Incorrect xform origin for objects after application start



  • This can only be reproduced if you first quit VS and then restart it.
    (The steps below are not necessary for a rectangle. Can be anything.)

    1. Draw a rectangle.
    2. Now draw another rectangle that crosses the first.
    3. Use boolean Union to merge them.
    4. Select the new shape and keep clicking the "Flip Horizontally" button/icon at the top toolbar. It's a new shape, the center point is sort of blue-ish, so you'd assume it would flip around it's center point. But it doesn't.
    5. Open the Transform Palette. Notice the transform dots (whatever it's called with the 9 points, one in the middle, where you can select the xform point) indicating that the center point is the current xform point. Well, it's obviously not.
    6. Click on the middle point twice (once to deselect and again to select it).
    7. Now repeat the flip horizontally command on the toolbar. Now the unioned shape flips correctly from its center.
    8. After this exercise, you can merge/union any shape and they will flip correctly.
