Bug - applying styles is inconsistent


Recommended Posts

Spotted in AD 1.9.0.869 in Windows 10 using Wacom tablet

1. Applying style is sometimes "one step behind". I.e. I apply Style1 and nothing happens. Then I apply Style2 and the style of the selected object finally changes to Style1. The easiest workaround is to apply the desired style twice. It does not happen always but it does happen.

2. I noticed that sometimes the stroke does not refresh properly. If the width of the stroke is too different AD refreshes/redraws only the rectangle of the original look so the changed object seems to be slightly cropped. It's just a temporarily glitch that disappears after the next refresh of the object or the document (zoom, etc.). However I have not found the exact scenario how to demonstrate it yet. (Pressure enabled? Does it happen only with the first change of the style?)

Hi @Gunny
When reporting issues that affect the beta (and that did not occur in 1.8 in this case) please report them in the Beta bugs forum.

I can reproduce your first issue and it does indeed appear to be a regression over 1.8. I'll get this passed over to development.

Unfortunately I didn't see the second issue you mentioned however. If you do find you're able to reproduce that could you attach a copy of the Styles you're using along with the document you're applying them to and the steps and we can take a look!

I though I did that. If not, it was unintentional. :11_blush:

I saw the second issue several times during one session but (un)fortunately I still can't figure out all necessary conditions to demonstrate it again. I suppose it will pop up again soon.

There's another thread about a similar (possibly the same) issue. In that one, double-clicking on the Style is actually required to get it selected.

And here it is.

The original stroke was created with mouse (i.e. without any pressure settings), no fill, width of 16 pixels aka 3,8 pt.

The applied style looks like this (no fill, simple pressure curve, width 16,4 pt).

Wonderful - thanks for that - I've reproduced here and will get it passed on to development - looks like a simple screen redraw! :)
