Hello,

Grouping in Designer and creating excess space around it. The dimensions of the object also change, making work impossible. The object was created using the "Polygon Tool", but immediately converted into "Convert to Curves" curves, because I know that this is what should be done in this case. I just found that it may be affected by rotating the object before grouping. Someone can explain this?

Another example is attached too - both figures in curves, the left one is normal and the right one is rotated by 30 degrees. After grouping both figures, a margin was added only to the rotated right figure.

I don't want it to work like that. I don't need these white margins. They change the dimensions of the object, making work impossible.
