@VectorStyler Thank you. I appreciate it. It works, 'saving' and 'save-as'.

@marce said in Just a Pattern: @Subpath "Forum says "you can upvote a user only six times per day", Very curious, didn't know that. But dont worry, if my post inspire people or are helpful then this is fine enough

@Raaskot said in How do I drag a straight segment without bending it?: @VectorStyler Just to confirm: Is there no VS-tool (other that A or V + modifier), where you click a segment and the select the adjecent nodes and hence do the operation? No such feature. You have to select the nodes

To make the idea clearer, I’ve put together a visual overview that highlights the key behaviors and interactions of the tool. This idea comes from observation rather than direct experience, so there might be some flaws in the logic, but I believe a similar behavior could still be worth considering. The idea was also influenced by VectorStyler’s strong snapping system it made me wonder whether a form of tangent locking could exist within a similar logic.

@VectorStyler Thank you for taking a look at it, I'll get back to you.

UPDATE: When I closed the file and reopened it, the issue remained. After writing my post, i thought to close out VS entirely and restart it, and the issue is now gone. It probably won't show up in the file, but I'd thought I'd keep it up anyway

@Clippy-notes thank you for this great tutorial. Halftone feature is so deep, there is no end to what you can you do with it. I liked your stippling setup I will try to replicate

@VectorStyler Intelligent Line to Curve Conversion I will add this to the backlog. Can you send me a few before / after examples for this? Here is a short GIF showing the behavior. It allows moving straight segments without creating curves, preventing accidental distortion. Curves are only introduced intentionally using Alt. This behavior is currently possible by selecting multiple nodes, but the goal here is to allow direct segment selection and manipulation with a single click. Especially when shapes overlap, selecting the correct nodes can be difficult. With this behavior, you can directly select the segment and make adjustments more easily. https://imgur.com/a/hfikSNx
