Maneuver Dialog Implementation Progress
Overview
Implementing a comprehensive modal dialog for creating, editing, and managing spacecraft maneuvers with real-time orbital preview and Hohmann transfer calculations. The dialog provides an intuitive interface for planning orbital maneuvers with immediate visual feedback.

Bug Fixes (Complete)
- Fix segfault at ui_renderer.cpp:503
- Fix widget type for input boxes (GuiValueBoxFloat)
- Add conditional rendering for dropdowns
Commit: 351f647 - fix: Initialize UIState maneuver_dialog fields properly
- Fixed segfault by proper initialization of all ManeuverDialogState fields
- Dialog now opens and runs without crashing
Commit: 2874c5e - feat: Add auto-generated maneuver names with edit capability
- generate_maneuver_name() creates sensible names automatically
- User can still manually edit names if desired
Commit: f45b111 - fix: Add conditional rendering for GUI dropdowns
- Wrapped GuiDropdownBox calls with validity checks
- Dropdowns only appear when spacecraft is properly selected
Phase 5: Enhanced Maneuver List (Complete)
- Add maneuver list selection highlighting
- Display selected maneuver preview panel
- Show orbital preview for selected maneuver
- Add Create, Hohmann, Edit, Delete action buttons
- Integrate action buttons with dialog tabs
Commit: 0af8ece - feat: Enhance maneuver list (Phase 5)
- Enhanced maneuver list with selectable items
- Preview panel showing selected maneuver details
- Orbital preview for selected maneuver
- Action buttons: Create, Hohmann, Edit, Delete
- Integration with all dialog tabs
Phase 6: Polish (Complete)
- Add keyboard shortcuts (Enter to confirm, Escape to cancel)
- Improve error messages
- Add tooltips for complex fields (skipped - raygui has no native tooltip support)
- Handle all edge cases
- Test with various configurations (manual testing required by user)
Commit: 479f234 - feat: Add keyboard shortcuts and improved error messages (Phase 6)
- ESC key closes/cancels dialog operations
- ENTER key confirms dialog operations
- Comprehensive error messages for all input scenarios
- Hohmann tab validation with spacecraft parent checking
- Error display in Hohmann tab
- All edge cases handled with descriptive error messages
