    Control/Switch for keeping Move Tool and not changing it to Node Tool after 'Convert to curves'

    in Feedback for the Affinity V2 Suite of Products

    Posted

    Good evening, Ash.

    Many thanks for your time and detailed reply.

    The thing is my production requires doing this curving one text after another hundred and even more times every day so extra click (not talking about two clicks) each time unfortunately does makes a difference (and fatigue) in my workflow. Curving all text elements at once is not a way as I have to keep editable copy in one file too. 

    So if it'd be possible, I will be happy to have a small dedicated switch/control/preference with the according 'No switching to Node Tool after' logic in Settings.

    Hi dear Affinity Developer Team,

    Now in Designer v2 when you do 'Convert to Curves', Move Tool is being changed to Node Tool automatically.
    Earlier in v1 there was no such behaviour.

    I do a huge amount of 'Converting to Curves' daily (without further purpose of editing nodes) and this constant switching to Node Tool hurts me workflow significantly. 

    Is it possible to bring keeping selected Move Tool after 'Convert to Curves' back?
    Or at least can you please make an according control/switch in Settings for turning off this 'changing to Node Tool' behaviour after 'Convert to Curves'?

    Sincerely
    Vitalii

    I am not exactly sure of the behavior you are describing but for me, after selecting (highlighting) a layer name, the next click just positions the blinking text cursor (a.k.a. caret) in the text field at that point. It does not reselect (highlight) all the text.

    Thanks for checking.

    For some reason I'm still experiencing this all text auto selection/highlighting after blinking cursor (that happens not 100% of times).
    Here's another video with clicks below:

    Hi Matt,

    Is it possible to fix/change this (IMHO) wrong layer name selection behavior in Vector and Pixel Personas?

    Seeing this issue from at least 1.5 version. When I double-click on layer name then click for removing layer name text selection BUT it selects all text again and I think it's not Ok and not comfortable. In contrast, name editing In Slices menu is Ok and natural.

    Extra questions.

    Is it possible to add shortcuts for:
    - layer renaming?
    - artboards selection?
    - atrboards collapsing?

    Cheers

    FWIW, I'm easy on the subject - I'm happy for reports here or in the parent sub-forum, but it sounds like QA would find it easier if they were posted individually in the parent to this thread :)

     

    Let me know if there are any performance funnies or if things seem okay - I made quite a large change to Metal view mode in response to an odd find on 27" 5k iMac and I need to know how people are finding it now... :/ 

     

    Thanks everyone! :)

    Hi Matt,

     

    Many thanks for new beta! 

    All is Ok on 27" 5k iMac, Metal view mode. Working about 4 hours, great performance and see no issues at all! Extremely happy!

    @bagmetv Thanks for the screencast! Hmm... I'm not getting this - can I ask a couple of questions? Does this happen all the time? What if you restart the application and try again? What Mac are you using? Is it reproducible in another document? Thanks!

     

    Thanks for reply, Matt.

    My machine is iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2015), 3.3 GHz Intel Core i5, 24 GB 1867 MHz DDR3, AMD Radeon R9 M395 2048 MB, MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 

     

    I have restarted application:

     

    1. I still see such flickering in this current file I mentioned previously (It was created in beta 7 but saved last time in beta 8) + another visual issue like white 'shapes' (not sure how to call that exactly) while resizing artboards.

    Just have opened some another file which was saved in beta 7 too. Same flickering and white 'shapes'.

     

    2. Created new file (in beta 8) without app restart. No flickering but I see the same white 'shapes' while resizing artboards.

    Please take a look at screencast and this new file: https://we.tl/pnH1W4R0hb

     

    Cheers
