docs: re-audit gaps.md and the parity docs against main e707ab4d

Browse Source 
Redo of the earlier audit after ~100 PRs landed on 2026-10-13. Every change
cites a merged PR, a file or a count taken from the code; claims that could
not be verified are left as they were. Percentages and hours are not
re-scored (listed in the PR description).

Corrected: REFEDIT (#818), dynamic block references (#838-#883), Block
Editor, MLEADEREDIT/ALIGN/COLLECT (#816), in-place MTEXT editor (#792),
AutoLISP (#855), MVIEW Restore and model-space PDF margins (#633),
SpaceMouse 2D navigation (#650), ACIS data kept on save (#781),
attribute modes (#876), polyline offset bulges (#825), acadrust 0.6.4
(#859), twelve interface catalogs with re-measured row counts, closed
winit PRs #110-#119, PR/issue counts and test counts, and ui-parity rows
that earlier work had already closed.

CADCraft targets full parity with AutoCAD (2D drafting first, then annotation, layouts and
plotting, DWG, parametrics and 3D), plus what AutoCAD doesn't have: agent control over MCP, a
scriptable CLI, a web build, Linux and FreeBSD builds, and a free licence.
**Why pre-alpha:** four of AutoCAD's five core workflows fail the [alpha gate](docs/roadmap.md#alpha-gate).
Precise drafting lacks object snap tracking and has stubbed TRIM/EXTEND/OFFSET options; blocks
can't be edited in a block editor (REFEDIT edits them in place, xrefs not yet); plots ignore plot styles; and a DWG saved by
CADCraft drops everything it doesn't model and has never been checked in
Precise drafting still has approximate ellipse and spline intersections and a few stubbed prompt options
(object snap tracking, TRIM/EXTEND/OFFSET options and typed snap overrides have landed); dynamic blocks can't be
authored and xrefs can't be edited in place or clipped (the Block Editor, REFEDIT and dynamic block editing have landed);
plots go only to PDF, PNG and SVG files (plot styles and the Plot dialog have landed); and a DWG saved by
CADCraft drops what acadrust doesn't model and has never been checked in
AutoCAD. Dimensioning passes. Ready for real work (≈ 38%) is also under the ~40% alpha bar. Beta
is ≈ 600–930 h away.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| F1 | **[alpha blocker]** Prompt options that still print "not available yet": -ATTEDIT one-at-a-time Position, Height, Angle and Style, colour books in -ATTEDIT Color, -RENAME of materials, plot styles and viewport configurations. SPLINEDIT Join, Edit vertex Add and Elevate order (#559), PEDIT Edit vertex and the other SPLINEDIT options (#558) done: Edit vertex Tangent directions last for the PEDIT session only (LWPOLYLINE stores none). MTEXT Dynamic/Static columns done (#547). SPLINE, MTEXT and MLEADER options done (#408): SPLINE Object fits the polyline's vertices (no spline frame is kept) (STRETCH polygon, CP and WP, and fence selection done; TRIM/EXTEND, PLINE arc mode and Length, XLINE done (#397); OFFSET, ROTATE and FILLET options done earlier) | `cmd/blocks/attedit.rs`, `cmd/props/rename.rs` | Low: the most-used commands are done | 1–3 |
| F2 | XREF editing in place and clipping: XCLIP is missing. REFEDIT, REFSET and REFCLOSE edit a block reference in place (working set, faded rest of the block, everything else locked, save or discard; #813); left: editing an xref in place (its source drawing is not written back; XOPEN opens it), picking nested references, a dimmed look for the locked drawing and a banner with Save and Discard, attribute sync of other references (ATTSYNC). XATTACH, the External References palette, -XREF (Bind/Detach/Path/Unload/Reload/Overlay), XBIND, XOPEN, overlays, relative paths and loading at open are done (#525). Unloaded state and xref-layer overrides last only for the session | `cmd/blocks/xref.rs` | Medium: xrefs can't be edited in place or clipped | 15–25 |
| F3 | **[alpha blocker]** (dynamic-block authoring is beta) No dynamic-block authoring: parameters and actions can't be added in the Block Editor. Dynamic blocks from other files are read and their references edited (visibility, distances, stretch and move, lookups, grips). BEDIT (with the Edit Block Definition dialog, which also starts new blocks), BSAVE, BSAVEAS and BCLOSE edit a static block definition, and every reference updates; REFEDIT edits a reference in place; no authoring palettes yet | issue #185 offers help | High: standard libraries are dynamic | 40–65 |

| F2 | XREF editing in place and clipping: XCLIP is missing. REFEDIT, REFSET and REFCLOSE edit a block reference in place (working set, faded rest of the block, everything else locked, save or discard; #818, closing issue #813); an xref is refused with a message.

Dynamic blocks from other files are read and their references edited (visibility, distances, stretch and move, lookups, grips; polar, XY, rotation, alignment and flip parameters and the scale, rotate, flip, array and polar stretch actions are read but not applied, `doc/src/dynblock/apply.rs`). BEDIT (with the Edit Block Definition dialog, which also starts new blocks), BSAVE, BSAVEAS and BCLOSE edit a static block definition, and every reference updates; REFEDIT edits a reference in place; no authoring palettes yet | issue #185 offers help | High: standard libraries are dynamic | 40–65 |
| F4 | Autosave leftovers: no autosave in the web build (browser storage); autosave files are DXF, not DWG; no AUDITCTL `.adt` log and no separate RECOVER mode in the file readers (SAVETIME, Drawing Recovery, AUDIT and RECOVER landed with #406) | `engine/src/autosave.rs`, `engine/src/audit.rs` | Low-medium (web users) | 3–5 |
| F5 | Associative arrays (ASsociative, Levels, polar ROWs, ARRAYEDIT, ARRAYCLOSE) landed (#448); left: grip editing of arrays (count/spacing grips), ARRAYPATH is not associative, ARRAYEDIT has no item deletion (CTRL+click) and no Key point base points, levels only shift Z (no 3D view) | `cmd/array.rs`, `cmd/array/edit.rs` | Medium | 4–6 |
| F7 | Dimensions: no DIMSTYLE manager dialog; no smart DIM; DIMTFILL/DIMTFILLCLR, DIMALTTD/DIMALTTZ, DIMUPT and DIMTXTDIRECTION not modelled; jog height and break size not style settings; DIMBREAK breaks don't follow moved objects (style variables, DIMJOGGED, DIMJOGLINE, DIMBREAK, DIMEDIT, DIMINSPECT and QDIM modes done, #507) | `doc/src/tables.rs`, `cmd/annotate_dimedit.rs`, `cmd/annotate_qdim.rs` | Medium | 10–15 |
| F8 | TOLERANCE leftovers (feature control frames landed, #420: model, our own symbol drawing, DXF, command-line prompts, explode, grips): no Geometric Tolerance dialog, no LEADER/QLEADER tolerance annotation, no in-place editing of a frame's contents | `cmd/tolerance.rs` | Low-medium (mechanical) | 2–4 |
| F10 | MLEADEREDIT (add/remove leader), MLEADERALIGN and MLEADERCOLLECT landed, but a multileader has one landing and one block (a collection keeps the other blocks as block references beside it; MLEADERALIGN has no Options-menu preview); MLEADERSTYLE has 5 fields (block content and spline/no-leader types are per command, not in the style; block content has no attributes) | `annotate.rs`, `cmd/mleader_content.rs`, `tables.rs:417` | Medium | 8–12 |
| F9 | MTEXT is typed in an on-canvas editor with a formatting toolbar (font, height, bold, italic, underline, overline, colour, alignment, lists, tab and special characters) and a ruler for indents and tab stops (#532); left: the box does not lay the text out by the indents, tabs, columns or font weights while typing (bold shows wider, overline is not drawn), no justification (attachment) or columns controls in the editor, existing MTEXT cannot be edited (no DDEDIT/MTEDIT), stacked fractions and other codes show as placeholders; no fields (FIELD, UPDATEFIELD) and no spell check (SPELL): open PR #551. Paragraph indents, tabs, bullets, numbering and columns landed (#547) | `ui-egui/mtext_editor.rs`, `engine/mtext_edit.rs` | Medium | 10–18 |
| F10 | MLEADEREDIT (add/remove leader), MLEADERALIGN and MLEADERCOLLECT landed, but a multileader has one landing and one block (a collection keeps the other blocks as block references beside it; MLEADERALIGN has no Options-menu preview); MLEADERSTYLE has 6 settings (arrow size, text height, landing gap, dogleg, text style, annotative; block content and spline/no-leader types are per command, not in the style; block content has no attributes) | `annotate.rs`, `cmd/mleader_content.rs`, `cmd/mleader_edit.rs`, `doc/src/tables.rs` | Medium | 8–12 |
| F9 | MTEXT is typed in an on-canvas editor with a formatting toolbar (font, height, bold, italic, underline, overline, colour, alignment, lists, tab and special characters) and a ruler for indents and tab stops (#532); left: the box does not lay the text out by the indents, tabs, columns or font weights while typing (bold shows wider, overline is not drawn), no justification (attachment) or columns controls in the editor, existing TEXT and MTEXT are edited as plain text on the command line with TEXTEDIT (alias DDEDIT; a double-click starts it, #868), and the in-place editor for existing MTEXT is open PR #1002; stacked fractions and other codes show as placeholders; no fields (FIELD, UPDATEFIELD) and no spell check (SPELL): open PR #551. Paragraph indents, tabs, bullets, numbering and columns landed (#547) | `ui-egui/mtext_editor.rs`, `engine/mtext_edit.rs` | Medium | 10–18 |
| F11 | Tables (cell styles, formulas, TABLEDIT, TABLEEXPORT, table breaking and CSV data links landed, #534): formulas aren't read from or written as AutoCAD FIELD objects (other programs see values); number formats apply to formula results only; cell text doesn't wrap; custom cell styles, breaks and data links travel as CADCraft xdata (not through DWG); data links read CSV only (no Excel ranges, no write-back, not on the web); no cell-style tab in the Table Style dialog | `cmd/table/*`, `io/dxf_table.rs` | Low-medium | 6–10 |
| F12 | Annotative scaling done (#468): scale list (SCALELISTEDIT), CANNOSCALE, OBJECTSCALE, ANNOALLVISIBLE/ANNOAUTOSCALE, viewport scale, DXF, status bar list. Left: per-scale positions (ANNORESET is a no-op), a viewport annotation scale apart from its viewport scale, annotative objects inside blocks and old LEADERs, AutoCAD files' per-object scale contexts (read as not annotative) | `cmd/annoscale.rs`, `doc/src/anno.rs` | Low-medium | 4–8 |
| F14 | **[alpha blocker]** Plotting leftovers: binary `.ctb`/`.stb`/`.pc3` files can't be read; model-space PDF plots keep the default margins (a device paper's margins apply to layouts and PNG plots); no system printers (H3); the page setup's "Plot transparency" is not saved in DXF/DWG (the public DXF Reference has no plot layout flag for it), so it lasts for the session and in JSON only. The Plot dialog (#160), Plot Preview and PUBLISH (#186), plot styles (CTB and STB, [plot-styles.md](plot-styles.md), #410) with their end, join and fill styles, plotter devices with paper sizes and printable areas ([plotters.md](plotters.md), #564), and plotted transparency (page setup and Plot dialog option, PLOTTRANSPARENCYOVERRIDE) landed | `io/src/plotter.rs`, `cmd/plotters.rs` | Medium | 4–8 |
| F14 | **[alpha blocker]** Plotting leftovers: binary `.ctb`/`.stb`/`.pc3` files can't be read; no system printers (H3; CUPS printing on macOS and Linux is open PR #755); the page setup's "Plot transparency" is not saved in DXF/DWG (the public DXF Reference has no plot layout flag for it), so it lasts for the session and in JSON only.

| F13 | Hatch: 23 patterns (AutoCAD ~85; ours must stay original); the Hatch and Gradient and Hatch Edit dialogs have no Preview or Inherit Properties and can't add or remove boundaries of an existing hatch (HPDLGMODE 0 keeps HATCH on the command line), no MPolygon; HATCHEDIT can't add or remove boundaries; a hatch copied with its boundary isn't linked to the copy; HPGAPTOL closes gaps between curve ends only | `doc/src/library.rs`, `cmd/hatch.rs`, `cmd/hatch/edit.rs` | Medium | 8–12 |
| F15 | Viewports: MVIEW Restore prints "not available yet" (named viewport configurations into a layout, see U11); a clipped viewport and its clip boundary move and scale separately. Polygonal, object and clipped viewports, VPCLIP, MVIEW ON/OFF/Lock/2/3/4 and the status-bar scale list landed (#453) | `cmd/layout/viewports.rs` | Low | 2–4 |
| F15 | Viewports: a clipped viewport and its clip boundary move and scale separately. Polygonal, object and clipped viewports, VPCLIP, MVIEW ON/OFF/Lock/2/3/4/Restore (a saved viewport configuration into a layout, #633) and the status-bar scale list landed (#453) | `cmd/layout/viewports.rs` | Low | 2–4 |
| F16 | Groups: no group bounding box or single grip when a group is selected (GROUPDISPLAYMODE), copying a whole group does not make a new group, no Object Grouping dialog (GROUP, GROUPEDIT, UNGROUP, -GROUP, PICKSTYLE group selection and the DXF/DWG round trip landed, #417); PICKSTYLE's associative-hatch bit is stored but unused | `cmd/groups.rs` | Low | 2–4 |
| F17 | Attributes (ATTSYNC, global -ATTEDIT, BATTMAN editing and DATAEXTRACTION/EATTEXT landed, #433): no verify, preset or lock-position modes, and multiline attributes (read, drawn and saved since 2026-10-12) can't be created or switched in BATTMAN; data extraction covers block references and attribute values (CSV or a table) only — no wizard, nested blocks, other objects' properties, `.dxe` templates or spreadsheet output | `cmd/blocks/battman.rs`, `cmd/blocks/extract.rs` | Low | 4–6 |
| F17 | Attributes (ATTSYNC, global -ATTEDIT, BATTMAN editing and DATAEXTRACTION/EATTEXT landed, #433): the Verify, Preset and Lock position modes are kept in files and Lock position is applied by INSERT and ATTSYNC (#876), but INSERT doesn't act on Verify or Preset, and multiline attributes (read, drawn and saved since 2026-10-12) can't be created or switched in BATTMAN; data extraction covers block references and attribute values (CSV or a table) only — no wizard, nested blocks, other objects' properties, `.dxe` templates or spreadsheet output | `cmd/blocks/battman.rs`, `cmd/blocks/extract.rs` | Low | 4–6 |
| F19 | MATCHPROP Settings is a keyword prompt (no dialog) and has no material, shadow or centre-object settings; TEXTTOFRONT and HATCHTOBACK act on the current space only; OVERKILL doesn't compare polyline segments with other objects (picker and Settings, DRAWORDER Above/Under, TEXTTOFRONT, HATCHTOBACK, OVERKILL tolerance/ignore/overlap/end-to-end options landed, #439) | `props/matchprop.rs`, `draworder.rs`, `overkill.rs` | Low | 2–4 |
| F20 | OPTIONS dialog done (#23): Display, Open and Save, Drafting, Selection, User Preferences and Profiles tabs, and the user profile (object snap modes, drafting toggles, Dynamic Input, PICKBOX, APERTURE, GRIPSIZE, CURSORSIZE, PICKFIRST, PICKADD, QPMODE, model and paper background, snap marker size, system cursor) survives restarts. Left: right-click customization, the autosave interval and default save version on Open and Save (the features themselves landed, #406, #421), AutoSnap magnet and tooltip toggles, colours of the other drawing-area elements, named profiles with import and export | `ui-egui/src/options/` | Low | 2–4 |
| F20 | OPTIONS dialog done (#531, closing #23): Display, Open and Save, Drafting, Selection, User Preferences and Profiles tabs, and the user profile (object snap modes, drafting toggles, Dynamic Input, PICKBOX, APERTURE, GRIPSIZE, CURSORSIZE, PICKFIRST, PICKADD, QPMODE, model and paper background, snap marker size, system cursor) survives restarts. The autosave interval and location, the default save version and the time-sensitive right-click toggle are on Open and Save and User Preferences too (`options/dialog.rs`). Left: right-click customization beyond that toggle, AutoSnap magnet and tooltip toggles, colours of the other drawing-area elements, named profiles with import and export | `ui-egui/src/options/` | Low | 2–4 |
| F21 | MLINE, REGION and HELIX are objects since #510, with gaps: MLEDIT has no Merged Tee and tees trim square; UNION/SUBTRACT/INTERSECT only combine regions whose boundaries don't meet; regions are saved as closed polylines (no ACIS data); PURGE skips multiline styles | `draw2/mline.rs`, `inquiry/regions.rs`, `dxf_region.rs` | Low | 6–10 |
| F22 | Inquiry leftovers (COUNT across spaces and nested blocks, the QuickCalc palette and COMPARE landed, #563; MASSPROP on regions, #510): COMPARE compares the tab shown, not every layout at once, and has no COMPAREEXPORT report; QuickCalc keeps its history and variables for the session only | `file/compare.rs`, `palettes/quickcalc.rs` | Low | 3–5 |
| F23 | No Sheet Set Manager, eTransmit, Share, Traces, Markup Import, Activity Insights | menu items uncovered | Low-medium (team workflows) | 40–70 |

3. **A real-file corpus** and a check of our output in AutoCAD (FF5, needs the owner).
4. **Precision input:** object snap tracking, extension/parallel snaps, FROM/M2P/TK, typed snap
overrides, editable dynamic input (U1–U4). ≈ 25–35 h.
5. **Unstub the prompt options** of the most-used commands (F1). ≈ 15–25 h.
6. **Autosave, recovery, AUDIT, RECOVER** (F4). ≈ 10–15 h.

How CADCraft's interaction compares with AutoCAD's: point entry, object snaps, tracking, dynamic
input, grips, selection, the command line, chrome and navigation. A drafter's speed in AutoCAD
comes from these, so "the command exists" isn't enough: it has to accept the same input, snap to
the same points and respond to the same keys. Work items: [gaps.md](gaps.md#uiux).
**Headline (estimated): UI/UX fidelity ≈ 48%.** The command line, point syntax, the common
running snaps, polar/ortho, object snap tracking and the palettes are real, and so are the
Extension, Parallel and Apparent Intersection snaps (#379); dynamic input is a read-only
tooltip; FROM, M2P, TK and point filters don't exist; hot-grip options are advertised but
ignored; there are no context menus. Remaining: **≈ 110–170 Opus 5.5 hours**.
**Headline (estimated): UI/UX fidelity ≈ 48%.** The command line, point syntax (FROM, M2P, TK,
point filters, typed snap overrides), the common running snaps, polar/ortho, PolarSnap, object snap
tracking, Dynamic Input (pointer boxes, grip dimensional input, DYNPROMPT), hot-grip options with
several hot grips, shortcut menus and the palettes are real, and so are the Extension, Parallel and
Apparent Intersection snaps (#379). Missing: lasso selection, selection cycling, grip hover menus,
multifunctional grips on dimensions and text, workspaces and the navigation bar. The 48% and the area
percentages below are from 2026-10-11 and were not re-measured. Remaining: **≈ 110–170 Opus 5.5 hours**.
