Improved object handling (sizing, moving, rotating...)

Post by ausmark »

"Handles" appear on the edge of an object when it's selected, allowing you to resize, move, stretch and rotate the image.

If you wanted to cut only part of an object, you could move it to the edge of the mat, and the portion that is outside of the "cutting area" (the 1/4" margin on the mat) isn't cut.

However, if you move the right-hand side of the object off the mat, you lose the resize handle in the bottom-right corner of the object.

If you try to move the left-hand side of the object off the mat, good luck if your SCAL application is maximised! :)

And if you have managed to get the left-hand side of the object off the mat, you can no longer move it -- at least not that I can work out.

Having these handles in fixed positions on the edge of the object is very restrictive -- the design for these operations needs to be improved.

You can change the x-y axis coordinates manually if the handles go off the screen. I think it's on the object's properties window.
