Oliver HagmannandClaude Opus 5.5 4cd646811a M5: drag a line's ends (and a polygon's corners) to change its length and angle ...

Once drawn, a line or arrow could be moved but not changed: selected, it showed a frame and
no handles, so a wrong length or angle meant drawing it again. A selected line, connected
lines, polygon or cloud now has a handle on each end or corner instead of the frame; dragging
one moves that point (Shift holds it to 45° from the point before), the new shape is drawn
while dragging, and the release is one undo step. The drawing tools keep drawing from an end
(a new line starts there); the Select and Fill & Sign tools pick the handles up.

pdfcraft_annot::set_points sets /L or /Vertices, lets /Rect follow with room for the width
and arrowheads (the rule a new comment is drawn with) and draws the appearance anew;
measurements keep the points they measured, locked comments their shape. Edit::ReshapeAnnotation
("Reshape comment"), comment_edit `points`; the comment list (Summary, DocInfo, comment_list)
carries a line's ends and a polygon's corners.
