kevininspace Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 When using the parallelogram, I've noticed that regardless of the click sequence, all parallelograms (shape tool) seem to be right-handed only. That is, when the first click is on the bottom left or top right, both points selected are on the parallelogram because the parallelogram itself has the "up-and-to-the-left" angling. Starting the first click on the top left or bottom right creates a similar parallelogram, but this time the points selected are "floating". I know I can flip/rotate, etc., but just wondered if this is by design? I intuitively would have expected that the clicks always end up on the shape, so that starting on the top left or bottom right would create a left-handed parallelogram. (Note in the image below, that when trying to create left-handed parallelograms, both clicks are "floating" and are not on the shape.

toe_head2001 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Yes, it's how that shape is defined. The points may appear to be floating outside the shape; they're on the bounding rectangle. If you'd like, you can create your own custom shapes. https://www.getpaint.net/doc/latest/ShapeTools.html#21 Quote My Gallery | My Plugin Pack Layman's Guide to CodeLab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
