BOM import was skipping BendDetectorRegistry.AutoDetect and
Bend.UpdateEtchEntities, so parts imported via BOM had no etch
or bend lines. Now matches the CadConverterForm import behavior.

- Try all valid best fit pairs instead of only the first when qty=2,
picking the best via IsBetterFill comparer (fixes suboptimal plate
selection during auto-nesting)
- Pre-compute best fits across all plate sizes once via
BestFitCache.ComputeForSizes instead of per-size GPU evaluation
- Early exit plate optimizer when all items fit (salvage < 100%)
- Trim slide offset sweep range to 50% overlap to reduce candidates
- Use actual geometry (ray-arc/ray-circle intersection) instead of
tessellated polygons for slide distance computation — eliminates
the massive line count from circle/arc tessellation
- Add RayArcDistance and RayCircleDistance to SpatialQuery
- Add PartGeometry.GetOffsetPerimeterEntities for non-tessellated
perimeter extraction
- Disable GPU slide computer (slower than CPU currently)
- Remove dead SelectBestFitPair virtual method and overrides
Reduces best fit computation from 7+ minutes to ~4 seconds for a
73x25" part with 30+ holes on a 48x96 plate.

BOM import now loads the nest template to populate plate size, part
spacing, edge spacing, and quadrant instead of hard-coding defaults.
Spacing columns are shown per material+thickness group on the Groups
tab so each combo can be adjusted independently.

The timer-based list update only removed depleted drawings but never
added them back when they became un-depleted (e.g., after deleting a
part from the plate).

Consolidated two stateless classes into one unified API: Dxf.Import(),
Dxf.GetGeometry(), Dxf.ExportPlate(), Dxf.ExportProgram(). Export
state moved into a private ExportContext. Removed bool+out pattern
from GetGeometry in favor of returning empty list on failure.

Spline import now uses SplineConverter (arc-based) so the configurable
precision parameter is obsolete. Removed the setting from the options
dialog, DxfImporter property, Settings files, and all callsites.
Hardcoded 200 as the sampling density for the intermediate point
evaluation that feeds into SplineConverter.

PlateListChanged handler was setting tabControl1.SelectedIndex = 0,
which forced the UI to the plates tab whenever a sentinel plate was
auto-created during part placement, disrupting the workflow.

Add LightGray separator lines between items to visually distinguish
adjacent quantity bars. Preserve scroll position and selection when
updating the drawing list by saving/restoring TopIndex and SelectedItem.
Use incremental item removal instead of full list rebuild when hiding
depleted drawings. Wrap list modifications in BeginUpdate/EndUpdate to
reduce flicker.

Removed add and remove plate buttons from the plate header panel.
The plate tab toolbar now has add/remove buttons with the remove
button state driven by PlateManager.CanRemoveCurrent. MainForm's
Plate > Remove menu item also syncs on plate change.

Replace all backward-compat wrapper calls on EditNestForm (LoadFirstPlate,
LoadLastPlate, LoadNextPlate, LoadPreviousPlate, IsFirstPlate, IsLastPlate,
EnsureSentinelPlate, CurrentPlateIndex, PlateCount) with direct access to
activeForm.PlateManager. Remove the now-unused wrapper methods and properties
from EditNestForm.

Replace direct plate collection event handlers, navigation methods, and
sentinel logic in EditNestForm with PlateManager delegation. Navigation
buttons, list selection, export, and plate removal now route through
PlateManager. Backward-compatible delegating wrappers kept for MainForm
until Task 7.

Drawings created by BomImportForm and MCP InputTools were missing color
assignments, causing them to render with default empty color instead of
the standard part color palette. Moved PartColors and GetNextColor() to
Drawing in Core so all consumers share one definition.

FileListControl loses focus when interacting with other controls on the
form, making arrow key navigation stop working. Intercept Up/Down at
the form level via ProcessCmdKey and forward to the file list.

- Strategies now promote results to IsOverallBest when they beat the
pipeline best, so the UI updates immediately on improvement rather
than waiting for each phase to complete
- PlateView only updates the main view on overall-best results, fixing
intermediate angle-sweep layouts leaking to the plate display
- Skip Row/Column strategies for rectangle parts (redundant with Linear)
- Intercept Escape key at MainForm level via ProcessCmdKey so it always
reaches the active PlateView regardless of focus state
- Restore keyboard focus to PlateView after fill progress form closes
- Remnant engines use SelectBestFitPair for orientation-aware pair
selection; DefaultNestEngine tries both landscape and portrait pairs
- RemnantFiller preserves more parts during topmost-part removal

Always keep a trailing empty plate so users can immediately place parts
without manually adding a plate. Auto-appends a new sentinel when parts
land on the last plate; trims excess trailing empties on removal.
Plate list now shows Parts count and Utilization % columns. Empty plates
are filtered from save and export. Sentinel updates are deferred via
BeginInvoke to avoid collection-modified exceptions and debounced to
prevent per-part overhead on bulk operations.

Adds a right-click "Delete" option on the drawings tab that removes the
selected drawing and all its placed parts from every plate.

Rebuild the dialog from a flat layout into grouped sections: engine
selector at top, Parts group with rotation columns and summary label,
Options group, collapsible Plate Optimizer with single-field size
parsing, and a clean button bar. Adds engine sync between dialog and
toolbar.

Add LoadPlateOptions() method to AutoNestForm that restores saved plate
options and salvage rate from the Nest. Call this method in
RunAutoNest_Click when opening the dialog if saved options exist, and save
settings back to Nest after dialog completion.

When "Optimize plate size" is enabled in AutoNestForm, NestSinglePlateAsync
calls PlateOptimizer.Optimize instead of engine.Nest, trying multiple plate
sizes and resizing the plate to the winning option.

Add colored left-edge bars (green=met, orange=short) to indicate nesting
quantity status. Replace blue selection highlight with a border outline.
Add toolbar toggle to hide fully nested drawings, auto-updating as parts
are placed or removed.

Enables a "move" workflow: clone parts to a new position, then
press Delete to remove the originals. Previously Delete just
cancelled the clone action.

ActionLeadIn.DisconnectEvents() nulled selectedLayoutPart without first
setting IsSelected = false, leaving the part permanently rendered in the
selection color (transparent blue) after switching actions.

ObservableList.Remove fired ItemRemoved even when the item wasn't in
the list, causing Plate to decrement Quantity.Nested for clone preview
parts that were never added — producing -1 counts. Delete in PlateView
now cancels ActionClone instead of trying to remove its preview parts.

Box constructor and derived properties (Right, Top, Center, Translate, Offset)
had Width and Length swapped — Length is X axis, Width is Y axis. Corrected
across Core geometry, plate bounding box, rectangle packing, fill algorithms,
tests, and UI renderers.
Added FillSpiral with center remnant detection and recursive FillBest on
the gap between the 4 spiral quadrants. RectFill.FillBest now compares
spiral+center vs full best-fit fairly. BestCombination returns a
CombinationResult record instead of out params.

- Add general-purpose ShowSidePanel/HideSidePanel to EditNestForm
- CuttingPanel uses Dock.Top layout so collapsible panels reflow
- Add loop selection step: click contour to lock before placing lead-in
- Stay on selected part after placing a lead-in
- Delete unused LeadInToolWindow

Remove CuttingParametersForm modal dialog. PlaceLeadIn_Click,
AssignLeadIns_Click, and AssignLeadInsAllPlates now initialize
cutting parameters from saved settings or defaults instead of
showing a dialog. The CuttingPanel tool window (in LeadInToolWindow)
replaces the form for interactive parameter editing.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add AutoTabMinSize and AutoTabMaxSize properties to enable automatic tab
assignment based on part size. Update CuttingParametersSerializer for
round-trip serialization and add tests.

ComputeNormal assumed CW winding for all contours. For CCW-wound cutouts,
line normals pointed to the material side instead of scrap, placing lead-ins
on the wrong side. Now accepts a winding parameter: lines flip the normal
for CCW winding, and arcs flip when arc direction differs from contour
winding (concave feature detection).

Switch gcodeEditor from TextBox to RichTextBox and colorize G-code
tokens: rapids (amber), linear cuts (green), arcs (blue), comments
(dim gray), and mode codes (purple).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Remove the Apply button and OnApplyClicked handler since the gcode
editor is now read-only. Add contour label comments (e.g. "; Hole 1
(CCW)") to the formatted gcode output so users can see which feature
each group of codes belongs to.

Only include cut-layer entities when building the ShapeProfile for lead-in
placement, instead of removing just scribe entities. This prevents display,
lead-in, and lead-out geometry from interfering with contour detection.

Material and thickness are properties of the nest (all plates share the
same material/gauge), not individual plates. This moves them to the Nest
class, removes them from Plate and PlateSettings, and updates the UI so
EditNestInfoForm has a material field while EditPlateForm no longer shows
thickness. The nest file format gains top-level thickness/material fields
with backward-compatible reading from PlateDefaults for old files.

Switch colorsList from CheckedListBox (which silently ignores owner
draw) to a plain ListBox with manual checkbox, color swatch, and hex
label rendering. Clone entities in ProgramEditorControl preview to
avoid mutating originals. Remove contour color application from
CadConverterForm. Fix struct null comparison warning in SplitDrawingForm.

The CAD converter and BOM import were stripping the leading RapidMove
after normalizing program coordinates to origin. This left programs
starting with a LinearMove, causing the post-processor to use that
endpoint as the pierce point — making the first contour edge zero-length
and losing the closing segment (e.g. the bottom line on curved parts).
Root cause: CadConverterForm.GetDrawings(), OnSplitClicked(), and
BomImportForm all called pgm.Codes.RemoveAt(0) after offsetting the
rapid to origin. The rapid at (0,0) is a harmless no-op that marks the
contour start point for downstream processing.
Also adds EnsureLeadingRapid() safety net in the Cincinnati post for
existing nest files that already have the rapid stripped.

Priority-based snapping: when the cursor is within 10px of an entity
endpoint or midpoint, snaps to it instead of the nearest contour point.
Diamond marker (endpoint) or triangle marker (midpoint) replaces the
lime dot to indicate active snap. Also refactors OnPaint into focused
helper methods and adds Arc.MidPoint().
