Staged cut-offs were appended after every part, so a kept order (the
"Keep the current part order" option, or the fallback after a free
search runs out of budget) always conflicted with any cut-off crossing
a part. PlateSequencing.PlaceCutOffs moves each new cut-off to just
before the first part it crosses, separators last, without moving
anything else; the panel applies it after staging.
The free search also learned "cut the cut-off first" only after a full
stall, re-planning the many-holed parts before it. A cut-off is a fixed
program that never gets harder to cut earlier, so a crossing approach
into a non-separating cut-off now teaches that rule at once. On the
reported 35-part plate this drops the plan from 23,930 expansions (over
the 20,000 budget) to 15,605.

The Clear Lead-ins & Cut-offs button stays enabled during planning.
Confirming cancels the running plan, clears once the cancellation lands
so the plates never change under the planner, then replans.

Lists every part in the cutting inspection panel's scope, including ones
with no finding, so an all-clear nest doesn't just look like an empty
grid. Selecting a part jumps to its first issue or zooms to it when clear.

The cut planner disabled "Add scrap cut-offs" along with every other
control while a plan ran, including the very first auto-started plan.
It now stays enabled; toggling it mid-plan cancels the run in progress
and restarts planning with the new setting.

Since 5.2 a locked program's own rapid crossing is a fixed-lead warning on an
UNVERIFIED plate, so it no longer makes the panel's "Can't apply" case. The
blocked plate now holds overlapping parts, a hard block, and the test checks
the same navigation and no-partial-Apply behaviour.

The outcome line sat mid-panel in coloured text and was easy to miss. It
now leads the panel in a tinted, outlined banner, and the existing
lead-in/cut-off alert uses the same style so the panel has one alert
look. The part-order search turns the banner bright orange because it is
the slow phase the operator waits on.

The proposal preview skipped the cut-off overlay: it carries cut-off parts but no
cut-off definitions, so planner cut-offs looked like thin black part outlines
instead of the orange-red dashes used everywhere else. The preview now draws each
cut-off part's own cutting moves in that style.
The same paint guard hid the validation overlay over a preview, so issue markers
for unverified plans were set but never drawn. The overlay now draws on proposals
too, with the marker's part numbers mapped to the preview's proposed order so the
right parts stay highlighted.

Plan Cutting findings dropped the checker's geometry, so selecting one could only
zoom to part extents, and overlap-blocked plates (no preview) did nothing at all.
Findings now keep the check's world-coordinate witness (overlap regions, rapid,
contacts); selecting a row draws it with the Validate Nest overlay, on the proposal
or a blocked plate's live sheet. The witness is excluded from finding equality so
repeated search rejections still collapse to one finding.
The side panel's scrolling report was a wall of text operators skipped. It is now
a colored outcome line, one line for the shown plate, and one remedy or marker
hint above the issue grid, with secondary detail moved to tooltips.
