chain. That's much faster than going edge by edge.

boundary points, at least. That required some changes to what gets
passed around (for example because to project a point onto this
inexact curve, we need to know which two surfaces it trims so that
we can do a Newton's method on them).
And fix stupidity in the way that I calculated edge normals; I just
did normal in uv space, and there's no particular reason why that
would be normal in xyz. So edges in long skinny surfaces failed,
for example.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1990]

building the loops, and don't show force-hidden entities when that
entity gets copied.

separate polygon of coincident (with same or opposite normal)
faces; I instead test all the edges against the other shell, and
have extended the classify-against-shell stuff to handle those
cases.
And the normals are now perturbed a bit numerically, to either side
of the edge, to distinguish tangency from a coincident surface.
This seems to work fairly well, although things still tend to fail
when the piecewise linear tolerance is too coarse.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1964]
can show edges for both meshes and shells, and export them and
hidden line remove and all the usual stuff.
And fix the zoom to fit on startup, so that it considers hidden
entities too. That avoids the problem where things get generated at
stupid chord tolerance because no entities were visible and the
mesh of course did not yet exist.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1961]
triangulate correctly; don't screw up generating them, and make
sure that the ratpoly stuff doesn't blow up near the singularity.

parallel axis (which are always lines parallel to that axis).
Remove short pwl segments when possible, to avoid short edges that
get misclassified.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1952]
a grid of quads, with adaptive spacing. The quads that lie entirely
within the trim polygon are triangulated and knocked out from the
polygon, and then the polygon is triangulated.
That works okay, though rather slow. But there are issues with
surfaces of revolution that touch the axis, since they end up with
a singularity. That will require some thought.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1951]
cubics, so add routines to approximate a rational Bezier of any
degree in that form. And use those for EPS and SVG when applicable,
so now even stuff like ellipses gets exported smooth.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1938]
triangle join. And add controls to show and hide the solid model
edges (independently of the shaded mesh), and to suppress the
shaded triangles from SVG/EPS output.

* Rewrite surface handles in curves, so that Booleans beyond
the first don't screw up.
* If an intersection curve is identical to an existing curve
(as happens when faces are coincident), take the piecewise
linearization of the existing curve; this stops us from
screwing up when different shells are pwl'd at different
chord tols.
* Hook up the plane faces again.
* Remove coincident (parallel or anti-parallel) edges from the
coincident-face edge lists when doing Booleans; those may
happen if two faces are coincident with ours.
* Miscellaneous bugfixes.
It doesn't seem to screw up very much now, although tangent edges
(and insufficient pwl resolution) may still cause problems.

trimmed line), and plane-line intersection. Terminate the Bezier
surface subdivision on a chord tolerance, and that seems okay now.
And print info about the graphics adapter in the text window, could
be useful.
Also have a cylinder-detection routine that works; should special
case those surfaces in closed form since they are common, but not
doing it yet.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1928]
use that for surface-line intersections. That has major problems
with the heuristic on when to stop and do Newton polishing.
There's also an issue with all the Newton stuff when surfaces join
tangent.
And update the wishlist to reflect current needs.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1925]

And clean some other stuff, in particular simplifying whenever I
have to take the maximum (or minimum) of three quantities.

And don't regenerate the emphasized edges unless we have to;
specifically, don't do it when the only dirty group is the
drawing group.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1849]
And fix a bug; wasn't asking the user whether to save before
abandoning file when a new file was opened recent.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1830]
based on a chord tolerance. And rewrite the pwl circles to work
against a chord tolerance too (which they really were doing before,
but in funny units).
Also make "assemble" combine type do a union after interference
checking; was previously just copying, which meant that coplanar
faces could break subsequent operations.
And make right-clicking effectively toggle shift key, instead of
forcing it on; so you can pan or rotate with either right or middle
button.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1829]
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.

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]

version of the code from SketchFlat, with all arbitrary limits
removed.
The TTF text is its own entity, and that entity includes the
font file basename and the text. That's an extra 128 bytes in the
entity, which is around a 50% increase, kind of a shame. It was
simple, though.

that to try to find them if we can't find them by absolute path.
This is intended to make everything still work if you copy an
entire directory tree of files that import each other.
Also add a mechanism to not paint the scene if we're not sure it's
consistent; otherwise got some crashes on startup. And disable both
text and graphic window when displaying a modal dialog, wasn't
doing that always.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1808]
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]
So fix that, and now I can simplify what's exported for an entity.
And add an extra measurement (face-face distance/angle), and some
other little stuff.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1789]
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).
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1788]

up remap list search with a hash table, other stuff.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1786]
just the mesh, no derived entities (but I suppose that I could turn
all points into circles).
And fix some bugs where equations didn't get unique IDs, and make
it possible to lock on to the group's workplane automatically, if
you press W while free in 3d with no workplane selected.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1780]
up more. Also change from stupid linear search lists to sorted
binary search lists, remove a stupid bug where I double-generated
entities, and don't do the triple drawing of entities (since
offsets on the Z buffer were doing the same job already).
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1776]
and requests to a separate list. It's messy, because I have to make
a deep copy (e.g. of the remap list for the groups, or Expr *
stuff) of some things. Others (e.g. the polygon or mesh) will be
regenerated, so they should be discarded, but they must not get
double-freed.
In any case, works superficially. And fix a few memory leaks
unrelated to this, and remove some dead code.
[git-p4: depot-paths = "//depot/solvespace/": change = 1775]
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.
