 ## Current focus
 
 1. Finish the alpha checklist above (release builds, AutoCAD open check, smoke test of every command, autosave/recovery, plot preview).
-2. Constraint glyphs on the canvas; Layer Properties Manager, QSELECT and Quick Properties.
+2. Layer filter groups, constraint bar polish (close buttons, hover highlight).
 3. Native MULTILEADER objects in DXF; stop `*D` block duplication on re-save.
 4. Then 3D foundations (UCS, orbit, solids via truck/csgrs per plan/adr/0001).
