Scaling issues
-
Hi,
I ran into a major issue. I made a video to show what happens. Scaling gets broken.
I don't know if it's something on my side but I can replicate it, even by just coping the grid layer to a new file.I can't upload videos here so I made a downloadable link.

@Torakikiii I tried the same steps here (I think…) in a CMYK document and linking to a JPEG, but I can't replicate the issue.
You could send the .vstyler file and the image to the developer by email (csraba at this domain dot com).

@Torakikiii This could be an issue we found with the help of @Boldline recently.
Have you used the "space" key for panning? If so then it could conflict with another feature of scaling.
Try pressing "space" while trying to scale.

Yep, that made the trick... it kinda reset the normal behavior. Is it a bug then?

From watching your video, it looks like you're running into he same problem I was. Here is a video I sent to the developer last night showing what looks to be the same issue. In the second part of my video, when this issue with scaling is occurring, if i grab multiple objects and attempt to scale them, they all spread out. Is this happening to you as well?
@vectoradmin mentioned to me that the space is used to switch in or out a "scale by distributing mode"
I think the features the developer tied to the space bar are awesome -but my thought is that the space bar sans a modifier should handle only panning. I think @vectoradmin is already working on a fix for this!

Yes it is a bug. It has been replicated, and the fix will be in the next build.

I just had the scaling issue occur again
It took a little finagling - though it might be user error on my part in doing so, but this solved the scaling issue for me. We're on the right track!

Just to confirm I'm also experiencing this issue here, and using the spacebar to pan does seem to set off the problem. Unfortunately holding the spacebar down whist resizing has no effect. The only thing that works for me, is closing and reopening the file.

@Jono The problem has been identified and @vectoradmin mentioned the solution will be in the next build coming out soon.
Pressing and holding space bar has always given you the ability to pan. That's not the issue here.Pressing and holding the corner of the bounding box with your cursor and then tapping the spacebar once before scaling will temporarily fix the scaling issue.

@boldline Great, thanks. I’ll try that tomorrow.
Edit: Yay! that trick works. I'm back in business!
