@Subpath said in Connect Tool: @Li-Xiao This looks cool and interesting. I tried something, like your pics a while ago in "Paragraphic" but could never solve how to do it. Creating this kind of effect in VectorStyler is very simple and convenient.

Yes, i see this from the view of someone that work with books, i guess that is not the focus of most of VS users. You have already 4 buttons for page navigation, "Go to fist page", "Go to previous page" "Go to next page" and "Go to last page". Usually, i use the "Go to next page" to advance in the document. When i press it, and i am in the last page, usually is because i need to add a page, so, "Go to next page" become "add page" dialog only in the case you are positioned in the last page of your document. It will not interfere with navigation.

Here the forum is very snappy and responsive.

@Boldline as vectorstyler mentioned the Gradient Shape Tool i made a video here . . [image: 1770721114456-gradient-shape-tool.png]

No reason not to build directly on the current VS "regime" that is comparable to the interface in Illustrator: [image: 1770683932446-26b64e2d-ecfe-4d2c-8bc5-69a9942e641f-image.png] Here, Illustrator wins on visual simplicty, though. I can only imagine the VS icons can be simplyfied a bit too. A plus sign in a single square icon is all we need. Sublayer? I dunno, just as gymspiration: [image: 1770684790138-5771e636-20d5-4f4e-aa7f-3a1d123b3800-image.png] [image: 1770685047298-30c9259d-a7f3-4998-a7af-99f19d585a66-image.png] [image: 1770685170190-6678b144-4202-4eee-a19f-d737131f871c-image.png] BTW icon tooltip says new sublayer, right click menu create layer inside.

And of course it works even with colors [image: 1770308106217-with-colors.png]

@VectorStyler said in Main site font is Times New Roman: @Ingolf I will try to fix this Seems to be fixed now! [image: 1770224809989-84921ea5-3b3b-49c4-b05e-68f2f23f34f8-image.png]

@VectorStyler "Pressing the shortcut again will return to the previous tool" That`s great and solve my question. Thanks

@jpsimmons said in Add a distance / measurement tool for arbitrary points and objects: That's an awful lot of work for something Illustrator had in 1988. I Can you show how this is done in illustrator?

@VectorStyler ok thanks! I attached the original image if that helps. [image: 1770304265640-generated-image.png]

@VectorStyler said in update 1.3.009: Fixed a bug in editing drop shadow options from the toolbar It works SO MUCH better now! thank you for fixing that.

@Ingolf The color can be picked by selecting a gradient color knob, then clicking in the Color panel the color picker icon knob and then clicking on a location for the color

@Boldline This is a pixel based effect. It could be added later to image effects (no plans for now). Maybe a similar effect can be found in the SVG effects of Inkscape, and those can be imported to VS

@marce There is no option to show the nodes for now. The tool is mentioned here: https://vectorstyler.com/documentation/shapes/editcorners/

@VectorStyler I appreciate the quick fixes. thank you for taking care of those issues and getting it released

@Raaskot I opened a bug on this

Excelent. Now it works as it must. Thanks very much
