translation catalogs.
* Corrects hatch boundary serialization flags to ensure outermost boundary rings consistently carry the external attribute.
