@vectoradmin You're doing great! I just feel bad taking you away from other important things to answer my questions on basics. I promise I do try to always look things up myself before asking. Sometimes I wonder if I'm looking up the right terminology or if it's not been added to the app yet, or if there's another option that might be better than the solution I'm used to thinking based on previous apps. i do appreciate you answering the questions because it means I can keep practicing with VS on real work

@vectoradmin thanks - I saw that option in there and wondered if it was what i was looking for - thanks for confirming

@vectoradmin Yes, I figured that out, thanks!

@Boldline Adding more things to the context panel would not work, as it already too long for typical screen sizes. An easy way to have object sizes accessible from a horizontal panel is to dock the Transform panel horizontally (drag from the panel title, to under the context panel): [image: 1611003288060-transformpanel-resized.png]

@vectoradmin yes, I'd suggest moving the brush sizing over more to the left anyway, it's probably one of the more used adjustments one would make while that contextual menu is showing

@vectoradmin I submitted.

@Jae There are additional improvements for the pen / node tool in the new build 201

@Boldline Using solid stroke as a default brush should work in the new build 201

@vectoradmin Yes - the original shape was an all vector SVG.

@vectoradmin just installed it and works perfectly now

@Jae The intersection mode problem is fixed in build 198.

The new build (198) fixes these issues on Windows: fixed: single key shortcuts were broken. fixed: when in full screen mode, first covered the task bar then the top area was moved out of the screen (hiding the menu bar). modifiers for pencil, pen and node editor tools are fixed. The documentation update is still in progress

@Boldline The WIndows installer is signed now with EV code certificate. This should have a better user experience in installing

@curvy1 There is only Windows 10 version planned for now.

thanks @badcat - that solved it. I'm not sure how I turned it off but it wasn't intentional and then I was thinking it was a preference option I needed to use. thanks for the help!

Much better, thanks!

It seems to be working now! Thanks!

@b77 That's a great tip, thanks a lot!

Thanks for your reply!

I also am very grateful for Vectorstyler and the dev team putting this together. I am currently clinging to Adobe CS6 as I remain hopeful for a replacement app more powerful to replace it. I am completely opposed to subscriptions and much prefer the alternative solutions many software companies are using. I like the system Serif uses and also the proposed one VS will offer. I want to support developers and pay for the software that allows me to do work that pays my own bills - I just don't want a draconian overpriced subscription service as my only option. I was/am a fan of Affinity and have used it wherever possible over Illustrator but always end up back in Illustrator to finish off designs I started in Affinity on ipad or desktop. Unfortunately, Affinity is on a slow improvement track and vital tools I use daily for work are long promised and slowly delivered. I love the responsiveness of the VS dev team and their willingness to listen to our ideas and consider them and then to even implement them in short time frames. It makes me feel proud to see input I've given as a professional vector artist, show up in an app that will benefit so many. I'm sure many of us feel that way. I'm also so impressed with the sheer number of options and abilities for what can be accomplished in a vector app. VS blows away Illustrator, Affinity, Corel, etc... It becomes more user friendly and ready for RC all the time. Thank you for dedicating yourselves to making this a great solution for those of us stranded by Adobe and Affinity in some ways and other apps.
