Thats why the "Contourline" option in the NodeEdit Palette exists. Simply select "Flow around Contourline" and edit the Contourline to your needs. |

Thanks, that is great for fine manual tuning (which is not most common task). But word "simply" does not describe this case very well (that's why I choose "feature" severity, not a bug). For simple and quite common action like setting equal flowaround distance for all sides of rectangular frame now we need: 1 go to "shape" in PP 2 select "use contour line" 3 click "edit" 4 click "edit contour line" 5 set spacing step 6 click "reduce" or "enlarge" button 7 click "end editing" Adding "flowaround distance" field next to "Round corners" would decrease this procedure to 2 steps (for most common case of equal distances): 1 go to "shape" in PP 2 click "up"/"down" arrows or simple (indeed simple!) roll mouse wheel Setting different distances for different side of rectangle is quite complicated task too - one need to manually calculate and set coordinates for each corner point. |

we definitively need a better way to manage the contour line for simple cases. this will go into the new PP... |
|
|
btw, ale, what about new PP? I didn't receive any messages from you. |

I played around a bit with shapes other than rectangles and saw that flowaround distance is absolutely necessary: just try to set flowaround via contour line for triangle or arrow-shaped polygon and you will see too. And one more stupid question: is contour anything more than polygon attached to frame? |
