The Shape Library, drawing library and drawing set preview each drew
parts their own way (hardcoded green fill, steel-blue fallback, black
outlines with gray etch). They now share a library style on ColorScheme
(background, fill, outline, etch and bend colors) that ignores drawing
colors, follows the active scheme (Dark gets a dark variant) and
round-trips through saved schemes, defaulting when absent. Nest part
colors are unchanged.

Replace the name list with a ListView of 96px thumbnails drawn by
Program.GetImage at each shape's preview defaults (or its first
configuration), labelled with the name and configuration count. The
left pane opens three tiles wide instead of half the window.

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.

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.

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

Zoomed out, small parts and short cut-off segments piled their ids on each
other. As the CAD converter numbers entities, an id now shows only once its
part is big enough on screen to hold it: a part must be as wide and tall as
the id's text, a cut-off segment as long as the id's disc.

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.

Cut-off lines are painted after the parts, so the dashed line ran straight
through each segment's id, which sits on the cut. Cut-off segment ids are now
held back from the parts pass and drawn after the lines, over a disc of the
plate's fill color.

Grids opened at their designer widths and jumped a moment later, because
GridStyle waited for the first paint with rows before measuring them.
Columns now measure their header and first 50 rows directly: at handle
creation when the rows are already there, otherwise in a call posted when
rows arrive, which runs after the filling code and before the repaint.

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.

Every segment of a cut-off is its own part of the one cut-off drawing, but
its sequence label was placed from the drawing's whole program, so all of a
cut-off's segments stacked their numbers on one point. The view culls parts
outside the visible area, so zooming changed which segment drew last and the
shown number appeared to change. Each segment is now labelled at the middle
of its own cutting moves.

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.

When every drawing in a set starts with the same words, as in
"4980 A111 PT01", the set preview's labels were all cut short to the
same "4980 A111 P…". The preview now drops the leading words all names
share, cutting only at a space, '-', '_' or '.' and never emptying a
name, and notes the dropped prefix above the drawings.

The set preview guessed row widths and settled the scale in four rounds,
which could stick at rows of minimum-width label cells and leave much of
a narrow pane empty. At a given scale, filling each tallest-first row as
far as the pane allows is the best row split, and the packed height only
grows with scale, so the layout now bisects for the largest scale that
fits. A 21-drawing set in a 400x590 pane goes from scale 1.14 with 345 px
used to 2.23 filling the height.

The CL-707 config now declares sections, sentence-case labels and ranges,
so its dialog matches the CI Fiber one instead of the generic PropertyGrid.
The sectioned editor gains what the CL-707 config needs: optional (nullable)
numbers behind an enable box, editable tables for lists of simple records,
and a text field that suggests values from a table column (Selected library).
"Lead-in arc line 2 feedrate" is relabeled "Lead-in arc feedrate", which is
what #127 drives.

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}.

Each zoom step rebuilt every part's display paths from its CNC program,
and each drag step rebuilt the moved parts, which dominates for parts
with hundreds of holes. LayoutPart now keeps its paths in the drawing's
program frame and only maps them to the view on a zoom or move,
rebuilding when IsDirty is set or the program, rotation or manual
lead-ins change. Also caches the label StringFormat.

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.

Unit suffixes are painted in a reserved right margin instead of being part

The set preview moves from its own window into a details pane beside
the list, as the Drawing Library has, with the set's notes below it.
It reads the highlighted set shortly after the selection settles and
caches drawings per revision. Parts are drawn as outlines without fill,
and the info lines sit above the fitted drawings instead of over them.

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

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.

Preview on the Sets tab (button and right-click menu) downloads each

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

ColorScheme.Default and LayoutPart kept single static pens, brushes and a
font that every plate view and drawing preview painted with. GDI+ objects
are not thread-safe, so two views painting at once on different UI threads
(parallel WinForms test collections) failed in PlateRenderer.DrawPlate with
"Object is currently in use elsewhere" and crashed the test host.
The scheme now builds its pens and brushes per thread and rebuilds them
after a color change; LayoutPart's selection, lead-in and label objects are
thread-static. A regression test paints previews on four threads at once.

Drawing Sets > More > Import BOM reads a BOM and its drawing folder,

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 >

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

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

The set editor gets History... for a saved set; the Sets tab keeps its
History button until the browser's buttons are rearranged.

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

Builds on the library's Edit Drawing (details as a new revision):

every active drawing and edits on double-click;

Starting the tool while it was open built the new action before the old

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

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.
