@Boldline said in Using gradient in stroke does not allow for copy and paste or other adjustments: Removing the customized preferences file did solve the issue Send me the custom pref file if this issue occurs again. It might be some settings that causes this.

@Igull your welcome ...BTW, what is your native language ??... my native language is german ...Don't you just love VS !!!!... Of course, that's why we are here I know that .wmf works in this way from the time I worked professionally and had to somehow import the strangest file formats into Corel Draw for further processing

@Boldline THis looks like a bug. I will try to replicate and fix it.

@VectorStyler Drawing content doesn't matter. This can be replicated with an empty document.

@Raven One possibility for different types of live editing effects in VS, which I often use, is to use clones! There are other ways (symbols, references) but I find clones the easiest. Unfortunately it is not possible to explain in short whats all possible in this way. But I put already some stuff together, which I wanted to show in the tutorial section. ( will notify you then) In the meantime, create any object and duplicate it with Menu "Object > Transform > Transform". Choose "Clone" in the drop down menu, play with the settings. Edit the Original in some way to see changes. [image: 1674458809374-transform.png] Its also possible to "select only the Clones or the "original" by use: Menu > "Select > Object Options > Cloned Objects" which is the Original Menu > "Select > Object Options > Clone Objects" wich are the Clones And take a look at the Picker Tools too Style Picker and Shape Picker and play with them on a Original change the Style or the choose another Shape (the Clones will follow) [image: 1674458836398-picker-tools.png] Can recommend to use the Search Function of the Forum. Or look at my Posts in the Tutorial Section i use often clones in it and in the PDF-Handbook of VS (well made from @freggern) is also in Tutorial Section.

@VectorStyler as additional information, this issue appears only for certain positions of the curves: [image: 1674302924175-1-resized.jpg] [image: 1674302933481-2.jpg] [image: 1674302943963-3.jpg]

@Boldline said in Trim between two nodes: @Igull are you wanting the option to remove a segment entirely, leaving an open path? Yes, that's correct. If this gets implemented, would it take away the current "click a segment/node and hit backspace/delete to delete the node and click backspace/delete a second time to delete the whole object"? No, that would still stand - I also like the idea of hitting backspace/delete a second time to delete the complete object. IIRC, in AI, selecting the segment then hitting delete, deletes the segment, but leaves the two adjacent nodes highlighted - hitting delete again would delete the complete object as it has both ends of it's vector selected.

@gotanidea Added this to the backlog.

@Boldline yes, they show up in the preview, even if turned off. But should not print. Try printing to file to verify it.

Thank you. I knew it was something that simple, but for the life of me, I couldn't remember

@VectorStyler I got the problem using v1.1.072, but there is no problem with v1.1.073. So the bug has been fixed in the latest version. Thanks Admin

@VectorStyler Thanks Admin. In my opinion, it would be better if we follow Adobe Illustrator workflow. Dragging a bitmap file from Windows Explorer into that application will always automatically link the image, without having to hold any key

@VectorStyler said in Last Fill/Stroke Storage: @Igull These are not stored permanently. OK, it would be really nice if that weren't the case - currently, I just create some random object off-artboard that has the correct starting fill/stroke/colour so I can pull it's attributes with the pipette tool when starting a new doc. Not being from the arty-crafty set (I nearly said arty-farty there, freudian slip ), I only use some very basic colours and strokes for my obviously superior technical purposes Like most preferences, it's just laziness - it's not as if it takes longer than two seconds to copy the object's attributes LOL, but if it can be done, it just keeps the flow going and me happy TIA Neil

@gotanidea said in How to Snap-Align A Bitmap Image to The Left Side of A Text Object Using Mouse?: @Subpath Did you also find it difficult to snap my bitmap image to the left side of the text object? yes but as @VectorStyler wrote, disable "Snap to Curve Extrema" fix it

@Igull Added this to the backlog.

Try reading the Cricut help pages - https://help.cricut.com/hc/en-us/articles/360009553213-Image-uploads-unsupported-items

@VectorStyler ok I'll try that - thank you. I'll also try and replicate the other issue where ungrouping caused the warp to change and record a screen capture

@VectorStyler said in Transpose - random proportional scaling work not as expected: @Subpath Added this to the backlog. Looks like the proportional option is ignored when randomizing scaling. thanks, was also my thought btw is also the case in Object> Transpose > Scale

@jroth you are welcome, nice that is helpful Boolean combining is exactly the same thing as combining in other vector programs. So it is nothing special. In VS you can find Combine under the Boolean operations. And of course you can also combine strokes

@VectorStyler said in Image Not Shown in PDF: @gotanidea The Precision field (first export view - PDF Options) should be larger than 0, more like 2. (should not allow 0 here, will fix this). I see. Thanks Admin
