@Boldline i correct you Its no Problem to move, lets say the group of mirrored Objects. Just push the finish Button and you could move the whole group. If you in Mirror Mode only the original Object is movable or the mirror guides. Here a Video to show it.

@VectorStyler Click the arrow next to the drop down and you'll be taken to:

@Comet The same happens to me

@VectorStyler yes absolutely, when creating the halftone, or copying it with style picker (when this is available). Thank you

@VectorStyler said in Snapping affecting the original position of moved objects: What is the active tool? Pen tool

@Fertuffo there is an option to disable snap overlays in the snapping option panel

@EricP Thanks a lot for your help. I’ve been struggling with this. Will have to look more into the settings @VectorStyler Yes, in VS1.2 it was default setting or I may have enabled it and forgot. Thanks for providing more options.

@Boldline said in Modifier for eyedropper for more precise selections: @VectorStyler Something that could be added to VS eventually? I added it to the backlog, but it will take some time.

Noppes , wacom tablet

@VectorStyler thank you. Yes, I meant use the new Effect Editor tools, not the Node tool

@VectorStyler Thank you!

Aha, seems Illustrator 2025 can do it as well. Use the Transparency panel. Select the group and in Transparency panel click Mask. Then Alt+click the mask icon (white field) in the panel and create black shape there (you can create many shapes, hide, move them, in the Layer mask panel that opens). No need to invert or clip. Illustrator zooming is so sluggish… it is painful. So far Affinity and Inkscape are best regarding zooming with the mouse scroll wheel. Now, regarding export to pdf, svg and eps. Illustrator failed to export to svg. (as VectorStyler exports a null svg) Illustrator exported to pdf successfully. Illustrator exported successfully to eps (VectorStyler did but lost the mask) and I could open that eps in Affinity and VS and with some combining shapes and groups the result was usable! Inkscape 1.4 could not open the eps at all. Interesting indeed! Seems pdf format is the winner although the actual mask object could not be selected\moved\edited in a pdf editor! Illustrator recognized the mask layer form VS as imported pdf (pdf created in VS). Affinity totally rasterized the mask = fail!

@VectorStyler ok, my mistake. It seemed at a glance that that was the lite version. I think it just looked smaller on the site compared to the pdf. thanks!

OK, got it.
