Edits in the Cutting Parameters dialog only reached user settings, while a
plate's stored parameters took priority, so a change was lost on any
planned plate unless Apply succeeded. User settings now win; a plate's own
are the fallback when none are saved or readable.
WinForms tests saved to the real user-settings.json, and with user settings
winning a test's lead-ins would feed real planning, so they now use a temp
file and skip the legacy settings carry-over.

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.

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.

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 cut planner status shows the run's elapsed time, and its inputs stay
enabled while planning: changing one cancels the run and starts a new one.
Cut-off settings open once the cancelled run releases the plates.

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.
