Yes there is is !! Under Panel options uncheck 'open selected' Happy Days

@Boldline said in Could Magic Wand work while any other tool is selected?: Part of the confusion for me is that the magic wand/polygon lasso/box icon does not turn blue when selected like the other tools in the toolbar do. Each of them, I think, is just a selection mode. Therefore, it does not highlight blue. It is not a tool in itself. At least I haven't figured it out yet. It might as well land on the contextual bar.

@vectoradmin ok yes it works. I did not have the "text on path" tool selected first. Thank you

@b77 said in Resetting the Workspace on Mac: @Prevalent-Arts said in Resetting the Workspace on Mac: The second did not for an odd reason. Must be one of those bad MacBook keyboards… Yeah I'm not sure. But at least I now have the solution.

@vectoradmin ok, that makes sense. In this case, my computer had been using too much disk space and the machine needed a total reboot. It performed better after that. I commonly notice issues happening when I'm opening an eps or PDF file from another source. Vectorstyler seems to prefer its own graphics

Hi, Thanks, that fixed it.

@Boldline I will add this to the backlog.

@Boldline I checked this and it is normal brush behavior (bending at sharp corners). Setting the stroke corner to miter in the stroke panel (first of the 3 corner buttons) might mitigate this a bit (if the corner is not too sharp).

@Boldline No, guidelines will rotate with the view (they are in document coordinates). The view rotation can be set to a specific angle at the bottom left part of the window, the second number.

@vectoradmin Awesome! thanks for sharing. Nice that it's already in VS and that it can be reverted back to it's original state if desired. the snap to guideline tip will come in handy.

@vectoradmin I tried all permutations of performance settings, the issue was still there. My guess is SVG import has some bug, perhaps. I converted the file to EPS and I was able to open in correct colors. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ulq-ZScA9SSafHVHQxczd4NftW6EXIYE/view?usp=sharing I am not in a rut to get this working so please take your time to let into this further if needed. Thanks for your help and support!

@Boldline The default is 1 pt.

@b77 said in How do I quickly change the color of a shape with negative spaces without automatically filling them as well?: Maybe the text object was pasted from AI? Yes I had made this in AI because my attempts in VS failed earlier when the font I used caused problems in VS. If I import vectors with negative shapes from Illustrator, I'll have to be checking that I've removed the extra no-fill shapes it adds in. I appreciate the video

@encart I will try to replicate this with that font.

@Boldline It is the default when not in text editing mode. But it seems that when the text is edited, the Option+Control+Comma is still assigned.

@encart said in Selecting closed path inside the object.: Sometimes the negative space shapes are complicated and in that case I think it would be nice. I will open a feature request on this one. Could you tell me please why we can't use numpad keys in custom shortcuts, as a one-key shortcut? This could be a bug.

@vectoradmin Hello, It's working now. Thanks a lot. Best Regards, KF

@Boldline In the Multiline drop down, select Distributed

@b77 lol yes we can agree on that for sure! The stacking order should be reversed regardless. I'd hope there's a way to retain colors as well. Those two edits tot he tool and I thin it will be in great condition The "Break apart" is a really awesome tool that I plan to use a lot in my work inside VS. I don't think we have to only choose one way to do this task - with the blessing of @vectoradmin both options could be available. Merging a fill shape behind a vector with open spaces already "cuts" into the fill shape - now we just need a way to ungroup that merged result (see pic below) [image: 1634944978914-bd512c44-784a-4a9b-8926-eaf9415f9649-image-resized.png]
