Four review findings, all measured by the reviewer on AutoCAD 2026:
1. ucs_list and the ucs_restore('world') CMDACTIVE guard read
app.GetVariable, but GetVariable is an AcadDocument member — the tool
was dead live and the guard's swallowed read forced cmd_active to 0,
sending `_.UCS _W` into any open prompt. Both read the document now,
and a failed CMDACTIVE read refuses instead of proceeding. The fake
app in tests/test_views_ucs.py has no GetVariable any more, so the
old code cannot pass.
2. view_named_save defaulted from doc.ActiveViewport.Center/Height/Width,
which does not track the display (it answered the initial view after
`_.ZOOM _C 5,6 20`). The current view is VIEWCTR / VIEWSIZE at the
SCREENSIZE aspect — what `-VIEW _S` records (width 40.267 for height
20). The fake viewport is deliberately stale so a read of it fails.
3. view_named_restore wrote Center/Height/Width into the AcadViewport;
AutoCAD anchors the lower-left corner and widens to the display
aspect, landing a 10x20 view at (5, 6) on VIEWCTR (20.134, 6). It now
zooms the saved rectangle (app.ZoomWindow), which centres and fits
like `-VIEW _R` (VIEWCTR = saved centre, VIEWSIZE = max(h, w/aspect)),
reports `applied: "zoom_window"` and reads VIEWCTR / VIEWSIZE back.
Headless the same reconciliation moved the centre whenever the
*Active VPORT's aspect was rewritten from w/h (even the 1.34 default
opened at x = 11.734): the aspect the file carries is left alone —
it is the display's, written by AutoCAD at save — and the window is
fitted into it; the payload adds `vport_height` / `aspect_ratio`.
4. layer_state_restore set ActiveLayer before the loop and outside the
try; AutoCAD refuses to make a frozen layer current, so the spec's
own save → freeze → restore path raised an opaque COM error with
nothing applied. When `frozen` is being restored the state's current
layer is thawed first; the write is wrapped and a refusal lands in
`warnings`. The fake document and layer now model both refusals.
Live AutoCAD was not running in this round (GetActiveObject failed, no
acad process), so the fix is measured against the reviewer's numbers,
not re-measured.
