    @vectoradmin Really impressive! The more I explore, the more I don't want to use any other vector editing programs. The hardest part is getting to an understanding of it all that feels natural and intuitive. I know that's just a matter of time and practice. @Torakikiii nice to see you on the forum! I think I can speak for most everyone in saying that lots of questions, ideas, suggestions and any bug alerts are welcomed and appreciated. When people ask questions, it prompts me to go explore what they are trying out and then I follow along with any answers others give in response. Questions one person asks can easily help all the users!

    @Boldline Those got hidden. The Brush Presets panel menu has a Reveal Hidden Presets command. (same works for other Preset panels).

    @vectoradmin said in Transform tool (V) select mode toggle: @Ingolf said in Transform tool (V) select mode toggle: Is it by any chance possible to toggle selection mode with a keyboard shortcut - for when I need another selection mode? I add this to the backlog. Thx - CTRL + V seems to be availble.

    @vectoradmin ok I'll try that. I figured there was a panel for that already but I was trying to find it in image effects - but now that you mentioned shape effects, that makes total sense!

    @Boldline When those nodes are too close, there can be a problem with sensitivity. I will try to find a solution for this.

    @vectoradmin I forgot to mention one more detail. When I imported the file into other software ( also AI), all objects were duplicated. I will try to recreate it and send the appropriate file.

    @vectoradmin "not very efficient to show those nodes"- because it eats up system resources? It's ultimately your decision as the developer. As far as my opinion goes, I'm torn on whether it's better to try to go forward with it using minimal selection (just bounding box), see if adding just the starting node as you suggested, or if it's better to give the full option and allow for a keyboard shortcut/menu item toggle like in Illustrator. I know it's been the default operation in Illustrator - (though you have the option in the menu in Illustrator to toggle only see the bounding box of all selected shapes if you prefer that) I liked the toggle option and used it when I needed to things would otherwise get bogged down but be able to flip back and forth to be sure I had what I wanted selected, etc... This is my go-to solution thought - give the user the choice and even leave the minimalist method the default instead of what Illustrator does. To me, I would remove this as a preferences option and just make it a toggled option with a menu click and a keyboard shortcut. Because I could see it being used both ways at different points in a design; I know I did this often in my work in Illustrator I was looking at Affinity Designer and they select all nodes and paths when large groups are selected Obviously we don't need to do what any other program does or does not do - but giving perspective on other vector app solutions I'd be curious what other people's views/ideas/solutions are on this topic

    @Ingolf Looks like a really usefull List. I guess that List is for UI-Design.

    @vectoradmin These are things I remember now. (but I think there're more.) Placing the input cursor on the text(anywhere) and Ctrl+A does not work at once. It usually requires two times of Ctrl+A, some times needs more, some times never works. This happens on English text too.(but less problematic) Emptying the text frame, changing the font to Japanese and typing Japanese put the current font back to Times New Roman. Selecting text partially does not work, I think this happens especially on Japanese vertical text. (this does not always happen so it's a bit difficult to replicate now)

    @Ingolf If the image object is inside a clipped group (as it happens when dragged in the layers panel), double click the group and the the image can be selected and moved around to show different clipped parts. Moving the shape will move the whole group (clipping shape + content).

    @Boldline It should be a single delete. I tried to replicate (composite shape, with multiple parts), but for me at least it deleted in a single step. Maybe it has to do with the shape. If there is a small example where it does not delete in a single step, please send it by email. Thanks!
