Transparency Mask / Gradient Mask Editor erratic behaviour



  • On Windows 10, I am experiencing this:

    Scenario 1

    1. Draw a rectangle and fill it with a colour
    2. Select the Gradient Mask Editor
    3. With the rectangle still selected, click and drag across using the Gradient Mask Editor to create a linear mask
    4. Reduce overall opacity of the rectangle to 50%
    5. Now rotate the rectangle 45 degrees

    Notice how the gradient effect has been clipped and has not rotated

    Scenario 2

    1. Create a rectangle and fill it with a colour
    2. Rotate the rectangle 45 degrees
    3. Select the Gradient Mask Editor to apply a linear gradient mask
    4. Click and drag from the left to the right side

    Notice how the effect has been drawn. Instead of having a horizontal mask you get a vertical one.

    Having completed all the listed steps for both scenarios, bring up the overall opacity of the rectangles to 100% and again reduce it to 50%.

    Interesting bug this one...

    @William-Kansepa Added this to the backlog, will get back with more once I managed to replicate it.



  • @William-Kansepa Both replicated here.



  • I am happy to report that this is now sorted out and working as expected in update 1.1.087.

    Thank you so much @VectorStyler.
