@b77 I had checked there but my update is missing the extend out option for the transform tool and when I click there to activate it, nothing happens

[Boldline]

@VectorStyler I like the way you have separated them into tools and then variables of those tools. This looks like it will work well and provide more clarity on what are tools and what are added function variables for the transform tools

UPDATE: Having used the new setup for a few days, I already love the way it's arranged compared to before. Having the main transform tools renamed and accessible in the transform panel makes sense and causes less confusion. The secondary options being located in the context bar helps differentiate their role compared to the main three. Great solution!

@b77, @VectorStyler

@Subpath If the toolbox was customized, then these tools will not show up. You need to reset to default.

My Toolbox wasnt customized

After selecting " Default Workspace"
it was fixed and everthing was there

Mine was not customized either, as far as I remember, but I did play around with some of the settings a while back and put them back. I also locked the toolbox, so I wonder if that was enough to not work with the update?
Resetting VS fixed the issue and then I added in my custom settings

@Boldline

Yes, it's a bit curios, but a very minor thing.
I like the new Location of the Transformation mode tools.

This is a nice update. I appreciate that my request for zero decimal widths was incorporated. There isn't a setting for decimal widths for pixels. It would be useful if that were added. I will also put a post in the Features and Ideas category.

Your release notes are terrific.

Show separators in color swatches

Is it possible as a user to turn off the separators?

To keep it simple, keep border color the same as background. Would that help?

I personally preferred it without the separators as it looked cleaner and was easier view. The only time it was more of an issue was if the swatches in a section were very close in color
