Frames: follow the drawing state, DWF/DGN frames, image frame profile, frame-only picking
The codec [patch] to ramox81/cadcodec@ea5edaa is dropped: that commit landed as opencadcodec#63 and main already pins ad16215, which contains it.
An image's transparency flag decides whether transparent pixels show what
is behind the image or draw in their stored colour: the image pass and PDF
plots now follow it (it was ignored, so every PNG alpha showed through).
TRANSPARENCY selects images and asks for the mode, defaulting to the first
image's current one.

- The Frames list shows the drawing's frame state (hide / display and plot /
display but not plot / frames vary), follows commands, undo and document
switches, and lists the mixed state as a disabled item.
- DWFFRAME and DGNFRAME are frame variables of their own, kept in the header,
and FRAME sets them with the others.
- Out-of-range frame values say "Requires an integer between 0 and 2." and
ask again; a set value reports "Regenerating model.".
- IMAGEFRAME is stored in the image variables as bits (2 is written as 3) and
a drawing without them uses the profile value, which setting IMAGEFRAME
updates and the settings file keeps.
- Raster images, PDF underlays and wipeouts are picked on their frame only;
underlay snap geometry is never picked.

The branch added by #1498 repeated finish_dispatch's focus and dynamic-input sync; call it instead.

When a plugin command was dispatched, record_recent was called but
tabs[i].last_cmd was never set. Consequently, pressing Enter or Space on
an empty command line after running a plugin command failed to repeat it.
This records tabs[i].last_cmd on plugin dispatch and requests command-line
focus and dynamic input syncing when an interactive plugin command starts.
- PDFIMPORTIMAGEPATH names the image extraction folder: relative to the
PDF's folder (default "PDF Images"), absolute as given, "." for none.
- Every import of the session gets the next prefix (PDF_, PDF2_, PDF3_ ...),
also when the same file is imported again.

The codec and kernel repositories and crates are renamed opencadcodec and
opencadkernel. Inside OCS they are depended on under short keys, so code
reads `codec::`, `kernel::` and the new `graph::` (opencadgraph, the node
graph engine). File-format and protocol spellings stay as they were: the
ACIS product id `acadrust`, the ACADRUST_* switches and the plugin
version keys `acadrust_version` / `acadrust_source`.
A button left of MCP on the command line opens a translucent node graph
over the viewport, with a palette of object, input, math, logic, list,
text and geometry nodes added by click or drag. An object node owns
drawing entities and its rows are the Properties panel's own rows for
them: the single-object page is extracted from refresh_properties as
entity_property_sections, values use the control protocol's
property_json, and writes go through set_property_value with a property
target override, so the panel, MCP and the graph share one read/write
path. A list reaching an object row makes one entity per element. Each
graph action is one undo step; the canvas pans and zooms.

Attach External Reference dialog after XATTACH / ATTACH; ATTACH routes
drawings, PDFs and images; placement prompts and messages follow the
reference (presets, Corner/XYZ, nonzero check, existing definition reuse,
missing file, self-reference); name keeps the file's case; overlay and
path type at attach; one undo step for definition and INSERT; -XREF option
prompt and `?` table; XREF opens the palette; ER alias; xref Properties
rows; dependent symbols flagged and remapped and resolved content left out
of the saved file; dialog_ok automation action; localized labels.

Direct distance entry (#1429) turned every bare number at a point prompt
into a distance, so ROTATE's angle and the values automation types were
read as coordinates. The step reads the token first now — `feed_command`
reports whether it claimed it — and only an unclaimed one becomes a
distance. That also puts the token back on the unified step driver, which
owns the P / L selection keywords and the dimension-snap bookkeeping, and
stops `on_text_input` running twice for the same token. A tracking ray
carries its own base, so it no longer demands an anchor that the first
point of a command does not have yet.
Plugin command execution (#1425) re-implemented the command line inside
the plugin host: it dispatched families directly, skipping the teardown
that starts a command (grip edits, selection gestures, `last_point`, the
accepted snaps), and made every `CmdResult::Dispatch` in the application
skip plugin dispatch to avoid its own re-entrancy. A scripted line now
runs through `run_command_line`, with the trailing Enter left off while
the plugin streams the command, and the re-entrancy is handled by a flag
set for the length of the plugin's call. A pause parks the line's Enter
with the rest of its tokens instead of dropping it.
A font reference (#1432) tried the family lookup before the face-file
index, and that lookup ends in a prefix match a longer file name loses to
(`ISOCPEUI.TTF` would take `ISOCP`). The exact file answers first.

Follow-up to #1341:
- interactive UCS offers Face / OBject; bare UCS OBJECT starts an entity pick
- one UcsPickCommand serves both FACE and OBJECT
- ucs_from_normal calls the existing arbitrary-axis helper instead of a copy
- prompt catalogue key and en-US text follow the new option list

On Windows a plot with no printer chosen went to the PDF application's
bare "print" verb — whatever that application considered its default —
and a viewer without a "printto" verb (Edge, store readers) silently
dropped the printer the dialog had chosen. The dialog also never named the
system default, and a failed printer enumeration left only "Default" and
"PDF" with the reason written to a console nobody sees.
- The default printer is looked up by name (GetDefaultPrinterW) both for
the dialog's "System default printer (…)" entry and before every job.
- A pure route decision (plan_print_route) resolves "Default" to that
name and uses the PDF application only when it registered a "printto"
verb for .pdf (AssocQueryStringW); otherwise the job goes straight to
the spooler through the existing GDI path. The report says which:
"Sent to printer: NAME (direct print | via the PDF application)".
- list_printers reports the system's own error; the plot dialog shows it
under the printer row and the command line warns once. A desktop without
CUPS is an empty list, not an error.
- PRINTERS command: default printer, listed printers (or the error) and,
on Windows, the print route — a report to paste into an issue.
- Properties… on the Default entry opens that printer's preferences sheet.
- GDI path: the driver's dmSize is kept (its private data lives behind
it), the print raster is no longer memoised for the session, and a
spooled temporary PDF is removed.
Tests: route planning (named / blank / no default / printto or not), the
PRINTERS command; the two Windows-only GDI tests pass the resolved name.

- PSETUPIN / -PSETUPIN: with no arguments a file picker offers the chosen
drawing's named page setups in the Plot dialog; `PSETUPIN <file>` opens
the same chooser on that file; `PSETUPIN <file> *` or
`PSETUPIN <file> name,name` import straight away. Same-named setups are
replaced, the import is one undo step, and the report counts both.
- The Plot dialog's page-setup list gains "Import…": the chooser shows the
source drawing's setups with a tick each, All, Import and Cancel, and
selects the first imported setup afterwards. The source is read off the
UI thread with the same reader the editor uses for its own setups
(`scene::document_page_setups`), and handles that only meant something
in the source drawing (plot view, visual style) are dropped on import.
- Options → General → Plotting: "Show the page setup for new layouts"
opens the Plot / Page Setup dialog whenever a layout is created
(persisted with the plot preferences).
Tests: the document reader, the command (all / named / unknown / missing
file / undo) against a drawing saved by the app, the chooser flow, and the
new-layout option. Nine new strings in all 21 locales.

Plot dialog:
- "Units" (millimetres / inches) is the page setup's own unit: the offsets
and the custom scale are shown in it, the stored ratio converts with it
so the plotted result and the paper space's unit stay the same
- "Custom: [paper] mm = [drawing] units" spells the picked scale in that
unit and accepts a typed ratio, which selects the list's name for it or
becomes a ratio entry of its own
- "Hide paperspace objects" is the page setup's plot-hidden flag; it is no
longer derived from the "Hidden Line" shade mode
- "Save changes to layout" (paper layouts, on by default) writes the dialog
into the layout when a plot is sent; previews never touch it
- offsets are labelled in the page-setup unit and kept in millimetres in
the file
System variables (typeable, through SETVAR, listed by SETVAR ?):
- PLOTOFFSET, PAPERUPDATE, PLOTROTMODE, PLOTTRANSPARENCYOVERRIDE and
BACKGROUNDPLOT live with the persisted plot preferences: the plot origin
counts from the printable corner unless PLOTOFFSET says the paper edge;
a printer that does not list the sheet either warns or switches to its
default sheet; transparency can be forced on or off; BACKGROUNDPLOT bit 1
is the dialog's background switch and bit 2 drives batch plots
- CTAB and TILEMODE read and switch the current layout
Tests cover every new control and variable; six new strings in all 21
locales; the Plot dialog grows to 940×690 for the two extra rows.

CREATESKETCH opens a sketch on the current UCS, or on one of the three
origin planes with XY, XZ or YZ. FINISHSKETCH closes it again.
Nothing here is new machinery: the plane is a UCS, the square-on view
is PLAN, the drafting aids are the snapper. What the pair adds is
holding them together and putting them back afterwards, including the
snap master state, so a user who works with snapping off gets that
back rather than silently keeping it.
Squaring the view up is not cosmetic. Drawing on a plane seen nearly
edge-on is the main way geometry lands somewhere the user did not
mean, because a few pixels of cursor travel cover a long way in world
space.
A sketch is a mode rather than a document object, so what it produces
is ordinary model-space geometry and the file stays a DWG other
software can open. Whatever was drawn becomes the Previous selection
set, so EXTRUDE then Previous consumes it without making the user
reselect a profile they just finished.
Comments and the Options help text describe the behaviour of commercial
solutions without naming any product. The command menu puts the command's
keywords directly under Enter / Cancel, with Recent Input and Snap
Overrides below them, so the choices that change from step to step are the
closest to the pointer.

The command menu now follows the commercial solutions' layout row for row: Enter, Cancel,
Recent Input ▸, the command's keywords, Snap Overrides ▸ (every object snap
with its glyph, Mid Between 2 Points, None, Osnap Settings…), then Pan and
Zoom. Pan / Zoom run transparently while a command is active ('PAN,
'ZOOM …): navigation modes leave the command untouched and an interactive
ZOOM Window parks it and resumes it afterwards. Rows carry an icon gutter
so labels align; the Enter row shows a default value ("<0.5000>") as its
hint instead of a second finish row.
ARC gets the commercial solutions' prompt flow with all keywords: start [Center], second
point [Center/End], end; after Center: end [Angle/chord Length]; after
End: center [Angle/Direction/Radius]; Enter continues tangent. The
previous default (Center/Start/End with method codes) stays as ARC_CSE.
Object snaps gain a one-shot "None" override. New strings in all locales.

The viewport context menu is now built from a pure model
(ui::popup::context_menu) rendered by the overlay: while a command runs it
offers Enter / Cancel / every keyword of the command's options() with the
keyword shown as a hint, a Recent Input submenu and M2P; when idle it offers
Repeat, Recent Input, Clipboard, Undo/Redo with history labels, the edit
block (Erase/Move/Copy/Scale/Rotate/Mirror/Draw Order), Isolate, Pan/Zoom,
selection tools, Properties and Options. The default row is anchored under
the pointer and the menu is keyboard-navigable (arrows, Enter, mnemonic
letters; any other key closes it and types into the command line).
Right-click behaviour is a user preference (Options → User Preferences,
SHORTCUTMENU / SHORTCUTMENUDURATION): shortcut menu (commercial solutions default),
time-sensitive, or the previous Enter-first cycle.
LINE gains options() (Close/Undo/eXit).

- IMAGEEMBED: pack raster images into OLE2FRAME entities so a .dwg is
self-contained; 'Embed Image' entry in the XREF attach menu; control/MCP
op embed_image for external tools; dxf_name for OLE2FRAME queries.
- Scene: populate_images_from_document now rebuilds OLE2FRAME and PDF
underlay models too (they used to vanish after any XREF op).
- Printing: add PRINTER_ENUM_NETWORK pass when listing printers; GDI
spooler fallback (hayro raster at 300 DPI + StretchDIBits) for hosts
whose PDF handler registers no print verb; DEVMODE orientation with a
90-degree raster rotation fallback for v4 drivers; fix the fit-scale
precedence bug that printed blank pages.
- PDF export dialogs on Windows use the async file dialog so the native
overwrite confirmation no longer deadlocks the UI thread.
- Plot dialog: persist the chosen printer (saved on selection) and the
picked plot window across sessions; page setups with no device no
longer reset the output device.
- Community fonts: detect unresolvable .shx references on open and offer
a download from the repository's fonts/ folder (contribution guide in
fonts/README.md); custom font source URL setting for intranet font
servers; downloaded fonts resolve from the per-user fonts directory.
Refresh associations after complete SpaceMouse camera updates and recognize imported paper-space owners without Layout objects. Use kernel containment, intersection, perpendicular and spline tangent solving; pin cadkernel 7ce27f2 and add regressions.
Point input now keeps an `AcceptedSnap` alongside each point a command
collects: the paper point, the model point it came from, the viewport and
frame it was seen through, and the geometry identity the snap engine
attributed. Interactive picks record in the click handler, typed / dynamic /
headless points record in `feed_command`, and the list is cleared whenever a
command starts or the active space changes. Commands that don't care keep
consuming the plain paper point unchanged; PR2 reads the model point and
frame, PR3 the source.
Dimension association inference is suppressed when the dimension's points came
through a viewport. Inference matches geometry against the dimension's own
definition points in whatever space it is handed, so paper definition points
projected from a viewport would associate with unrelated paper-sheet geometry
at those coordinates, or match model geometry using paper coordinates. An
empty source list makes `attach_dimension_association` a no-op. PR3 replaces
this with real viewport-aware associations.

**TEXTFILL marked the drawing modified.** It is an application preference —
it lives in a process global and is snapshotted into settings.json — but it
was missing from the list of names that persist, so setting it dirtied the
open drawing instead and never reached the settings file through that path.
**LTSCALE and CELTSCALE validated differently depending on the door.** The
standalone commands reject a value of zero or less, because a non-positive
linetype scale degenerates every dash pattern in the drawing. `SETVAR LTSCALE
-5` accepted it. A test drives both entry points for both variables and fails
on the SETVAR path without the fix.
**ISAVEBAK, SAVETIME and FILEASSOC were missing from the autocomplete
registry** although all three dispatch, so the command line never offered
them.
**`bg_color` and `paper_bg_color` were dead fields**, always written as `None`
and ignored on load since the model-space configuration superseded them.
Removing them is safe: the config is `#[serde(default)]` and ignores unknown
keys, so existing settings files simply stop carrying them.
One thing the survey flagged that turned out not to be a bug: on the Display
page the model background row hides itself outside Custom mode while the
paper and desk rows do not. That asymmetry is correct — the canvas mode
governs only the model background, and the other two apply in every mode.
