BUG: Sketching > Line Tool

LineToolBug.JPG

 

When using line tool and making quick mouse movements line stops are created which is unwanted behavior, it doesn't happen when moving mouse slowly to make two points.

 

In image above that supposed to be a single line but it was terminated in circled point.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Thank you for posting in the forum! I think I know what is happening here. 

 

If you drag left click after clicking one point to start creating a line, it will put an endpoint of the line at where the cursor is when releasing left click. I guess this is happening when you make quick mouse movements. Does this sound like what is happening?

I am not releasing mouse button entire time, please check if same behavior happen to other users, if not then it might be issue with my logitech trackball mouse.   It only happens with Line tool and none others.

Hi @Anonymous,

 

Thank you for your response! If you intend to create a line, you can release left click as soon as you select a start point for the line and no need to hold/drag it.  

 

Separate lines are not created if I keep holding left click and I haven't been able to reproduce the issue.

understood, I'd say we keep this discussion open for few days and if no one
reports similar behavior then we can close it as a fluke on my part

I can verify on my end, if you select your first point and then release the left button, you can drag your line at any speed desired and it will not produce more than one line segment.
