Part of #771 and #772. solid.sweep and surface.sweep take orientation (perpendicular, parallel or a direction), twist (up to 4 turns) and end scale (0.01 to 100), applied about the profile's normal through the path's start; default options run the old sweep, so existing sweeps are unchanged. New fields are optional, left out when unset and noted under format 21; twist and scale are model parameters. Both sweep dialogs get Orientation, Twist and End Scale rows; labels in every catalog. Checked on main + this branch: cargo check --workspace, kernel/engine/UI sweep tests, the doc suite and the robustness goldens.
One docked Save as mesh dialog replaces Export STL / 3MF / 3MF with face tags, with an optional Send to slicer that lists the slicers installed on this machine. Engine: file.save_mesh and file.slicers; the Convert Mesh dialog goes (mesh.convert and the MeshConvert feature stay, so existing designs open). Strings in all catalogs; screenshots in the PR. Checked on main + this branch: cargo check --workspace, the engine slicer/mesh/file tests, the UI catalog and menu tests and scenario s14 (the one local colour-token failure is epaint's TexturesDelta panic, which main shows on this machine too).
A symmetric solid extrude of 10 mm is now 10 mm thick, 5 mm each side of the sketch plane, and switching from One Side to Symmetric keeps the thickness entered. Under format 21 the extent records its convention; designs saved without it keep the per-side reading, so their geometry and parameters don't change. Fixes#1236.

Extend works on any surface: natural (continuing the face's own surface), tangent (G1 run-off) or curvature (G2 run-off), by a distance, up to a plane or face, or back to the surface's bounds, with neighbouring edges lengthened to meet. Untrim and Extend share face parameter-loop helpers. The new SurfaceExtend fields are noted under format 21. Closes#760.
Ruled Surface: strips off an edge chain in normal, tangent, angle or direction mode, exact planes/cylinders/cones where possible, mitred or round corners, stitched into one surface body. SurfaceRuled is noted under format 21. Closes#762.
Offsets picked faces along their normals into a new surface body: planes and cylinders move exactly, other faces get a fitted B-spline within tolerance, and offsets that would fold over are refused. Adds the SurfaceOffset feature (noted under format 18), the surface.offset engine command and an Offset Surface dialog.
Closes#758.

Surface Loft lofts open or closed curve chains, one section per sketch in pick order, into surface bodies. Adds the SurfaceLoft feature (format 18 note), the surface.loft command, a dialog with Edit Feature support, and kernel and engine tests.
Part of #757.
Surface Sweep carries open curves and closed profile boundaries along a sketch path into surface bodies, with smooth walls along curved point paths. Adds the SurfaceSweep feature (format 18 note), the surface.sweep command, a dialog with Edit Feature support, and kernel and engine tests.
Part of #757.
Surface Revolve turns open curves and closed profile boundaries about a sketch axis into surface bodies, with cone apexes and sphere poles where a chain ends on the axis, and a closed shell made solid. Adds the SurfaceRevolve feature (format 18 note), the surface.revolve command, a dialog with Edit Feature support and analytic kernel and engine tests.
Part of #757.
surface.extrude sweeps open curve chains and profile boundaries along the sketch normal into a surface body (walls only, no caps). Saved under format 17.
