ivanl Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Hello, I noticed that transparent objects cannot be selected with the move tool. Although once you select the object in the layers panel it becomes movable. I don't quite understand the logic here, is this default behavior ? Thank you, Ivan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Patrick Connor Posted October 30, 2016 Staff Share Posted October 30, 2016 ivanl, Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums. :) You are correct, 100% transparent objects cannot be selected with the move tool. This felt wrong to me particularly when it means that drag select and Cmd+A doesn't pick them up either. I questioned this with the system architects and they confirmed that items that are not visible (check box in the layers panel) or 0% opaque (in the layers panel) will currently not select, though this wasn't fundamental, and was possible to change if a compelling reason was found. I couldn't think of one. Although I think I agreed on the 'not visible' case, I was less convinced about the correct behaviour when transparent. What is your opinion please? ivanl 1 Quote Patrick Connor Serif Europe Ltd Latest V2 releases on each platform Help make our apps better by joining our beta program!
