Suetonius Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Creating a drawing in Designer which required repetitive icons, so created a number of assets. As seen from the screenshot, the RH side shows part of the picture with the correct symbols, one vector, one pixel. The LH side shows the asset icons. Most are correct, but the two with diagonal lines (the only common feature I can find) show the icon RH side missing. I have kept the picture reasonably hi res so you can zoom in. The result is that the top (Vector) icon is not sliced with a straight line. Easy to work round, it provides correct assets when chosen, but a bit of an oddity. 😉🙂 Quote

Suetonius Posted May 19, 2021 Author Posted May 19, 2021 Sorry. Should have included that info in original post. It makes no difference, nor does it matter where in the order the icon appears. Determined little cuss. 😉 Quote

Suetonius Posted May 19, 2021 Author Posted May 19, 2021 That's one word you never want to hear when you have a problem. 🙄😆 Just as well it's easily worked with. Odd, innit? Old Bruce and walt.farrell 2 Quote
Komatös Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Unusual, I would say. Could you provide us with the affected assets for cross-checking?

Suetonius Posted May 19, 2021 Author Posted May 19, 2021 Here you are. As I said, the only apparent common ground was they both had diagonal lines in the area that was obscured Test Assets.afassets Quote

'Show as List'. Not familiar with that. The first post shows the asset as an icon and in use on the page beside it. I've been fiddling with it trying to work out under which precise circumstances the 'interesting' 😉 situation occurs, but there seems to be no consistency. Is it just me? If anyone has picked up the .afassets file, does it show the same partial icons? Real oddball. As I said, everything functions as it should, but my pysche doesn't allow for unexplained mysteries. 🤪 Quote
Suetonius Posted May 19, 2021 Author Posted May 19, 2021 Clunk! Sorry ... with 'Show as List' I thought you wanted the info in another form. The penny has just dropped. You are quite right, the icon does look good in 'Show as List' Quote
Komatös Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 Very mysterious. Rectangles with an as yet undetermined aspect ratio are displayed cut off. This is definitely something that support should take a look at.

Komatös Posted May 19, 2021 Posted May 19, 2021 (edited) I have set the height of the rectangle to 47 px and now it is completely displayed. Do not select the whole group! But the asset symbol looks smaler then before.

Suetonius Posted May 19, 2021 Author Posted May 19, 2021 Ah me. The one thing I didn't think of!! Thanks, Komatos. Sanity now straight and level. 👍 Quote
SPaceBar Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 Hi @Suetonius That is very strange. I will get that logged. Edited: removed screenshots. Quote
Suetonius Posted May 20, 2021 Author Posted May 20, 2021 Ah! These are test assets which I posted. When you see 'Does not display' and 'Displays OK' what you are seeing is the name of the file that I gave them, so I knew which was which. You'll find the pixel versions below display the same names, but with the prefi 'Pix-' Yes. I can see that would be regarded as VERY strange. 🙃🙃🙃 😉 Sorry if I added to the confusion, but thanks for your interest. SPaceBar 1 Quote
SPaceBar Posted May 20, 2021 Posted May 20, 2021 No worries, I just did a bit of editing - nothing to see here. I would have said clipping boxes but the diagonal had me stumped. Quote
Suetonius Posted May 20, 2021 Author Posted May 20, 2021 ... and the odd thing is there seems no consistency. I tried editing out everything on the asset except the rectangle and the number and it still clipped, but if a added a new asset with a newly formed rectangle and no, it was fine. The other thing, too, is if you look at the large picture, you can see that the clipping does not appear to be in a straight line, but in a sort of sinous wave. I have changed the rdcangle to red filling, so you can easily see what I mean. I also enclose updated test assets. As I said, very odd, but at least it's really easy to cope with.
