Description noodle724 2003-06-18 06:47:59 UTC 
The path editor in the development version is non-functional as far as I
have tried it.
Both in the development version and in stable release, there seems to not
be a method of moving path elements around, even if you can adjust the
spline controllers.
Comment 1 noodle724 2003-06-18 06:50:50 UTC 
correction...development does allow movement, thats all it seems to do...
Comment 2 Sven Neumann 2003-06-18 09:41:44 UTC 
Can we then please have a detailed list of missing features for the
development version? Please indicate which features are a must to have
and which would just be a nice addition. Without such detailed
informations this report is useless.
Comment 3 noodle724 2003-06-18 15:13:56 UTC 
It seems the problem with the development version is that either there
are key combinations necessary to add/delete path elements, or the
tool is just broken, the 'add to selection' and 'remove from
selection' buttons only affect the tool by adding a + or - beside the
cursor, respectively.
Comment 4 Dave Neary 2003-07-25 20:17:35 UTC 
Simon, could you comment on this, please? The new path tool seems
grand to me, but I'm no expert.

Dave.
Comment 5 noodle724 2003-07-26 06:23:41 UTC 
If it would be useful, I can list exactly what is missing:
- The add/remove functions don't seem to work(the add to
selection/remove from selection modes)
- More of a missing feature: there is no way to move both sides of the
point at the same time, like the normal function of stable's path
tool(either that, or meta does it, because fluxbox uses meta for its
own purposes)
Comment 6 Simon Budig 2003-07-26 22:18:07 UTC 
the tool is not finished. I am on it. Symmetrically handle movement
works though: use SHIFT while dragging one handle also moves the
opposite one. Adding/Deleting Nodes does not yet work.
Comment 7 Dave Neary 2003-10-21 11:39:42 UTC 
Closing this bug as fixed - all of the issues in it have been
implemented in the new path tool.

Dave.
