Holes and radii need sizes on the drawing as well as the overall extents. Select
circles or arcs, right-click and choose Add Radius Dimension or Add Diameter
Dimension. The value is measured live from the curve, found by its entity ID, so
it follows edits; only the leader angle and label offset are saved. A radius on
an arc stays on its sweep, and labels are kept clear of the curve and center.

Extension lines started at the extents' corners, which float in empty space on
angled or irregular parts. They now run from the dimension line toward the part
until they first meet the profile offset by a fixed screen gap, so they reach
the feature they measure without touching it at any angle.

Shops need a part's overall size on the drawing while converting it. Width and
height are measured live from the geometry that will be cut, so they follow
filters, exclusions, simplifying, breakoffs and tabbed cutouts instead of going
stale. Only the placement is saved; dimensions never touch the program.

Limits are plain coordinates, so moving a cut-off left the lines trimmed
to it stopping where it used to be. A drag now takes along perpendicular
lines with a limit or gap edge on its center, extending or trimming them
to keep meeting it.

Customers and design tools hand over SVGs, and getting them in meant a
trip through another CAD tool. CadImporter now reads them like any other
drawing, and plates, programs and converter entities can be written out.
An SVG's numbers are not drawing units, so import converts to the nest's
units and never guesses: only an absolute width or height counts as a
stated size, since px means 1/96 in to browsers but 1/72 in to
Illustrator. Without one the desktop asks, showing the size each choice
gives, and headless callers must pass the scale or the import fails.

Small features got leads that ignored their shape: full 0.15 leads at a
shallow angle along letter strokes, stubs at the pierce zone's edge in
round holes that could be pierced in the middle, and a lead aimed at a
letter's far pole that ran longer than configured.
Plan Cutting now limits a lead to the feature's depth at its entry, where
a second wall becomes as near. The pierce-zone fallback goes there first
and otherwise aims beside the entry rather than at the whole cutout's
pole. Pinned contours keep their leads, and wide cutouts are unchanged.
Centred pierces exposed the line/circle tangent test: its absolute
discriminant tolerance called a radial line through a hole under about
0.056 radius tangent, reporting a false contact at the centre. Tangent
now also requires the line to stay at the rim, which keeps true grazes
as they were.

Edits in the Cutting Parameters dialog only reached user settings, while a
plate's stored parameters took priority, so a change was lost on any
planned plate unless Apply succeeded. User settings now win; a plate's own
are the fallback when none are saved or readable.
WinForms tests saved to the real user-settings.json, and with user settings
winning a test's lead-ins would feed real planning, so they now use a temp
file and skip the legacy settings carry-over.

Roslyn Bridge flagged these as copy-paste clusters; each pair now shares
one implementation so a fix lands everywhere at once:
- Shape.OffsetInward/OffsetOutward differed only in the target winding.
- BestFitFinder kept its own copy of SpatialQuery's arc-extreme points.
- SplitDrawingForm rebuilt DrawingSplitter's clip-region grid for preview.
- GeometryOptimizer's collinear/coradial finders (one misspelled
GetCoradialArs) become one generic FindRelated.
- Five settings files repeated the write-with-retry loop, and two also
repeated the unit parser and unreadable-file filter (SettingsFile).
- ClampsForm and SupportGridForm repeated their row/box builders.
- Vertical/HorizontalRemnantComparer share a RemnantComparer base.
Behavior is unchanged except that Engine/NestStorage settings loads now
also tolerate NotSupported/Security exceptions, matching the other
settings files' never-throw contract.

Trim refused the piece between two crossing cut-offs because a cut-off had
one start and one end, so a line could not be stopped short around a pocket
of parts without deleting it and drawing two. A cut-off now carries Gaps,
stretches between its limits left uncut: segment generation excludes them
like parts, so the line splits into segments that each take their own place
in the cut sequence. Trimming a middle piece adds a gap from one crossing
centre to the other (merged with any it touches), Extend near a gap's edge
closes it, and Swap Through-Cut refuses a junction a gap touches rather
than guess which side of the gap should run through.
Every reader of the limits treats a gap as uncut, so nothing waits for,
warns about or credits a cut that never happens: segment spans stop at a
gap, the cutting dependencies skip a part inside one, the clamp check
ignores a clamp inside one, the cutting-state and overlap stamps go stale
when gaps change, and a gapped line is never full span for the expected
remnant or automatic cut-offs. Gaps persist as an optional gaps array;
older versions ignore it and would cut straight through.

Fixes to the cut planner kept reopening nests fixed earlier. The budget
counts expansions, so outcomes repeat, but the corpus only ranked the
outcome and could not show a plate passing just inside its budget, the
kind a reordered search tips into NoSolutionWithinBudget. Each plate now
reports the share of its budget its strict search spent, and the run
ends with the plates at 80% or more, to compare with master's run.
part-order and entries reorder the search on every plate, so naming
either in OPENNEST_PROBLEM_NESTS_CHECKS now plans every nest instead of
only those tagged with it.

Capture had grown to one 120-line method mixing plate validation, part
placement counting and drawing reconciliation, with a local function
holding the ID state. Separate those steps and move ID assignment into a
small registry so each rule can be read on its own. Validation order and
the snapshot are unchanged.

A plate of tags with arc-outline digits found no plan, although each
cutout had a clear entry. Eroded pierces were offered only when no
configured lead fit, so a letter with one fitting lead on the wrong
side stayed stuck with it, and an uncertain lead check skipped erosion
altogether. Recovery also spent its allowance on the outside entries
and accepted the first it reached, leaving a part on a side the next
rapid had to cross it from.
Count uncertain leads as no fit. Give recovery a last, separately
funded try that adds eroded pierces for the outside entries ranked
ahead of the first reached, and hold back routes that end facing away
from the next cut until then. Drop a lead that touches only in the
whole emission, where rounding moves it, rather than rebuilding the
same chain. Plans reached from their best entry keep their entries.

FillItem_WithClampZones has flipped between two digests because each was
correct for the machine that pinned it. PairFiller sized its parallel
batches from Environment.ProcessorCount, and a batch shares the best count
and work area from before it, so core count decides which candidates are
tried. With 10+ logical processors candidate 9 runs before the area shrinks
and its 46-part layout wins for every comparer (9BF5FC7FC47364A9); with 8 or
fewer the area has shrunk, it can only reach 45, and Fill/Strip and Vertical
Remnant settle on different 45-part ties. 40 of the parts are kept either
way. So the same nest differed between shop PCs, and CI failed whenever the
digests were pinned on a 12-thread desktop.
Fix the batch at 8, which keeps the pins CI has always produced. Also claim
GridDedup keys in candidate order before the parallel loop: the claim was a
race inside a batch, seen as one candidate returning 42 parts and then 33
in the same process.

The drawing library tests relied on DataGridView picking a current row by
itself when the page is populated. It only does that when the first row is
already laid out as displayed, which the hosted Windows runner does not
guarantee. Without a current row SelectedRecord() is null, Add/Edit return
silently, and the test fails later:
- run 41057280460: EditSettings_SavesCutFirstAsANewRevision_AndTheAddAppliesIt
"Timed out waiting for the reloaded page."
- run 40312036013: MismatchWarning_IsShownBeforeTheAdd_AndCancelLeavesTheNestAlone
expected 2 messages, got 0.
Make the first row current explicitly after each page load (and after the
edit reload that precedes an Add), and make Run() rethrow a faulted task so
a failed step reports its own error rather than a 15 s timeout.

On a plate with clamps, MaterialsTooClose measured gaps on polygons faceted
at 0.001, which understate an arc gap by more than the 0.0005 slack. A pair
interlocked exactly at the spacing read as too close, so FillGroup discarded
every copy and the fill silently placed nothing. Confirm the gap on
NativeContours, as the layout check and pre-post review already do.

A manual cut-off ran the full sheet even when another cut-off crossed it,
leaving a Trim/Extend pass to clean up what Automatic Scrap Cutoffs does
on its own. New lines now run from their start edge, set by the cut
direction, and stop at the first crossing line. Tab switches to full
length for the lines that should run through, and the choice lasts until
the nest is closed.

Mild steel splits into CR, HR and HR P&O, stainless into 304 and 316,
and aluminum into 5052 and 6061, so no thickness carries a grade it is
not sold in. Gauge thicknesses use MaterialLedger's decimals, which
also corrects stainless gauges that used carbon-steel values.
Every thickness gets a 60 degree line lead-in (0.15", longer from
1/4" up) and a 0.1" lead-out, with no lead-out on inside cuts, a 0.75
cut-off overtravel and every catalog plate size up to 72x144.

0719476 re-pinned the Fill, Strip and Vertical Remnant clamp-zone
characterization digests to 9BF5FC7FC47364A9, but that layout never
reproduced: CI and local Linux runs at that commit and since give the
previous digests unchanged, so Cross-platform tests has failed on every
push since. Clamp clearance defaults to the bottom edge spacing, which
these plates already used, so their layouts were never expected to move.
Checked the produced layouts before restoring them: all four strategies
place 40 parts inside the work area with no NestLayoutCheck violations
against the clamp clearance.
Auto Nest nests the remaining quantities on sheets like the shown plate
with the saved engine selection (plug-ins loaded as in the desktop app),
solving off the UI thread with shared progress text in the status bar.
The button becomes Stop, which discards the whole proposal; Open is
refused while it runs. A refused result changes nothing and says why.
--auto-nest runs it on the opened nest before --snapshot renders, and
the snapshot now writes the status line to <png>.txt for headless checks.
AutoNestJob builds the desktop dialog's default job, each drawing's
remaining quantity (cut-offs excluded) on stock like a template plate,
and commits a NestPipeline result only when it is valid, keepable and
places something, onto the nest's empty plates first. RefusalReason
names why nothing was committed instead of NestRenest's release-flow
note.
The engine selection and the whole-job progress adapter use only Engine
and Data, so they move into the toolkit-neutral library for the Avalonia
front end to share. The namespace stays OpenNest.Forms, so WinForms
callers are unchanged.
Linux tests now cover the adapter's stage routing, one-based plate
numbers and descriptions, and the fill-strategy mapping; the saved
selection is left out because it reads and writes the real per-user file.
Adds the Edit a plate by hand, Cut order and simulation and Nest settings
pages, the machine's Outside/Inside Cuts tabs, the Arc lead-in sweep, and
a recaptured Edit Drawing dialog.

Machine Configuration held one lead-in and lead-out per thickness and
applied it to every contour. Each thickness now has Outside Cuts and
Inside Cuts tabs; inside cuts follow the outside leads until "Same as
outside cuts" is cleared, and configurations without inside leads keep
applying one pair to both.
The lead type lists, per-type fields and preview from Cutting Settings
are now a reusable LeadsEditor control that both dialogs use. The
machine tabs hide what the configuration cannot hold: the arc sweep,
the clean-hole kerf (taken from the thickness) and Line + Line.

New installs now start with a generic fiber laser: mild steel, 304
stainless and 5052 aluminum, gauge-named thicknesses, fiber-sized
kerfs and arc lead-ins, and no lead-out. It has its own id, so

checks that the shipped values grow sensibly with thickness.

Document and Undo/ (ChangeScope, NestFingerprint, NestUndoState) use
only Core, Data, IO and Engine, so they move into the toolkit-neutral
library both desktop front ends share. Namespaces are unchanged, so the
WinForms app compiles as before; it keeps using the internal scope
factories and fingerprint through InternalsVisibleTo.
The scope, fingerprint and SaveAs/save-point rules now have Linux tests
in OpenNest.Desktop.Tests; before, only the Windows-only WinForms suite
covered them.
A clamp rail can now carry its own Clearance, the gap parts keep from
every clamp footprint, independent of part spacing. Unset, it keeps the
sheet's bottom edge spacing as before. Clamp blocks drawn under the
sheet can use close to zero so the laser only stays off them.
Plate.ClampClearance and NestPlateStock.ClampClearance resolve it once;
the engines, interactive fill/pack/push, the layout check, Expander walls
and automatic cut-off placement all read it. The interactive push now
holds clamps at their square clearance keep-out (the layout check's
shape) instead of the part spacing, so parts no longer tuck into its
corners; the clamped fill characterization digests are re-pinned after
checking the new layouts validate.
Persisted as an optional `clearance` on the .nest clamp rail and the
machine clamp settings; edited in Nest > Clamps and the machine's
Clamps tab.

The Help menu's F1 shortcut took the key before the plate view, so F1

When a part's outline is open (a tab gap, say), cut-off trimming falls back
to a convex hull. That hull still included lead-in/lead-out points, so it ran
from the lead's pierce point back to the part and stopped cut-offs far short
of the material. Cutting through a lead is harmless, so the hull now uses the
material contour only, as the closed-outline path already did.

Operators could only drag or delete a cut-off, so changing which line runs
through a junction (e.g. letting a vertical split the sheet to keep a whole
remnant beyond it) meant deleting and re-adding lines. Trim/Extend edits the
existing start/end limits instead, so no file-format or planner change is
needed: trims stop on the crossing line's centre, extends run to the next
crossing or the sheet edge, and Swap Through-Cut (right-click a junction)
does both at once, trimming the through line's far side because only the
origin-side edge is certain. Edits undo as one step and re-place the changed
segments with PlateSequencing.PlaceCutOffs so a new separator is cut last.

Regenerating a cut-off into more segments than were saved inserted each
segment at its old index, pushing later parts and cut-offs down; a reloaded
nest could cut its sheet separator before parts it splits off. Segments now
go after the parts saved before them, so a changed segment count never shifts
anything else. Files record every segment's place, and an older file's
sheet-separating cut-off loads last.

Plan Cutting spent most of its time on work that never changed the outcome:
many-holed parts paid quadratic shape-pair and ring-containment costs before
any search, every plate was captured twice, and failing plates burned their
whole budget in exhaustive fallback passes that never found a plan on 127
production plates.
- OverlapMaterial: skip native shape pairs whose bounds are clear by more
than the query allowance; gate polygon touch and winding tests on vertex
bounds.
- LeadMaterialSnapshot: gate ring enclosure tests on ring extents when
finding the perimeter and rejecting nested cutouts.
- CuttingPlanBatch: capture each plate once; the kept-order retry derives
from the same capture through CuttingPlanSnapshot.WithPreservedOrder.
- JointCuttingPlanSearch: end the kept-order full pass and the sequence-free
recovery and full passes after FallbackStalls (2) stalls' worth of
expansions when programs are regenerated; plates with only fixed programs
keep the exhaustive search so a refusal stays genuine.
On 127 archive plates (lead-ins cleared, 35" scrap cut-offs) total time fell
from 164 s to 102 s with identical outcomes; the problem-nest corpus gives
the same status and expansion count on every plate.

An arc lead-in meeting a straight window edge tangentially has a double
root at its joint. Rounding split it into two contacts a few 1e-8 apart,
or dropped it so the exact ray fallback reported the joint as an
uncertain contact. Either refused a valid entry, so N26-27U's windows
lost most of their entries and the plate never planned.
Treat a contact within 1e-6 of a joint its boundary passes through as
the joint, and let the exact line fallback skip ray hits at contacts
already recorded. The pinned-hole test now expects the other hole's
nearest entry rather than the fallback both runs used to share.

Undo regenerates each restored plate's cut-offs, which removes the
cut-off parts first. A plate holding nothing but cut-offs became empty
for a moment, so the new-plate sentinel dropped a trailing plate while
the restore was still enumerating the plates, throwing "Collection was
modified". Regenerate inside a PlateManager batch so the sentinel only
settles once every plate is done.

Plan Cutting saved its settings only on a successful Apply, so a plate
that would not plan lost them. Each open then laid the machine's leads
back over the last parameters, and the cutting panel rebuilt parameters
from scratch, dropping kerf and the machine/material/thickness stamp.
Save the settings when the dialog is accepted, keep the panel's
unexposed fields, and only apply the machine's leads when the last
parameters were not already taken from that machine, material, grade
and thickness.

PlateFillService throws for a plate with a sheet outline, but the desktop
