Bad UX with selecting polygon

silvio3105 — Mon, 30 May 2022 11:07:13 GMT

Hi,

UX when selecting polygon(to delete it) is really bad.

I have to select each line and delete it. Why it does not select when I click on polygon?

Thanks!

Hi @silvio3105

I hope you are doing well!
For this issue, you can Press Shift when you click to delete the polygon.

Please have a try, thanks!

Not sure if I'm doing it right - I'm holding Shift key while pressing del button. Does not work.
This UX problem is not just while deleting polygon.

Here's SS of footprint.

Try to move polygon without moving any other part of the footprint.

Hi @silvio3105

You need to Activate Delete command from the Menu bar.

Then you Press Shift and click on the Polygon.

When you try to Move the Polygon as a whole, you still need to activate Move command firstly and then Press Shift to Move.

Please have a try, thanks!

And if it still can't work for you, I guess it it not a 'Polygon' defined in Fusion.

You can send me your file to check. I will send you my email address as a private message.

Okey,
I see now. Weird UX.
Is there any plans to bring normal UX for basic things?
Most of programs I use on weekly basis does not behave link this.

Hi @silvio3105 ,

I hope you're doing well. We are reporting these things to UX.

I wouldn't expect anything soon, but that team is always looking to improve our workflows and selection is definitely something they would look into.

Thanks for making the separate threads. Make reporting easier.

Best Regards,

No problem, I report every problem I encounter as new topic.
Just make sure not to skip one of them.
Most of them are on second page(for now).
