The weave nodes, Undo and Redo, Revert to Saved, and prose for 17 commands
Pages for Weave, Crossing Census and Stability Sweep, which nothing documented:
the Calculate button and why evaluate cannot solve, that the result is not saved
in the document, that Tol comes from the sweep plateau, and that the census
counts four-end crossings only where Weave also reads an eight-end tangency.
Undo and Redo get a page, one for both commands: two histories, one per window,
a hundred steps each, acting on the window you are in. Revert to Saved gets one
too, including that it clears both undo histories, so a revert cannot be undone.
The command prose pass is finished, 35 of 35. Ten Draw pages, five Edit, two
Transform, each written against the source rather than the old one-liner. They
turned up behaviour nothing had written down: a shape owns only the corner
points the tool itself made, a guide crossing gives a free point and not a bound
one, Directed Rectangle's third click is a distance that leaves a width handle,
and Clean Up asks for a merge tolerance and skips merges that would destroy a
derived point.
selection.md gains a Select Same section covering all six commands, which had
only ever had a row each.
Every one of the ten pages the menu-order rule governs now carries the app's own
rows in the app's own order, and Schematic finally has its icon.
Docs: Explode rewrite, clipboard commands, two new nodes, Data flyout nav
Command pages
- New: Copy, Paste, Paste in Place, Duplicate in Place, Copy Style
- New: Line: Tangent to Two Circles
- Corrected: Duplicate now says independent copies rather than shared
points; Tangent explains that every answer is ghosted and the nearest
one is kept; Detach no longer contradicts itself
- Prose pass items 11 to 18: Move, Arc, Group, Snap to Guides, Snap to
Intersections, Point on Object, Detach, Elliptical Arc
- Select Parents and Select Children added to selection.md, with rows
on menu-select.md
Node pages
- New: Select Alternating, Weld Seams
- Explode rewritten: a section and its own card for every kind it takes
apart, plus a note on the six retired per-type nodes
- Compare and Select by Condition documented, with cards and diagrams
- nodes-data.md rebuilt as five flyout sections matching the interface,
each with its icon and a line on why those nodes group together
Two corrections against the shipped code
- Select by Condition: an item is a top-level member, not a single
shape, so a member holding several shapes goes to one side whole
(#628). The page had described the behavior it replaced.
- Export as DXF: a color with an alpha channel keeps its color and
loses only the transparency, which DXF cannot carry. The page had
claimed the transparency survives. The palette-merge paragraph gained
the two limits the exporter applies: only layers Locus named itself
are merged, and the annotation layers never fold in with the drawing
colors. Both checked against src-tauri/src/export.rs.
Navigation
- _Sidebar.md Data block regrouped into the five flyouts
- Six retired Explode entries dropped, four pages moved to Construct
- All 26 previous and next chains rebuilt from the sidebar as the single
source of truth
Assets
- 17 icons, 7 effect diagrams, 15 node cards
Docs: American spellings, Explode retirement, new nodes, prose pass
American spellings throughout. 346 replacements across the public text:
centre, colour, grey where it was not the noun, millimetre, behaviour,
organise and the rest. Gray keeps its E, which is how Blossom spells it.
No UI label in the app was ever British, so the wiki and the app agree.
Explode is now one node. node-explode.md is new and answers for every
shape, taking a group apart a layer at a time. The six per-type pages
stay reachable and each carries a retirement notice pointing at it;
documents built with them still open and still work.
Two new node pages, Compare and Select by Condition, both with an icon
pending note for Vera.
Export grouping documented in preferences, export-svg and export-dxf:
Group by Layers and Group by Outline Color, alongside hairline black.
Math gains Absolute Value. Tangent rewritten to the new behaviour:
options shown, nearest one chosen, click again for the other.
Select Parents and Select Children written into selection.md from
Theo's spec, with two rows in menu-select.md and dead icon references.
Not shipped yet. Both ADD to the selection rather than replacing it.
Node prose pass. Every node page now carries at least a short
explanation, on the principle that a reader landed there because the
interface did not explain itself. Command pages are getting the same
treatment, 14 of 34 so far.
First-pattern figures rebuilt. The Slider and Math wires crossed on the
way into Rotate, which made the Home page banner read as though Angle
and Repeat were swapped. They were not; the layout was wrong. Also
dropped a degree sign from the Angle socket label, which the app does
not have.
