  @Jayanta-Das It is possible to make a tiling pattern from an image. And to use it as a fill (clipped into a shape) with no styling, just apply the image on the object using the Links panel.

  @Huangzhi More on this in the documentation: https://www.vectorstyler.com/documentation/text/cjk/ A text frame can be drawn as vertical (with the vertical text tools), or turned into vertical.

  @Boldline said in How do I regain the ability to move text on a path?: Is the expectation that someone would turn that preference on if they never had to adjust text on a path or flip it? I think the text on path tool should not select the anchor (shape) if this is on. But it could be a bug here.

  @VectorStyler said in Constrained Lines Question: @Igull Is the Smooth Nodes enabled in the context panel? Ahh - nailed it, thanks I was looking for something in the context panel, but that doesn't show until after you have started drawing - it might be better if the trigger for that happened when the pen is selected ? Maybe there's some other reason that I don't know about of course There is also no inferencing (to other points of the polygon) shown, I'm wondering if that is part of a snapping option ?? Neil

  @Boldline When deleting a node, it will delete the segment before the node along the path direction.

  @VectorStyler said in How do I commit to changes made with warp tool and retain stroke attributes?: To get back to editing nodes, you need to convert to curves (again). thank you - I found where I got stuck. If the node editing tool is selected and used to select the warped shape, then pressing "convert to curves" will not work - you need to switch to the transform tool and then try "convert to curves" to have success

  @Boldline A possibly fast solution is to just select an object that has an uniform width stroke, then drawing with the Pen tool after that should revert to that width (or to 1 pt width if the previous object has no stroke).

  @VectorStyler No, the cursor is a small curve with circle on top plus a mini regular cursor LOL. I've tried a vid, but it's not capturing the above cursor change for some reason. The cursor changes from a regular cursor when hovering, to this other cursor when shift is depressed. Neil

  @Boldline Yes, at this phase it does not yet has any corners. First you must set a nonzero corner radius.

  @jfraze When you don't find some feature or command you need, try the Search field under the Help menu (say, 'shortcuts'). If it's included, macOS will point it where it's located in the menus.
