The panel gains a Current plate only / All plates selector, shown when the
two scopes differ. Changing it takes the unapplied scrap cut-offs off,
cancels any running plan and replans. The toolbar button opens with the
scope last chosen there (default all plates); the Plate and Nest menu items
keep their fixed scopes.

Auto Nest leaves out ledger item codes already on other open server nests,
and save and post re-check a nest's codes before going on.
- Server: GET /api/nests/stock-item-codes?exclude= lists the codes on
non-deleted Draft, Quote and To Be Cut nests. Codes are stored in
nest_stock_codes (schema v14) at every archive write; the upgrade reads
each current archive once.
- Data: INestRepository.GetStockCodesInUseAsync, LedgerCodesInUse (5 s,
failures become an unknown answer), the pure LedgerCodeFilter for ledger
rows (reusable by release-time nesting) and LedgerCodeCheck for the
re-check.
- Desktop: the Auto Nest ledger summary counts "(N on other nests)" or says
other nests were not checked. Save, Save As and post open Ledger Stock
Changed when codes are taken: proceed after a per-attempt
acknowledgement, remove the codes (undoable), or cancel. A ledger that
cannot be read skips the check with a status note.

Add a Support Bed tab beside Clamps that edits the grid or slats new
nests assigned the machine receive. A machine without a bed shows the
legacy support-grid.json values; the first edit stores them on the
machine in its units.

- archived library drawings: say they can't be edited or released; no
front end can restore a library drawing yet
- library filter hint names the Show all materials checkbox
- undo labels Support Bed and Automatic Scrap Cutoffs match their menus
- display-outline posting hints name both Plate > Plan Cutting... and
--plan-cutting, since the console prints them too
- MaterialLedger options are saved per Windows user, not per machine
Clamps are physical fixtures that differ between machines, but one global
clamps.json served every machine, so a plasma table and a fiber laser could
not have different rails.
- MachineConfig.Clamps holds each machine's rail in the machine's units,
edited on a new Clamps tab in Tools > Machine Configuration.
- New and BOM import give a nest the rail of the machine they assign;
Nest > Clamps loads and saves the nest's machine's clamps. Each nest keeps
its own copy, so machine edits never move existing nests' clamps.
- At startup, while no machine has clamps, the legacy clamps.json (or the
server's shared copy) is copied once into the default or only machine;
with several machines and no default the user picks one.

Nest drawings can require no parts, but the CAD Converter's quantity
spinner had a minimum of 1, so Edit Drawings in Converter threw
ArgumentOutOfRangeException as soon as such a drawing was selected.
Lowering the minimum to 0 lets the converter load it and hand the
drawing back with its quantity still 0.

The nest's machine and its Nest Info fields were the last edits only the
fingerprint safety net could catch (and it misses most of them). Machine
is now one step, together with the support grid and cut-off settings the
machine brings. Nest Info is one step for what Undo can put back (units,
material, thickness, customer, notes and plate defaults); the name,
status, author and creation date stay as they are through Undo, so an
edit of only those records nothing.
The sheet strip only shows Auto Nest proposals; what it shows is
committed through Auto Nest, which is already recorded.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Drawing changes were unrecorded, so Undo skipped them or lumped them
into an anonymous "Change". Each is now one labelled step: Import
Drawings, Shape Library (menu and panel button), Drawing Library (what
the dialog added or re-quantified), Save to Drawing Library (the nest
keeps the drawing's new library link), Edit Drawings in the converter,
Drawing Properties, Delete Drawing and Clean Unused Drawings. Dropping a
drawing on a plate was already recorded as Add Part and is now tested.
The converter can change live programs while it loads, even when it is
cancelled; a cancel that did so now rolls the nest back to before the
converter opened instead of leaving those edits unrecorded.
Deleting a drawing threw when removing its parts emptied the trailing
plates, because the plate manager drops trailing empty plates while the
loop walked the live plate list; it walks a copy now.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Cutting edits were unrecorded, so Undo skipped them or folded them into
an anonymous "Change". Each is now one labelled step: Add Cut-Off, Move
Cut-Off (one step per drag), Automatic Cut-Offs, Auto Sequence (current
plate or all plates, only when the order changed), Set Sequence (per
click), Sequence by Path (the whole tool session; Backspace and Ctrl+Z
inside it still take back one line), Place Lead-In, Remove Lead-Ins (the
tool's menu, the plate and the nest commands), Cutting Parameters (an
edited lead-in panel when the tool closes), Plan Cutting and Clear
Lead-ins and Cut-offs.
Plan Cutting stages scrap cut-offs on the live plates before it plans,
so its scope opens with the staging and records only when the plan is
applied; closing without applying records nothing. Clearing applied work
is its own step and no longer warns that it cannot be undone.
Opening the lead-in tool used to give a plate without parameters the
defaults straight away; the plate now takes the tool's parameters with
its first lead-in, so opening and closing the tool changes nothing.
Undo no longer waits while the tool has a part picked: it ends the tool.

Plate and clamp changes went unrecorded, so Undo skipped them or lumped
them into an anonymous "Change". Each is now one labelled step: Edit
Plate (only on OK), Rotate Plate, Resize Plate, Set Nest Default Plate,
Clamps and Support Grid (applying to the nest; saving machine defaults
stays outside the history), Remove Clamp / Put Clamp Back from the
plate's clamp menu, and Add/Move/Delete Clamp in Edit Clamps.
Edit Plate used to copy an empty plate's settings into the nest defaults
even when the dialog was cancelled; that now happens only on OK, so a
cancelled dialog changes nothing.

Placement edits were only caught by the fingerprint safety net, so they
undid as an anonymous "Change" or folded into the next edit. Each now
records one labelled step: Fill (at the commit, so a stopped fill that
keeps nothing records nothing), Fill Area, Pattern Tile, Auto Nest (from
the kept proposal only; Make Nests tabs too), Clear Nest, Remove Empty
Plates and Center Parts. Clear Nest no longer warns that it cannot be
undone.
Pattern Tile onto a new plate created a plate beside the empty sentinel,
which the plate manager dropped at once, so the pattern landed on a
detached plate; it now fills the sentinel.
The undo tests share one harness that compares a text description of the
nest before an edit and after Undo.

Whole-nest snapshots make undo safe without a hand-written inverse per
operation: each recorded edit stores one NestSnapshot in the document's
history, and Undo/Redo read one back and swap it into the open window.
- Document.History is reset with the opened nest; Save and database
saves mark the save point instead of clearing it.
- EditNestForm.BeginChange opens a scope: nested scopes merge into the
outermost, Complete commits one entry, and leaving it incomplete rolls
a changed nest back. No-ops are detected by the scope's changed flag,
not by comparing bytes (copies are not byte-stable).
- RestoreNest shares the per-nest binding with the constructor and keeps
the Document, the nest's identity, the plate index, the viewport and
the selection. It ends the action, closes Cutting Inspection, side
panels and the remnant viewer, rebuilds the PlateManager, reapplies
the view's cut-off settings and recolours the drawings, because each
of those holds or derives from the old nest's objects.
- An edit no scope recorded (Phase 3 sites) is detected by a cheap
fingerprint and committed as its own "Change" entry before a scope,
Undo or Redo, so it is never silently discarded; DEBUG builds also
warn about it on idle.
- Edit > Undo/Redo name the next entry. Ctrl+Z/Ctrl+Y/Ctrl+Shift+Z go
to focused text editors first, then to an action's own step-back
(Sequence by Path), then to the nest. They wait for jobs, fills,
background saves and busy actions, but not for a plain selection.
- Recorded: delete, drag, arrow nudges (coalesced), rotate, align,
push, expand spacing, add part (drop and clone), cut, add and remove
plate.

The members group resumed layout only after the outer table had already

Typing customer, material, grade and thickness by hand let near-duplicate
spellings into the library, which then split drawings that should match.
The fields are now drop-downs of the values the library and the machine
material catalog already use, while still accepting new values; thicknesses
already used for the material are listed ahead of the standard gauges.
A library color could be set but never cleared back to the color scheme's,
so Automatic and Reset are added. The rotation start/end/step boxes gave no
sense of the range, so a dial shades it, ticks the angles the engines try
(via RotationPolicy) and lets either end be dragged.

The flat ten-row list squeezed the quadrant picker to 120x28 and gave no
hint of units or where the defaults are saved. Group the fields (General,
Plate Size, Quadrant, Spacing), lay the edge spacings out around a plate,
show in/mm suffixes, and convert the values when the units switch so a
48 in plate does not silently become 48 mm.
The footer says whether Save writes to this PC or the shared nest server,
and Save is disabled while the shared copy is read-only instead of
failing after the click.

The Rot Start, Rot End and Step columns showed the drawing's radian
constraints as-is, so users had to type 1.5708 for 90 degrees. The grid now
shows and accepts degrees; rows keep the radian values, so an unedited row
passes the drawing's limits to the engine without a conversion round trip.

Strip lines now stop at a full-length horizontal cut-off that clears the
parts instead of slicing the band beyond it. The desktop dialog and Plan
Cutting also propose their own horizontal separator when that band beats
the X tail (opt-in for API callers via KeepHorizontalRemnant); a kept X
tail beside the band becomes a corner piece whose separator stops there.

FillStrategyRegistry now holds a fixed, ordered list of the seven
built-in strategies (Pairs, Row, Column, RectBestFit, Extents, Linear,
TiltedRemnant, in their Order sequence) instead of reflecting over the
Engine assembly. LoadFrom and LoadPlugins are gone; nothing outside
tests called them, so outside IFillStrategy plug-ins were never loaded
by a shipped host and none are loaded now. IFillStrategy stays public.
The disabled set stays process-wide and keeps its Disable, Enable,
SetEnabled, Strategies, AllStrategies and DisabledNames behavior for the
Options form. DefaultPlateFiller still reads Strategies, so interactive
Fill, the fixed-strategy engines, Irregular's block catalog and private
plate fill, the cutout lattice fill and the brute-force runner all keep
honoring it.
PlateViewFillLifetimeTests drives fills through PlateView, which builds
its own filler, so a filler-level seam can't reach it. The registry gets
an internal UseForTesting hook that swaps the list until disposed, and
the WinForms test project can see Engine internals for it.

MaterialLedger's Release lets a hold go, so a Released hold no longer keeps
a sheet for the nest; only Proposed, Approved and AwaitingCloseout holds,
the statuses ML counts against free stock, are open. The Has Been Cut
note's link pointed at /Nests/{id}, which ML does not serve; its nest page
is /Nests/Details/{id}.

MaterialLedger's /api/stock/opennest now resolves an OpenNest material
and grade through ranked acceptance rules. The client reads the new
spec rank, family, grade and finish and the item rank; an older ledger
that sends none of them deserializes as rank 1 with no label.
LedgerStockMapper groups drops only by identical size and spec, keeps
the ledger's order in rows and in each row's ItemCodes, and orders rows
by rank. Auto Nest's Source column shows the row's grade and finish
("A1011 P&O"); substitutes (rank above 1) read "A1011 P&O for HR" in
amber, name the substitution in their tooltip and still load ticked.
The engine still sees no rank.

Server nests in Database mode get a read-only status bar label comparing their
open MaterialLedger holds with the sheets they cut, e.g. "Ledger: 2 of 4 held,
2 short". Nothing writes to the ledger and nothing waits on it.
- MaterialLedgerClient.GetHoldsAsync reads GET /api/stock/holds?openNestNestId=
with the closed LedgerHoldsResult set; unknown status strings are kept. The
request plumbing is shared with GetStockAsync.
- LedgerHoldSummary (OpenNest.Data) counts Proposed/Approved/Released/
AwaitingCloseout holds against the plate quantities, skipping the trailing
empty plate as /sheets does.
- NestHoldStatus refreshes on server open, after save, after storage or
Options changes and on label click; it never polls. The tooltip lists holds
in nest units. File-mode, unsaved and ledger-less nests show nothing.
- Setting Has Been Cut in Nest Info with holds still open shows a non-modal
note linking to {ledgerUrl}/Nests/{id}. Posting is not gated.

Auto Nest on MaterialLedger stock now records which inventory item each
physical sheet uses, so ML can hold exactly those items instead of matching
by size.
- Core: Plate.StockItemCodes (entry i = sheet i of Quantity; empty = uncoded).
Core invalidates it: a resize clears it (turning the sheet keeps it), a lower
Quantity truncates it, a nest material/grade/thickness change clears every
plate's, ClearAll clears it and new plates never copy it.
- Desktop Auto Nest: after a kept proposal is committed, LedgerStockAssignment
deals each ledger row's codes to its plates in Nest.Plates order (bundles
repeat their code; clamp-removal variants use their base row). Rejected,
discarded or cancelled proposals never reach it. NestPipelineCommit.PairWithStock
pairs committed plates with their solved stock; the engine stays ledger-free.
- Plate list tooltip: "Stock: CODE (location)"; locations are display-only.
- nest.json: optional plate stockItemCodes, omitted when empty, read leniently.
- /api/nests/{id}/sheets: new plates[] { index, width, length, quantity,
stockItemCodes }; sheets[] unchanged.

Auto Nest's Stock Options gets a Load from ledger button that reads the nest
material's free sheets and drops from MaterialLedger's API-key-protected
GET /api/stock/opennest. Ledger rows are request-local: the engine sees them as
ordinary NestPlateStock rows with ledger:{n} ids and finite quantities, and they
are never written to Nest.PlateOptions.
- OpenNest.Data/MaterialLedger: settings file, read-only client (X-Api-Key,
5 s timeout, closed LedgerStockResult set) and LedgerStockMapper (bundles and
sheets one row each, same-size drops grouped with ordered item codes, unknown
shapes and too-small items skipped, inch/mm conversion).
- Options: MaterialLedger URL and API key (DPAPI, CurrentUser) with Test.
- Auto Nest grid: Use, Qty and Source columns for every row; PlateOption gains
request-local Quantity and Id, which NestStockBuilder passes to the engine.
Ledger rows score by area; hand-typed costs stay saved.

With Nest after release ticked, Make Nests now minimizes the Drawing
Sets window and nests each group's built nest in its own main-window
tab, before it is saved, with Auto Nest's progress window and live plan
strip, one nest at a time in plan order. Stop there (or switching tabs)
stops the whole release, as the panel's Stop does; the layout is kept
by the same rules as the headless renest, without the Keep review.
After upload each tab is bound to its saved record instead of a second
tab opening; a tab whose nest was not saved is closed. The main window
stays in front, and the Drawing Sets window flashes its taskbar button
when a group failed or was refused or the release was not recorded.
NestRenest splits into CreateRequest and Keep so the solve runs off the
UI thread and the commit on it; AutoNestCommand's solve-with-progress
step is shared rather than copied.

The modal release dialog is replaced by ReleasePanel, docked beside the
Library and Sets tabs and shared by both. A double-click or Enter adds a
set at one kit or a library drawing on its own at the entered quantity;
adding one already listed adds to its quantity. Lines are edited in
place with a remove button, and the nests it will make preview live.
Each group now merges into a matching Draft nest by default: the only
one, or the most recently saved of several (chosen in the row); a draft
open in a tab blocks Make Nests instead of making a parallel nest.
Nest after release is remembered per user. Edit Set and Edit Drawing
move to their buttons and right-click menus.
The Drawing Sets window is now an unowned top-level window with its own
taskbar entry and remembered bounds, closed with the main window; a
release not yet made survives closing it, and Make Nests brings the
main window forward. ReleaseSetForm remains as a thin dialog host for
releasing from Nest > Add from Drawing Library.

Full circles now take InternalLeadIn/InternalLeadOut like every other
cutout; the ArcCircle lead settings and the cutting panel's Arc / Circle
tab are removed. Circle-specific geometry handling (radius clamp, angle
rounding, pierce zone) is unchanged.
Older nest files and desktop settings still load: their arcCircleLeadIn/
arcCircleLeadOut keys are ignored and no longer written, so re-planned
circles take the internal leads. Saved part programs are untouched.

The drawing library browser becomes DrawingLibraryView, a control. The Drawing
Sets window hosts it as its Library tab beside Sets and Releases, and File >

Drawing Sets > More > Import BOM reads a BOM and its drawing folder,
matches each drawing to the library by its D4 identity and geometry
(reuse, new revision, or new drawing) and opens the set editor with a
new set prefilled with the BOM quantities. Reading only queries the
library; Create Set lists the uploads and revisions and asks before
storing them, and the set is stored only by the editor's Save.
Parts with no material or thickness still import and are flagged for
Edit Drawing. DrawingPackage.GeometryKey compares geometry independent
of the fresh entity ids each DXF import assigns. In Database mode File >
Import BOM opens this flow instead of creating nests directly; File mode

The member grid shows one Material column (name, grade, thickness and
units, such as "Steel A36 0.25 in"), Qty and Note; Cut type appears only
when the set mixes cut types. Move Up/Down are gone: member order only

drawings by name), and the stored order is kept as it was. The dialog
opens at 1040 px instead of 1264, with the library pane unchanged and
still resizable.

The drawing sets window now has two tabs. Releases hosts the release list
(paging, nests, Undo Release, New Release) as a SetReleasesView control that
replaces SetReleasesForm. File > Releases stays as a shortcut that opens the
window on that tab. A set's Releases (Sets tab) and a library drawing's
Releases (Drawing Library) open the tab filtered to it, with the filter shown
above the list and Clear Filter to list every release. Releases re-reads its
page whenever the tab is shown again, so a release made on Sets appears.
The set editor gets History... for a saved set; the Sets tab keeps its
History button until the browser's buttons are rearranged.

The release dialog now reads as a sentence ("Release set 'X' ×N") and
previews what Make Nests will do ("Creates 2 nests: ..."), with refused
materials counted and Fix Drawings reachable without selecting them.
An Options toggle holds the Release ticks, the Nest column and Include
archived drawings; collapsed, an option stays shown while it differs
from its default, and the Nest column shows whenever a Draft nest could
be merged into. Defaults, release, undo and retry are unchanged. The
Status column wraps so refusals are not cut off, and the retry status
reads "... Try Again records it; the nests are not made again."

Builds on the library's Edit Drawing (details as a new revision):
- warns before saving details that would duplicate another active library
drawing (D4), naming them; a failed lookup also asks;
- File > Drawing Library, a nest-less mode of the library browser that lists
every active drawing and edits on double-click;
- the set editor's member grid (double-click, right-click, button);
- the release dialog: Fix Drawings on a group refused for missing material or
thickness or duplicate names, so those refusals are no longer a dead end.

Edit Settings becomes Edit Drawing: name, customer, material, grade,
thickness and cut type are editable beside the nesting settings and
notes. Units stay read-only. The save is a metadata revision with the
same package, so nests keep the revision they hold, and the release
refusal for drawings without material or thickness now has a fix.
The assigned machine now drives the support grid, lead-ins and cut-offs, so
it should be visible without opening a menu. The status bar shows
"Machine: <name>" beside the material; left- or right-clicking it lists the
machines (the same list as Nest > Machine) above the label.

The release dialog's Add a set box was a pure type-ahead: it queried the
server only after typing paused, so opening it, or clicking its arrow with
nothing typed, showed an empty list. From Drawing Sets > Release that was
easy to miss, but New Release starts with nothing listed, and an empty
dropdown there reads as a missing server connection. The dialog now reads
the first active sets by name when it is shown, and again when the list is
opened while still empty, without dropping the list open on its own; typing
narrows it as before.

Releases could only be reached through one set or one library drawing, so
seeing what the shop released lately meant knowing which set to open first.
File > Releases shows every release on the server, newest first, naming what
each one had ("Kit A ×2, Kit B; Bracket ×4") in place of the per-set
revision and kits, with the same nest list and Undo Release. New Release
opens the release dialog empty, so a release can start from the list rather
than from a set; the plan builder now accepts no lines as an empty plan,
and the dialog's Release button stays disabled until a group is listed.
The list re-reads from the newest page once the dialog records a release.

Operators had to know that 16 ga is 0.0598 to enter a thickness. The Nest
Info and Save to Drawing Library thickness boxes now list steel gauges
(26-3 ga) and plate fractions (1/16"-2") with their decimals, and read a
typed gauge ("16ga", "#16"), any fraction ("3/32", "1-1/4") or a decimal.

After adding library drawings the operator had to close the dialog to see what
the nest now needed, and fixing a quantity meant leaving it for Edit Drawing
one part at a time. The new In This Nest tab lists the nest's drawings (cutoffs
excluded) with their library revision and required, nested and remaining
quantities, refreshes after each add, and edits Required in place.
An edit applies to the nest immediately, like an add, and the nest window
refreshes its drawing list when the dialog closes. Out-of-range values are
refused both when the cell is validated and when they are applied, because
DataGridView only validates on leaving the cell and EndEdit commits without it.

The Release dialog lists sets and drawings in one grid (with a type
column; Kits / Qty is a set's kits or a drawing's quantity, up to
100,000). Add Drawings... browses the library as the set editor's pane
does and stays open for several adds; listed drawings are greyed and
skipped, archived ones refused. The Drawings tab gains Release... (when
opened from a nest) to start a release from one drawing, and
Releases... so a release of drawings alone can still be found and
undone, since it belongs to no set's history.
docs/nest-storage.md describes the desktop flow, the `drawings` wire
field, null item setId, the drawingId query/probe and schema v11.

Plates with staged automatic scrap cut-offs could not be planned: P260810-01
plate 1 ran out of budget even at 10x effort, while the same plate plans
Ready in 3.6k expansions without the lines. A cut-off was one fixed program
cut whole before every part its line passes through, which dragged the tour
to the middle of the sheet and left the head at the far edge of the line;
and cutting every line first (the rejected alternative) weakens the sheet
and breaks the containment operators rely on when they fast-forward a
changed program.
A cut-off stays one definition, but Plate.RegenerateCutOffs now makes one
part per trimmed segment, each with its own place in the cut sequence.
CutOffSegments gives each segment the span of the nominal line it stands
for (end of the segment before it to start of the one after), and the
dependency rules of the planner and Part Sequencing use that span, so a
segment precedes only the parts beside it. The free-order search plans the
parts as if the segments were not there, so adding lines no longer changes
a plate's route, then CutOffInsertion slides each segment into the latest
gap before its first part where the rapid into its pierce and the rapid
from its end cross nothing cut before; only when one fits nowhere is the
plate searched with the segments among the parts. The search looks through
segments wherever they sit (entries face the next part, hole routes rank
from the pre-segment position, rapids are still checked from the segment's
end), so an applied plan replanned with the order kept replays Ready.
Segments saved out of consecutive order are recorded per segment in the
.nest file (`segments`); older readers load them consecutively.
P260810-01 plate 1 now plans Ready in 3639 expansions with every check
passing; rapid travel 1836 against 1547 without the lines. Plates without
cut-offs keep their PlanningCharacterizationTests digests, and the
problem-nest corpus has no plate below its baseline.

Releasing a set creates new nests or merges into draft ones, so tying the
set browser to the Drawing Library dialog (which needs an open nest) put it
behind a document it never uses. File > Drawing Sets... (Database mode)

released nests in their own tabs. The library dialog loses its Sets tab
but keeps Used in Sets and Add to Set on a drawing's menu.

The library browser showed only a grid and a notes box, so picking the right
part meant reading names and guessing at the shape, and the add controls sat in
a crowded row with the pager. The Drawings tab now splits into the list (with
its pager underneath) and a details pane: a geometry preview, the drawing's
name, customer, material, thickness, cutting and revision, its notes, and the
quantity with a prominent Add to Nest button.
The preview downloads the listed revision's package after the selection settles
for 150 ms, shares a request already loading that revision, and caches drawings
per revision for the dialog's lifetime. It colors the drawing from the record's
settings without advancing the nest's part palette. It is best-effort: any
failure shows "Preview unavailable" and the dialog keeps working, and the UI
update is marshalled explicitly because an STA thread without a WinForms
synchronization context resumes the await on the thread pool.

A release now ends in nests ready to cut rather than empty drafts, and a
merge no longer leaves the draft it cleared waiting for someone to run Auto
Nest. "Nest after release" (on by default) runs Auto Nest headless on every
released group, new or merged, before anything is uploaded.
NestRenest removes every plate and nests each drawing's required quantity
onto sheets from the nest's plate defaults and plate-size options. It keeps
a layout only when it is valid and keepable, so an invalid result never
reaches the server; the nest is saved without sheets and the operator is
told to run Auto Nest. Unplaced copies stay as remaining quantity, and the
status column lists sheets, utilization and what did not fit. A new Nesting
progress stage reports each group, and cancelling while nesting saves
nothing.

The release dialog now lists the sets to release instead of one set with a
multiplier. More are added by typing a name (the matching active sets fill
the list as you type) and each set has its own kit count. Its groups span
all the sets, and each group can make a new Draft nest or merge into a Draft
nest of the same material, grade and thickness, listed with its sheet count.
The status column says that a merge discards the draft's layout and that
Undo Release restores it.
A draft open in a tab of this desktop is refused, because nest tabs do not
track unsaved edits and the merge would leave them behind. The main window
tells the dialog which server nests are open.
The release history shows what each release did to each nest (created, or
merged from one revision to another, and what undo did) and gains Undo
Release. When nests changed after the release, it names them and offers to
undo the others, leaving those as they are.

A release can now cover several sets, each with its own kit count, so parts
from different kits share sheets. It can also merge into an existing draft
nest instead of always creating one. Schema v9 replaces the single-set
release tables: releases, their set lines, their nests (created or merged,
with the nest revision before and after) and the drawing quantities each set
added to each nest, so a kit stays traceable once kits share a nest. The v8
migration turns each existing release into one set line with created nests.
Undo runs on the server in one transaction: created nests are soft-deleted
and merged nests restored to their pre-merge revision, but only while each
still holds what the release wrote. Otherwise nothing changes and the
changed nests are listed, so the operator can skip them. A nest restored to
that revision counts as unchanged, which lets releases sharing a nest be
undone newest first.
The old /api/sets/{id}/releases and /api/nests/{id}/release routes are
replaced by /api/releases; no tagged desktop used them. The desktop still
releases one set at a time until the release dialog is reworked.

Adding drawings to a set meant opening the library dialog, then the set
editor, then a second copy of the library in pick mode, then backing out
again. The set editor now has the library as its left pane (unfiltered,
searchable, sortable, paged): select drawings and Add to Set, double-click
or press Enter. Members already in the set are greyed. The library
dialog's pick mode had no other caller and is removed.

Nest records gain a materialGrade field (server schema v8, blank for existing
rows) that is searched, sorted and versioned like the other metadata. The
Nest Info dialog gets a grade picker listing the machine configs' grades for
the chosen material; density survives only an unchanged name and grade. A
blank recorded grade keeps the archive's grade while the name matches, so
records saved before v8 do not lose it on open. Saved Nests shows a Grade column.
