The File menu ran six output commands together with no separators, and
"Export" / "Export All" didn't say what they exported. Group them by what
they produce:
- Save Copy as .nest File... (was Export .nest...) moves next to Save As,
since it writes the nest file rather than exporting a plate.
- Export Plate... / Export All Plates... (were Export / Export All) get their
own group and the "..." their save dialogs call for.
- Nest Report... / Part Printouts... (were View ...) form a reports group.
- Storage Mode... gets its own separator above Exit.
Export Nest Report... is removed: the report viewer already has Save As
(available even without WebView2), so it was a second path to the same PDF.
Its guard and failure tests now drive the viewer path, and the atomic-write
test calls WriteNestReport directly. The Avalonia prototype's matching
command is renamed too.

A part printout showed the part but not its size on the drawing, so the
operator had to read the table to know which way was which. Each page now
draws the overall X extent below the part and the Y extent to its right,
as the Shape Library does: arrows, a boxed label and extension lines that
stop 6 pt short of the outline itself rather than its bounding box.
Each dimension line moves out far enough to keep its label 14 pt clear of
the part (a wide label centered on an 18 pt line nearly touched it), and
the part and its dimensions sit 28 pt inside the drawing border, double
the old padding.

The nest report already leads its thickness with the machine config's
Name / Gauge; the part printout's THICKNESS cell now does the same
(16 ga - 0.0598"), from the same lookup in the desktop.
Thickness names are typed into the machine config, so both writers now check
them against the bundled font's Latin-1 limit like other free text, instead
of failing partway through rendering.

Each machine thickness already has a Name / Gauge field the shop fills in, so
the report now shows that name instead of guessing one from the standard
gauge table. It is matched the way the machine cutting defaults match the
nest's material, grade and thickness; a thickness without a name shows just
the decimal.

The generated date sat among the summary's report details and printed a UTC
offset nobody on the shop floor reads. It now goes in every page's footer,
left of "Page X of Y", in the computer's own time zone without the offset.
The thickness now leads with its gauge or plate fraction ("16 ga - 0.0598 in")
when it matches one, as the thickness box lists it. Reporting references Core
only, so the desktop looks the name up in StandardThicknesses and passes it on
the snapshot.

Shops used CutSend to get a part printout (the part drawn to fit a Letter
page over a details table) because OpenNest had no way to make one. File >
View Part Printouts prints every part drawing of the nest, and the drawing
list's View Part Printout prints one; both open the report viewer to save
or print.
Cut length and pierce count walk the program as it is cut, so etch marks,
tab spans and display-only moves add neither, a tabbed cutout counts one
pierce per piece, and breakoff and common-line cuts count. The drawing list
item reaches the main window directly so nests made by BOM import get it
too. Rendering shares the nest report's lock, fonts and Latin-1 limit.

Operators reading a printed nest report could not see where the machine
clamps sit or which ones must be pulled before cutting, and had no way to
measure positions off the layout. Plate diagrams now draw active clamps as
hatched rectangles (labels keep clear of them) and removed rail clamps as
dashed, crossed-out rectangles over the parts, with a legend line only on
plates that have clamps. A horizontal ruler below and a vertical ruler left
of the drawing read the sheet's plate coordinates in job units; the
diagram is fitted in two passes so the ruler bands match their numbers,
and part labels never enter them. Rulers draw as their own content stream
so the diagram stream holds only the sheet and what is on it.

The shop needs each sheet's weight for handling, so the summary's plates
table gains a Sheet weight column: one full sheet from its area, the nest
thickness and the nest (or catalog) density. A drawing's own material is
not used, since it doesn't say what the stock is; with no density the
column is left out.
Plates with copies now put the total cut time (and total weight) on a
second line instead of after a comma, which wrapped mid-phrase.

Ring-shaped parts (a plate with a large center hole) were left unlabeled:
the material at their pole is too narrow for the ID, and the label was
never tried anywhere else. Group IDs were likewise only ever placed beside
the dotted outline, so a cramped cluster lost its ID or straddled the
sheet edge.
A part whose pole spot is too tight now takes the roomiest clear spot
within its own extents, such as its empty hole. A group ID takes the
roomiest spot inside its outline or beside it; with none clear it may
cover the group's own parts near the center, since operators read part
detail from the parts list. No ID sits across the sheet outline.

Each dotted group outline was padded 1 pt beyond its parts. At overview scale
a 0.25 in part spacing is only ~1.3 pt, so the outlines of two adjacent
clusters (e.g. the six small bars and the two holed plates on N26-27Y plate 1)
overlapped, and the later group - with its ID - was silently dropped.
Pad outlines by under half the part spacing instead, so neighboring clusters
both get their outline and ID.

Nest reports showed "-" for every part weight on N26-295 because the nest and
its drawings store Stainless Steel 310 with density 0: materials are picked by
name and grade, and nothing copies a density onto them. The densities live in
the machine material defaults, and for this nest not even on its own machine
(CL-980 lists only 304; 310 is on CI FIBER 4020).
The desktop now resolves a catalog density before capturing the report: the
nest machine's exact name and grade, any machine's exact name and grade, then
the same material name. A density stored on the nest still wins, and the
drawing's own material stays the last fallback.

The summary's parts table squeezed each thumbnail into a 62 pt column and
had no room for the size and weight the shop asks for. Each drawing is now
a card, four to a row: ID, a larger thumbnail, name, bounding-box size,
weight each and for all nested copies, required/nested counts and plates.
A shortage or extra is a badge beside the ID (SHORT in red) so it stays
easy to spot without a column to scan.
Weight is net area x nest thickness x material density, read as lb/in^3
like the machine material defaults; millimeter jobs report kilograms. A
nest without thickness or density shows "-" and a note saying what is
missing, never a zero weight.

Export Nest Report only wrote a file, so checking or printing a report meant
finding it and opening another program. View Nest Report renders the same
snapshot to a private temp folder and opens it in a WebView2 viewer with
Save As and Print; closing the window deletes the temp copy. Export and View
share the capture and write guards.

Group outlines and their shared ID were rejected whenever they touched
another part's bounding box. A large irregular part's box can cover most
of the sheet, so small repeated parts sitting in its notch or cutout
(e.g. test squares) were left with no ID at all. Test clearance against
real contours instead, as individual labels already do.

The nest report PDF gains an estimated cut time: the job total on the
summary, an Est. cut time column in the plates table, and per-plate and
all-copies times on each plate page. Times come from the cut simulation
with the settings last used in Calculate Cut Time, plus clamp removal.

Report, dialog and diagnostic text across post verification, cutoff
planning, alignment and cutting-plan review repeatedly told the user
what checks weren't (safety certifications, proof, guarantees) instead
of what to do. Reworded these to state the same caveats affirmatively
(inspect X, confirm Y, review Z) without changing the underlying
safety guidance, and updated the tests/docs that pinned the old wording.
Capture the report target and reject whole-job nesting, open progress
windows, interactive fill and busy plate actions across every view
sharing the nest; revalidate after the save dialog, capture the snapshot
synchronously on the UI thread and render it through OpenNest.Reporting.
Windows adapter tests cover enablement, guards, cancel, success and a
write failure against an existing destination (compile-only on Linux;
Windows runtime acceptance still owed).
Slice 2 of the nest report plan: pagination, overflow and dense-label
coverage on top of the Slice 1 one-plate library.
- NestPdfWriter: general multi-plate pagination. Summary/plate tables
continue across pages with repeated (HeadingFormat) header rows; notes
flow as an ordinary paragraph instead of a bounded cell; page headers
are wrapped and sized into the top margin; drawing areas are located
per page via DocumentRenderer.GetRenderInfoFromPage.
- ReportText: lossless pre-wrapping (MigraDoc clips an over-tall row and
lets an unbroken token overflow a narrow cell without warning), capped
table-cell line counts, plate-range compression ("1-2, 4"), and
A/B/.../AA map-grid row names.
- NestReportDiagram: label placement centers each part ID on its
PolyLabel pole (matching PlateView's LayoutPart), computed on a
placement-independent quantized copy so identical parts share one
label position. Parts whose ID cannot fit legibly at overview scale
get a lettered/numbered map grid and a zoomed, framed detail page per
crowded cell; the writer fails with plate/part/ID when even that
cannot place a label, or a plate would need more than 24 detail views.
- Tests: NestPdfLayoutTests (multi-plate totals/ranges/same-named
references, table continuation with no lost rows, long name/notes
wrapping without column overflow, mm units in all four quadrants,
dense-label detail views with hole avoidance, save/reload of the
tabbed/lead-in fixture with stale tab flags, invalid later-plate data,
late write failures against an existing destination, source
unchanged on success/failure), ReportPdf test helper (page/word/
content-stream extraction).
- docs/nest-reports.md: replace the Slice 1 one-plate limits section
with the general pagination/dense-label contract and the process-wide
PDFsharp/MigraDoc render lock.
Verification: Reporting filter 70/70; full OpenNest.Tests 2524
passed/21 skipped/0 failed; Engine 351/351; IO 77/77;
EnableWindowsTargeting=true full-solution build 0 errors; scoped
dotnet format --verify-no-changes exit 0. Preview PDFs rendered and
visually inspected (evidence: /home/aj/extracted/2026-09-29/opennest-report-slice2/).
Windows runtime, the desktop adapter and packaged-app font deployment
remain unverified (Slice 3).
Add OpenNest.Reporting (net8.0, PDFsharp-MigraDoc 6.2.4) with a detached
report snapshot and a PDF writer for an empty/demand-only job or a single
plate layout: Letter portrait summary with vector part thumbnails and a
landscape plate page with a vector sheet diagram, both with Page X of Y.
- Snapshot uses reference identity for document-local R### IDs, recounts
nested quantities from placements x copies with checked wide integers,
excludes cutoffs from accounting, and retains no live domain objects.
- Geometry keeps Cut/Display material paths, drops rapid/scribe/lead paths,
preserves native arcs, holes and intentional tab gaps, and rejects
malformed programs with plate/part identification.
- Open contours and cutoffs are stroked per contour so PDFsharp cannot join
a tab gap to the next contour.
- Bundled DejaVu Sans via a custom resolver (including MigraDoc's error
font); unsupported text fails with the field and code point.
- Layouts beyond this slice (multiple plates, page overflow, labels that
do not fit) fail with NotSupportedException before the destination is
replaced; output is rendered to a temporary sibling and moved atomically.
