| Summary | 0002164: Guides won't let go of snapped items | ||||
| Description | If snap to guides is on, the guides won't release an item that's snapped to the guide if it is dragged slowly. The item must be "yanked" from the grasp of the guide. This is a bug in the mouse drag handling of scribusview.cpp. It updates the item's actual position, but doesn't keep a separate record of where the current drag position is. Thus, if the user drags slowly the small drags don't accumulate into one big enough to budge the item from the grip of the guide. This also causes the mouse drag position to be *way* out of sync with the actual location of the item. I'll see if I can fix this, time permitting, but I'm leaving it unassigned in case some other kind person decides to beat me to it. To fix it, you'll need to give scribusview the ability to track the drag location of a pageitem separately to its actual location, then update it so that snap to effects apply to the real location but not drag location. | ||||

Hi, I've just recently downloaded Scribus and hit this issue. I use guides a lot for laying up text and graphics so this is important to me. I would like to offer a suggested change to the above fix. Rather than having the snap code operate all the time, make it so that the snap code does not fire until the user drops the obejct. THis way you can drag without snap firing and it only come into play when you drop it near a guide. |
