The one thing I don't like about the new selection tool is that if
you start out using the selection tool, use it to fully edit
something so that a different tool opens up, when you're finished
with that editing, the program doesn't go back to having the
selection tool active. So whatever tool you were most recently
working in (activated by the selection tool) remains active, and I
find it disconcerting because mentally I was working in the
selection tool and expect to still be working with the selection
tool once I finish some specific task I started with the selection
tool.
It's a petty gripe but it's something I find bothersome.
Dear David,
I agree, but then it only takes using the "escape" key to get you back
to the selection tool, and I'm not sure how this function would work
otherwise. If there's a better way, maybe we could propose it.
Chuck
