Selecting Strokes Re-Aligns them #120
Comments
Are you ctrl + clicking to select? |
Nope, just LMB. |
You are technically widgeting them wgen clicking. Ctrl click to just select. |
That doesn't make sense to me. Why does the widget cause realignment? |
This is a hard concept to explain. I'm going to make a video. |
Okay cool, thanks. |
the underylying reason is the way contours works. The "in this situation" reason is becuase its hard to distinguish a click from someone clicking to intitiate a transform. Basically, it always assumes you have clicked to transform unless you hold ctrl....so when you release it re-cuts the object. Video explains why this ruins your alignment sometimes. I'm pretty sure I can improve this on both levels though |
So...two problems here which we can leave as one bug. a. simple clicks cause behind the scenes transform, causing a re-cut and re alignment. Losing established shift |
Ah that makes perfect sense. Thanks for the video. In response to a. above, could we mitigate this by implementing a threshold detection for what is considered a transform? Such that if a user simply selects the stroke, or moves it a minuscule amount, then Contours doesn't consider it a new cut? |
If you select a stroke that has been shifted or otherwise manually aligned is selected then it auto-aligns its self. No alignment should take place upon selection.
