Artem Shush Posted February 27, 2020 Posted February 27, 2020 If I hide a stroke through Swatches studio, turning the color off, the thickness and the solid type of it stays attached, which is kinda good for project "memory". But, it expands as an invisible stroke of defined thickness. According to the logic, that the initial stroke is not only invisible but uninteractable, as it doesn't influence bounds, snapping, etc, I think it should not be expanded. That occurs on invisible lines as well. And I would like to see such lines disappear during expand operation. It would be helpful and in tact with the logic that you don't allow single nodes or empty art text to stay on the sheet. So, basically, keep and expand transparent (zero opacity) strokes on objects and lines as maybe s ome people intend to do so, but don't expand curves and shape strokes if the color is turned off for them.

Staff Gabe Posted March 2, 2020 Staff Posted March 2, 2020 Hi @Pears Posters, Colour off does not mean no stroke. Colour and stroke are 2 separate controls. A curve with no colour but a 30pt value will still expand. If you turn the stroke off, you cannot expand it, which is the expected behaviour. Quote

I control the presence of fill and stroke in Swatches studio. And it's confusing to see some strokes around the objects appear out of nowhere. I would agree on expanding transparent strokes, but not color-off strokes. It's cool that the Stroke studio remembers my settings, but when I hide stroke, it doesn't need to appear suddenly out of nowhere when I expand something, because it's not transparent, it's turned off. Yes, it still has solid/dashed or whatever setting so I can turn it on if I want, but I turn off the color for some reason, no? Quote
Artem Shush Posted March 2, 2020 Author Posted March 2, 2020 Nevermind, actually. I gave it a thought. Although it looks like an additional step for me, it's in tact with the program's logic of things. Gabe 1 Quote
