@debraspicher said in Selecting multiple areas without excluding overlapping parts: This is why I record every time I use VS because there's so many little things that can be easily missed. I can go back through a recording and at least see what happened even if I don't understand why... What kind of settings do you use? (Not in terms of applications) are you recording your whole screen? recording to an external drive? what kind of frame rate are you choosing? Are you doing them in small sessions? Any other tips and tricks that have worked for you?

@Raaskot Can you send me the workspace and settings files to my email address. Something is different here.

@VectorStyler Cool. What I looked for. Thanks

@macos Are you on Windows or Mac? If Windows, he means the scaling options in Settings/System > Display, not inside the application.

The Cavalry App came with a lot of Demo files which can be found here. [image: 1779106655972-demo-files-1.png] [image: 1779106661314-demo-files-2.png]

@macos The vertical text issue is identified, and the fix will be in the next build. The issue is with the new text engine. If you set the "Text Shaper" option in Paragraph Styles to "OpenType" and then in Character Options enable the "Automatic Vertical Roman" then it should work. BTW: you need to set the "Enable East-Asian Options" in Settings

@VectorStyler said in Temporarily disable snapping: @William-Kansepa on Windows should be the Control key, but you must press it after the moving started @VectorStyler Thank you so much! It's working as expected.

@VectorStyler Thanks! just emailed you the file

This would actually speed up a lot of repetitive layout work. Even just a simple “paste width only / paste height only” option would be super useful when trying to keep spacing and proportions consistent across multiple objects.

@macos Indicator styles are customizable in Settings -> Indicator Styles In the Snapping panel menu -> Snapping Options, enable the "Show Distances" (second column, top) to show distances when the Snap to Object is enabled.

How can I make clones of only the original object not the created object? Duplicate the clone

@Raaskot It seems to be a bug. workaround: turn on the "Path" object "Isolated" option in object options

@ZATOPEK That is used for images only. You can use shape Intersection for this

@Boldline The modifier for angle constraint can be added. But the center point has to stay at the center of the object for this effect

@macos I opened a bug on this and will try to fix it. Is the object in Affinity selected?

@debraspicher said in Adding More Practical Editable Parametric Shapes to VectorStyler: CSP handles this by putting them behind basically giant palettes that can be tabbed This looks like "Preset" palettes

@VectorStyler Sorry for the long delay - I will get the files to you when I can with a reference to this. Thank you for your patience.
