Improve convergence of constraints involving parallel vectors, by using the initial numerical guess of whichever vector is already known to choose our projection planes. And add a mechanism to defer showing the text window or regenerating, in order to simplify dependencies on valid actives. Also yes/no/cancel when about to abandon an unsaved file, and a bugfix when rotating a rot/trans point. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1772]

Add DXF export. The complexity comes from all the different ways to specify the plane from which we want to grab the triangles. Shared edges are then removed with the same code used to check for watertight meshes, and the remaining edges are assembled into polygons. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1823]

adaptive pwl for polynomial curves
Add reference dimensions, add user-programmable lighting, and add a configuration screen where all this can be specified. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1783]

some kind of rounding / chamfer
remove back button in browser?
Add a special constraint type for comments; no equations, just user-visible text. And make points hoverable/selectable even when GW.showPoints is false, and zoom to fit before regenerating on file open, because then we're at the right zoom level (and will use the right pwl tolerance).

auto-generate circles and faces when lathing
Add sweeps. The user specifies a trajectory and a section, in two separate groups. The section is swept normal to the trajectory, producing a mesh. I'm doing the triangles only now, not copying over any entities. Also fix a bug in the PNG export; rows are 4-aligned, so that was breaking when the width of the image wasn't divisible by four. Also fix a bug in lathes, where it generated overlapping triangles for one segment. And change the groups to record both "this mesh", the contribution due to the extrude/lathe/whatever, and the "running mesh", that we get after applying the requested Boolean op between "this mesh" and the previous group's "running mesh". I'll use that to make step and repeats step the mesh too. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1801]

copy the section geometry to other end when sweeping
Make step and repeats step the mesh, as well as the entities. This requires new entitiy types for the faces, by translation or by axis-angle rotation. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1802]

cylindrical faces
Add a special constraint type for comments; no equations, just user-visible text. And make points hoverable/selectable even when GW.showPoints is false, and zoom to fit before regenerating on file open, because then we're at the right zoom level (and will use the right pwl tolerance).

incremental regen of entities?
If any equations are soluble in a single variable, then handle them separately, even before doing the rank test. In some cases, that's a huge speedup. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1811]

my own plane poly triangulation code
Add routines to remove T intersections from the mesh, which are introduced by the bsp routines. It's usually, though not always, possible to generate a watertight mesh. The occasions where it's not look ugly, floating point issues, no quick fix. And use those to generate a list of edges where two different faces meet, which I can emphasize for cosmetic reasons (and some UI to specify whether to do that, and with what color). And make the right mouse button rotate the model, since that was previously doing nothing. [git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1821]
