Ideas to improve the "Stroke Width Tool" a bit



  • Hi

    While experimenting with the Stroke Width Tools,
    I had a few ideas on how to improve the
    "Stroke Width Tool" specifically.

    I noticed that with the other 3 Width Tools,
    the size of these Tools can be changed
    with the UP- and DOWN-Keys.

    The idea was, that we could use the UP and DOWN
    and the LEFT and RIGHT Keys on the "Stroke Width Tool"
    for finer control.

    Up- and Down-Key for width control
    and Left and Right Key for moving a Width Node
    along a Curve

    .
    I also thought of a small size Info for seeing the
    actually Width of a Node, (with live update of course)
    as you can see on this picture.
    I am a little unsure if that might be too much ?
    But i mentioned it here anyway.
    (I know we see the Size also in the Stroke Width Panel
    but i think the Ideas here would be a little more direct)
