The lines of a wrapped or multi-line dynamic text were always centred,
whatever horizontal alignment the user picked, on the folio and in the
symbol editor alike. Follow the horizontal alignment instead.
The alignment still also sets the anchor point, as before, and saved
positions are unchanged. Existing multi-line texts set to the default
left alignment are now drawn left-aligned instead of centred.
Issue #1155

A dragged shape put its pos() on the grid. pos() cannot be seen, and it
is off the drawn corner whenever the shape was drawn or resized with
Ctrl held, or rotated, so such a shape stayed off the grid however it
was dragged. Worse, Snap to grid (previous commit) moves pos() off the
grid to put the corner on it, so the next drag undid the snap.
QetShapeItem now overrides setPos(), which only the drag calls through
the virtual: dragged alone or with other shapes only, the top-left
corner of the drawn outline goes on the grid. Dragged together with
anything else it snaps by pos() as before, because the rest of the
selection follows this shape's movement and a corner correction would
take the symbols off the grid. Ctrl still drags freely: the snap goes
through Diagram::snapToGrid(), which reads it.

The seven Edit > Align commands (Snap to grid and the six align
commands, discussion #1069) had no icons: the menu, the context menu,
command search and the shortcut bar showed them as bare text.
They are pixel-grid SVGs in ico/scalable/ drawn like the folio and
Add PDF icons: 24 pixel canvas, art on the inner 22 pixel grid, one
currentColor ink so misc/make_icon_themes.py writes the dark copies.
Each align icon is a guide line with two boxes of different lengths
against it; the centre ones show the guide only between the boxes.
Snap to grid is a faint grid with one box sitting exactly on a cell.
The boxes have a solid outline and a 35 % tinted inside, which keeps
the guide the strongest mark at 16 pixels.
Names follow the freedesktop icon names (align-horizontal-left, ...).

Rectangles, ellipses, lines and polygons were left out of the Align
submenu: with only shapes selected every command was greyed out, and a
shape outside a group was ignored when aligning it with a symbol.
Shapes now take part like pictures. Their edges are the shape as drawn
(the new QetShapeItem::sceneOutlineRect(), without the pen, the 6 px
selection margin or the wider hover outline; the old code used
sceneBoundingRect() for grouped shapes and so aligned them 6 px off).
The point that goes on the grid is the top-left corner of that box: a
rectangle's corner, an ellipse's box. pos() is not used, because a
shape drawn with Ctrl held or rotated has its corners off the grid
while pos() is on it.
The menu's enable rule now counts what the command counts, a group as
one. Before, two symbols in one group enabled the six align commands,
which then did nothing and only said so in the status bar.

Grouping two symbols and then locking one of them (Lock position in its
properties) left the group in a broken state: dragging the unlocked symbol
pulled it away while the locked one stayed, and dragging the locked one
did nothing. The move simply dropped locked items, so the rest of the
group went without them.
A group with a locked member now does not move at all, whichever member
is dragged, and the status bar says why. This is the rule the item-groups
proposal (discussion #1070) set out for this case. The same rule applies
to the arrow keys and to the Align commands, which share
DiagramContent::removeNonMovableItems().
Also fixed on the way, for a plain selection with a locked symbol: a wire
between the locked symbol and one being dragged kept its user-placed text
moving with the dragged end. Such a wire is now redrawn only, as a wire to
an unselected symbol already is.
Checked in the GUI on two symbols joined by a wire (grafcet example),
master against this branch, positions read from the saved file:
- drag the unlocked member: master moves it 190 px, this branch moves
nothing and shows the message
- arrow keys on the selected group (3 runs each): master moves the
unlocked member, this branch nothing
- the same two symbols ungrouped: both move the unlocked one, as before
- user-placed wire text: master shifts it 190 px, this branch keeps it
ctest: 34/34.

Group and Ungroup are enabled in slot_updateComplexActions(), which ran
only when the selection changed. Grouping, ungrouping and undoing either
leave the selection as it is, and so does right-clicking an item that is
already selected, so the actions kept the state from before. The
right-click menu hides disabled actions, so it went on showing Group on a
selection that was now one group (and Ungroup after ungrouping), and the
one that would work was not in the menu at all.
Diagram::setItemGroup() is the one place an item's group changes (group,
ungroup, undo, redo, paste), so it now emits itemGroupChanged() and the
editor refreshes its actions on it, beside the selectionChanged
connection.
Checked in the GUI on two free texts, saving after each step: right-click
> Group, right-click again, Ctrl+Z, right-click again. Before, the second
and third right-clicks offered Group again and did nothing (both saves
still grouped). After, they offered Ungroup and ungrouped (0 grouped
texts in both saves); Group, Ungroup, Group also round-trips.

The Windows portable ZIP ships "Lancer QET_qt6.bat", but the script only
looked for "Lancer QET.bat", so it stopped at its first check and never
registered anything. It now tries the ZIP's name first and falls back to
the installer's.
It also wrote to HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT, which a standard (non-admin) Windows
account cannot create keys in. It now writes to
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes: per-user, no elevation needed, and
Windows merges it into HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT for that user.
qet_uninstall_file_associations.reg removes the HKCU keys first, then the
old HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT ones as before.
Tested under Wine 10 on the git10275 nightly ZIP: the old script aborts
("Lancer QET.bat ... n'a pas ete trouve"), the new one registers .qet,
.elmt and .titleblock under HKCU with nothing under HKLM, the uninstall
file removes them, and the "Lancer QET.bat" fallback works. Wine does not
enforce admin rights, so the non-admin case itself is not proven there.
Reported in #1148.

The first fill from the document stored the label and wire text saved in
the file. QElectroTech saves what it last worked out, not what the formula
gives now: K%total-%id saved as K1-1 on a 3-folio project is K3-1 on the
folios, and the same for a wire's formula. So the document fill disagreed
with the folio fill on any file whose folios had been added or moved.
AssignVariables now works from a FormulaContext: the folio's number,
index, total, plant, location, title-block and project variables, and the
element's grid cell and prefix or the wire's four properties. The Diagram
overload fills one from a built folio, the database fills one from the
file, and both call the same evaluation.
Also brought in line with Diagram::fromXml(): an element Element::valideXml()
rejects is skipped with its wires; a folio where two elements number their
terminals alike (Element::fromXml() refuses one, by geometry), a frozen
formula wire text, and the older sequential-number attributes are left to
the folios. Each folio's border now starts from the defaults a new Diagram
has, not the previous folio's values.
tst_databasefromdocument: formulasAreWorkedOut (every variable kind, stale
saved values), unbuiltElementIsLeftOut, clashingTerminalIdsFallBack. Each
fails with its fix removed.

A project saved as "my.project.qet" showed "my" in every title block
cell using %{projectfilename}, and "my" again in %{savedfilename} after
a save. QETProject used QFileInfo::baseName(), which stops at the first
"."; completeBaseName() strips only the ".qet" suffix. Same fix as
#725 made for the PDF export's file name.
Verified headlessly on examples/industrial.qet copied to
my.project.qet, with a title block cell set to %{projectfilename}:
--export-svg shows "my" on master and "my.project" with this change,
on all 50 folios. For %{savedfilename}, a --run script calling
qet.save("") twice writes "my" on master and "my.project" with this
change. ctest 32/32.
Not changed: write() updates the saved* variables after the file is
written, so the values stored in a file are those of the save before.

The project database -- behind parts lists, summary tables and the wiring
list -- was filled by walking the built folios: every element and
conductor object of every scene. Filling it from the document the project
was just read from instead is what the database needs before a project
could be opened without building every folio (qelectrotech-docker
DB-FROM-XML-SCOPE.md).
updateDB(document), called by readProjectXml(), fills diagram,
diagram_info, element, element_info, terminal and conductor from the
document, through the code the folios use: a BorderTitleBlock read from
each folio's XML gives the title-block values and each element's grid
cell, the embedded collection gives each definition, and the binders are
shared with the live path. Shapes, texts and pictures still come from the
folios (their boxes need fonts and pens).
It falls back to the folios, saying why in the log, when the document
does not carry what that needs: an item without a saved uuid (older files
-- the folios derive them on load), a conductor naming its ends the older
way, a %autonum folio number, a terminal showing its master's label, a
missing or unbuildable definition. A symbol label computed from a formula
is the one saved in the file, which QElectroTech writes as it computes it
on every save. QET_DATABASE_FROM_FOLIOS=1 forces the folio path.
tst_databasefromdocument saves every example once, then fills both ways
and requires identical tables (24/24, filled from the document each
time), and checks that an older file falls back with its reason. Red when
the document path is made to write a wrong grid cell. Database phase of
loading unchanged: industrial.qet 0.146 s vs 0.160 s, Polonez 0.040 s vs
0.038 s (median of 5).
QETProject::projectWideProperties() is split out of
updateDiagramsFolioData() so both fills use the same title-block context.

The configuration names "python" or "python3", or the Python the Windows
installer can add. When none of those can run, the assistant fails with
an error far from the cause, so the dialog now says so in bold, with what
to do: tick "Python pour l'assistant IA" in the installer or install
Python (Windows), or install Python 3 from the system's packages.
Windows 10 and 11 put a python.exe in WindowsApps that only opens the
Microsoft Store, so a PATH search alone reports Python where there is
none. A result there is reported as possibly that shortcut. Backslashes
are converted explicitly, not with QDir::fromNativeSeparators(), which
leaves them alone off Windows and so could not be tested here.
tst_aiassistantsetup: 17 cases (8 new: the bundled Python is taken
without looking on PATH; none, python.org, the Store shortcut with either
separator, and a Linux folder named WindowsApps). Each of the 4 new rules
was removed in turn and the test failed. ctest 32/32. In the GUI, the
same install layout shows the warning with no python3 on PATH and no
warning with it.

On Windows every tool that starts QElectroTech (qet_export, qet_edit,
qet_query, qet_check, qet_continuity, qet_project_new) failed, for two
reasons:
- The server ran a copy of the executable from a temporary folder, to get
its own SingleApplication key. A Windows program loads its DLLs from its
own folder, so the copy died before main() with 0xC0000135 (DLL not
found). Every flag the server passes is a CLI export flag or --run, and
main.cpp handles both before it constructs SingleApplication, so on
Windows the original is now run. The copy stays elsewhere.
- It set QT_QPA_PLATFORM=offscreen. The Windows packages ship only the
qwindows platform plugin, so Qt found none and stopped at a message box
nobody could close: every call hung until its timeout. Windows now keeps
its default platform; the export flags and --run open no window.
Checked under Wine (qet-wine-smoke) on the fork's CI Windows build, run
through python.org's embeddable Python: before, qet_export ended with
exit 3221225781; after, a PDF export, a qet_query (98 elements, as on
Linux) and a qet_edit placing a common:// element all succeed. The hang
was isolated by launching the same export from bash (works) and from
Python with one change at a time: only dropping QT_QPA_PLATFORM made it
work. Four unit tests pin both choices per platform; each fails with its
fix removed. Suite 262/262 none skipped on Linux.

diagram_info.date -- and project_summary_view.date, which the summary
table dialog queries -- held the folio date read back from the title
block's text: QLocale::system().toDate() of the string
updateDiagramContextForTitleBlock() writes in the locale's short format.
Where that format has a two-digit year (en_US "M/d/yy") Qt reads the year
back as 19xx, so 741.qet's 2010-09-21 became 1910-09-21, and so did every
dated folio of the 24 examples (109 of 109).
bindDiagramInfoValues() now binds the folio's own date,
BorderTitleBlock::date(), the value that text was made from. A folio set
to show the current date or none gives the same date as before.
tst_dbfoliodate runs --run on examples/741.qet under LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
and expects 2010-09-21 from project_summary_view: 1910-09-21 without this
change.

A mutation audit of the functions no audit had covered (tests needing no
QElectroTech): these 13 caught 153 of 337 planted bugs (45 %). With these
tests, 322 (96 %). qet_check was at 26/59 and qet_continuity at 24/37
even with the binary tests, since those look at a finding or two.
- qet_check / qet_continuity: _run_qet replaced by a stub returning chosen
log lines, so the whole answer is compared -- summary counts, "ok",
passed, check_failures, each finding's count, note and sampled rows,
sorting by severity, folio_number, the launch hint carried through,
the folio argument in the script, folio bounds, and lines that only
look like ours.
- qet_element_build / qet_element_info: the written header, names, kind
information and terminals, and the reported result, key for key; the
refusals; geometry worked out by hand; every part kind's extent and
written attributes; number formatting.
- qet_element_search and its index: the index entry key for key, the
cache, ranking (exact name, then first word, then length), the default
and given limits.
The 15 left are equivalent: timeouts and output limits, a ranking
constant that only has to exceed 0, and a containment check the 5-unit
margin keeps from ever failing. Tests only; 282/282.

A dialog showing the configuration an AI assistant needs to start
QElectroTech's MCP server (misc/qet-mcp), with this installation's paths
filled in: pick the assistant (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, GitHub
Copilot in VS Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Codex CLI, LM Studio), the
drawings folder the assistant may use, and whether it may edit (off by
default). It says where the text goes, warns that text inside a project
from someone else can steer an assistant, and copies the text. It writes
nothing and starts nothing.
AiAssistantSetup finds the server beside the running program, in the two
places the packages put it (<root>/mcp beside <root>/bin on Windows,
<prefix>/share/qelectrotech/mcp beside <prefix>/bin otherwise), and the
Python the Windows installer can add. When there is none, the dialog says
the server is not installed with this version and links the guide.
The configuration is written with QJsonDocument, so Windows paths are
escaped correctly; Codex CLI gets TOML.
tst_aiassistantsetup (9 cases): both layouts, no server, the bundled
Python on Windows only, valid JSON for every JSON client with paths that
parse back unchanged, the "servers" key for VS Code, "type" only where
wanted, editing off unless allowed, escaped TOML. Each of 8 rules was
removed in turn and the test failed. ctest 32/32.
Checked in the GUI (Xvfb): Help menu opens it; from a build tree it
reports the server missing and disables Copy; from an install layout it
fills the paths, and the text Copy put on the clipboard, used unchanged
as a Claude Code configuration, ran a real qet_project_info call.

Most Windows users have no Python, which the MCP server needs. The
installer now offers "Python for the AI assistant", unticked by default:
the official embeddable package from python.org (3.14.7, ~12 MB, no
registry, removed with QElectroTech), in <folder>\mcp\python. The
portable folder and the MSI, which pack all of files/, carry it.
The workflow downloads it pinned by version and by python.org's own
sha256 for the file (checked against python.org's download API), and
fails the build on a mismatch. The script stays plain text beside it.
Checked under Wine (64-bit, qet-wine-smoke image), on an installer built
with makensis 3.10 (0 warnings, strings in all 29 languages):
- a silent default install puts mcp\qet_mcp.py in place and no Python;
the same installer with the section ticked by default installs it, so
the check tells the two apart;
- the installed Python runs the installed server: 15 tools listed,
qet_project_info on an example answers as on Linux, and the server
finds bin\QElectroTech.exe and elements\ by itself.
Not checked: a real Windows machine; the CI download step (fork run).

The MCP server (misc/qet-mcp) was only reachable from a source checkout.
It now ships with every package, next to the program, and finds that
QElectroTech and its element collection from where it sits:
- make install (Linux distributions, snap, flatpak):
<prefix>/share/qelectrotech/mcp/qet_mcp.py, executable, with its README.
- Windows installer: a new "AI assistant (MCP)" component (on by default,
~200 KB), installed to <folder>\mcp. The workflow stages files/mcp, so
the portable folder and the MSI, which packs all of files/, carry it too.
The server learns the Windows layout (<root>/mcp beside <root>/bin, whose
program is QElectroTech.exe, and <root>/elements), in addition to
<prefix>/share/qelectrotech/mcp. A copy saved anywhere else, even beside
some bin/ folder, is not taken for an installation.
The installer strings are given in all 29 installer languages: French
translated, the others in English until translated, which is what NSIS
would fall back to anyway but without its warning 6040 per language.
Checked: make install into a scratch prefix, then from the installed
script with nothing configured and no qelectrotech on PATH, an SVG export
and a qet_edit placing a common:// element both succeeded. makensis 3.10
compiles the installer with 0 warnings before and after (removing the
French description gives warning 6040), and the installer contains
mcp/qet_mcp.py. Suite 274/274 none skipped; each layout check was
removed in turn and a test failed. Snap/flatpak: installed by the same
CMake rule; launching their QElectroTech from outside is untested.

qet_export, qet_edit, qet_query, qet_continuity, qet_check and
qet_project_new took the QElectroTech executable as a per-call argument
and ran whatever executable file it named, with the call's own paths as
arguments. The workspace policy exempted it as configuration, but it is
chosen by the model on every call, so text inside a project could steer
an assistant into starting another program.
The server now finds QElectroTech itself: QET_BINARY, then the install it
ships in (<prefix>/share/qelectrotech/mcp/), then PATH. "binary" becomes
optional; when given it must be that same file (after resolving
symlinks) or one listed in QET_MCP_BINARIES. QET_MCP_ALLOW_ANY_BINARY=1
restores the old behaviour, as QET_MCP_ALLOW_ANY_PATH does for paths.
"elements_dir" defaults to the installed collection and, when given, must
be in the workspace, that collection, or QET_MCP_ELEMENTS.
Both checks live in enforce_path_policy(), the one place tool arguments
enter. test_configuration_paths_are_exempt asserted the old exemption and
is replaced by BinaryPolicy (13 tests) and a stdio test of the original
reproduction. Each new check was removed in turn and the tests failed.

tools/qet-mcp-audit/mutate.py over the code changed since #1095
(_build_script, the diff helpers, _parse_script_output, tool_items and
the wire-end keys of #1118), tests needing no QElectroTech only: master
f530b7636's suite noticed 531 of 578 planted bugs (92 %). With these
tests, 568 (98 %). The 10 left are equivalent: rsplit("/", 1) vs 2, a
1e-6 tolerance compared with < or <=, a one-letter orientation sliced
[:1] or [:2], branches that only touch parts without terminals, and the
placeholder terminal 0 a conductor uuid overwrites.
- Every argument kind refuses what it cannot take, before any launch:
malformed indices, bool, points and nodes, search_and_replace with an
unknown kind or conductor field or an empty element_info field,
"conductor" given with "element" or "terminal" alone, an op that is not
an object -- and the same kinds accept what they should.
- _parse_script_output reports capabilities (none logged = unknown, not
"nothing missing"), notes on the right op, save and stopped_early;
ignores a line without the marker even when it would parse, and a line
of a kind it does not know.
- A uuid wire end in a column of terminals (same x) keys like the
numbered one: the match is on x, y and orientation together.
Tests only; 264/264.

The "$id" of an add_folio or insert_folio held the index the folio had
when it was made, so a later insert_folio or remove_folio in the same
qet_edit run shifted it, and ops naming "$id" edited the wrong folio --
the case #1115 fixed for folios given by uuid, left open for these.
The script now also keeps such a folio's uuid (qet.folioUuid()) and
resolves "$id", where an op takes a folio, through qet.folioIndex() at
the moment it is used. On a build without folioUuid() it falls back to
the stored index, as before, and nothing new is required of the binary.
The op's reported result is still the index.
Test: add_folio "$f" (index 1), insert_folio at 0, set_folio_title
"$f": the title lands on the third folio -- on the second without this
change. Two script-generation tests updated for the new expression.
255/255.
