    definitions, and combined G01/G02/G03 commands.
  • Added validated single- and multi-quadrant arc interpolation, optional I/J offsets, correctly stroked full circles,
    and arc support inside regions.
  • Replaced the aperture regex parser with allocation-conscious validated parsing and fixed clipped rectangle flashes
    near image boundaries.

    vertex validation, and rotation around the macro origin for every primitive.
  • Consolidated duplicated primitive expression logic and reduced temporary allocations throughout parsing and drawing.
  • Capture the coordinate sign so negative plots are placed correctly. by @The-Bootloader (#1133)

  • Add anchors to PCB render
• Excellon:
  • Reworked coordinate and tool parsing to handle declared formats, signed and decimal coordinates, zero suppression,
    omitted axes, and malformed input without regex allocations or parser exceptions.
  • Added incremental coordinates, repeats, routed linear slots, G85 slots, M71/M72 units, and G90/G91 positioning.
  • Fixed FILE_FORMAT fractional precision, asymmetric pixel scaling, duplicate tools, stale parser state, and
    invariant-culture serialization.
  • Added slot rendering and deterministic sizing validation.
• GCode:
  • Audited the complete GCode builder, command, and layer-state implementations.
  • Fixed invariant-culture output, command equality/hash consistency, line counting, compact command parsing, numeric
    validation, LED-off detection, PWM scaling, sync-delay detection, and layer bounds/state resets.
  • Fixed relative retract acceleration, zero-valued retract suppression, event arguments, Klipper setup idempotence,
    malformed thumbnail handling, and out-of-range layer detection.
  • Reduced rebuild work by reusing movement lists, replacing quadratic remaining-time sums with a running total, and
    avoiding thumbnail chunk allocations.
• File formats:
  • Reduced GCode thumbnail and FlashForge SVGX path-building allocations with bounded stack-backed and sparse DotNext
    buffer writers.
  • Made FlashForge SVG coordinate serialization culture-invariant.

  • Add Goo V5.0, V5.1 and V5.2 support by @AlchMeow (#1129) fixes #1114
  • Refactor RLE encode/decode across all file formats to use BufferWriterSlim<byte> instead of List<byte>, reducing
    allocations
  • Replace List<byte> layer line buffers with MemoryOwner<byte> using ArrayPool for pooled, zero-copy layer

    selected output extension.
• Suggestions:
  • Audited every suggestion for validation, cancellation, progress ownership, malformed profile handling, and avoidable
