[solved] .46 tool pen and text got problem

Postby nightingale2k1 » Mon Apr 07, 2008 3:03 pm

hi,
i actually dont like drawing using benzier tool :tool_pen: in .46 but i love to use .45 for drawing because it behave differently.
for example, when i use in .45, i put 2 dot and then I make adjustment for the angle and then i right click, in .45 it usually stopped on the last dot but in .46 it draw line to the point i dragged it out.

I think it is hard to explain unless you try to compare between .45 and .46. Is there a way to return to .45 for just :tool_pen: only ? :) is there any configuration that i need to set so I can have the same thing as in .45 ?

I found text tool :tool_text: dropdown (left top of the screen) in .46 buggy, because it always set as Sans although I choose another font. It will changes to another when I choose view font and then i choose the font and size.

Thx

I can confirm that right-clicking to finish a path with :tool_pen: has changed. I would contact the developers on the mailing list to see if it was intentional and if not, report it as a bug on the launchpad site. As a work around, you can press Enter to get the same effect.

As for the font issue, if it makes you feel better, I can't change my font at all :) I get the drop-down list but can't select a font - the list seems to ignore my mouse clicks. This is definitely an issue that needs to be reported on launchpad if it hasn't already.

The changed Bezier tool behaviour has been reported on Launchpad (bug 208768).
