Detail optimization and function enhancement

@monsterfox said in Detail optimization and function enhancement:
It is suggested to move it to the position of the color box below.
The problem here is that the "remove" icon does not mean removing the "color", but the "fill". That is: it must be available for any of the selections made on the top-left dropbox.

Here are the issues and suggestions:1. These tools can't display parameters in real time. When using the straight line tool, it's often just a temporary measuring tool, and I need to undo the operation after checking the angle. The offset tool also can't update in real time, while the drawn straight lines have this function.
2. After using the offset tool, the stroke shifts, but the "skeleton" (not sure about the correct term, temporarily called skeleton) stays in place. In scenarios like the example, when duplicating a graphic in place and offsetting the upper path, it's mostly impossible to select the lower graphic—instead, the upper "skeleton" gets selected. Hope the offset tool can make the skeleton and stroke shift as a whole for easier selection of other graphics.
3. The rounded endpoints show abnormal transitions when using the width tool. For regular flat endpoints, even if the value in the width tool panel is 0, they aren't sharp corners when zoomed in, while AI handles these two points normally. Hope these aspects can be optimized. Thank you!

There are still issues with the path extension tool. I intended to slide downward, but it slid upward instead. Testing revealed that it requires being very close to the bone to control it well. If the pointer is moved away slightly, it becomes difficult to control. I hope this can be optimized. My idea is to treat the control point as a center point. A horizontal upward 180 degrees allows free control of upward sliding, while downward would be the reverse 180 degrees to manipulate the control point. This should yield a better effect. Thank you.

@monsterfox Send me the file with that curve. Sometimes it depends on path curvature and the last control point.

@VectorStyler My results with the straight-line test are the same.

@VectorStyler Move this menu upward, please.

The red shape is a locked graphic. I tried to align the blue shape with the red one, but found that the operation isn't feasible. This function works in other programs.

@monsterfox I will improve this.

@VectorStyler Strictly speaking, this is an error. When using the Direct Selection Tool and the Node Tool on an unclosed path, the results displayed in the Path panel are different, which needs to be fixed.!

@monsterfox I added this to the backlog.
