--- Comment #2 from Eyal Rozenberg <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Rafael Lima from comment #1) > Hi Eyal, I attached a video showing the workflow you described. So, after > inserting the first shape and entering text, when I click the shape tool to > insert the second shape you would like that nothing was selected? Yes, I expect a de-selection. Note that, in your example, your new text box did not intersect the existing box. It would be more distracting if you intended for the boxes to intersect; and even more distracting if the contour took up more of the shape's area on screen, e.g. a star shape for example. > The current implementation seems natural to me. What would be the advantage > of having nothing selected? 1. User will not be distracted to focus on now-selected shape (the selection indication attracts attention). 2. Contour won't obstruct the view of where you might place/draw the object. > IMO there are two things that could be improved in this workflow: > 1) When the user finishes drawing the shape, the shape tool should no longer > be selected in the sidebar, since the command is no longer enabled (you > can't immediately draw a second shape) > 2) If you click a shape tool and give up drawing the shape, it should be > possible to press Esc and return to selection mode. That would be nice, but would be a different bug :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
