Scale with Object on by default


Recommended Posts

It appears to be a property which gets saved with the document. So even if saved in one it can be off again in another document unless you have saved it there, too.

I'm afraid it is not. I don't know of any document specific setting you could set across various documents synchronously. And this even appears to be not stable within one document and session, though I had activated it for my current document recently, I now experience it to be deactivated again, caused by any unknown action but not related to object specific settings in this document. Bit weird.

And new documents seem to start with this option always as disabled.

May be someone more experienced with this feature comes up.

Hi, is there a way to permanently turn on Scale with Object in the Stroke panel? Thanks for the help.

Yes please - an option in preferences would be nice

You can alter the Default behaviour by making something the way you want it (fill and stroke colours, opacity etc.) and then, with the object selected, using Edit > Defaults > Synchronize from selection and then immediately go to Edit > Defaults > Save. Now you will have that set for new objects. If you include the Scale with object checked in the stroke panel then all new curves and shapes will have that on by default.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

FX wasn't mentioned, strokes were.

I would also suggest that one could set up a document with all the settings one wanted, and then save that as a template.
