Changed

  • Open lines can now be offset. The offset dialog labels open-line choices as Side A, Side B, and Both sides, defaults open lines to Both sides, and shows a live canvas preview before applying the offset.
  • Selected horizontal and vertical lines are much easier to grab and move. Resize and rotate handles no longer steal the drag target from the line's move handle.
  • The startup failure dialog can now offer to send a captured crash report when the app opens but the interface cannot load.
  • The Linux app has additional startup hardening for Wayland and WebView graphics failures.
  • Scan-angle bounds checks now report the actual lower-bound problem instead of describing negative coordinates as exceeding the far edge of the bed.
