Can't find the node



  • @VectorStyler said in Can't find the node:

    It works here, but the "Transform Selection Center" is a different thing and its shape cannot be selected.

    OK.
    But then; where and in what situation will I be able to see 'Transform Selection Center' indicator?


  • administrators

    @Ayo This is shown at the center of the selected objects, when the Transform tool is used.

    Must be enabled from the toolbar with the 0_1686298005761_center.png icon

    Can be used to set the rotation pivot point.



  • And another one...

    How and where can I see the Stroke Width Position (indicator-1) occur?

    Aside
    When figuring out which node/indicator applies where concerning the Stroke Width Tool/Width Brush, I have a stuck application almost every time. The shape I use is a very basic line/curve. Nothing difficult.

    Yes, this is a known issue, and has been also replicated here.
    A fix already exists and will be available in the next build (early next week).

    Ok, that about the behaviour.
    But my actual question was: how/where can I see the 'Stroke Width Position' shape? (correction: listed in Indicator Shapes)

    @Ayo said in Can't find the node:

    where can I see the 'Stroke Width Position' shape?

    In the stroke width editor tool, when a width node is selected.

    I get the:

    • Stoke Profile Marker
    • Stroke Profile Node
    • Stroke Width Node
      but the 'Stroke Width Position' does not appear. Whatever crazy shape I give. Not with the Stroke Width Tool nor in the Stroke Width Editor window.

    In this 'Path Width' cluster I have two more that I cannot make visible.
    resume:

    Indicator Shapes

    • Stroke Width Position

    Indicator-1

    • Stroke Profile Editing Position Node
    • Stroke Profile Editing Outline

    can you direct me to these indicators?

    Stroke Width Position

    Looks like this and the other got skipped in the stroke width tool. This is a bug.
    Will get fixed ASAP.



  • More questions.
    If you're tired of my questions, just say so.

    This time the Collider Tool
    1.
    The Collider Node I assume is the node appearing at the collision point between two shapes. In Indicator Shapes I can change the Collider Node all I want but it has no effect. Remains a Tiny Circle.
    2.
    Which selection from Editing Options 1 should give the color and line settings for this node?
    I'll trial and error the whole list but nothing has any effect.

    Is this a bug?



  • @Ayo

    1. Seems to be a bug.

    2. If I select 'Collision Snapping Indicator' from the list in Prefs > Editing Options 1,
      changing its color and stroke width works here.

    That one has effect on the snapping target path.
    Not the node.



  • @Ayo You want the point where you grab the shape to be changed?
    Not the point where it snaps to another shape?

    I am looking for the line and fill controls for the 'Collider Node' from Indicator Shapes.

    Looks like a bug, added to the backlog.

    This is now not in use anymore, as it is handled by a snapping indicator, will be removed.

    1. Which selection from Editing Options 1 should give the color and line settings for this node?

    This will be the "Collision Snapping Indicator"
