  @b77 ok thanks that was it! Once I unchecked that, it all moved easily. I wish there was a way to have the best of both options

  @Yaoif It should be, depending on the task of course. VectorStyler aims to have all the features of a high-end vector illustration application. It supports variable and color fonts and has advanced typography features. What are the specific features you are looking for?

  @Raaskot said in Pdf export: All text turns into gibberish: Typesetting is incredible cumbersome, unpredictable and very unstable I have to replicate this. The Leading attribute set in the Character panel is applied only to the highlighted characters. There is also a leading property in the Paragraph panel for whole paragraphs.

  @Raaskot I know you can create something like this and more with the Repeater. As you can see in this thread, for example. https://www.vectorstyler.com/forum/topic/2295/repeater-halftone-problem-on-rasters/53 . . But anyway, here is a little Online Tool that also has something to offer. The result can be saved/downloaded as SVG. https://labs.adobe.com/experiments/hello-halftones/ Here yet a old Thread of mine about that Tool. https://www.vectorstyler.com/forum/topic/1089/tip-halftone-generator-bitmap-to-vector-graphics-svg/4

  @Raven said in Pen tool behaviour when extending an open path: Is there a preference or modifier key that governs the behaviour? In the context panel, uncheck "Adjustments" Cannot seem to get the node being moved with the spacebar method to snap to the segments or nodes of the same path (if snapping is enabled). Yes, there seems to be an issue here, I opened a bug on this one.

  @VectorStyler: I am using VS 1.1. I reckon it is in 1.2 Beta? Don't answer that: I found it! Thanks to @Subpath and @Boldline's screenshots!

  @VectorStyler Thank you for the explanation. I suspected the precision might be related to internal calculations. I appreciate your time in confirming that is the case.

  And… there's no need for icons in the 'Save Style' dialog — a checkbox with a text label that says 'Global' (or anything descriptive) would work great, IMO.

  @Pat I managed to replicate the preview issue in Windows 11. It seems that the Windows 10 preview solution does not work on Windows 11 file explorer. Not sure yet what causes this issue.

  @VectorStyler Thank you! I don't know why I wasn't thinking of the combine operations for this. I appreciate the reminder!

  @VectorStyler Thank you for changing to positive values. @VectorStyler said in Spacing between Objects: @Kumr said in Spacing between Objects: I noticed that the values to be in negative to get the spacing, it would help (for my mind) if it is other way around? I will change this.

  @Raaskot Yes, I found the error. it is in 1.1 only, 1.2 should be fine. I will provide a fix for this and others soon.

  @b77 said in When copy paste a layer -- layer name is altered: need to use 'Copy' from the Edit menu That makes sense. Though still missing the layer structure transfer things work more as expected when using menu-copy. Yet I acknowledge fully your suggestion to @VectorStyler.
