Rewrites USER_GUIDE.md to match the codebase after PR #42.

Removed (no longer exist):

  • Center Y axis toggle
  • Standard | Zero plane grid modes
  • Icon-strip grid-visibility toggle (moved into the Grid page)

Added (new in #42):

  • Isolate page (octant gizmo — click/toggle/revert behavior)
  • Scaling modes (Auto-normalized / Auto-real scale / Custom)
  • Tick density slider
  • Navigation guardrails (zoom limits, pivot bounds, stuck-key protection)

Also removed the "camera feels slightly off" troubleshooting entry and its GitHub issue references — a user guide shouldn't cite internal issue trackers or describe implementation-level causes; the existing "camera is lost" entry already covers the fix (Reset).

No code changes — documentation only.

Pull request overview

Updates the end-user documentation to reflect the post-#42 UI/feature set (signed symmetric grid, scaling modes, octant isolation, CSV-only loading, and navigation guardrails), removing references to retired controls and troubleshooting notes.

Changes:

  • Refreshes the “first look” and Grid page documentation to match the signed/symmetric grid and new scaling + tick controls.
  • Adds documentation for the new Isolate page (octant gizmo behavior) and camera/navigation guardrails.
  • Updates toolbar and troubleshooting sections to reflect removed toggles and new filtering/isolation behavior.

USER_GUIDE.md:231

  • The guide references docs/images/filter.jpg, but there is no filter.jpg (or similarly named Data-page screenshot) in docs/images/, so this will render as a broken image. Either add the image file or update the link to an existing asset.

USER_GUIDE.md:285

  • This screenshot link targets docs/images/isolate.cube.jpg, but docs/images/ currently does not contain that file, so the image will be broken in rendered docs. Either add the screenshot file (recommended) or remove/update the reference.

USER_GUIDE.md:423

  • This screenshot link points to docs/images/hud.jpg, but docs/images/ does not contain that file, so the image won’t render. Either add the HUD screenshot asset or remove/update this reference.

| **Shift** | Lower pivot along the Y axis |

When the pivot changes, the camera translates by the same offset, preserving your viewing angle. The pivot is marked by a **six-armed cross reticle** in the scene.
