* DWG: a table cell's text height is an override only when the file flags it (#2501)
acadrust's DXF writer writes group 140 for any cell with a style record, even a
default 0.18 with no override flag, and CADCraft read it as a per-cell height,
so cells ignored the table style's height. The bridge now clears the height of a
cell style that has neither the TEXT_HEIGHT property flag nor the content's
height override bit (0 reads as no override).
* Parity checklist: regenerated after merging main
* Tests: inherited table cell heights must stay unset (review on #2588)
A cell that inherits its height must read back as None, not an explicit 0.0625 override.
* Parity checklist: regenerated after merging main
* Test: a cell style with the TEXT_HEIGHT flag, content override bit 128 and a cell with no style record keep the right height (review on #2588)
* DWG: a table cell's content height override (group 144) is kept (review on #2588)
* Parity checklist: regenerated after merging main
* DWG: table cell height takes the first content's override and the style's override flags (review on #2588)
Only the first content's bit-128 height stands for the cell (one height for its text); an
invalid content height no longer keeps the writer's default 0.18; a height marked only in
the style's override flags (newer files) is kept.
* Extents: an MTEXT's wrap width only narrows its box (#2465)
A garbage group 41 width (3e14) became the box width, so the drawing extents were 3e14
wide. The width is now capped at the longest line's estimate. The width 0 branch is
unchanged. Tests: a_huge_mtext_wrap_width_does_not_inflate_the_extents and
a_narrow_mtext_wrap_width_still_sets_the_box_width.

* Dimensions: fill in the measurement when one is created (#2421)
A dimension made in the session kept measurement 0.0 until it was saved and reopened.
add_dim now sets it with the geometry call the DXF/DWG writer uses for group 42.
Block names are still assigned at save time. Test: a_new_dimension_reports_its_measurement.
* Parity checklist: regenerated after merging main
* Dimensions: a jogged radius dimension stores its radius as the measurement (#2421)
draw_jogged_radius set the text but not DimGeometry.measurement, so DIMJOGGED dimensions
kept measurement 0 (and the DXF/DWG group 42 was 0). It now sets the radius.
Test: jogged_radius asserts the stored measurement.
* Parity checklist: regenerated after merging main
* Dimensions: fill in a new dimension's text position when it is created (#2421)
A dimension made in the session kept text_mid (0,0) until it was saved and reopened.
add_dim now sets it from the same dimension_geometry result as the measurement, the
position the writer puts in group 11, unless the user placed the text.
Test: a_new_dimension_reports_its_text_position.

* DWG: keep the current layer (CLAYER) through a save and reopen (#2252)
The DWG header stores the current layer as a handle, and the one read from the DXF
needn't be the layer's in the document, so the drawing reopened on layer 0.
The bridge now resolves CLAYER by name to the layer's handle before writing, like
the current text and dimension styles. Test: the_current_layer_round_trips_through_dwg.
* Parity checklist: regenerated after merging main
* DWG: resolve $CLAYER through the layer table's Unicode-aware lookup (#2252)
eq_ignore_ascii_case missed non-ASCII case differences such as Survey_Ä / Survey_ä,
leaving layer 0 current. acadrust's Table::get normalises names with to_uppercase.
* DWG: test a current layer named in other letter case (#2252)
-VPORTS saved, restored and deleted named model space viewport
configurations, and MVIEW Restore placed one in a layout, but View >
Viewports > Named Viewports... had no command. The new command
vports.named runs from the menu item. Typed or from the menu it opens
the Named Viewports dialog: the saved configurations, a preview of the
selected one's tiles, and in the Model tab the name of the configuration
whose tiles are where the Model tab's are, else *Active. Restore shows
the configuration in the Model tab, and in a layout it starts MVIEW
Restore with the name, which asks for the corners. Delete deletes the
saved configuration. The JSON form takes {name?, delete?, p1?, p2?,
layout?}, and without a name it returns the configurations and the
current one.
Catalog rows for the new menu label are added in all 15 languages. In
docs/gaps.md, U11 is narrowed, and F15, U11 and F21 no longer list MVIEW
Restore (#633) or PURGE of multiline styles, which are on main.
docs/parity-checklist.md is regenerated with cargo xtask parity.
No command changed an existing block's description; it could only be
given when the block was made or redefined (BLOCK, -BLOCK, entmake).
blocks.description (Modify > Object > Block Description...) changes
it: the block is the one the Block Editor edits, else the selected
reference's, else a name typed or a reference picked. In the Block
Editor, Properties with nothing selected shows the block's name and an
editable Description; BSAVE saves the new description with the block,
BCLOSE without saving drops it, and BSAVEAS gives it to the new block
only. A description is one line of up to 255 characters, and BLOCK and
-BLOCK now refuse one that is longer or has a line break.
Catalog rows for the new menu label are added in all 15 languages, and
docs/parity-checklist.md is regenerated with cargo xtask parity.
New lines, arcs, circles, points and lightweight polylines (for example
PLINE, POLYGON, DONUT and BOUNDARY) now take the THICKNESS system
variable as their 3D thickness. THICKNESS could already be set with
SETVAR and with the Properties palette when nothing is selected, but new
objects were always created with a thickness of 0, apart from RECTANG's
own Thickness option. RECTANG keeps that option, and single-line text
does not take THICKNESS, as in AutoCAD.
The new THICKNESS command is on Format > Thickness. Typed or picked from
the menu, it asks "Enter new value for THICKNESS <0.0000>:"; Enter keeps
the current value, and a negative value is accepted.
docs/parity-checklist.md is regenerated.
Tools > Express Tools > Break-line Symbol draws one polyline from the first point to the second with a zigzag break symbol at a picked location (the midpoint on Enter), as AutoCAD's Express Tool does. Size scales the symbol (times DIMSCALE), Extension runs the line past both points, and Block takes a block of the drawing whose two points on the Defpoints layer mark where the line meets the symbol. The built-in symbol is our own geometry. One undo step; the options are remembered for the session.
