AD 1.6.0.86 - Scale from rotation center problem


Recommended Posts

Hi Matej,

I believe unchecking the Show Rotation Center button will help.

 

Hi, rubs,

 

not if you want to scale text from the denoted point. Namely, you can put the rotation center in any other corner point of the selection rectangle and then ctrl-drag the "scale text" handle and it will correctly scale text from the rotation center.

 

Hope, that makes sense.

 

Cheers.

Hi Matej,

I'm not sure I understand this correctly. Is it just the fact that having that icon in the corner prevents you from accessing the resize node - i.e the Cursor doesn't change to the scale one and instead just moves the Rotation Centre?

The rotation centre is used as the rotation point when you rotate the text, it is not used as an anchor point to scale the text.

I believe that this is the case.

 

Can be demonstrated by zooming in (to many 1000% and putting the center point very close to the corner (but not in the corner). The corner handle will be accessible, and will resize around the center as expected. But even a small amount of zooming out will make it impossible to grab the corner handle. Instead the mouse catches hold of the center.
