Five reviewers (PDF, snap, commands, otrack/help, printing) covered the
eight issue-fix commits; every blocker and major is fixed here.
Printing (#1261 follow-up):
- printto params now quote the printer name and pad the empty driver/
port slots handlers substitute ("Microsoft Print to PDF" was split
into three arguments and the job silently lost).
- Level-2 enumeration also merges when the level-4 list omits the
configured default, not only when it is empty; a level-2 error no
longer discards the default-printer merge.
- The printer list loads in a background task instead of blocking the
UI thread (level-2 queries can wait out RPC timeouts).
- CTB registration: collisions keep the existing file but now say so,
and only container-parsed tables are registered (the permissive
zlib heuristic stays session-only so junk cannot persist).
Snapping (#1030/#1319 follow-up):
- Edge-wire key_vertices gain NaN separators: junctions between
unrelated mesh edges no longer fabricate phantom midpoints.
- The wire cap counts segments (not separator points) and decimates
instead of dropping, so dense meshes keep partial endpoint coverage
instead of losing snap entirely.
- f64 endpoint recovery is a one-shot per-wire map instead of an
O(points x geoms) rescan on every mouse move.
Commands (#1082 class): the same typed-value-on-web bug also hit
CYLINDER/BOX/WEDGE/CONE/PYRAMID heights, HELIX final height (wrong
value, not just dropped), and SWEEP reference/new lengths — all now
commit as text at exactly those steps, each pinned by a regression
test that fails without the override (plus the missing native-route
twin for EXTRUDE).
PDF (#702 follow-up): heavy CTB pens bypass the Form XObject (their
half-width exceeds the /BBox SDF margin and was flat-chopped), CTM
scale entries round to 4 significant digits (0.01 quantized small
text by ~1%), degenerate quads skip emission, the atlas snapshot is
taken once per export instead of per text entity, and the rounding
comments no longer conflate page points with glyph-plane units.
OTRACK (#1313 follow-up): the guide's polar quantization diverges
from the snapper's drafting-gated polar during window-corner drags —
documented; an orphaned grid-step doc block is reunited with its
function.
Volume entities (Solid3D/Region/Body/Surface, OBJ-imported and SubD
meshes, polyface meshes) render through the mesh pipeline and their
wire path was deliberately empty, so the snapper had no candidates:
END/MID/NEA/PER/INT never fired on them — only Insertion at the
reference point. Each volume entity now contributes one interaction-
only edge wire (B-rep edge chains where the entity stores them, LOD-0
triangle edges otherwise, 100k-point cap), invisible to rendering and
PDF export, riding the normal wire set so the interaction index,
tiers, and 2D-wins priority apply unchanged. The SubD key_vertices
list no longer fabricates floating midpoints. Scene-level test drives
the exact OBJ-import path (Solid3D + meshes cache) through the real
snapper; INSERT-nested solids remain scoped out (block-cache path has
no mesh cache yet).
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.
The shaded surface of a curved solid was visibly coarser than its own
wireframe: the wire ran along the true rim while the facets cut inside it.
Two things were wrong, and only one was the tolerance.
`facet_res` is a resolution multiplier — the same one `scale_lod` divides the
fallback sampler's chord fraction by — and the kernel path was using it as a
sag in world units. At the default that asks for a whole unit of departure, so
nothing smaller than a metre subdivided at all and a face was only ever as
round as its own boundary. It is a fraction of each surface's own radius now,
which carries no assumption about the drawing's units.
And it is the *edges'* fraction, shared from `EDGE_CHORD_FRAC` rather than
copied. Those edges are drawn over these faces; sampling the two differently
is what put the wire across a facet instead of along its corners. `facet_res`
is deliberately not applied either, since the edges it must line up with are
built once at highest detail and never scaled.
A torus is measured by its tube rather than its ring — the tube is the tighter
bend, and sampling to the ring leaves the section a hexagon.
The primitive-volume test claimed a mesh can never read over its true size.
That holds for a convex solid, where every chord lies inside; a torus is not
one, and across the inside of its tube the chords fall outside the material.
It passed before only because the sampling was too coarse to show it.

Every 3-D solid OCS makes or opens now goes through cadkernel, which holds
analytic surfaces — a cylinder is a cylinder record, not a spline that looks
like one. That is what lets a solid built here be written back out as exact
ACIS instead of a triangulation, and a facetted export is a one-way door: the
next application to open the file would have no way back to the circle.
The Model tab's seven primitives, the Design-group booleans, 3DROTATE,
3DMIRROR, 3DALIGN, SLICE, SECTION, POLYSOLID and PYRAMID all come from the
kernel now, and `scene.solid_models` holds a `Body`. A mirrored solid needed
its own care before; the kernel reverses the loops on the way through, so it
comes back the right way out rather than lighting black.
EXTRUDE and REVOLVE sweep the profile `entities::curve` already defines, so a
circle, an arc-bulged polyline and a closed spline arrive as the same thing.
A circle extrudes into four cylinder patches rather than a run of chords, and
a profile turned about an axis becomes a cone, a sphere or a torus. A spline
profile has no analytic side wall and is refused rather than approximated.
ACIS goes both ways through the codec's own bridge: `lift` to read and
`append` to write. That drops the 679-line truck conversion and the planar-
only exporter, and the tessellator keeps its bespoke sampler as a fallback for
whatever the kernel cannot yet express — reported rather than passed off as
whole, since a mesh missing a wall looks finished.
truck-shapeops is no longer used and is gone from the manifest. truck-modeling
stays for now: fourteen files use it as a 3-D NURBS evaluator, which the
kernel has no answer for yet, and SWEEP and LOFT have no kernel operation
behind them either.
The two `automation` test failures are unchanged from before this and are not
caused by it.

Now that geometry reaches the GPU/CPU as absolute coordinates via the
double-single relative-to-eye path, world_offset is always [0,0,0]. Strip
the parameter that was threaded through the whole tessellation / block-
expansion / fallback / camera-decode chain and the ExpandCtx field that
carried it — ~340 references across 20 files, all subtracting zero.
- truck_tess: to_local / to_local_low / tessellate_* drop the offset arg;
to_local is now a pure double-single split.
- tessellate: offset_to_ds → points_to_ds (pure DS split); tessellate(),
tessellate_entity(), fallback_geometry(), solid_wire_fallback(),
entity_aabb(), expand_insert(), expand_block_meshes(), the dimension
helpers (vec3_local, dimension_snap_pts, …), text_support, leader,
multileader, image_model, xclip and camera_from_view all lose the param.
- block_cache: ExpandCtx loses its world_offset field.
- Remove the now-dead offset_snap_pts and the unused set_grid_snap.
Behaviour is unchanged (the offset was zero everywhere); the compiler
verifies every call site.

3D solid / surface meshes were the last single-f32 path. truck's mesh
tessellation now returns a paired verts_low residual (TruckTessResult::Mesh,
polygon_to_result), MeshModel/MeshLodSet carry it, the model-space offset
and block-instance transforms reconstruct the f64 position and re-split it
after subtracting world_offset, MeshVertex gains position_low (location 3),
and mesh.wgsl reconstructs the eye-relative position. Native SAT / ACIS /
OBJ mesh paths default to a zero residual (no regression — they were never
sub-f32 precise).
With this every world-space pipeline (wire, hatch, image, face3d, mesh)
is full double-single relative-to-eye; large-coordinate jitter is gone.

Vertices now carry the low residual alongside the high half all the way
to the GPU: tessellation splits the offset-relative f64 coordinate into
(high, low) f32 (TruckTessResult::Lines/Point, the Text path, Lines /
SegmentedLines, and the block-cache instance transform), WireModel and
the block batch carry a paired points_low buffer, WireInstance gains
pos_a_low/pos_b_low (locations 10/11), and wire.wgsl reconstructs
rel = (pos_high - eye_high) + (pos_low - eye_low).
This is the piece the camera-only RTE was missing: at UTM-scale
coordinates the single-f32 vertex was quantized to ~0.5 m, so it snapped
each time the eye crossed an f32 boundary on pan. With the low half the
position is exact and the cross-drawing-paste jitter is gone.

First step toward a web build: the library now compiles for
wasm32-unknown-unknown with --no-default-features.
- Add a `solid3d` feature (default on) gating truck-meshalgo /
truck-shapeops / lzma-sys. These pull vtkio → xz2 → lzma-sys (C),
which cannot cross-compile to wasm. Without the feature the 3-D
solid path (tessellation, booleans, ACIS import) becomes no-ops;
2-D CAD is unaffected. Native builds keep the feature by default.
- Move native-only crates (ureq, open) to non-wasm target deps and
add cfg shims: update-check is a no-op on wasm, and a new `sys`
module provides open_url + handle_path (rfd FileHandle → PathBuf;
synthesizes a name-based path on the web).
Native build + all 75 tests unchanged. Browser runtime wiring
(entry point, trunk, real file I/O) is a follow-up.

Match the `*_model` naming of the sibling render models (wire_model,
hatch_model, mesh_model, image_model). Also realign the related Scene
API for consistency: model_solids → solid_models, add_model_solid →
add_solid_model, register_model_solid → register_solid_model.
No behavior change; build and tests are green.
