Selection box is bigger than objects it contains


Recommended Posts

Hi,
I have issue as mentioned in topic.
I've recorded video and attached it together with source file.

The bug report I mentioned in video: 

I hope it helps in any way :)

 

Edit:
Issue found, sorry for bothering you!
It seems the selection box is based on object boundries and not nodes, so if you rotate one thing just a bit the boundry of this curve will change the overall selection box.

Sorry for bothering you once again. How can I delete this topic? :)



Have a great day!

Hi IDT Adrian,

This isn't actually a bug, it is being caused by the rotation on the objects. The group is looking for the edgemost areas of each object and because of the rotation that is getting pushed out. See the attached images. When the object is rotated, the area it occupies is wider, so when everything is grouped, the group has to be bigger than you would expect.

Unfortunately there isn't yet a way to fully reset the transform box if you've rotated an object, however you could always manually create a rectangle Layer > Geometry > Merge Curves and then delete the unneeded rectangle curve object. That should give you an object with a Rotation of 0 which when grouped, won't push the group size out.
