Cleanup owed: the fix session littered `CH340G_v2..v8` libs and `CH340G_Board..Board15` docs in Downloads and many open tabs. +## 6k. LAN7800 creative import (2026-08-30) — variants, display modes, footprint models, board proof++New verbs (all agent-lane, all measured): `altium_build_footprint {libraryPath, spec}` (spec from `tools/kicad2altium.py`: pads incl. duplicate-designator through-hole vias, roundrect %, tracks/arcs/filled discs on named mech layers), `altium_build_symbol_modes {libraryPath, spec}` (ONE component, N display modes from `tools/symbol_modes.py`), `altium_symbol_mode {mode}` (editor-driven: `Sch:ToggleComponentDisplayMode Action=Mode0/Next` — `Comp.DisplayMode` changes data only), `altium_add_models {models[], params, comment, description}` (N PCBLIB implementations = Altium footprint variants; the user picks the current footprint on the placed part), `altium_normalize_bodies`, `altium_test_board {footprintName, wMm, hMm, assigns, stubs}`, `altium_board_shape {x0Mm,y0Mm,wMm,hMm}` (process `PCB:PlaceBoardOutline Mode=BOARDOUTLINE_FROM_SEL_PRIMS` on 4 temp selected tracks — `BoardOutline.PointCount/Segments` is a silent no-op, `.Clear` halts), `altium_swap_footprint {footprintName, libraryPath, assigns}` (remove + per-primitive re-place at the same x/y, nets re-assigned by designator — tracks untouched, so wiring survives), `altium_pcb_report` gained `padsBboxMil`, `nets`, `tracks`.++**Dialog pre-emption (John: a dismissed dialog is a defect).** The DelphiScript debugger breaks on ANY raised exception even inside Try/Except — a raise IS an Error modal. `ReadAll` now probes with `FileOpen` (returns -1, never raises) before `LoadFromFile`. A halted command leaves `PCBServer.PreProcess` open = "a command is currently active" → save draws the save-a-copy Warning: `TxClear` (unbalanced `PostProcess`, harmless) runs at agent start, before every save, and after every recover. Undeclared identifiers hit this session: `BottomXSize`/`Mid*` pad sizes, `IPCB_BoardOutline.Clear`, `eProcessFreePrimitives`, `IPCB_Board.GroupIterator_Create`.++**Library canvas offset.** Bodies added through the PcbLib canvas land 50000 mil from the pads in the stored frame; the editor then paints an EMPTY canvas (Zoom All frames 50 inches; the CH340G "orange sliver" was this). `normalize_bodies` centres each body on its pad cluster; `add_body` now realigns automatically. GroupIterators need `AddFilter_LayerSet(AllLayers)` or mech-layer children are invisible.++**Frames under a locked session.** GDI editors (schematic, PcbLib 2D) still capture; the DirectX PCB canvas paints BLACK while the Windows session is locked (`desktop_get_foreground` = 0, `desktop_list_windows` = 0, full-screen capture white).
