Strange behavior Transformation Origin

[Hanjo]

Transformation Origin locates itself in a different position from where it is moved to. This happens with certain curves, not with groups. Problem observed since the 2.0.3 release. I'm using Designer on MacOS Ventura 13.1.

Hi Hanjo,

If possible could you provide a screen recording demonstrating this or steps that can be used to recreate the problem?

Thanks

@CallumAs with the majority of bugs, this one does not always happen. I noticed two things: incorrect values in the Transform window and a stange behaviour of the transform origin. 

I use the move tool to reposition the transform origin indicator of a curve. I design mandalas so in most of the cases I drag it to the center, using snapping. Normally the Transform window should reflect the coordinates of the moving indicator, but its correct new values only appear when I release the mouse button. During the move the values are changing but they are not correct. This is very annoying when I need a specific location.

In some cases, and again only with curves, the transform origin indicator moves to a place different from where I move it to (also when snapping). My workaround is to group the curve because then I have no problems.

 

PS The other bug that I recently reported keeps popping up. I have days without any printing issue, but then suddenly the problem reappears and I have to export to PDF for printing.

@Callum, I don't want to cross contaminate posts but the issue experienced by @Hanjo sounds very much related to this issue recently reported, though possibly not identical. There is also a report in the Photo forum of another issue relating to Transform Origin which could also be related...

@Callum, @Hangmanis right. This is exactly what I sometimes experience!
