Detail Optimizations for Version 1.3
-
@VectorStyler I hope to add a lock function to the Recent Operations panel, which should have the following two features:
1. Locked operation records will not be overwritten or updated by subsequent operations and will be retained permanently.
2. Locked records cannot be deleted directly; they need to be manually unlocked before deletion.In my daily workflow, I often need to save a set of recent operations. However, if I don’t use them for a short period, they will be replaced by new operations. If I need to reuse the previous set of operations later, I have to perform all those steps again, which is rather cumbersome.
If this lock function is implemented, I can lock the required operation set to prevent it from being lost. When I need to use it, I can just delete all existing records—since the locked operation set won’t be deleted, I can use it directly, which will greatly improve my workflow efficiency. I sincerely hope this feature can be added.

@monsterfox I added this to the backlog

@VectorStyler I hope that when an object is selected first, and then a shape from my custom styles is chosen, the selected object can be replaced with the styled shape at its original coordinate position.
If a node is selected instead of an object, I also wish that the styled shape can replace the node at the node’s current coordinate position. This would enable much more precise shape replacement operations.
It would be absolutely perfect if this feature could be integrated into the shape selection tool, style panel, and the shape selection function in the menu bar.

@VectorStyler I would like to suggest an optimization for the Group Overlapping feature in VectorStyler. Currently, when this option is triggered, it identifies and groups all objects that overlap with the selected shape.
From my experience as a user (and based on common forum discussions), the primary use case for this function is resolving unintended overlaps from misoperations, where the end goal is to delete the redundant overlapping elements. The existing design forces users to manually separate one base object from the grouped overlaps before deletion, which adds unnecessary complexity.
My suggestion is to add a logic adjustment: when activating Group Overlapping, automatically retain one original overlapping object outside the grouped set (not selected by the grouping action). This would allow users to directly delete the grouped redundant parts in one go, significantly streamlining the workflow—especially useful for tasks like complex pattern design where accidental overlaps are frequent.

Send me an example file with before / after grouping.

After using the move operation, all previous settings will revert to the default state in about one minute. Is there a way to make it remember the previous operation settings?

It should keep the previous values, if not it is a bug. I will try to replicate this

Were there some other commands used after the Move?
-
@VectorStyler Yes, I edited other graphics after performing the move operation. When I executed the move operation again about one minute later, these parameters disappeared.
