New Polyline Behavior In AC12

Anonymous — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 22:31:50 GMT

I just drew a rectangular polyline using the "rectangle" mode by drawing it from the lower-left corner to the upper-right corner. When I select on the lower-left hotspot to stretch the corner, it acts as if the polyline isn't closed. I wind up with a rectangle on which 3 side are in their original position, but the fourth one's end point isn't on the rectangle anymore. (See screen shot)

I checked AC10 and AC11 and neither one of them had this behavior. I find it very annoying because, if I want to move the position of the lower-left corner I have to do one line, then the other. Is anybody else getting this freakish behavior?

Jay,

Yup, I get that too. It is only the bottom left hand corner, the others all behave "properly". This seems like a bug to me, but perhaps someone can explain how this is really a design feature that we really want.

Yes, And it happens at which every corner you start your polyline from. Not just the bottom left. I leave it to you to report it.

That's not a bug. That's a feature.

I really wish Graphisoft would include fewer of these "features".

I'm horrified, too.

Just reported to GS, in case it was not already on their list.

You would love the explanations why they happened even more ...
