AffDes.v2.2.1. (Mac) Select group : strange behaviour of selection area


Recommended Posts

Please see attatchment.

1.Created rectangle.
2.Created middle curve, drawn from RH bottom corner to connect with rectangle.
3.Moved rotation point of middle curve to RH bottom corner.
4.Duplicated middle curve, rotated ro right & repeated till quarter is full.
5.Converted rectangle to curves & locked.
6.Selected curves.
7.Grouped curves
8.Duplicated group & flipped.
9.Ungrouped curves.
10.Grouped again,now including the converted rectangle.

Now :
Selected the group, the selection area shown is quite a bit larger than the combined curves.
Opened the group and selected all individual curves within the group (Shift+select)
The selection area fits.

I can't figure out what's causing this.
I can't find any hidden curves
Could someone please enlighten me ?
Thanks very much in advance !

When you drew the first curve at 45 degrees you have a bounding box that is square, you then rotate that bounding box by 45 degrees and it is now a diamond shape. If you start with a curve at 0 degrees or 90 degrees then the bounding box is not a square.

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.
