bpparrott Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 When using the knife tool to create a straight line cut (holding LMB and RMB to make the straight line) across multiple letters of a word, the tool only cuts some of the letters. I'm attaching a file with three test words: "TEST" "LINE" and "BURY". For "TEST" the knife tool cuts through the "T" "E" and "T" but not the "S". For "LINE" the knife tool properly cuts through all four letters. For "BURY" the tool cuts through "B" "U" and "Y" but not "R". Below is a screenshot for what happens with the word "BURY". You can see the cuts were made properly on the "B" "U" and "Y" but there seems to be some error occurring on the "R" Out of curiosity, I made a second file with knife cuts through every capital letter (using Arial as the font). That file is also uploaded. The knife tool malfunctioned with respect to the following letters: B, C, D, G, O, P, Q, S, and Y. This also seems to occur only when using the "straight line" type of cut (click and hold down RightMouseButton). I was unable to reproduce the bug using a freehand cut. In my example files I used the Arial font, but other fonts produce the same error. Thanks for your help on this! Operating System is Windows 10 Pro (Verson 21H2) Hardware Acceleration is On (although the bug seems to occur regardless) Knife Bug File.afdesign Knife Bug File 2.afdesign Andreas Sobel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
