Lojza Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Hi all. Here is a short list of bugs I've found in latest Beta: 1. When hitting "Esc" during editing an Art Text field, the app goes from full screen to normal window. When going back to full screen a hitting "Esc" again, the editing is correctly finished and app stays in full screen. 2. Tool palettes are behaving strangely: Colour/Swatches/Brushes/Stroke sometimes hides its tabs when switching between them a scrolling in brushes. The icons (color cirles of stroke and fil and the color picker) are sometimes drawn above the tab itself (about a tab-height higher than they should be). Also the displayed swatches react on clicking beside them (E.g. there's an orange color and a green color to the left side of it. The user clicks on the green swatch, but the selected color is changed to orange.) Sometimes, when switching between Navigator and Transform, the navigator hides the tabs and draws itself incorrectly high. 3. Hide the tools with Tab. When showing the tools again with Shifth+Tab shortcut, the image jumps down-right a bit. This can be done repeatedly. When showing the tools just with Tab, the image stays correctly in place. 4. Arrange and Snapping pop-ups have semi-transparent rice-paper background (other pop-ups don't). This doesn't look very aesthetic and also the white text is less readable when there's white background behind the "rice paper". I'd recommend staying with non-transparent gray backgroud for these pop-ups. 5. It's not possible to drag a guide from the ruler, when guides are hidden. This should be available - and guides should get visible in such case, if they were hidden. 6. When dragging the guide back to the ruler to remove it, the image starts scrolling to the left, which is quite annoying. Could the app detect that the user is dragging a guide and start scrolling later to give him time to drop it onto the ruler? Or better: could the guide be selectable by clicking on it and deletable with ordinary backspace key? 7. Quite often, usually when copy/pasting some shapes, these new shapes are ignored by snapping feature. Other shapes simply do not see their boundaries to snap to them when dragging. It's quite well repateable - just draw a circle, then copy/paste the shape twice. Take the third instance and try to drag it around - it only interacts with the first circle, not with the copy. 8. When copy/pasting a layer, the copy is inserted inside the original layer. This is either very unintuitive or I miss the point. The new copy of the layer should be pasted above the active layer or group, not inside of it. Thanks for looking into it.

This can be done repeatedly. When showing the tools just with Tab, the image stays correctly in place. Just to let you know, pressing TAB again will unhide the UI. :) Edit: Show all UI is now fixed for the next beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lojza Posted January 28, 2015 Author Share Posted January 28, 2015 Thanks. Tab works perfectly even in current beta. It's Shift+Tab that makes the image jump down-right a bit. Anyway, does Shift+Tab do anything else than just Tab? It seems that both shortcuts shows all UI and works the same.

Anyway, does Shift+Tab do anything else than just Tab? It seems that both shortcuts shows all UI and works the same. Yes they are actually very different so we should probably have given them different names. TAB is a toggle for hiding the current UI in the current state. Pressing TAB again, restores that state but it doesn't show all UI unless all UI was visible to begin with, For example: - Hide your toolbar. - Hide your tools. - TAB will now hide your studio, context bar, and status bar. - Pressing TAB again will show your studio, context bar, and status bar. It does not show the toolbar, nor the tools. - However, SHIFT+TAB will show everything including the toolbar and the tools, ignoring that they were hidden before TAB was pressed. I hope that explains it. For the majority of people, toggling TAB is all they need. :) Lojza 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
