katixy Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 There is a conflict in the modifier shortcuts while using a vector pen/brush. In earlier versions you could press CTRL to use the Node tool add some nodes. Now pressing CTRL will default to the break curve option (shortcut, according to the lower screen info panel, is CTRL - click). To access the node tool you need to press CTRL while in vector pen (that's the modifier key to access Node tool), but there's no ADD node option available anymore because you're already pressing the shortcut of break curve. To add a node you need to select the actual node tool which is cumbersome. I assume it is unintended change, because the info panel still gives the right sort of info what keys to press etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddiebox Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 (edited) Quick question. Before the new update I used to hold CTRL and click on a curve to add a new node, but after the update if I hold CTRL on a curve a red cross symbol appears next to the cursor and if I click it deletes the entire curve... Did they change the way to add nodes? Edited February 4, 2021 by freddiebox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted February 5, 2021 Staff Share Posted February 5, 2021 Hi @katixy and @freddiebox This is an unfortunate side effect of introducing a new feature to the Node Tool. In 1.9 it is not possible to delete curve segments by holding down Ctrl and clicking on them. Unfortunately this clashes when you're using the Pen, Pencil or the Vector Brush and then hold Ctrl to temporarily switch to the Node Tool. I will get this passed over to development to investigate ways around this. Thanks. katixy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrus Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 OMG!!! Yeah so it's a bug, not a feature ! I hope it will be solved on a new release ASAP, I think I've lost 70% of my hair since it has been introduced Good luck devs, you have all my mental power Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petrus Posted April 4, 2021 Share Posted April 4, 2021 Buh!! I was jumping when I saw the new 1.9.2, but this problem is so sadly not fixed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petrus Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 1.10, problem looks like not fixed. Since so many months it's broken... Is there another way to create a new node on an existing line ? A workaround ? This bug is really annoying. Thx for your hard work. HaydonBlaze 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bettz Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I just want to agree with the annoyance of the curve-breaking bug! Perhaps they need more people to chime in, since the comment was originally posted 2 years ago 😬 yikes Petrus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
