@jfraze It is a bug! when editing the stroke / fill on a text selection.

@b77 said in Document Scale: @Igull In 'Customize Toolboxes' you have an 'Edit Icon' button that allows you to change the icons. LOL, back to RTFM I literally find something new that I like in VS every day I can see myself wasting hours on this, thanks. Neil

@Dazmondo

@Boldline said in How do I update live fonts if I activate them after file is open already?: opening the replace text panel Is this the Replace Font view? If so, this does not sound normal. One the missing fonts are replaced, opening the Replace Fonts view again should have an empty list for the Missing mode.

@Ingolf My windoze is on Mac I use Parallels to emulate win10 home. Parallels automatically uses command keys to do win functions anyway, so this isn't a true representation of what win should look like. Anything that doesn't work, I just fix. Also, my contextual menus are stripped to the bare bones of what I need so again, won't look like yours. FWIW, I've attached a pic ...

@SJStalter Restarting the computer should not be needed. Maybe restarting VS only. Let me know if this issue occurs, and if there are any steps to replicate it.

@SJStalter I will try to fix this ASAP, but I have to replicate it first.

@b77 Yes, there seems to be a bug here, can be replicated!

@fde101 said in Manual Kerning ?: a failure to conform to platform standards Yes, I completely agree with you, folks that do that should have their mice (mouses?) taken away from them and forced to use trackpads It really depends on how far back you are prepared to defend these standards - I'd have a wee read of anything that Jef Raskin wrote on the subject. I'm certainly not going to defend anything assumed as a standard currently - I rued the day that apple changed command+m for move to stuff it in the dock Neil

@jfraze Got the file. This one indeed imports as curves. In this case the EPS file contains the flattened AI text, while there is also AI data stored in the file. The AI data can be opened in VS by enabling the Preferences -> Document Files -> Import AI Data from EPS. But there is a problem (bug): it looks like some of the text is not imported correctly by VS from the AI format. I will fix this ASAP.

@Boldline Yes, there seems to be a regression here. This is a bug.

@Dazmondo Amazing! Awesome job persevering and sticking in there with it all. I want to echo his compliments to you @VectorStyler - you are indeed a genius. I'm impressed so often by what you figure out and solve and how quickly you make it happen

@Dazmondo Yes, a few parametric shapes are not "scaled" (rectangle, ellipse). An other way to go around this is to disable the Direct Shape Transformation option in Preferences -> Editing Options 2 (bottom-right corner). Done and working ----

@b77 oh neat! ok that makes sense now... I was thinking in different terms and that was throwing me off

@VectorStyler This option is awesome. I would think most people have a certain preference for this and stick with it for a while but may still want access for occasional switching modes. This is an example from my viewpoint, of a set of buttons that could be consolidated into one icon with a drop-down, like the current alignment panel at the top of the UI nearby.

I am yet a bit unshure if this is really a bug, so i post that Video here. Forgot to mention in my previous Post here that in this case I did the stroke scaling via the menu in the Appearance Panel If I do the stroke scaling this way then it works only with "Scale Image Filters" set Here the video

@VectorStyler Brilliant stuff

@VectorStyler thanks - I will try it out, now that I'm aware of what it does

would also plead for a way where this option can be switched on and off in a quickly accessible way e.g. Brush panel or something similar

@mainstreet1612 Can also recommend to download the PDF manual that @freggern has kindly created. (it is easier to search in it) Here the link: VS PDF-Manual
