Tommaso Bianchi 6fc3c99e31 Mate connectors: draw the dashed pair line between the two origins
The last unbuilt element of snaporca-wgsc. Two connectors a mate binds are one
object with a gap still in it; drawn as two separate frames they read as
unrelated, and "which two of these five frames are the mate?" had no answer on
screen at all.

Dashed, grey, drawn IN WORLD along the segment joining the origins -- so it
foreshortens with the model and its length is the gap the mate has left to
close. A Fastened mate therefore draws nothing, which is correct: the gap is
zero. Screen-constant dash pitch (6 px dash, 4 px gap) like every other gizmo
here, with the pitch opening up beyond 400 dashes so a mate across a large
assembly cannot emit thousands of segments. Depth test off: the line's job is
to say "these two belong together", and it has to say it even when a part sits
between the camera and one end.

Fed from BOTH sources of polarity truth, the same two the role colours already
use: every committed Mate feature (connectors named by feature index), and the
live pick of an open Mate card (named by combo ordinal). Only resolved frames
are eligible, so an unresolved end draws no line rather than a line to the
origin of the world.

RIG-VERIFIED on :10 with the fresh binary (/OrcaSlicer/build/src/Release,
2026-08-17 12:43): two imported bodies, a face-and-direction connector on each,
Planar mate offset 40. Sampling the segment between the two origins gives a
regular dash/gap alternation of 13:10 sample units -- the 6:4 px pitch -- in the
stroke grey (107,117,133), over both solids. The grey end keeps its open collar
head and the blue end its filled one, so polarity and pair now read together.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 b4d6abc57a Design: draw the mate connector as a bear face, with the disc kept behind a preference
Tommaso's decision (snaporca-x0kd): face orientation is hardwired perception -- a toddler reads
a face's roll and verse with no instruction -- so the connector is a face by default and the
conventional disc + roll quadrant stays, selectable, for users who expect it.

  Preferences > Control > Camera > "Draw mate connectors as a face", default ON, key
  design_connector_face_glyph. Read every frame rather than latched, so toggling takes effect on
  the next repaint -- a look you cannot A/B without restarting will not get compared. Verified on
  the rig: unchecking it switches the viewport to the disc live, no restart.

WHY A RELIEF AND NOT A DRAWING. A flat face in the connector's plane foreshortens by
sin(elevation) and collapses at a grazing view exactly like the quadrant it replaces -- measured,
the quadrant falls 89 -> 20 -> 3 -> 0 lit pixels from 47 degrees to edge-on. The relief does not:
its silhouette carries the information. So the glyph is a small shaded solid, painter-sorted,
lambert-shaded against a light fixed in CAMERA space so orbiting does not swing the shading.

THE MUZZLE, AND THE MISTAKE THAT NEARLY LOST IT. It is the only feature standing along +Z, so it
says which way the connector points and it is all that survives edge-on. Two errors on the way:

  1. I built its footprint from height*tan(draft) and got a needle. The real base OVERHANGS the
     crest at both ends (0.062 nose, 0.034 tail) and that overhang is what makes it a wedge. Base
     now lifted straight off the mesh.

  2. Worse, I chased fidelity. Scaled honestly the ridge is 11.3 mm on an 83.3 mm face -- 13.6 %
     of the width -- and at 22-48 px that is a scratch. Tommaso looked at it and could not find
     the muzzle at all, which is the only test that counts. A glyph is a symbol, not a scale
     model, so it now gets two deliberate exaggerations, and COLOUR does most of the work:
     muzzle share of lit pixels at 90/16/6 deg -- body tone 14.8/11.3/17.5 %, accent gold
     18.3/19.2/23.9 %, accent gold at 1.8x width 23.5/25.2/31.2 %.

  The accent is the same gold the disc spends on its roll quadrant, so it stays this tab's "here
  is the direction that matters" colour. Polarity is still on the Z arrow's head; nothing collides.

A connector whose ROLL COULD NOT BE DERIVED keeps the disc treatment whatever the preference says.
A face asserts a definite orientation, and asserting one for a roll that was never derived is the
same confident lie that got billboarding rejected.

Geometry is emitted from the part by docs/design/mate-connectors/emit_glyph_table.py, not
hand-drawn, so glyph and printed connector cannot drift: 12-vertex outline, two eyes, chin bar,
cheek dot, and the snout wedge. Crest 29.0 mm / 6.58 mm drop / 13.1 deg against the review's
28.3 / 6.61 / 13.1 on the B-rep.

Also fixes extract_outline.py, which walked w.Edges: OCC returns them in storage order, not ring
order, ignoring per-edge orientation, so the outline was scrambled -- 45 points and perimeter
6.380 where a clean ring gives 31 and 3.335. Every measurement in the design notes was re-run.
The correction reversed one earlier finding: handedness does NOT read on its own (5.4/8.0/9.1 %
different from its mirror, not the 32-35 % the scrambled ring produced), so the cheek dot is
required rather than merely nice.

RIG-VERIFIED on Xvfb :12 against a 60x40x10 box with a face+edge connector: the face renders with
both eyes, ears, chin bar, cheek dot and a gold muzzle standing proud; the Z arrow degenerates to
its ring when viewed down the axis; and the preference switches to the disc live.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 614824ce89 CAD: right-click in a sketch offers verbs for what is selected, instead of for nothing
Select a line in a sketch, right-click, and every sketch verb was greyed: Trim,
Extend, Fillet, Chamfer, Offset, Mirror, the arrays, Constrain. The menu was
right and the selection was gone — two independent faults, each of which hid
the other.

FIRST, the Select-mode RightDown branch called clear_selection() before handing
the click back. Handing it back is correct: the m_right_consumed flag means "the
tool USED this right-click", and a plain right-click is not a gesture
terminator, so the offer should open. Clearing first is not: the offer describes
WHAT IS SELECTED, so wiping the selection guaranteed it could only ever describe
nothing. Deselection keeps its own gesture — left-click on empty space, a few
lines above in the same handler.

SECOND, offer_selection_kind() returned SkNone for every sketch state. The offer
table has always carried verbs for a selected line, arc, point or pair, but
nothing ever RETURNED those kinds, so fourteen rows were gated on selection bits
no code path could set. Classify the selection instead: SkLine / SkArc / SkPoint
/ Sk2Ent, via a first_selected_type() accessor on the tool and two forwarders on
the canvas.

Either fix alone measures as a failure — the classification is handed an empty
selection, or the preserved selection has no kind to match — which is why both
land together.

This is the second half of the report behind 3eb6e5d608: a user comparing the
Design tab with Onshape said "adding constraints seems to be missing"
(OrcaSlicer PR #15238). Constrain was one of the fourteen dead rows, and the
gesture that would have shown it threw the selection away first.

Verified at the machine on behemoth by Tommaso: select a line of a rectangle,
right-click, and the sketch verbs are live.

Tommaso Bianchi c45f84edf4 CAD: three Design-tab fixes — consumed holed loop, constraint rows, hover ghost
1. A consumed loop WITH HOLES was never dropped from the sketch overlay.
   sync_sketch_display compares each region's entity list against what a per-loop
   extrude stored, but rebuilt the candidate from the region's OWN entities while
   the extrude stores the region's entities PLUS every hole's (see
   selected_loop_entities). For a plate with one bore that is 4 against 5, so the
   match never fired and the extruded rectangle stayed drawn on top of the solid
   it had become. Adds region_entity_indices_with_holes, which returns the same
   order the extrude uses, and compares against that; a matching region now drops
   its holes' entities too. Hole-less regions are unaffected.

   This is also the artefact that made a correct plate-with-a-bore read as a
   plate with a plug in it during rig testing.

2. The Constraints card drew its header and its first row on top of each other.
   The rows and the delete buttons were parented to m_form rather than m_cards,
   so they were laid out in the wrong window's coordinate space and started at
   the card's top edge. Re-parented; nothing else about the card changed.

3. The mate hover ghost never appeared. The highlight handler asked for a repaint
   with request_repaint(), which only queues a Refresh — and a wxMenu popup runs
   its own modal loop, so the paint was not serviced until the menu closed, by
   which time the ghost had been dropped. Adds DesignCanvas::repaint_now(), which
   flushes the paint immediately, mirroring the m_status->Update() the status line
   in the same function already needed for the same reason.

Delegated to opencode (DeepSeek V4 Pro) and reviewed by diff. Fix 1 needed an
accessor on DesignSketchTool because region_loops/RegionLoop are private — that
was outside the file list it was given, and it said so rather than working around
it.

Verified on the rig: a rectangle-plus-circle sketch extrudes to a plate with a
bore and NO overlay left on top of it, and the Constraints card shows its header
clear of eight readable rows.

Tommaso Bianchi 76d7dd6946 CAD: an armed face/edge pick must not lose its click to the body escalation
A card that asks for a face ("Click a solid FACE in the viewport") could not be
satisfied. Clicking the same sub-element twice deliberately escalates to the
whole body — right for free picking, wrong here: the user clicks the very face
the card is pointing at, the escalation turns it into a whole-body pick, and the
armed capture rejects it and leaves "(none)". Both orders failed, so a
face-based Coord Sys was reachable only by accident of ordering. That mattered
beyond the card: a mate needs a connector with an owning body, and a face or
edge pick is the only thing that sets one.

Adds DesignSketchTool::set_escalate_on_repick, off while the Plane, Axis or
CoordSys card has a pick armed and back on as soon as it is captured or
abandoned. While armed, clicking a face means "this face", which is what the
prompt already says.

Verified on the rig: arm Pick Face, click the face, and it reads "#5" on the
first click. With nothing armed the escalation still alternates whole <-> face
as before.

Tommaso Bianchi 5889f6640f CAD: extrude a sketch region with its holes, and stop crashing at startup
A rectangle with a circle inside it, drawn in ONE sketch, could not be extruded
to a plate with a bore from the GUI. Five defects were in the way. Each was
found by driving the app on a headless rig and measuring the result — the code
reads correctly at every one of these points, which is why they survived.

1. Wire orientation (kernel). SketchEngine::wires_to_face added every hole as
   wires[i].Reversed(), which is only right when the sketch happens to wind both
   loops the same way. A circle drawn clockwise inside a counter-clockwise
   rectangle came out matching the outer boundary, OCCT swept it as a SECOND
   contour, and the prism was the plate with its bore filled and the disc's
   volume counted twice. Measured: bbox 67.17 x 219.67 x 10 with volume
   152088 mm3 against a solid box of 147542 — a body larger than its own
   bounding box, which is the signature. Holes are now added as-is and
   ShapeFix_Face::FixOrientation() classifies them; that is winding-independent
   and is the idiom make_extrude_regions already used for imported glyphs, which
   is why holed TEXT always extruded correctly while a holed SKETCH never did.
   After the fix: 142996 mm3, implied bore radius 12.03 mm against the circle
   drawn.

2. The live-sketch click threw the picked region away. region_at() served only
   as a yes/no gate and on_face_selected() carried no argument, so Extrude fell
   back to whichever loop the resolver found first — clicking the material of a
   plate-with-a-hole extruded the disc. The region is now carried through, and
   DesignPanel also hands it to the tool with set_loop_pick(), AFTER open_tool()
   because that re-derives selection state, since extrude_uses_loop() reads
   selected_loop_entities() and that lives on the tool.

3. region_at() had no hole awareness and no innermost preference: it returned
   the first polygon containing the point. It now skips a region when the point
   lies inside one of that region's holes, and picks the smallest containing
   loop, so a click in the bore selects the disc and a click on the material
   selects the plate.

4. Startup segfault. DesignCanvas::request_repaint probed the GL backend via
   OpenGLManager::get_gl_info().get_renderer() before the canvas had initialised
   GL — glGetString with no context current and, before init_opengl(), no loaded
   function pointers. Anything that asked for a repaint while the panel was
   still being built landed there, with no window and nothing in the log. It now
   bails at the top on !is_initialized() and asks for a Refresh instead. Note
   the crash was in the PROBE, not in render(), which already guards itself.

5. A holed sketch on a plane whose normal points -Z came out as the full box PLUS
   a disc — 220274 mm3 where 163726 was due (192000 + 28274). wires_to_face took
   a SketchPlane parameter it never used and let OCCT infer a surface from the
   outer wire; when the inferred normal disagreed with the sketch's, the hole
   classification produced no hole. Every face is now built on the sketch's own
   gp_Pln.

Also in this change, from the same rig session:

- A right-click that only clears the sketch selection no longer reports itself
  as consumed, so it stops suppressing the offer menu. With any geometry in a
  live sketch there was no menu route left to add a second entity.
- Escape no longer discards a live sketch that holds drawn geometry; it says so
  and keeps the work (live_sketch_has_work()).
- The holed-region fill is an even-odd scanline instead of a keyhole bridge, so
  no corridor triangle leaks from the bore to the nearest corner.
- Cyan is reserved for the selection: an unselected region no longer wears a
  shade one step off the selected one.
- The origin planes follow the mode, so pressing Sketch on a document that
  already has a body offers them again instead of naming a plane you cannot see.

Tests: three [holes] cases over add_extrude_entities asserting the plate-with-bore
volume, solid and face counts on both a +Z and a -Z sketch plane, and the
by-name refusal of two disjoint regions. Full [CadDocument] suite green.

Tommaso Bianchi 81876a6ce6 Sketch regions understand holes, so the plate with the hole can be selected and extruded
A rectangle with a circle inside it extruded to a plain box. Tommaso reported it
exactly right on the first attempt — "no intersection selectable, hence no plate
with hole" — and it was a causal chain, not a guess.

Two things were wrong and they compounded.

region_loops() returned N independent filled polygons with no notion of nesting,
so the only selectable things were the rectangle alone and the circle alone. The
region a user actually wants — the bounded area WITH its hole — did not exist to
be pointed at. Worse, the first polygon containing the click won, so clicking
inside the circle selected the rectangle.

And extrude_uses_loop() hands selected_loop_entities() to add_extrude_entities,
which copied only that one loop's entities into the feature. So the circle never
reached the kernel, build_sketch_face saw a single loop, and the multi-loop path
added in 5c4ced91e7 never ran. Proven from his saved project: Sketch1 held 5
entities, Extrude2 held 4, and the committed mesh was 8 vertices — a box of
260.40 x 220.91 x 10.00. Eight vertices cannot describe a bore.

A RegionLoop now carries the loops nested inside it. Containment is decided by
testing one vertex, which is sufficient because loops in a well-formed sketch do
not cross, and each loop is assigned to the SMALLEST loop containing it so a hole
belongs to the region that actually bounds it. Picking respects holes: a click in
the plate selects the plate, a click in the bore selects the disc. The selection
hands over the region's own entities plus its holes', which is what finally
reaches the kernel. The highlight lights the holes with their region, because it
has to show what will be extruded.

The status line said "Loop selected"; it now says "Region selected". What is
selected is a bounded area that may contain holes, not a single closed curve —
the old wording described the old, broken behaviour.

snaporca-txp8, and it is what makes snaporca-88v reachable from the GUI at all:
the kernel could build the holed face all along (verified on his own recipe:
2 closed loops, wires_to_face OK, area 74812.119 mm2), but nothing could ask it to.

Tommaso Bianchi ad8b5a73fe Hover pre-highlight: show what a click would take, before it is taken
Third and last piece of the selection model. The other two turned out to be
built already — the rubber band is pick_bodies_in_rectangle and vertex picking
is SolidSel::Vertex with its camera-facing square, both live — so this closes
what the issue actually still described.

Vertex beats edge beats face is a rule the user cannot see until after they have
committed to a click. Showing the outcome under the pointer is what makes the
precedence learnable at all, and is the charter's L5 read honestly: one click,
one visible change means the change has to be predictable BEFORE the click, not
only explicable after it.

The resolution is now one function, resolve_solid_pick, const and writing only
into its out-parameter. The click applies it and then runs its escalation
unchanged; the hover applies nothing. Split this way the promise cannot drift
from the act — a second implementation of "what is under the cursor" would
eventually disagree with the first, and the disagreement would look like a
picking bug rather than a duplication one.

Rendering is likewise one function called twice. The pre-highlight draws first
so the committed selection paints over it, and is suppressed entirely when the
two are the same thing: two coats of the same colour reads as a rendering fault,
and a promise about a click that would change nothing is not worth making. It is
desaturated toward white rather than given its own hue — a distinct colour would
read as a distinct KIND of selection, when it is the same selection one moment
earlier.

Two things that would have been silent bugs. The edge ribbon and the vertex
square render with GL_BLEND off, so an alpha below 1 there is ignored; those two
are quietened by a muted rgb and only the blended face fill takes the alpha
multiplier. And the pre-highlight is cleared in clear_solid_selection, because it
names a face by an index into a shape a recompute has just rebuilt — left behind,
it would keep glowing on whatever now sits at that index, a real entity but not
the one meant.

Hover runs on plain motion only, with no button down and no band running: during
a drag the pointer is doing something else and a promise about clicking would be
a lie. It returns false so the event still reaches the camera — it asks for a
repaint, it does not consume the gesture.

Tommaso Bianchi e6a14b39c9 Rib: the thickness gets its handle, so the whole tool is draggable
Rib's depth already reused the Extrude arrow. Its thickness could not: the arrow
points along the plane normal, and thickness is an offset either side of the rib
line, IN the plane. Different direction, different handle.

Two square handles at mid ± perp·half, plus the slab's actual footprint drawn as
a thin closed rectangle — the footprint matters more than the dots, because what
a rib thickness means is how wide that slab lands on the body, and until now
there was no way to see it before committing.

A drag on either handle sets the FULL thickness, twice the perpendicular distance
from the line, because the slab is centred on the line and the handle sits at
half. Both handles behave identically for the same reason, so they share one
colour rather than pretending to be two different actions.

A zero-length line has no direction to grow a slab perpendicular to, so the
shared rib_frame() helper returns false and render and drag both draw nothing
rather than dividing by zero. Non-Line entities clear the gizmo instead of
guessing: the kernel is line-only and a gizmo that guesses would be lying about
what Confirm will build.

Unlike the helix callback this one goes through refresh_preview(), because Rib
builds a real solid ghost that has to rebuild. The helix has none and skips it
deliberately.

Both gizmos coexist and resolve the sketch and entity the same way, so the depth
arrow and the thickness handles can never disagree about which line they are on.

Tommaso Bianchi e8306a6e9a Helix: draw the thing, then let the numbers be dragged
grep -i helix over the viewport code returned nothing at all. The tool was four
coupled numbers and a Confirm button — you typed radius, pitch, height and taper
blind and pressed OK to find out what you had made. So this is not only the
charter's L2 failure; the tool had no visible state whatsoever while it was open.

Adds a plane-anchored helix gizmo built on the datum-plane gizmo as its template,
being the closest existing thing: also plane-anchored, also driven by a card while
the sketch tool is inactive, also a render / hit-test / drag triad.

It draws the live curve and the axis, and puts a handle on each of the three
lengths: radius on the base circle, height at the top of the axis, pitch at the
end of the first turn — which is exactly where one pitch of rise lands, so the
handle means what it is standing on. Below one full turn the pitch handle moves
to the end of the curve rather than floating off a curve that does not exist yet.

Taper and handedness stay on the card. One is a shape modifier and the other a
flag; L2 governs numbers you can point at.

A drag reports the whole (radius, pitch, height) triple rather than one value,
because pitch and height are coupled through the turn count and writing one alone
would redraw a stale curve. The callback re-feeds the gizmo directly instead of
going through refresh_preview(), since Helix takes the produces-no-solid early
return and refresh_preview would rewrite the status line on every mouse move.

REVIEW CATCH, fixed here: the first cut read taper as a fraction of the radius
consumed over the turn count. It is an ANGLE IN DEGREES — helix_spine() builds a
Geom_ConicalSurface of half-angle taper and takes the top radius as R+H*tan(taper),
growing with the height risen. The wrong reading drew a preview that collapsed to
a point for any non-zero taper while the committed feature was perfectly fine. A
preview that lies is worse than no preview, which is what this commit replaced.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 3eec65f2bd CoordSys: pick a body first, x-ray the rest
In an assembly the face you want for a mate connector is nearly always behind
another body, and a click only ever returns the frontmost hit. Hiding the
occluder from the Parts list works but means leaving the tool mid-pick.

The CoordSys card now carries a Body chooser. Pick a body and every other one
drops to 0.25 alpha AND stops catching clicks, so the wanted face is both
visible and reachable in one gesture. "(all)" restores normal picking.

Deliberately NOT hit cycling: repeated-click cycling was removed from solid
picking as a charter L5/§10 violation (DesignSketchTool.cpp, "NO CYCLE"), and
re-introducing it here would make "click a face" a multi-click gesture again.

Mechanics: DesignSketchTool::set_pick_only_body() gates body_pickable(), which
every pick path already consults; DesignCanvas::set_xray_focus() drives both it
and the per-body alpha in reload(). The chooser stays a pick FILTER only --
coordsys_body still comes from the actual pick, so nothing in the kernel moves.

Body focus follows the CoordSys card: open_tool() reads it back from the combo
rather than clearing outright, because editing a CoordSys feature loads the card
(and its body) before open_tool runs.

Tommaso Bianchi 0a2faedc32 Design: draw the mate connector, so its verse and polarity are visible
A mate connector was visible only to a program. resolve_datum_coordsys had exactly ONE consumer
in the whole tree -- McpControl.cpp, the agent socket -- so the frame every mate is built on
could not be seen at all, and the two questions a connector has to answer on sight had no
answer in the viewport: which way does Z point (the VERSE), and which of the pair is anchored
versus about to move (the POLARITY).

The glyph is Onshape's proven core plus the part nobody ships. Disc for the XY plane, one gold
quadrant for the roll -- the only in-glyph answer to "where is X", which matters because
Fastened and Slider lock the clocking -- and a Z arrow drawn on +Z ONLY, never double-headed.
Polarity is carried by the head: a filled cone travels, an open collar receives. Onshape,
Fusion, Inventor and FreeCAD all draw both ends of a mate identically, which is why "which part
moves?" is a standing complaint; nothing here invents new semantics, it just stops hiding them.

Polarity is read from the committed Mate features, not only from the open card. A connector some
mate drives must read as driven whenever it is on screen, or the glyph tells the truth only while
a dialog happens to be open. The card, when open, still wins -- that is the live intent.

Judged on the rig rather than in a mock, which changed three decisions:

- Three RGB axis arms lose to one Z arrow. Rendered side by side (SNAPORCA_GLYPH=A selects the
  Onshape-style trio), the three heads are as large as the 22 px disc, they bury the quadrant, and
  at an oblique angle they pile into a smudge -- and the trio is indistinguishable from the move
  gizmo and the bed triad, which are already RGB arrow trios in this viewport.

- Depth off floats, depth on tears. With GL_DEPTH_TEST off, connectors on faces pointing AWAY from
  the camera drew their discs over the solid, so the part looked covered in frames that were on its
  back. Turning depth on fixed that and immediately z-fought: the disc is exactly coplanar with its
  face and came out a broken dotted arc. Depth ON plus a 0.7*upp lift along Z buys both, and scaling
  the lift by upp keeps it sub-pixel instead of opening a visible gap on zoom-in.

- Foreshortening degenerates an arrow into a dot when the axis points at the camera. It now draws a
  ring instead of silently vanishing, which is what a naive projection does.

Everything is sized in screen pixels via upp = 1/zoom, like every other gizmo here: a connector is
a symbol, not a part, so it must not shrink with the model.

Research and the empirical findings are written up in DESIGN_MATE_CONNECTORS.md section 8b;
rig images in artifacts/shots/g-0*.png, vendor reference glyphs in artifacts/glyphs/.

Not fixed here, and recorded rather than papered over: the quadrant collapses to a blob at a
grazing angle, which is exactly when the roll is hardest to read (F4); roll-undefined in red makes
the least important connector the loudest thing on screen (F5); and a true grazing view, a curved
face, and overlap with the move gizmo are still untested. Also surfaced while testing and unrelated
to drawing: add_mate accepted a mate between two connectors on the SAME body and duly transformed
the body relative to itself -- a concrete instance of the missing validation already filed as G6.

instead of a separate Sketch feature carrying rigid imported_regions — so the letters can
be constrained, trimmed and extruded like anything drawn by hand. The buttons and offer
actions arm Select first when in Sketch mode, since begin_sketch() does not run until a
tool is armed.

add_imported_regions() calls reset_autoedit(): without it the glyph contours entered the
draw-then-edit queue and opened a Length field on the first segment, which freezes the
canvas. Caught on the rig, not by reading.

No sketch open: unchanged — a new Sketch feature, still dropped on a picked face.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 fd1bc092d8 Design: slot Radius caption, keyboard offer, plane combo removal, mass props, docs
Mirror of snaporca ac85277bac..0e7cb3ec78 (six changes, applied as a patch to
DesignPanel.cpp rather than copied, so this fork's 30 permitted divergent lines survive
— parity re-checked afterwards: the five shared files are byte-identical, DesignCanvas.cpp
and DesignPanel.cpp differ by exactly 16 and 30 lines).

- The straight slot's inline field says Radius, which is what it sets. It stores the
  half-width and passed the typed number through unchanged, so 30 produced a 60 mm slot.
- The offer opens from the keyboard (Menu, Shift+F10), anchored on the viewport rather
  than wherever the pointer happens to be. The card hint names the new route.
- The sketch card's Plane combo is gone; the plane comes from the viewport. Also stops
  build_candidate collapsing a face plane to a base plane while editing.
- Mass properties and the dead Edit row are wired into the offer; DesignOffer.hpp is
  regenerated from tool_atlas.json, verified by re-running the generator and diffing.
- docs/rig_build_traps.md + scripts/rig-build.sh, which derives its fork identity from
  project() so it cannot be pointed at the other fork's image or volume.
- docs/design_tab.md refreshed (44 commits stale) + a PR description, with this fork's
  own merge-base and diff shape rather than snaporca's.

Built green in the deps container with the new script and verified on the rig: Menu and
Shift+F10 both open the offer at the viewport centre with the pointer parked off-canvas,
and the sketch card shows no Plane row.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 6e9910303b Design: a sketch takes its floating chrome with it when it ends
Confirming a sketch while an inline value field was open left the field behind. The
editor is a top-level frame, so it survived the session that owned it, and inline_busy
stayed set with it — on_mouse_impl then returned true at its first branch for every
later click and the viewport was simply dead. No refusal, no message: exactly the
"click the geometry, nothing happens" the pick bugs above it were mistaken for.

finish() and cancel() now call close_session_chrome(): dismiss the open field
(keep-as-drawn, the same contract the polyline terminators already use), drop the
queue of fields behind it, and clear the corner readout — which had the same defect
for the same reason, sitting on 336.8° over a committed sketch because nothing redraws
the HUD once the tool stops.

Verified on the rig on the exact reported sequence: line on XZ, Return to accept the
length, Confirm with the Angle field still open. The field goes, the sketch commits,
and the next click reaches the pick (pick trace shows down/up consumed) and selects
Sketch1.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 1addba6ea0 Design: editing a quote UPDATES its dimension instead of appending a rival to it
Type a new length into a sketch quote and the number changed while the geometry
sat still, with the solver dropping to "Conflicting constraints" — a broken
constraint state the user never asked for, arrived at by doing the one thing the
status line invited.

An experiment separated the two candidate causes. Same gesture, one variable:
a line committed WITH a driving length refused the edit and conflicted; a line
committed with none (Esc keeps it as drawn) accepted it and visibly shrank. So
the value was never the problem and the solver was not wrong — it was being
handed two contradicting constraints and correctly declining to choose.

The quote-edit path appended unconditionally:

    a.con = int(m_constraints.size());
    m_constraints.push_back(constraint_for(a));

Accepting the length at draw time creates Distance(P0,P1) = 64.9. Clicking the
quote later creates a SECOND Distance on the same two points asking for 30. Over
-constrained by construction. A line with no dimension yet only ever gets one
constraint, which is exactly why this looked intermittent rather than total.

upsert_constraint() finds an existing constraint with the same type and operands,
overwrites its value and returns its index; it appends only when there is none.
Operand order is ignored — a Distance from A to B is the same constraint as B to
A, and so is an Angle. Returning the index matters as much as the update: it
keeps the annotation's `con` pointing at the constraint that is actually live, so
the NEXT edit is an update too rather than reverting to appending after one good
round. upsert_dimension() applies the same rule to the visible quote, which had
been stacking labels reading different values on the same pixel, and keeps the
existing label position so a placed quote does not teleport.

set_dimension_value already did the right thing through a.con. The machinery
existed; these two call sites never consulted it.

Verified on :11 on the exact failing case — draw a line, Return to lock the
length, Confirm, double-click to re-open, click the line, type 30 into the quote:
the line shrinks, the quote reads 30.0 mm, one label not two, and the solver
stays at "3 degrees of freedom" with no conflict.

NOT included: record_dimension_constraint() has the same unconditional push_back
in all six of its branches. It belongs to the legacy Constrain mode with
different selection semantics and I could not exercise it, so it is flagged
rather than changed blind.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 a1fdb9f217 Design: double-click a sketch stroke to edit it — the gesture belongs on the geometry
Selecting a committed sketch line lit the right tree row and then told the user
to go and press Edit in the panel. That is the side-panel dependency this tab
exists to remove, and it made "selectable" true while "editable from the
geometry" stayed false.

on_edit_feature already does the whole job — re-open the entities in the sketch
UI with handles and live quotes — and was only ever reachable from a tree row.
A double-click on a committed stroke now calls it for that feature. Double-click
on empty space still fits the view, so nothing is taken away.

The stroke hit test is now one hit_display_sketch() shared by the click and the
double-click. Two copies of "what is under the pointer" drift, and a double-click
acting on a different entity than the click before it is a miserable thing to
chase. It also reports the entity index, which the tracer prints, so a pick that
lands on the wrong stroke can be seen rather than inferred.

Verified on :11 end to end: draw an open line, commit, double-click it. The
tracer prints "double-click -> edit sketch feature 0 (entity 0)", the panel
reads "Editing sketch — drag a handle or click a quote to edit", and a click
inside the session selects the line with endpoint handles, live quotes and
"1 selected — Delete removes them".

NOT delivered by this commit, found while verifying it: typing a new value into
a length quote is accepted and displayed but the geometry does not move and the
solver drops to "Conflicting constraints". Filed separately — it lives in the
constraint layer, not in selection, and nothing here touches it.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 9f2b2bc511 Design: sketch means a tool — the offer works inside a sketch, and the app stops
contradicting itself about the plane

Reported from the rig: pick a plane, press Sketch, and you are told to pick a
plane. The app prescribed a sequence and then refused to acknowledge that you
had followed it. Right-click did nothing, so there was no way to reach a
drawing tool except the toolbar this tab exists to retire.

act_sketch was two lines: set the mode, then print "Click a face or a reference
plane in the viewport, then a sketch tool" — unconditionally, without ever
asking whether a plane was already chosen. The plane was never lost; m_ref_plane
held it and begin_sketch captures it when the first tool is armed. The sentence
was simply false.

It now asks. sketch_plane_target() is a companion to sketch_plane_from_selection
that distinguishes "the user chose XZ" from "nothing chosen, falling back to XY"
— a distinction m_ref_plane cannot express on its own, being always a valid
index, so m_plane_picked carries it. With a target the readout names it and the
offer opens on the Create row; without one the old prompt stands, because then
it is true. The card above the status line was a local wxStaticText that nothing
could update, so it went on asking for a plane two inches from a line saying the
plane was chosen. It is a member now and the two are written together.

Right-click inside a sketch was excluded wholesale so that it could end a
polyline chain, abandon an anchor, exit a tool. That made every sketch row in
the atlas unreachable. The honest test is not which mode we are in but whether
the tool actually USED this right-click, and only the tool knows: on_mouse now
wraps on_mouse_impl and records that once, for every terminator, instead of
threading a flag through the twenty-odd sites that consume a RightDown. The
canvas read-and-clears it on the matching release.

Underneath all of it was one confusion — MODE versus SESSION — at four sites.
begin_sketch does not run until the first tool is armed, so is_sketching() is
false for exactly the interval between "press Sketch" and "pick a tool", which
is precisely when the drawing tools must be on offer. The keyboard learned this
once already (snaporca-0ud, whose comment states the rule) and I reintroduced it
in offer_selection_kind and again in show_offer_menu, where the offer built from
the FEATURE map and rendered nine rows that all refused the sketch selection.
Both now call sketch_map_applies(), so they cannot drift apart again. The
keyboard keeps its own split: its "sketching" gates undo and delete-last-entity,
which genuinely need a live session.

Verified on :11 against a fresh build. Pick XZ, press Sketch: card reads
"Drawing on XZ", status reads "Sketching on XZ — pick a tool", offer opens with
Create and Reference live and the six rows needing geometry greyed. Right-click
while idle opens the offer. Right-click as a terminator does NOT — the chain
ends, the line lands on XZ, its length field arms at 49.36 mm. That last one is
the regression the blanket exclusion was buying and the reason this shape of fix
was chosen over a mode test.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 5 bb403b82cf Design: left-drag sweeps a rubber band, and it takes the whole body
The pick cycle died two commits ago and left no viewport route to a whole
body at all: one click resolves vertex, edge or face, double-click is
already zoom-to-fit, and the only way to take a body was the Bodies list —
a geometry-first violation for as long as it stood. The rubber band is that
route.

Left-drag is the gesture, as asked. That button was orbit, so this canvas
now maps the mouse the way every CAD the user already knows does: left
selects, middle orbits, right pans. The change is a single flag on
GLCanvas3D set only by DesignCanvas, so Prepare and Preview keep the mouse
their users learned. Sketch mode inherits the same mapping, which is the
consistent reading — Design is one modality, not two.

Past an 8 px budget a press becomes a sweep, anchored at the ORIGINAL press
point rather than at the frame where the threshold was crossed, so the
first few pixels are not lost. Below the budget it is still a click and the
existing vertex/edge/face pick runs untouched. Sampling is the display
mesh's triangle vertices plus centroids — the same points the ray pick
tests, already in world coordinates — and the body with the most samples
inside wins, because the selection callback downstream carries one body.
Crossing semantics: touching selects. Enclosed-only for left-to-right and
crossing for right-to-left is the fuller CAD convention and is deferred,
not forgotten; with one selectable body it would have bought nothing.

Two defects fixed on the way, both found by exercising this:

Right-drag pans, and every pan ended by popping the offer over wherever the
camera stopped — the context menu arriving as the reward for moving the
view. The offer is now the release of a STATIONARY right-click, at the same
8 px budget the pick uses.

The selection handler wrote m_status twice. Only the later write ever
reached the screen, so the earlier block had been dead since it was
written, and its labels drifted out of step with the live ones unnoticed —
including a vertex fix I made this morning in the branch that never
renders. Deleted, with a note saying why, rather than left as two writers
for the next person to pick the wrong one.

Verified on :11 against a fresh build: click takes face 5; left-drag across
the body reports "selected (whole body)" with the whole solid tinted and
the camera unmoved; left-drag over empty space clears; stationary
right-click opens the offer; right-drag pans with no menu; middle-drag
orbits. Precedence re-checked after the deletion — face at 25 px from the
corner, vertex from 10 px in.

Tommaso Bianchi 33f97d259b Design: vertex picking — a click near a corner takes the corner
Completes the precedence Tommaso asked for: vertex, then edge, then face, all
from ONE click, all decided in screen pixels. Verified on :11 by sweeping into
the right corner of a plate — x=1250 and 1290 report "face 5 selected", x=1308,
1318 and 1323 report "vertex selected" — and the cyan marker lands exactly on
the corner in the render.

The vertex tolerance (11 px) is deliberately LARGER than the edge one (8 px). A
corner lies ON its edges, so equal radii would make vertices unreachable: every
click near one would resolve to the edge underneath. Bigger-wins-first is what
makes the smallest entity actually pickable.

Vertices come from the sampled edge polylines' endpoints rather than a separate
topology walk — every corner of a face is the end of one of its edges, so the
data was already in hand.

The highlight is a camera-facing square scaled by 1/zoom, the same trick the
edge ribbon uses, so it reads as a constant dot at any zoom. This is why vertex
picking did not ship with the previous commit: the Edge render path billboards
a ribbon and degenerates on a two-point input, and a selection you cannot see
is not a selection (L5). Better to add the primitive than to fake the feature.

DesignPanel now distinguishes level 4: a picked corner sets neither face nor
edge, because a corner is not its face, and the offer classifies it as
OfferSel::Vertex — where Plane, Axis and Coord Sys already accept it.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 4.8 b3e7d65cca Design: port the Orca-widget rebuild and the mouse-press fix from snaporca
Mirrors snaporca-cad a016dffb48 + 4b828c4798 so the two forks do not drift:

- Sidebar on Orca's widget set: ComboBox for all 25 pickers, StaticBox
  frames for the tool cards / feature tree / bodies list, framed double
  spins, and no stack of full-width action buttons (Prepare's left panel
  is parameters only).
- Toolbar: document group + undo/redo + mode-gated tools, commit far
  right, ordered via keyed slots, at Prepare's 40 px / 4 px geometry.
- Polygon options and a new Move/Rotate card (distance, axis, angle) in
  the sidebar instead of inline in the toolbar row.
- DesignSketchTool: stop consuming the LeftDown over a solid. Orca starts
  a rotate drag on the press, so swallowing it killed orbit/pan whenever a
  body was on screen. The pick now resolves on LeftUp within 4 px.

DesignSketchTool.{cpp,hpp} were byte-identical across the forks and are
copied verbatim. DesignPanel.cpp needed one hand-merge: mainline's
DropDown is Item-based (DropDown::Item{text,tip,icon}, DropDown(items&))
where snaporca passes parallel vectors, so feat_dropdown/ToolFlyout keep
the mainline form. Checked field-by-field against this fork's
Widgets/DropDown.hpp.

scripts/docker-iter-build.sh: mount the root CMakeLists.txt and cmake/
rather than inheriting the baked copies, which silently drops the
SLIC3R_CAD gate, and stop defaulting to snaporca's build volume - sharing
it made the two forks overwrite each other's cache and binary.

NOT COMPILED. This fork needs Eigen 5.0.1 (find_package(Eigen3 5.0.1
REQUIRED)) while the available snaporca-deps image supplies 3.3, so it
needs its own deps build to verify. The behaviour above was verified only
on the snaporca side.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 4.8 8d529ad413 Size the Design move/rotate gizmo from the body, like Orca's Prepare gizmos
The Design gizmo already had both move arrows and rotation rings, but drew them
at a fixed 70 px arm regardless of the body: on a 40 mm cube everything
collapsed into a ~100 px tangle buried inside the solid, so the rings were
effectively invisible and the tool read as "move only, no rotate".

Orca's Prepare gizmos size themselves from the selection's bounding sphere
(GLGizmoRotate3D: m_radius = Offset + sphere radius) so the handles always clear
the object. Same rule here: DesignPanel passes the body's bounding-sphere radius
(scale-aware) into the gizmo, and move_gizmo_arm() returns
max(70 px, 1.25 * radius) — the screen-space floor keeps it grabbable on a tiny
body or when zoomed far out. Ring radius and BOTH hit-tests derive from that one
helper, so picking cannot drift from what is drawn.

Verified on a 40 mm cube: rings now encircle the body, arrow drag moves with a
live mm readout, ring drag rotates live.

  Left-panel "Section View" button or X toggles it; PageUp/PageDown move the

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 4.8 5a005d4728 Design: in-canvas gizmos for Draft/Cut + operand highlight for Boolean/Sweep/Loft
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).

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 4.8 8cbf5b393b Design: Measure-style dimension labels (+ projection fix), New Design, tree auto-fit, i18n pin, UX
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.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 4.8 6e11cfc49b Design: Measure-style dimension labels + restore English-only pin + UX consistency
Dimensions (uniform with Prepare/Preview):
- Repurpose DesignSketchTool::draw_text -> new draw_dim_label that renders each
  sketch dimension as the exact Prepare "Measure" gizmo label: white ImGui text
  in a translucent-white box, positioned via the existing world_to_screen_px
  projection inside the active ImGui frame. All 29 label call sites convert with
  no churn; the bespoke Hershey vector font is retired.
- dim_text appends mm/in on linear dims (angles keep the degree sign).
- Placed-dimension leaders simplified to a single point-to-point line + arrows in
  a neutral colour (no extension lines), matching the Measure look.

i18n (Design tab pinned English, per the UX contract):
- Restore the lost "#undef _L / #define _L(s) wxString::FromUTF8(s)" override atop
  DesignPanel.cpp so one lever de-translates the whole tab, ending the half-EN/IT
  state. Wrap all ~54 dropdown options in _L so the single lever governs them.
- feature_type_name left untranslated (it feeds the MCP JSON, machine-facing).

UX consistency:
- Remove the per-card Confirm/Cancel buttons from the Value card; the single ribbon
  action bar now owns value confirm/cancel via an m_value_cont guard in
  tool_confirm/tool_cancel (one confirm surface, per contract).
- Unify the eight divergent "needs a body" status messages to one template.

Both forks; DesignSketchTool.{cpp,hpp} byte-identical across forks. Built clean.

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.

Tommaso BianchiandClaude Opus 4.8 0f4060c0a9 Orca-Cad: port SnapOrca Design (parametric CAD tab) onto mainline OrcaSlicer
Grafts the sketch-first CAD environment from snaporca-cad onto the mainline
OrcaSlicer/OrcaSlicer base (vs snaporca's Snapmaker/OrcaSlicer base):
- 133 new files: CadDocument/SketchEngine/GeometryEngine/SketchConstraints/
  SketchSolver/SketchInference/ThreadStandards + vendored libslvs solver;
  DesignPanel/DesignCanvas/DesignSketchTool/SketchInlineEditor GUI; GLGizmo
  Primitive/Sketch; 75 design icons; Catch2 tests.
- Integration hooks ported to mainline's diverged versions: Design tab in
  MainFrame, embedded design viewport + sketch overlay + per-canvas chrome
  suppression in GLCanvas3D/PartPlate, gizmo registration, Plater accessors,
  CMake wiring (libslvs subdir, CAD sources, OCCT ModelingAlgorithms=ON).

Structural integration complete; build verification pending.
