History / node weld seams

Splines: five new pages, fifteen edits, two diagrams New: splines, draw-pen, edit-convert-to-spline, edit-cut-spline, edit-close-spline. Sidebar and Previous/Next chains wired for all five. Edits: selection gains anchor selection and the nudge multipliers; transform-tools gains the bound-anchor refusal; transform-mirror says a spline reflects as a copy; edit-reverse-direction says a spline turns its anchors around; import and file-import-svg say an import is a path until converted; layers-panel tells Pth from Spl; the Draw and Edit menu listings gain the four commands. Diagrams: the anchor and handle legend, and the four Pen gestures. node-flatten now says why it exists, which is the weld; node-weld-seams says its Across Groups default changed. Also carries the node page work that was sitting uncommitted.

Explode pins a Kind, cluster sockets carry an Order, and a seam is green Theo's v0.3.52 list, twenty-one pages. Explode gains the Kind pulldown and its ten values, an Outputs section split between Auto and pinned, and a section on why you would pin it: a cluster is edited with its inputs empty, so on Auto there are no sockets to wire. Separate XY is deprecated in favor of Explode with Kind set to Point, and documents are converted as they load. The six per-kind banners read Deprecated rather than retired. Cluster Input and Cluster Output carry Order. Cluster Output also gains In, which was missing from the page entirely, and its Outputs now say the node has none on the canvas. clusters.md replaces "drag one up or down to reorder" with the order being a number, not a position, and adds the paragraph on an untouched socket reading its real value rather than zero. Weld Seams gains Across Groups, a boolean on by default, and its alt text no longer calls the seam dashed. Flatten loses the claim that a tiled pattern needs a Flatten in front of Weld Seams, which Across Groups made untrue; the page now says what Flatten is for in general and does not mention Weld Seams at all. Sort gains key 5 Name and a paragraph for each of the six keys, written against sortKey and compareNames rather than from prose. Data Box describes nesting and names, which of the two kinds of name survives a flatten, and what the summary counts. Wallpaper Groups gains the fourth numbered step, which hands the cluster its cell vectors and had never been one, plus the cell-vector figure, the straight edge on a finite block, and cm and cmm counting in twos. Organizing gains a Buses section between Relays and Tidy Layout, covering both commands and why they are a pair, and Tidy Layout gains a paragraph on routing the lanes deliberately. Credits gains an "Ideas, not code" section with two debts that are not libraries. C.a.R., or Zirkel und Lineal, by René Grothmann at the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt, maintained since 1996: the live-construction model this program starts from, credited for the conventions and the direction. Orbi, by the Grasshopper Collective at Nuremberg Tech, for the named bus that a run of Relays carries. Upright becomes Deskew on three pages, matching the app's own label. Four diagrams rebuilt. The weld seam is solid seam green, not dashed accent blue, and the two cluster cards show the sockets the nodes actually have. Also removes .fuse_hidden0000002c00000001, a bridge artifact committed by mistake in 89f4ea9 on 2026-08-25.

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
