Description Vladimir Savic 2006-10-16 12:24:30 UTC
Try changing preview mode when transforming (using transform tools) path. No matter which mode is picked preview is always image+bounding box. There's no way to make grid appear, for example.
Comment 1 Michael Natterer 2006-10-19 11:58:56 UTC
gimptransformtool.c has a comment here:

 /*  Draw the grid (not for path transform since it looks ugly)  */

So fixing this is easy, the question is if it's desirable. Opinions?
Comment 2 Vladimir Savic 2006-10-19 12:11:33 UTC
Maybe it doesn't look pretty, but at least it should be possible. It looks even uglier to have an options sitting there without any real meaning. I'm talking about consistency here.

Maybe you should remove preview mode option for transforming path. I don't know...
Comment 3 Michael Natterer 2006-10-19 14:07:52 UTC
You are right. Consistency is more important here. Fixed in CVS:

	* app/tools/gimptransformtool.c (gimp_transform_tool_draw): allow
	showing the grid for path transforms. Fixes bug #362588.
