Contour tool for text, grouping text and contour using group and create compound

[François Leblanc]

I create text and a text contour with the contour tool. Since I have to move them together, I create a group for those 2 text layers. When I move the group, I see glitches in the contour. Ungroup the 2 layers, create a compound with the 2 layers and you see more glitches.

Does this still happen if you Convert to Curves instead of using Text? On Mac I see what you have shown with the one exception of the Compound glitch, doesn't seem to be stretched like that. Also if I ungroup after moving the group then there is no weirdness happening any more. Is that the same on Windows?

What happens if you ungroup after moving?

If you ungroup the 2 text layers after moving the group, then it comes back to normal.

Text to curve, before moving, does it work?

Converting 2 text layers to curve before moving works fine. Your text become uneditable.

Hi Francois,

I believe this is currently a known issue that is logged with our developers to be investigated further. I'll let you know once I have any updates

Thanks
