1.7.1 Live radial blur filter loupe issue

[DM1]

When using the live radial blur filter, touching and holding the screen with pencil (or finger) brings up the magnifying loupe. Touch for Gestures on. Ok with other live blurs as pencil adjusts effect when moved on screen.

Hey DM1,

The Radial Blur will affect the entire pixel layer so you would normally make a selection so that the Radial Blur only affects the pixels inside it.

Once you've got the selection made, you can just simply press inside the selection to set the blur centre. 

So dragging isn't really needed, however it does suggest to drag in the Help so something needs to change—we either suggest a press in the Help or disable the magnifier during the action. I will query this with the developers.

Unless, the loupe allows us to more accurately place the origin of the blur, in which case should it be left as it is?

With Touch for Gestures on, the assumption should be Apple Pencil used, no Loupe required for accurate placement due to pencil accuracy.
