The Sketch Palette's line types are three drawn icons (solid, one gap, gap with a dot) instead of text glyphs, and the construction orange is now chosen by the caller (`fixed_accent` on the toolbar) rather than hardcoded in the icons.
Sketch Scale now opens a tool window with the entities, an optional base point and a typed factor, instead of running the command with no parameters and raising an engine error.
Adds `fit: taper` to Fillet: where a constant radius doesn't fit along a straight edge, it follows the room there as a smooth spline, down to zero where a face closes to a point. Taper to Fit is in the Fillet dialog, and the feature's warning says how far it tapered.
Outside a sketch, a sketch tool's shortcut opens Create Sketch on the selected plane or planar face (or asks for one), then starts that tool in the new sketch.
`SolveApp::start` now honours a command's enabled flag, so shortcuts, the command palette and the control channel can't start a disabled command, and Move is disabled while a sketch is open.
Adds a Feature Options section to the Sketch Palette with the running tool's modes as icon buttons, so you can switch between e.g. circle or rectangle variants mid-tool.
Convert to Sheet Metal now takes a solid or a shelled body by its bend edges (`bends`): the faces reached from the fixed face across those edges become the sheet, keeping the part's envelope, with the flat pattern by the rule's K-factor and radius. Other edges between sheet faces are cut open. The result works with edge flanges, cuts, Unfold/Refold, the flat pattern and DXF. A conversion without `bends` is the plate conversion as before. The optional `bends` field is noted under format 17. Fixes#647.

The mouse wheel over a dialog's list, a drop-down or a menu that hangs over the model now scrolls only that list; the view zooms only when the pointer is really over the model. Fixes#678.

The Box, Cylinder, Sphere, Torus and Coil dialogs now start their sizes in the design's units with the unit written out ("20 mm", "20 in"), like the other dialogs. OK makes the same sizes as before. Fixes#630.

A Single hole picked on or near a sketch point that lies on the face (a circle's centre) now goes to that point, as a Multiple pick does. Picks away from sketch points, or near one that isn't on the face under the cursor, stay where they were clicked. Fixes#657.

Dragging a text outline now moves the whole editable text, and Move/Copy shifts or rotates it as one piece (a copy stays independently editable). Content, font, height and outline identities are kept; a drag is one undo step and Esc restores the start.
With nothing selected, Extrude and Revolve no longer pre-pick the last sketch's profile when a feature already builds from it, so OK no longer cuts into a part nobody picked. Fixes#684.

A clover of same-size rectangles drawn around a shared corner was refused as over-constrained.
Constraints that remove no degree of freedom but still hold (zero residual) are now kept and shown dimmed as redundant. Conflicting ones are still refused. A redundant driving dimension is refused with "already determined by ...". Typed sizes become driven (reference) dimensions. Drawing no longer adds Horizontal/Vertical to a side that is already implied through two coincident corners. The solver reports redundant constraints using a Jacobian row-dependence test.

Home, Fit, the orbit pivot and the scene's depth range counted sketches the view doesn't draw (ones used by an extrude or revolve, ones in hidden components), so after a body moved away from its sketch Home framed the empty spot it came from. They now use the world-space bounds of what is shown now (view::visible_bounds / view::sketch_drawn, viewport::view_bounds). The pick-box cache holds its world state instead of its address. A middle-button double-click goes Home in every preset (Preferences › Navigation: Home, Fit or Off).

As soon as a pick settles the dimension (one line, circle or arc, or the second point or line of a distance or angle), its value box takes the keyboard with the measured value selected. The text follows the cursor while typing and Enter places it there (or in its default place), as one undo step. A click before typing pins the text and keeps the box focused, a click on another entity makes a distance or angle, Tab hands back to placing first, Esc cancels. Letters go into the box, not to tool shortcuts.

The loading card was centred on its height, so Cancel moved when the progress bar or the saved preview appeared, and a click could miss it. That's what made the Cancel test flaky on slow runners. The card is now anchored at its top, Cancel sits in the heading row and the progress bar is always shown. Progress::hold_at lets the test hold a load at a feature boundary until it's cancelled.

The loading box was a full-window modal whose backdrop covered the custom title bar. It is now a light overlay under the title bar, so dragging, snapping, resizing and the window buttons keep working during open, import and recovery. The timeline rebuild shows feature N of M, and Cancel or Esc stops it at the next feature (solidcraft_doc::progress). Recovery restore now runs off the window thread too. A control or MCP doc.open or import is answered once the file is in and doesn't block frames; edits sent meanwhile wait their turn. The web build still opens in place.

Select Other keeps at most 20 rows per kind, nearest first, so a dense spot (a modelled thread, an imported mesh) no longer lists thousands of rows. The title shows how many were under the cursor in all, and ui.selectOther reports it as total.
Fixes#602. Collinear-edge merging, piece naming and the dialog preview each work in one pass instead of quadratic loops; the issue's example goes from 86 s to 5.1 s.
Fillet fit: reduce lowers the radius only where it doesn't fit: picked edges are grouped where they can limit each other (sharing a face or vertex), and each group gets the requested radius where it fits, otherwise the largest that does. Refs #293.

New view.apply command restores a named view, a standard view or any camera (view state, not an undo step); the desktop viewport follows it and the browser's Restore uses it. The MCP screenshot tool takes a named view or a camera. Un-ignores the #528 regression test. Fixes#528.

A save with cache: true also stores a small bounded PNG thumbnail (240 × 150, at most 256 KiB, keyed to the exact document) made from cached meshes only. Home uses it when its local picture is missing, without rebuilding the design; ordinary saves and downloads still omit it. Closes#303.

Box, Cylinder, Sphere, Torus and Coil go where a face or vertex was picked before starting them: centred on the point, standing on a planar face (a box on an axis-aligned face sits on it; cylinders and coils take the face normal as axis). The dialog shows the position with a button to place at the origin instead. Fixes#580.

Sketch Create groups its drawing tools under Line, Rectangle, Circle, Arc, Slot, Polygon and Spline. Each family's main button starts the part's last-used variant and its caret lists the others; choices are per open part, kept across sketch sessions and tab switches, and never touch the design or undo history.

A design can define its own physical materials (material.create, material.edit, material.delete): name, density and an optional look. They work everywhere built-in materials do: assignment, mass properties, colours and configuration cells. Stored in user_materials, an additive field under format 16. Un-ignores the #554 regression test. Fixes#532.

ui.at {plane} now returns the middle of the origin plane's square, or else the middle of a quarter that a click actually picks, so scripted clicks on XY no longer start a sketch on XZ from iso-like views.
Fixes#478. Desktop Ctrl/Cmd +/-/0 now update the saved UI scale instead of flashing back, and the Preferences scale slider applies the new layout on release (range 50-250%, matching the preference validation). Addresses the drag jitter in #272.
sketch.text and sketch.edit_text take an optional font: an installed family or a .ttf/.otf/.ttc file. Edit Text gets a Font field. The font is kept with the text under format 16; no fonts are bundled, and the font search is bounded.

solid.move takes copy: true to keep the source bodies and transform a new copy of each, with a Create Copy box in the Move dialog. Designs without it save and load exactly as before.
Sheet Metal Rules get a Corner Relief Shape (notch, round or rectangular), sized by the rule's corner relief, cut where two bends meet at a corner of the base. Notch, the default, keeps existing designs as they were. File format 16.

When sample points say two bodies are apart or one is inside the other, the facetings are now checked for surfaces passing through each other; if they do, the boolean is computed instead of shortcut. If it still can't be intersected, the sampled answer is kept as a flagged, unverified result, and Interference lists such pairs as "could not be checked" with the reason. Fixes#442 and #443.

Every Options row puts its control in one right-aligned column, Look At is a single label with an icon button, Options folds with a disclosure triangle, and the toggles use plain nouns (with dedicated ids for Profile and Points so they don't collide with other labels).
The Linetype buttons now read "Draw as {linetype}" with nothing selected and "Convert the selection to {linetype}" with a selection, in all four locales.
A profile traced over a face sketch's projected boundary left the extrude's caps and sides without an exact planar source, so a sketch or offset plane on the new top face was refused. The drawn curve is now the edge's source where it covers a projection. Clearer fixed-plane message; regression tests in the engine, UI harness and design corpus, plus a corpus-wide flat-face attachment check (known gaps under #491-#495).

Hold the left button still (long-press on touch) or right-click › Select Other… to list everything under the cursor: sketch points and curves ("Line 3", "Point (arc 2 centre)"), vertices, edges, faces, bodies, profiles, planes and axes, filtered like a click and by the open dialog's active input. Hovering a row lights it up; clicking selects it (Shift/Ctrl add) or feeds the dialog. A repeat click on the same spot with nothing changed selects the next thing there; a double-click keeps its own actions.

* fix: name an untitled design after its file on save and open
Design tabs all read "Untitled" because a design's name only ever came
from file.new. Saving a design still under the default name now names it
after the file (bracket.solidcraft -> "bracket"), and opening a file whose
stored name is the default shows its file name. Names chosen by the user
are kept. The rename is part of the save, so it is not an undo step and
does not leave the design marked as changed.

The live preview also evaluates each command as a new body, to show the tool of a join or cut
(as_new_body sets every `operation` to "new"). A combine has no new-body form: its operation is
between bodies that already exist, and solid.combine rejects "new" ("operation must be join, cut
or intersect"). That error became the preview's error even when the combine itself worked, and
since OK is greyed while the preview has an error, a combine could not be applied from its
dialog at all. as_new_body now leaves solid.combine alone, so its preview shows the result.

* fix(ui): draw sketch constraint glyphs in red
Traditional CAD convention marks constraint glyphs in red. glyph_edge
and glyph_text in both themes now use red values. glyph_bg is
unchanged. The same glyph box switches to the error colour when a
constraint fails. The new reds are chosen to stay distinct from that
error colour. They are also distinct from the blue used for selection
and hover. See the pull request body for the before and after RGB
values and the contrast reasoning.
* fix(ui): match constraint toolbar icons to the red glyph colour
The CONSTRAINTS panel buttons and their drop-down rows drew their accent
strokes in the normal sketch tool green. They now use glyph_text, the same
red the matching constraint glyph box uses in the sketch view. A new
panel_accent helper in toolbar.rs picks the colour: the constraint red for
the CONSTRAINTS panel, the existing sketch green for every other sketch
tool, and the plain accent everywhere else. No other toolbar styling
changed.
* Add a one-surface fill of closed 3D loops to geom
A closed loop of curves that does not lie in a plane has no exact surface;
the usual answer is one smooth face fitted over it. fill_loop does that:
- the loop's best-fit plane (Newell normal), with a frame chosen from the
loop itself so the result does not depend on where the loop starts, its
direction, or where the part sits
- the loop seen along that normal must be simple and must not fold or run
along the normal; otherwise it is refused ("not supported yet"), never
filled with wrong geometry
- one non-rational bicubic B-spline height field over the loop's box,
fitted by least squares to the loop's samples (The NURBS Book 9.4.1,
9.4.3, eq. 9.62/9.65) with a thin-plate smoothness term
lambda*A*int(h_uu^2 + 2 h_uv^2 + h_vv^2), A one grid cell's area, so the
fit is the same at any scale; only planes are reproduced exactly
- span counts per direction (long narrow loops fit), refined until the
loop is within tolerance, else refused with the deviation reached
bspline: bisected span search, basis functions on a stack array, one
clamping helper shared by curves and surfaces, one binomial helper.

* Patch fills non-planar loops of edges with one smooth face (#250)
surface.patch with edges refused any loop that is not planar ("not
supported yet: patching a loop that is not planar"). It now fills it:
- planar loops still get one exact planar face, but planarity is certified
conservatively: lines by their ends, B-spline/NURBS edges by their control
points, intersection curves by their samples lying on a support plane
within tolerance; a loop that can't be certified is filled instead
- other loops get one face from geom's fill_loop, bounded by the body's own
chained edges, whole (no split): its history is one generated face whose
edges are the body's, and it stitches back into a closed solid
- intersection-curve edges are sampled by a seeded, guarded double
projection shared by the planarity test and the fill (plane_fit)
- the face tolerance is 10x the planarity tolerance (documented: later
operations take the face to contain its edges within it)
- edge picking runs inside the guard; the geom->truck conversion is shared
with the T-spline sheets (spline_conv); the Newell plane fit is shared with
STEP import
Tests: 3- to 8-sided, concave (dart, arrow, plus), flat-corner, two-edge and
imported rims fill as one face and stitch closed (volumes against an
independent integral); finite mesh normals, same result for any pick order
or placement; non-height-field loops and too-fine detail are refused.

* Test the Patch dialog filling a non-planar loop of picked edges
The Patch dialog's only test used a sketch profile. Picking the four
curved rim edges of a box cut by a sideways cylinder now makes one

A sketch on a flat face of a sheet metal body was refused ("this face has no exact planar
source"), so the only way was a plane frozen in space. When the sheet changes (a flange's
angle, the thickness), the frozen sketch stays behind: a cut from it fails on the slanted
flange or leaves a blind pocket in the thicker sheet.
`sketch.create` with a face of a sheet metal body now attaches the sketch to the panel the
face belongs to. It keeps the face's name, `sheet:<body>:<panel>:<top|bottom>` (the panel is
the base or a flange's feature tag), and takes the panel's exact plane from its flat region
and fold each time the model is evaluated, so the sketch follows the sheet through parameter
changes, unfold and refold. Its coordinates are the flat pattern's (the bottom face's y
mirrored). A face that is gone is reported as a lost attachment, never replaced by the
nearest face. The attachment follows a renamed or copied body, shows as `sheet_face` in the
command result and as its own status in Redefine Sketch Plane. `fixed: true` still freezes.

A left press with Ctrl (or Cmd) held, no Shift or Alt, on empty space orbits
for that press, unless the preset binds Ctrl+left itself. It only orbits
once the pointer moves: a Ctrl+click still adds to the selection, and
Ctrl+drag on sketch geometry still drags it without snapping. Works with a
tool active, without adding geometry. Ctrl+box selection from empty space
becomes the orbit; Shift+box selection still adds.
Preferences › Navigation and the UI tour mention it. Test drives every
preset through real pointer events.
