- 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
Extract the push-undo → per-handle → invalidate → dirty → refresh
contract into one helper on OpenCADStudio. The helper is the single
source of truth for property-op side effects, so future property
handlers can't forget the cache invalidation or the panel refresh.
Note: MATCHPROP now no-ops when the destination selection is empty
(previously it marked the tab dirty and refreshed the panel). This is
a minor correctness improvement; restore the old behaviour with a
2-line guard at the MATCHPROP call site if desired.

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.
Enable in-place editing of inherited properties in the Properties panel:
- Transparency: Switch to PropValue::EditChoice with ByLayer and ByBlock presets to allow direct typing of any numeric percentage value (0..90%) without combo_box autocomplete interference.
- Select-all-on-click: Integrate EditChoice text inputs into build_field_key_map with dedicated widget IDs, preserving click-to-select-all across editable fields.
- Material: Provide bounded preset choices (ByLayer, ByBlock, Global, and active custom material) to avoid scanning large drawing dictionaries.
- Plot style: Implement mode-aware behavior with interactive Choice in STB mode and ReadOnlyWithTooltip in CTB mode.
- Read-only tooltips: Introduce PropValue::ReadOnlyWithTooltip to provide contextual explanations for locked fields while preserving mouse text selection and clipboard copying.
- Dropdown alignment & unified borders: Fix EditChoice internal input/caret background clipping so the container's 1px neutral/active border surrounds the entire control identically to Lineweight and text inputs.
- Document defaults & aggregation: Synchronize document header defaults when editing with No selection, and aggregate heterogeneous multi-selections (*VARIES*).
The \\\x01attr\\x01…\ sentinel-prefixed string was used to tell geometry
fields (\&'static str\ names) apart from block attribute rows (runtime
tags) in \ctive_field\ and \dit_buf\. Replace it with a \FieldKey\
enum (\Geom(&'static str)\ / \Attr(String)\), so the two namespaces can't
collide by construction: \dit_buf\ is now \HashMap<FieldKey, String>\,
\ctive_field\ is \Option<FieldKey>\, and the sentinel decoding in
\ctive_key_id\ is replaced by \FieldKey::widget_id\.
While touching the key plumbing, replace \prop_field_key_for_id\'s
per-event scan of every section x prop (with a \String\ format per
candidate) with an O(1) precomputed \HashMap<iced::widget::Id, FieldKey>\
(\ ield_key_by_id\), built once in \
efresh_properties\ alongside the
sections — and rebuilt after \make_sections_read_only\ so rows demoted
to read-only stop mapping. \PropSyncActive\ now does a single map lookup
per event.
Clicking an editable property value field now selects its entire value instead
of only placing the caret, so typing immediately replaces it. The click is
observed through a global left-press subscription (PropPointerPressed); a focus
sweep reports which widget took focus and PropSyncActive maps it back to the
active property row, then issues a select-all operation only when focus landed
on a different field.
The active row stays highlighted while its text input holds keyboard focus and
clears when focus moves elsewhere.
