elliptical stroke fill UI issues (WIndows)


Recommended Posts

Hi,

the UI text hint for elliptical stroke is quite misleading in multiple aspects (on Windows).

  • All actions who involve right-mouse actually require both mouse keys (left and right, start with left) to work, and when finishing, first release left and the right mouse button. This requires insane Olympic level training and is almost impossible.
  • When only pressing right-mouse, the context menu will occur, breaking the UI action.
  • Adding right mouse button will actually deactivate constraining, and allowing to move x/y axis independently
  • left+right mouse + shift will rotate and with other aspects are locked. You can always rotate. by only using left mouse or left and right mouse.
  • there is much more, don't want to overload this post.

I would recommend that affinity mods / devs try all all listed combinations on their own - it is a worrisome UI labyrinth to get lost forever.

Special interest into procedural texture filter, edit alpha channel, RGB/16 and RGB/32 color formats, stacking, finding root causes for misbehaving files, finding creative solutions for unsolvable tasks, finding bugs in Apps.

My posts focus on technical aspects and leave out most of social grease like „maybe“, „in my opinion“, „I might be wrong“ etc. just add copy/paste all these softeners from this signature to make reading more comfortable for you. Otherwise I’m a fine person which respects you and everyone and wants to be respected.
