Designer: erratic rotation centre placement

[tonyrambler]

I've seen this mentioned for Photo and Publisher on other threads.

Working in Designer, centre of object rotation is sometimes relocating itself a short or long (or massive) distance from the real centre, even when placed back there with snapping on. Don't know if I can reproduce it (will try) but it is often enough to be very annoying. Only solved by restarting the app.

Trying to find the centre—sometimes way off the document area—has made me wish there was a "return to centre of object" button for the toolbar, as on a big screen the small crosshair is hard to find out in the weeds. This is of course a separate issue to the bug.

Hi @tonyrambler,

This is an issue which is present in the 2.1 beta which has regressed over the release build (2.0.4), this issue is currently logged with the developers. Have you potentially been using the Designer 2 Beta version?

Hi Nathan,

no just using Designer 2.04. Waiting for the full 2.1.

I haven't come across the issue in Photo v2, although I use it a lot, probably because I rarely do that kind of work in it. Same with Publisher v2.
