App performance suffers when using perception filter tool

[DarkScythe13]

Hi, im not sure if this classifies as a bug or not. When using the perspective tool and dragging the corners on my M1 Ipad, the app seems bring up a small magnifiying circle and (as a result) theres’s constant pauses when this occurs making use of the tool very painful. Ive tried aearching settings in case there is a setting im missing that might remove that magnifying functionality but couldnt find anything. I was wondering if anyone else has noticed this issue and or could recommend how to avoid it. Otherwise id just like to bring it to attention. I feel like this might have been an issue moreso sonce V2 as i dont remember V1 having the same problem.

Ive attached a photo to show what i mean though obviously doesnt capture the performance issues..

 

EDIT: When i test movements quick enough to avoid the magnifying assist from appearing it works as intended. So it def seems to be that which is causing the issue with the tools performance.

This has been reported previously and I thought it had been fixed in an earlier release but performance really suffers and stutters once the magnifying glass appears when you move the pen slowly on the perspective filter on V2. Note this works correctly on V1 app without performance issues but not V2.0.4.

EDIT: March 2023 Still a nasty problem in V2.1.0.1713, makes perspective and mesh tools uncomfortable to use.

The performance issue affects touch gestures, too.
