Constraints don’t play well with compounds

[Kac1per]

I’m using the newest Designer (2.0.4) and OS version. The issue occurs in every file both opened and newly created, so it should be easy to reproduce. Using object constraints together with compounds causes strange behavior – when scaling, the parent object gets scaled as a whole without applying constraints, but upon selecting children it seems like their geometry is affected by constraints and when they get transformed in any way, parent’s geometry updates accordingly (as shown in the first video). Furthermore, when applying compound on already created constraint group the program crashes upon ungrouping the constraint group (as shown in the second video).

Hey @Kac1per welcome to the forums,

The first issue in regard to compound group child layers not honouring constraints is currently logged with the developers, so i've bumped it with your report.

The second issue with the crash was not logged however, so I've replicated and logged this, many thanks 🙂

Just updated to 2.1.0 and issue is still present.

Looks like this particular issue didn't make it into the 2.1 release build unfortunately, however I have tagged the thread with this issue, so when it is fixed the Info Bot should update this thread to advise. 🙂
