Preview the current unsaved block in a disposable drawing with independent history. Keep normal Draw tools available, append Close Test Block, and return to the original editor without saving. Guard persistence paths and handle refresh and parent-close lifecycle by stable document identity.
Conflicts with #1573: the locale files and the catalog take both PRs'
entries (one "Insertion Point" mapping kept); the Home and Insert Block
panels take #1574's layout with #1573's Insert Block gallery.
Attribute Definition dialog and Edit Attribute Definition dialog, -ATTDEF
with the reference prompts and modes (AFLAGS), tag shown in the drawing,
justification-aware grips, reworked Properties with validation, Home Block
slide-out and Insert Block Definition panel, and the codec patch for
ATTDEF DXF output and the R2013+ solid wire cache.

Rebuild the Blocks palette with Current Drawing / Recent / Favorites /
Libraries tabs, wildcard filter, six views, insertion options, click and
drop insertion and a block context menu. INSERT opens the palette, the
new -INSERT runs on the command line, the ribbon Insert button becomes a
block gallery, and BLOCKMRULIST, BLOCKREDEFINEMODE, BLOCKNAVIGATE,
BLOCKSTATE, EXPLMODE and INSNAME are added.

Arcs are now full constraint participants (center/radius via the existing
Circle-shaped solver path, plus real endpoints kept consistent by arc-rules
CurveValue constraints); adds Diameter/DistanceX/DistanceY/ArcLength/Normal
constraint kinds and initial Ellipse entity support (center-based
constraints only). DWG-native class mappings and gaps (ArcLength, Ellipse)
are grounded against real ObjectARX headers rather than guessed, so files
saved with DWG-native constraints stay honest about what AutoCAD can
actually represent.
Also fixes a case-sensitivity bug where a lowercase named-parameter
reference typed at a dimensional constraint's value prompt was rejected
(the command line uppercases SingleToken input before the parameter-name
lookup), and adds a "Used by" column to the Named Parameters panel.

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.

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.

The status-bar units button wrote INSUNITS, which nothing on screen reads.
INSUNITS only tells the drawing how to scale content arriving from
elsewhere, so picking a unit relabelled the drawing and changed nothing
visible — the selector looked broken because the variable it moved was
invisible.
Point the button at LUNITS instead, the setting that decides how every
coordinate and distance is written, and give the three questions the word
"units" runs together a place each:
- The button offers the five length formats, each shown beside a sample of
itself, so Engineering and Architectural are told apart by sight.
- UNITS / DDUNITS opens a real dialog: length and angle format and
precision, the direction angle zero points, whether positive angles run
clockwise, and the insertion unit. Its sample comes from the same
formatters the drawing uses, so it cannot drift from the readout.
- DWGUNITS converts. Model geometry, viewport framing, the header's length
defaults and each dimension style's scale all move together in one undo
step; paper space is left alone, since the sheet is still the same sheet.
Locked layers are converted too — a half-converted drawing would be at
two scales at once.
The coordinate readout formatted at four decimal places whatever the
drawing asked for; it now goes through the same format_length the
properties panel uses. That made the angle formats reachable in turn, so
degrees-minutes-seconds now carries the d/'/" marks that say which
convention it is, and surveyor's units are written at all.
Typed input is still plain decimal: a length the readout writes as
5'-6 1/2" cannot yet be typed back. ANGBASE and ANGDIR are stored but not
yet applied to displayed directions.

Only Previous and Last were on offer, so Window, Crossing, Fence, the two
polygons and All could not be reached at all -- and with no keyboard to
type them into, the buttons were the only way in.
Window and Crossing fix the sense of the next box. Dragging derives that
from the direction the corner travels and would overwrite it the moment
the corner moved, so the derivation stands down while a keyword holds it.
Add and Remove decide what a pick does for the rest of the round: Remove
subtracts the way Shift already does, rather than through PICKADD, which
decides whether a pick *replaces* the set and so would have wiped
everything gathered so far. Both are dropped when the next command
starts, since neither outlives the selection that asked for them.
Fence and the polygons are picked point by point, which TRIM and EXTEND
already ask for. That gesture -- the points, the rubber-banded dashed
preview, whether the path closes -- moves into one place both bind to,
and the two preview builders duplicated in trim.rs go with it.
A fence is not the polygon test with crossing set: that closes the point
list and counts whatever lies inside, so a line drawn past a row of
objects would take everything behind it too. It gets a hit test that only
counts a real intersection, and skips the area-based geometry entirely.
The lasso gathered its hits from wires, hatches, block hatches, meshes and
block meshes inline; the new modes need the same list, and a second copy
would drift. Both now come through `Scene::path_hit_handles`.
Closes#596

Arc ribbon default + icon + dropdown order set to 3-Point. New ARC_CONT: tangent-continuing arc from the last line/arc endpoint, pick end only; Ctrl flips direction. Exit anchor recorded on commit (disambiguated by last pick) so chaining continues from the correct end.

The ABOUT command and its version-reporting window already exist, but
the ToolDef sat dead-code in the draw module with no ribbon entry, so
the only way in was typing ABOUT. Move it to the manage module and give
it an Application group on the Manage tab, as a discoverable fallback
for version diagnostics.

Change CadModule::ribbon_groups() from -> Vec<RibbonGroup> to -> &[RibbonGroup],
backed by a per-module OnceLock cache. The ribbon group tree is static data
(&'static str, Copy enums) that was being fully reconstructed — Vecs, String
clones, enum discriminants — on every call, including all three per-frame
call sites (view(), dropdown_overlay(), style_combo_overlay()).
- 7 built-in modules + 2 plugin templates cache via function-local OnceLock.
Safe because each is a unit struct with exactly one instance per process
(plugins run in isolated child processes; see PluginProcess::spawn()).
- SharedCadModule avoids the static pattern entirely, storing groups in an
instance field (owned.rs).
- IPC runner converts &RibbonGroup -> OwnedRibbonGroup directly via new
From<&T> impls, avoiding an intermediate clone.
- render_small/render_large and the two make_tool_row closures now borrow
(&RibbonItem, &[ToolDef]) instead of taking ownership, so the view loop
doesn't need to clone items to satisfy the old by-value signatures.
- Various match-ergonomics deref fixes (*id, *default, *icon, etc.) from
the &RibbonItem pattern change.
Turn the ribbon Clipboard "Paste" button into a dropdown:
- Paste — existing pick-a-point paste.
- Paste to Original Coordinates — drops the clipboard at its source
coordinates with no prompt.
- Paste as Block — wraps the clipboard contents in a new block definition
and starts an interactive insert (prompts for the drop point, with the
geometry rubber-banding under the cursor).
Also fixes two bugs the new commands exposed:
- entities_centroid summed the NaN separator points wire models carry,
so the paste base point came out NaN; non-finite points are now
skipped. A NaN base previously froze block tessellation outright.
- PASTEORIG added clipboard entities with their original handles
(duplicates on same-document paste); it now goes through
add_entity_clone and merges referenced records like the other pastes.

The Home tab was already titled "Draw"; rename the module to match:
folder modules/home → modules/draw, HomeModule → DrawModule, id "home"
→ "draw". The inner draw/ command folder is kept (modules::draw::draw).
Update build.rs PRIORITY ("home" → "draw") so the tab returns to the
front of the ribbon; registry.rs regenerates accordingly.
