Dragging a user slice's edge or corner handle with the Slice Selection
tool never snapped, while drawing a slice with the Slice tool snaps to
the grid, to whole pixels, to the art and to the ruler guides.
The handle drag now gathers its targets when the handle is pressed and
snaps what the handle moves through PointSnap::snap_scale, as the
Selection tool's bounding-box handles do: to the nearest gridline with
Snap to Grid, to whole pixels with Snap to Pixel, to the art and the
artboards with Smart Guides, and with Smart Guides off to the art's
anchors and the ruler guides with Snap to Point. Then a shown, unlocked
ruler guide within 5 px moves the side or corner onto it, as the Slice
tool moves a drawn slice's corner onto a guide. Shift still keeps the
proportions, and Alt still resizes about the center.

In a rotated view the resize and rotate cursors were the ones for an
unturned view. With the view turned 90°, the right-middle handle of a
selection's bounding box shows at the middle of the box's bottom edge
and drags up and down, but its cursor was the left-right arrow. This
affected the Selection, Free Transform, Artboard, Slice Selection, Crop
Image, Perspective Grid and Perspective Selection tools, ruler guides,
and the spread handle of a freeform gradient.
Now each of these cursors turns with the view to the nearest 45°. The
Selection tool and the Perspective Selection tool turn the handle's
direction by the view's angle before they round it to a cursor.
ToolContext::view_angle reads the view's angle from the screen frame,
and Cursor::turned turns a resize or rotate cursor by it. The new
Cursor::rotate_about_in_view turns the pointer's direction from the
center by the view before it picks one of the rotate cursor's eight
directions. Cursor::rotate_about keeps its signature and behavior. At
0° every cursor is as it was.

A ruler guide goes on the current layer (guide.add {layer}), shows,
hides, locks and is deleted with its layer, is listed in the Layers panel
as a row that selects it, and moves to another layer (guide.setLayer).
Guides on a hidden layer neither show nor snap; those on a locked layer
can't be picked.

- `Targets::align_rects` tells `snap_point_with` an axis lined up even when
nothing moved or Alignment Guides hide the line, so the "align" label stays.
- Free Transform's move offset is a measurement label (as the Selection
tool's), its scale/rotate readouts Transform Tools; slice move/resize
readouts follow Measurement Labels.
- Snap to Point (Smart Guides off) keeps the default look for moves too, as
for drawn points and guides.
- Test: guides dragged out of a ruler (#451) follow Snapping Tolerance,
Anchor/Path Labels and Measurement Labels; docs/mcp.md.

Color, Alignment Guides, Anchor/Path Labels, Measurement Labels,
Transform Tools, Object Highlighting and Snapping Tolerance are read:
- tools: `guides::GuideStyle` on `Targets` (`styled(cx)`) colours the
lines and labels and leaves them out when their option is off, the
snap itself unchanged; `ToolContext` gains the six fields and
`snap_tol()`, replacing the 5 px literal for every smart guide snap
(drawn points, moves, bounding-box handles, ruler guides, artboards,
reference points). The tools gate their `Overlay::Measure` readouts on
Measurement Labels (drawing, moving, ruler guides, artboards) or
Transform Tools (scaling, rotating, Free Transform, transform tools).
- engine: `with_tool_cx` fills them from `Prefs` (the colour parsed, magenta
as fallback); the colour's default is `#ff3dfc`, what the tools drew.
- ui-egui: the hover outline needs Object Highlighting and Smart Guides.
- Tests in tools (guides, select), engine (tests_prefs) and the canvas;
docs/mcp.md and ROADMAP.

Guides dragged out of a ruler did not snap at all (only Shift to the ruler's
ticks): they now go through the engine (`Session::ruler_guide`, a
`NewGuide` previewing `guide.add`, one undo step) and snap as a moved guide
does: with Smart Guides to the edges, centres (so the sides' midpoints) and
anchors of the art and of the artboards, labelled; with Smart Guides off,
View > Snap to Point pulls new and moved guides onto anchors. Moving art
with the Selection tool already snapped flush to artboard edges and centres
with Smart Guides on; a test now covers it.
Artboard guides: `Guide.artboard` holds an artboard id (written only when
set, so canvas guides save as before and older files open unchanged).
`guide.add {artboard}` makes one, `guide.list` reports it; a guide dragged
out of a ruler with the Artboard tool belongs to the active artboard. It is
drawn, picked and snapped to across its artboard only, moves with it
(`artboard.move`, a pure move in `artboard.setProps`, `artboard.rearrange`),
is copied with it (`artboard.duplicate`, Alt-drag copy) and deleted with it
(`artboard.delete`, the guide selection kept in step).
Guides as Layers rows with their own lock and hide (part d) stay open: ruler
guides are not layer nodes; Lock Guides locks them all, and Make Guides
paths are Layers rows already. Listed in the ROADMAP parity row.

The Slice tool (Shift+K) drags out a user slice (Shift square, Alt from the
centre, snapping to ruler guides) as one undo step through
object.slice.create. The Slice Selection tool selects slices (Shift
toggles, object.slice.select), moves them (object.slice.move; object
slices move their objects), resizes a user slice by its handles
(object.slice.setRect), opens Slice Options on a double click and deletes
with Delete (object.slice.delete). Hidden or locked slices can't be
picked. Both tools have cursors drawn in code.
