- Keyboard shortcuts (Onshape-style, three scoped layers): feature tools on
Shift+letter, 2D sketch tools on single letters (in-sketch), view/nav on
single letters (out-of-sketch). Dispatched via the DesignPanel CHAR_HOOK.
- View toggles: P = origin planes, A = world axis triad (render_view_helpers).
- Section view (non-destructive): a single horizontal clip that hides half the
model to inspect inside, showing only the solid remaining half (no ghost).
Left-panel "Section View" button or X toggles it; PageUp/PageDown move the
plane; "Flip Section" button or F shows the opposite half. Never a body/Cut.

Closes the gizmo-parity gap (bd snaporca-4h5): the five solid features that were
card-only now give in-canvas feedback like their siblings.
Draft — angle-arc drag gizmo (clone of the Revolve gizmo): once a side face is
picked, a cyan arc anchored at the face centroid shows the taper angle; drag the
tip or type the angle, the live ghost tapers with it. Axis = world +Z (the neutral
pull direction), clamped [-89, 89].
Cut — plane offset-arrow + cutting-plane rectangle (clone of the Shell arrow, adds
a wire rectangle in the cut plane sized to the target body bbox). The arrow drags
the signed offset along the plane normal; the rectangle rides at the cut position;
the ghost splits live. (Also covers bd snaporca-1gh / snaporca-mmr.)
Boolean / Sweep / Loft — operand highlighting (new by-index highlight infra):
- Boolean tints the target body teal-green and the tool body orange (per-index
body tint added to the DesignCanvas GLVolume colour loop + set_operand_bodies).
- Sweep tints the profile sketch cyan and the path sketch magenta.
- Loft tints every selected profile sketch green.
Sketch tints reuse the DisplaySketch overlay via a feature-index -> colour map
(sketch_hl_color); DisplaySketch struct unchanged. All self-gate by active tool
and clear on close_tool.
Wiring mirrors the existing gizmo pattern 1:1 (m_*_active / render_* / set_* /
clear_* / update_* in refresh_preview / DesignCanvas passthroughs / render dispatch
+ on_mouse drag branch). Both forks; DesignSketchTool.{cpp,hpp} + DesignCanvas.hpp
+ DesignPanel.hpp byte-identical across forks. Built clean on both. Draft, Cut and
Boolean highlight live-verified on :10; Sweep/Loft sketch tint is code-complete and
build-clean (visual check pending — needs hand-drawn profile/path sketches).

Sketch dimension labels — now identical to the Prepare/Preview Measure gizmo:
- draw_text repurposed to draw_dim_label: white ImGui text in a translucent-white box,
mirroring GLGizmoMeasure::render_dimensioning exactly (push_common_window_style sets the
text colour, BringWindowToDisplayFront, imgui_internal.h).
- ROOT-CAUSE FIX: world_to_screen_px multiplied two Eigen Transform3d objects
((proj * view).matrix()); a projection is not affine so Eigen mangled it -> garbage screen
coords, so labels never appeared. Now proj.matrix() * view.matrix() like Measure. (That
helper was previously [[maybe_unused]] dead code, never exercised.)
- Leaders: offset clear of the sketch line (no longer coincident with the geometry), single
point-to-point dimension line + arrows, neutral colour, width 0.6 -> 0.2.
- dim_text appends mm/in on linear dims (angles keep the degree sign).
New Design + delete:
- New "New Design" button wipes the whole document (confirm dialog) — the clear-all the
per-row Delete can't give. CadDocument::clear() now also clears bodies + display_body_meshes
(it left them stale, so solids lingered after a clear).
- on_delete_feature: a Body-row selection now shows a helpful hint (bodies are recomputed
results with no directly-removable feature) instead of silently doing nothing.
Feature tree: auto-fits its content (refresh_tree clamps height 1..9 rows, scrolls past),
instead of a fixed 140px block.
i18n (Design tab pinned English, per the UX contract):
- Restore the lost #undef _L / #define _L(s) wxString::FromUTF8(s) override atop DesignPanel.cpp;
wrap all ~54 dropdown options in _L so the single lever governs them. feature_type_name left
untranslated (machine-facing MCP JSON).
UX: per-card Value Confirm/Cancel buttons removed — the single ribbon action bar owns value
confirm/cancel via an m_value_cont guard in tool_confirm/tool_cancel. "needs a body" status
messages unified.
Both forks; DesignSketchTool.{cpp,hpp} + CadDocument.cpp byte-identical across forks. Built
clean; New Design / feature-delete / rotation / tree auto-fit live-verified on :10.

Predispose the Design tab to run under an external MCP agent. New
McpControl.{cpp,hpp} embeds a line-delimited JSON-RPC 2.0 server over a
Unix domain socket, off unless env SNAPORCA_MCP is set. Requests are
marshalled onto the wx main thread and run through the SAME CadDocument
kernel the GUI uses, via two thin DesignPanel hooks (mcp_doc /
mcp_after_change) — no parallel engine.
Slice-1 methods: describe_tools (introspection -> the bridge builds tool
schemas), describe_scene (feature tree + per-body bounding boxes), and
extrude (centred rectangle sketch -> new solid). Every op returns its
full post-state. POSIX-only; Windows compiles to a no-op.

Add an "Export STEP…" button to the Design panel that writes every body to a
.step file as native B-rep (not mesh).
- CadDocument::export_step: compound all bodies (applying their per-body Move
display transform so the STEP matches what Commit ships) and write via OCCT
STEPControl_Writer (AsIs). Full error handling incl. OCCT Standard_Failure.
- DesignPanel::on_export_step: bake any open preview, wxFileDialog save, export
at the displayed body positions, status feedback.
Kernel write path verified with a standalone OCCT box->STEP->readback check
(1 solid, non-null) against the same OCCT build.

Boolean features can now be re-edited from the feature tree (op, target/tool
body, keep-tool, fuzzy tolerance), funnelling through the same replace_feature
path as every other editable feature.
- on_edit_feature: route CadFeatureType::Boolean to the Boolean card.
- load_feature_into_dialog: populate the Boolean card from the saved feature.
- populate_body_choices(as_of_feature): when re-editing, list the bodies as they
existed just before the boolean (replay the recipe truncated to that slot) so a
consumed tool body still appears and the saved target/tool selections round-trip
instead of collapsing to one entry.

Port of the snaporca CAD work to the mainline fork.
- Onshape default planes (XY/XZ/YZ) at the bed centre (transparent, labelled);
modeling origin unified to the bed centre (CadDocument::modeling_origin);
world-axis triad moved to the bed centre on the Design canvas only.
- Datum plane: clickable ghost-plane base pick + draggable offset arrow.
- Slot: dims reassessed to inter-centre distance / radius / angle; fixed the
duplicate cap-arc radius quote.
- Hole: 3D cube move-handle on the face; binds to the face on the first click;
decluttered side-distance construction lines.
- Thread: derive the M spec (diameter/pitch/depth) from a picked cylindrical
surface or circular edge (GeometryEngine::circle_of_edge); fuse the helical
ridge onto the existing body; MakePipeShell fixed-binormal sweep (uniform, no
twist) + self-intersection/param guards.

Dual-fork mandate: port the parametric-recipe 3MF persistence from
snaporca-cad commits ed19eac+147e1c4 so a saved project reopens with the
editable CAD feature tree, not just the baked mesh.
Shared kernel/format/GUI (identical to snaporca-cad):
- CadDocument serialize_recipe/deserialize_recipe (cereal BinaryArchive,
versioned) + CadFeature split save/load + imported_solid<->BRep string.
- Model::cad_recipe carried through 3MF zip entry Metadata/SnapOrca_cad.bin
(writer + binary-verbatim reader branch).
- DesignPanel on_commit() stamps the recipe; on_tab_shown() rehydrates a
loaded project via load_recipe() (deserialize -> feed_bodies + refresh_tree).
Mainline-only adapters (no snaporca-cad counterpart — Catch2 v3 vs v2):
- tests/libslic3r/test_caddocument.cpp: <catch2/catch_all.hpp> +
`using Catch::Approx;` (v3 scopes Approx under Catch::).
- tests/libslic3r/CMakeLists.txt: register test_caddocument.cpp (the
original CAD port had left it out of the test build).
Verified on behemoth (snaporca-deps toolchain): libslic3r_tests clean;
[CadDocument] 17/18 (only the pre-existing tangent-to-circle SIGABRT fails,
identical to snaporca-tkz); K1 serialize round-trip + version-reject pass
(13 assertions); new [3mf] "CAD recipe blob survives a 3mf save/load cycle"
passes byte-for-byte; orca-slicer GUI links clean (186/186, DesignPanel.cpp
compiled). Interactive :10 click-through pending (no Design-tab automation).
