Drawing.PartColors (a public array aliasing the active scheme's), Drawing.UseGoldenAngleColors and a non-atomic colour counter were process-global display state. PartPalette now holds a copy of the colours and the golden-angle flag; PartColorPalette.Current/Use swap it as a whole, Drawing.GetPartColor/GetNextColor read it, and the counter increments atomically. Colours shown are unchanged.

Area and the canonical angle were refreshed together only by the Program setter; an in-place program edit needed two separate calls, and UpdateArea kept a stale Area when no material was left. ProgramChanged is now the single entry point (the setter calls it), a program with no material or a null program gives Area 0, and UpdateArea/RecomputeCanonicalAngle are private.

Move ContourSampler to OpenNest.CNC and DrawingAligner with its
AlignmentResult types to OpenNest.Converters: they were the only Geometry
files importing CNC and Converters. Their tests move with them.
CoreLayeringTests scans the Math and Geometry sources against the type
names reflection finds in Core, so neither can name a higher layer again.
Geometry keeps six root-namespace types on an explicit allowlist, and the

Its last callers were four strategy tests; they now use
PartOverlapChecker.FindOverlappingPairs, which also reports
contained and stacked parts.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.2 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The console overlap check and the MCP check_overlaps tool counted
crossing points, so a part contained in or stacked on another reported
no overlap. Both now list pairs from PartOverlapChecker.FindOverlappingPairs,
which uses the Intersects verdict and skips cut-off parts.
Plate.HasOverlappingParts stays for now: two test files outside this
change still call it.

BuildPartPerimeter swallowed every exception. It now guards a missing
program and an outline that forms no shape, and catches only geometry
failures; a null perimeter still makes a cut-off exclude the part's whole
bounding-box span.

Part.CloneAtOffset hands the copy the source's Program instance. The copy
cloned before rotating, but the source still owned the program, so rotating
the source turned the program under every tiled copy while their location
and bounds stayed put.
Program now carries a sticky SharedByParts flag that CloneAtOffset sets, and
a part copies its program before rotating when it does not own it or the
program is shared. The flag lives on the program rather than the part so a
restored cutting state, which reinstates ownership field for field, cannot
re-alias a shared program. Unrotated copies keep sharing one instance, which
the fill and overlap caches key on.
Update, ApplyLeadIns and ApplySingleLeadIn install a fresh program and now
own it, saving a needless copy on the next rotate.

On an enclosed machine a cutout slug that tips once cut free can stand up
above the sheet and catch the enclosure door when the pallet changes. The
head already keeps off cut cutouts, so this is about clearing the door, not
the head.
Cutting Settings > Cutouts > "Slice slugs the support grid can't hold
level" (CuttingParameters.SliceTippingSlugs, off by default, saved per
machine thickness and written only when on) makes Plan Cutting cut each
such slug along the bed's contact lines (grid rows and columns, slat center
lines) before the cutout, so no piece keeps a contact and the pieces drop
between the supports. Each slice stops a kerf short of the cutout, so the
pieces stay attached until the cutout's own kerf frees them together. A
slug the bed holds level, or one on no contact, is left whole; a cutout
holding another part or another of its part's cuts is never sliced.
Slices are break cuts emitted right after the drawing's own break cuts,
pierced on themselves and led straight back to their start. The
released-contour proof now leaves out straight break cuts lying wholly
inside one of the part's closed holes, since the grid cells they free are
scrap; break cuts in material still take part. The plan fingerprint only
changes when the setting is on.

Master added head-raise markers, common-line shared cuts and remainders to
the CI Fiber's own contour extractor, which this branch replaced with Core's
shared PostContours. Those now live in the shared model: PostContour carries
Raised, IsCommonLine and RemainderWinding, and Classify gives remainders the
perimeter macro on their perimeter's side and shared cuts no kerf side.
ContourWinding uses PortableMath for trig, as master's Core guard requires.

The CL post wrote the configured default side (G41) on every contour,
so a contour wound against OpenNest's convention was compensated into
the part. It now takes each feature's side from Core's shared
PostContours winding rule, as the CI Fiber post does: the perimeter is
picked across the part's cut features and hole sub-program contours
are always holes. Correctly wound drawings post unchanged.
Remove the "Default kerf side" post setting; saved configs that still
carry it load as before. Expose PostContours.Flatten and Classify so a
post can classify one part's features itself.
Add CL tests for a square with a hole: the exact inline program, cuts
that match the shared contours on the sheet, G41/G42 keeping the part
out of the kerf inline and through part sub-programs, and identical
output from absolute and incremental part and hole programs. The
replay now records the compensation in force on each cut.

Move the CI Fiber post's contour extraction and winding into Core as
OpenNest.CNC.Posting.PostContours and ContourWinding, so every post can
take sheet- or part-frame contours with the perimeter and kerf side
already chosen instead of re-deriving them. CI Fiber now writes from
the shared model; its golden output is unchanged.
Scribe marks are never picked as the perimeter and get no kerf. A cut
that resumes after suppressed moves starts a new contour where they
end, so it is no longer cut as a chord across the gap.
Add tests for a square with a hole in sheet coordinates, identical
contours from absolute and incremental part/hole programs, rotation,
and the kerf side for both windings.

On a plate packed edge to edge, an overlap left by hand-placing extra
parts could not be fixed: straight push chains ran into the edge and
the relaxation gave up on pairs that share material, which have no
contact normal. The relaxation now pushes such a pair along its
shortest straight way out and lets the rest settle, which cleared a
0.92 sq in overlap on a 38-part plate with every part kept square.
When moves alone still cannot settle, the relaxation runs again as a
rigid one: an off-center push also turns a part, up to 3 degrees, if
its drawing is free to rotate. Moves stay first because a tilt turns
every part the push reaches.

Expand Spacing opens up a whole selection; nests that are a hair short
of fitting need the opposite: move only the parts the overlap check
flags, by the shortfall, and leave everything else where it is.
Fix Spacing pushes one part of each flagged pair straight away from the
other and ripples the push into neighbors it crowds, so rows already
locked in at the spacing can make room. When a plate is packed edge to
edge and no straight push fits, a constraint relaxation shares each
shortfall between both parts along the closest-point normal. Every
result is confirmed by the overlap check before any part moves, and is
applied only when it has fewer findings and nothing new.
NativeContours gains a coarse-flattening overload, Translated, Nested
and a closest-points GapTo for the search.

Without tiering, PortableMath's Sin took 25.5 ns against the runtime's
15.0 ns in Release; marked AggressiveOptimization it takes 17.2 ns (Atan2
18.1 against 17.0). Results are unchanged: the cross-platform digest test
passes in Release and Debug on Linux and in Release on Windows.
Geometry, nesting and import code now call PortableMath instead of
System.Math for Sin, Cos, Tan, Atan, Atan2, Asin and Acos (Core, Engine,
IO, Data; 269 calls in 64 files). A test fails if those projects call the
runtime's trig again.
With the runtime's trig, Windows and Linux disagreed in the last bit at
non-quarter angles and the same job could nest differently: the
learned-angle nests (a cross fixture) placed 23 parts in Strip on Windows
and 28 on Linux. Now every Engine.Tests pin gives the same layout on both
(3600 passing on Linux and on DesktopPC), Linux layouts are unchanged, and
the learned-angle rows are re-pinned to the shared layouts, which pass the
overlap and work-area checks, and run on every platform again.
Fixes Project Memory 518f3b58.
System.Math's Sin, Cos and Atan2 call the C runtime, and Windows' UCRT and
Linux's glibc differ in the last bit at many angles that are not quarter
turns. Nesting turns those bits into different tie and tolerance decisions,
so the same job nests differently on the desktop and on Linux (Project
Memory 518f3b58).
PortableMath ports fdlibm's Sin, Cos, Atan and Atan2, which use only IEEE
exact operations, and builds Tan, Asin and Acos on them with Sqrt. Results
stay within one ulp of the runtime (a few for the derived functions) and
hash to the same digest on Linux and on Windows (DesktopPC). Nothing calls
it yet.
The part cut first no longer makes a separate uncompensated centerline
cut with its own lead-in and lead-out, then re-pierces for its
remainder. It cuts its outside compensated, which puts its shared edge
on the kerf centerline, starting on the common line: a straight lead-in
from the scrap along the shared edge, then the line and on round its
perimeter with no lead-out. A member with spans already cut stops in
that kerf and cuts its last stretch from it, ending beside the part it
is cut before. Partners still cut only their remainders.
Replay's tabbed-ring accounting now accepts pieces that tile each span
exactly once, and the pre-post review counts a span as cut by a
member's compensated edge (or an older centerline cut).

Straight spans of one pair that meet at a corner chain into one shared
path (CommonLineGeometry.Paths). Plan Cutting cuts it as one open
centerline cut through its corners, pierced and left in scrap along its
end legs; each member's spans run on to its own vertex at a corner, so
the path is one tab run. Join Common Line slides along the main edge so
the step of a Z or L also lands one kerf apart, and the plate draws the
path through its corners.

Extension lines now walk in from the dimension line until they come 6px from
the drawing's outline, as on the CAD Converter, passing measured points that
are off the outline (a rounded rectangle's sharp corners). The flange bolt
circle is a leader landing on the dotted circle from outside, between holes,
instead of a linear dimension whose extension lines crossed the flange.

The Shape Library's hole diameter leader now crosses its hole through the

The first fill of a new drawing was blamed on the best-fit pair search, but on the
reported nest that search takes ~3.4 s. The time goes to FillLinear.FillGrid, run
thousands of times by the Pairs, Row/Column and Linear strategies: pattern copy-distance
slides and the grid overlap check. Every change keeps the output bit for bit (part
poses compared on the benchmark nest; best-fit results unchanged).
- ConvexDecomposition.Triangulate: unlink clipped vertices from a circular list instead
of List.RemoveAt, and remember why a vertex failed the ear test (same neighbors, same
blocking vertex still present) instead of retesting it after every ear. Compared
bitwise against a frozen pre-change copy, including the blocker-clipped case.
- Collision: skip triangles whose box misses the other triangulation's union box (exact:
min/max and monotone subtraction), reuse each triangle's open vertices, and let the
overlap-only path stop at its first region when there are no holes. Check still
returns every region.
- SpatialQuery.ExtractEntityVertices presizes its set; FillLinear extracts each entity
list's vertices once per copy-distance search rather than once per pair.
- StripeFiller converges its stripe angles and tiles its grids in parallel. Dedup claims,
cached remnant fills, ranking and progress stay in candidate order, and grids are tiled
only for configurations a claim can still win (GridDedup.Contains), so results and
reports do not depend on the thread count.
- LinearFillStrategy fills its angles in parallel through
FillHelpers.BestOverAnglesInParallel; angle results, ranking and progress stay in order.
Benchmark (one drawing, 60x120, 0.25 spacing, cleared plate, interleaved runs):
FillItem Lattice 291/317 s -> 164/153 s, 132 parts both; PairFiller alone 48 s -> 38-42 s.

The Shape Library no longer has a side panel of inputs. Each length is a
dimension line or leader on the preview; click its label to type a new
value (Enter applies, Esc cancels, Tab moves to the next dimension), as
Edit Clamps does on the plate. Invalid values keep the editor open in
red and the last good shape on screen. Settings with no place on the
drawing (sides, pipe size, clearance, blind) are clickable notes along
the bottom. The flange hole leader carries the count beside the size,
such as "Ø7/8" x 8 holes".
Shapes declare their dimensions through ShapeDefinition.GetDimensions;
lengths show as fractions when exact to 1/64 (Fraction.Format). Edit
Clamps' inline text box moves to a shared DimensionBox.

Copying a layout meant recreating the plate and copying its parts by hand.
Ctrl+drag a row in the Plates list drops a copy at that slot; the row's
right-click menu has Duplicate Plate, which inserts the copy after it.
Plate.CopyLayout copies the sheet (size, outline, spacing, quadrant, grain,
clamps, support bed), the parts with their programs and lead-in state,
common-line groups and cut-off definitions, regenerated in their places in
the sequence, as a save and reload would. The copy is one sheet with no
stock item codes, since those name particular physical sheets. The desktop
gives it its own cutting parameters and records it as one undo step.

The empty new-plate header read only "New plate (empty)", so the sheet

The Layout label counted parts off the plate or inside the edge spacing, but
nothing showed which part or where, so the user had to hunt for it. Each edge
finding now gets a canvas marker like the overlap and spacing ones: a red
crosshair where a part leaves the sheet and an orange ring at the gap to the
edge, in every visible display mode, with hover text that carries the finding's
message. Markers are retained across edits like the other overlay findings
(only a changed part's marker drops), and a sheet size, edge spacing or outline
change clears them. Validate Nest already located these findings through
PostVerificationFinding.Location.
"Near edge" / "inside the edge spacing" read as a spacing rule rather than a
placement problem, so the label, overlay messages, PlateEdgeReview findings
and the Validate Nest category now say the part is outside the work area. Off
the plate keeps its wording. The PostVerificationKind.EdgeSpacing name stays.

The status bar's "Layout: OK" ran its own snapshot check of overlaps and
part spacing, separate from Validate Nest and posting, so a part dragged
off the sheet still read OK.
The plate capture now owns the sheet frame (sheet box, work area,
outline), and the worker runs PlateEdgeReview's material check on it:
"N off plate" and "N near edge" join the label. Snapshots hold no leads,
so leads past the sheet stay a Validate Nest/posting finding. The
geometry stamp now includes edge spacing and outline so changing them
marks the result out of date. Bare-part captures (Plan Cutting) have no
frame and are unchanged.

Six-decimal incremental PEP programs round arc centers, so an arc's end
tangent misses its neighbor's by about gap / radius (1.6e-5 rad on the
offset 5/32" fillet in the reported nest). Two parts resting one spacing
apart then gave the slide contact a Minkowski cone a hair wider than a
half-plane, which the classifier read as the whole plane: every direction
blocked, so the top part could not be pushed sideways along the part below.
SlideContact now reads a cone up to TangentSlack (1e-4 rad) past a
half-plane as a noisy half-plane and widens its boundary and concave-ray
comparisons by the excess, so near-tangential slides read as tangential.
A direction admitted that way can enter material by at most travel x
excess at that contact, and every other contact is still classified on its
own; wider cones remain real overlap and block. Raising JointTolerance was
not needed for this case and is left at 1e-6.
Whole-job benchmarks (synthetic nests plus the PEP job at 3 and 60 parts,
--parallel 1) are identical before and after for every engine.

Clicking and window selection paired the cut-off program's codes as
rapid/cut at even positions. A head-locked far-edge segment carries lock
comments (and, cut from the far edge, a rapid return) between its cuts,
so no pair matched and the line could not be selected, though it drew.
CutOff.CutStrokes now walks the motions once for the renderer, click
hit test, window selection and the Sheet Cut-Off preview, so what is
selectable matches what is drawn.

Slice 3 of common-line cutting. On costly plate (N26-295: 3/16 RA310S at about
$2,500 a sheet) pairing parts one kerf apart fits the part the spacing cannot:
the last plate's 38 parts fit on one 48x120 with Auto Nest only with pairs.
- Drawing Properties gains "Allow common line" (Drawing.AllowCommonLine, off by
default because customer edge-quality needs vary). The nest's CommonLineUsage
(Off / When it adds parts / Whenever available) is set in Auto Nest and seeded
from Tools > Nest Defaults; both persist (nest.json, defaults.json).
- NestPipeline runs the ordinary solve, then, with a level on, trials where
eligible parts are offered as kerf-gap pair compounds. Placed pairs expand into
parts plus explicit NestJobCommonLine groups, are validated again, and
CommonLineRanking keeps a trial only by the level: count first, then sheets;
"when it adds parts" keeps the plain layout on a tie, "whenever" also takes a
shorter cut or less material, never at the cost of a part. Engines, FillScore
and their comparers are unchanged; Off asks the engine exactly what it did.
- NestLayoutCheck exempts members only through a sheet's explicit group list and
only when the job allows common lines; materializing and committing create
Plate.CommonLines.
- Server nesting writes common-line jobs as version 3 and replays the recorded
trial answers, so the desktop binds the same groups.
- Fill Area honors the level through a PlateFillService overload.
- The benchmark gains --common-lines <level> --kerf <k>.
Benchmark (synthetic nests + N26-295, --parallel 1): with no flag and with
--common-lines off every engine matches the base commit; with a level on no
layout becomes invalid and three runs save a sheet at equal nested area.

N26-295's PT42 pairs saved spacing in slice 1 but every shared edge was
still cut twice, costing a pass per edge and risking a freed part
tipping under the head on the second pass.
Plan Cutting now cuts a plate's common lines once unless the plate is set
to cut them twice. Each group is cut member by member, owner before
partner (a captured dependency that search and replay enforce, so a kept
order cutting the partner first is a constraint conflict): the member's
holes, then the shared cuts it owns as open CommonLine centerline cuts
entered through the notch on the span's axis, then its remainder pieces,
each ramped in from the kerf the shared cut opened. Capture marks the
shared spans as tabs on the owned clean copy, so replay's contour
accounting proves each perimeter is cut exactly once; a lead that fits
at neither end refuses as UnsupportedGeometry naming the span, never
shortened. Material still comes from the drawing, so utilization,
quantity and overlap results do not change. Members are never
support-tabbed; locked or excluded members and broken groups refuse.
The CI Fiber post writes shared cuts in the cut-off form with a lead-in
and no G41/G42, and remainders in the contour form on their perimeter's
compensation side, named by a remainder comment. Cincinnati CL (whose
PreApplied mode offsets nothing) and Gravograph refuse such nests, as do
the desktop and console for any post without ICommonLinePostProcessor;
nothing falls back to a silent double cut. Plate > Arrange > Cut Common
Lines Twice keeps slice 1's behavior, persists with the plate and makes
an open plan stale.
Pre-post review now checks each span is cut once, on its centerline, by
the member cut first, and the rapid check treats a finished member's
remainders as an obstacle. Compensation start in void and cancel in
kerf are unconfirmed on the CI FIBER 4020; release waits on a 3/16
stainless coupon trial.

Expensive alloy jobs (N26-295, 310 stainless) could not fit their last
PT42 at full part spacing; the plate was squeezed to 0.2 spacing with a
part 0.14 from the edge. Parts whose straight edges face each other one
kerf apart are cut on the same centerline, saving the spacing along each
shared edge.
Plate.CommonLines holds groups of parts and the kerf they were joined
at. Shared spans are derived from the placed clean perimeters, never
stored, so a moved member breaks its group instead of leaving a stale
span. Plate > Arrange > Join Common Line slides the selected parts
together at the plate's kerf; Remove Common Line ungroups them. The
plate draws shared spans as a dashed centerline.
Both spacing checks hold group members to the kerf instead of the part
spacing, and a new pre-post Common lines check reports broken groups, a
changed kerf, and leads that run into a partner. Groups persist as part
positions in an optional commonLines array that older readers ignore.
This first slice still cuts every shared edge twice; single-pass cutting
through Plan Cutting and the posts comes next.

Validate Nest and the pre-post review checked overlaps and part-to-part
spacing but never the sheet itself, so a part dragged past the plate edge,
a lead-in piercing off the sheet, or a part inside the edge spacing could
post without a warning. Only Auto Nest's own layout check held parts to
the work area.
PlateEdgeReview adds two finding kinds:
- OffPlate: any cut, lead or scribe motion past the sheet, or clean
material outside an outlined sheet or over one of its obstacles.
- EdgeSpacing: clean material (leads excluded) outside the work area, or
closer than the largest edge spacing to an outline or obstacle - the
bound Auto Nest's layout check applies, with SpacingSlack, so layouts it
accepted stay clear.
Cut-off parts are exempt. Routing-replay test fixtures sit at the sheet
origin with leads hanging off it; their route assertions now ignore the
sheet-bound kinds, and the post-contract fixture moves onto the sheet.

Nobody tabs every part, but tabbing by size is useful even on a plate
that has a support grid. Cutting Settings > Tabs now offers "Only tab
parts the support grid can't hold level" or "Tab parts by size"
(CuttingParameters.TabBySize), which ignores the bed and tabs each part
whose minimum-area bounding rectangle's narrow side is in the range.
The support grid choice still falls back to that range on plates with
no bed, as before.
The range fields become TabSizeMinWidth/TabSizeMaxWidth; their JSON
keys stay noBedTabMinWidth/noBedTabMaxWidth so saved settings and nests
read unchanged. TabsEnabled stays as the per-contour flag Plan Cutting,
Place Lead-in and drawing pins set on the parts they tab.
Saved user settings with "Tab every part" read as tabs by size from 0
to 9999, which tabs the same parts. Only the user's settings migrate;
a plate's recorded parameters and pins replay as planned.
Plan Cutting, Place Lead-in and the pre-post review all go through
SupportTabSettings, so they agree on which parts need a tab. A
size-tabbed part is held by any clear tab, so it is never a rapid
obstacle.

A tail separator that landed on a front-edge clamp was skipped outright, so
a plate lost its whole remnant (19.5 in on a 48 x 120 sheet with the part
ending at a rail clamp) over a 1.5-in clamp. The separator now steps to the
clamp's far edge plus its clearance, repeating for any clamp it then meets,
and reports ClampMovedTailSeparator. The kept tail is shorter by that
distance and must still meet the minimum tail length; a separator pushed off
the sheet still reports NoSafeTailSeparator.

Resize to Fit snapped layouts larger than 48x48 to a hardcoded list of
inch mill sheets, so a plate already on a full sheet could not shrink to
its parts, and the cutoff ignored nest units and the machine's stock
sizes. It now rounds the parts' extent up to the auto-size plate factor
at every size through Plate.AutoSize.
Removes Plate.SnapToStandardSize and PlateSizes.Recommend with its
options; the sheet list and label lookup stay for Machine Config.

Operators want plates of the same size grouped together so material
doesn't need sorting when it arrives; there was no way to change plate
order. Rows can now be dragged to a new position (with a drop line and
edge auto-scroll), or moved with Alt+Up/Alt+Down. Each move is one
undoable "Move Plate" step and only reorders: quantities are untouched.
The trailing empty new-plate sentinel stays last. An empty plate moved
to the end becomes the sentinel, as the sentinel rule already does on
reload, so the order shown is the order saved.

A cutout's lead-out ends in its slug, so the rapid after it always crossed
the cutout just cut and the strict search refused every plan with cutout
lead-outs. The slug is free and may drop or tip, so emission now marks that
rapid to raise the head, and the rapid check accepts a raised rapid that
starts at the lead-out's end and leaves its cutout exactly once. Cutouts
without a lead-out, or with an overcut, still leave from the cut head down.

The last strip line stops at the remnant's full-length horizontal
separator, so it never counted as separating the sheet and the planner
cut it wherever the route passed it, often first (N26-264). That frees
the X-tail remnant early and loses the mass that absorbs heat while the
parts are cut.
A continuous line from a sheet edge or separator to another now counts
as a separator too (CutOff.Separators, found in rounds), so Plan Cutting
and Part Sequencing cut it after every part, just before the separator
it stops on. The problem-nest harness now adds scrap cut-offs with
KeepHorizontalRemnant, as both desktop entry points do.

Priority worked like a rank (lower first) with a default of 0, and the
Edit Drawing form stopped at 0, so moving one part ahead of the rest
meant renumbering every other drawing. Higher-first lets a user raise a
single part to 1 and leave everything else at the default.
Every engine, filler and candidate comparer now serves the highest tier
first. Stored values keep their order:
- .nest files add `nestPriority` and keep writing the negated value under
`priority`, so older readers nest in the same order; files without
`nestPriority` are negated on read. Drawing packages strip both, so
package hashes are unchanged.
- Library settings send both keys the same way for older clients.
- Server schema v18 negates stored drawing priorities (an older server
refuses the upgraded database).
- Job documents move to version 2; version 1 jobs are converted, and an
older worker refuses version 2 instead of reversing the order.
The Edit Drawing form now accepts negative priorities and says higher
numbers nest first.

A part with lead-ins applied could not be pushed away once another part
touched it. PartGeometry kept LEADIN/LEADOUT entities as material, so the
leads chained onto the perimeter as open spurs and the spacing offset no
longer closed. The slide-contact classifier cannot tell the material side
of an unclosed boundary and blocks every contact, so parts resting against
it could not move up or right off it. Leads are cut into scrap, and the
spacing review, overlap analyzer and support checks already drop them.

A tab entered at a fillet joint trims back around the corner, so the cut
stops on one edge and starts on the other. Each straight lead took its own
edge's normal and the pair sat 150 degrees apart, reading as one bent line
through the corner. Both now take the bisector of the two ends' normals and
form the same V they form on a straight edge, falling back to their own
normals when either lead would not clear the part.

A support-tabbed part that no single tab can hold level may tip once cut,
yet its tabbed outside was crossable like any retained part, so Plan
Cutting could rapid back across a row of long strips. Its outside is now a
rapid obstacle, closed across its tab gap, in the search, replay, cut-off
insertion and the safest route.
Its fallback entries are ranked toward the next cut rather than steadiest
first, so a long strip can be left toward the next part, and the "cut those
two the other way round" rule applies only when the approach crosses no
other part.

The Cincinnati CL post always drew an "incomplete final rapid sequence"
warning because it never declared IPostVerificationSupport. It writes etch
features before cuts, inserts or drops rapids, and with part sub-programs
rapids to each part's corner, so it cannot declare it unconditionally.
IPostVerificationSupport gains a nest-aware PlacedProgramOrderChange(nest)
(null = preserved; otherwise the reason, shown in the warning). The CL post
answers it from its own writer: part sub-programs and smart rapids off, and
every part's and hole's posted motions exactly equal to its placed ones.
Plan Cutting cuts scribes first, so planned nests qualify. CNC output is
unchanged.

A tabbed outside cut is trimmed short of its entry, but the trim only
handled lines and arcs: a round part's outline is one circle, so it was
cut whole. Plan Cutting counted it as tabbed and called the plan ready,
then the pre-post review found no tab and warned that the part may tip.
Cut a tabbed circle as an arc that stops the tab's chord short of its
entry, travelling the circle's own way.

Round holes are cut as sub-programs, which are never marked because they
may be shared, so the safest-route fallback could not raise the head for
the rapid into a hole: on interlocked layouts every such crossing stayed
a finding and the plan stayed unverified. A HEAD RAISE marker may now sit
directly before a sub-program call, raising the call's arrival rapid.
- Motion reader: a marked call raises its first rapid; each sub-program
motion records the part's own call that runs it.
- RaisedRapids marks the call when the crossing rapid is its arrival.
- Cincinnati CL keeps the marker with its hole call and writes M47 before
it; part sub-program dedupe now tells marked programs apart.
- CI Fiber raises before the hole's first G0.
