Polygon Selection - Selection area changes when zooming

  • S

    I don't know if this is a bug, but it looks inconvenient.

    When creating a selection with the Polygonal Lasso tool,
    zooming with the mouse wheel is possible.

    But when zooming, the selection area changes. With other
    selection tools, such zooming is not possible.

    @Subpath I reviewed this now, and it is not a bug.

    The zooming / panning allows to reposition the canvas under the selection already drawn.
    It is by design, the alternate would be to move/resize the selection area with the zoom.
    Would that be more useful?

    I only noticed and mentioned it because I was a bit surprised. But
    personally I don't really need it. I now know how it works and I act
    accordingly.

    So I'll leave it up to you whether you think it makes sense if the
    selection changes, in that case, with the zoom.

    I think, at least as far as I've tried it, you can only zoom when using
    the polygon selection anyway.
