| Summary | 0003785: ability to elongate a frame/shape at a junction rather than stretching proportionally | ||||
| Description | Take a shape like __ / \ \__/ (hope my ascii art transfers ok), which you want to elongate to ____ / \ \____/ keeping the same angles (rather than simply horizontally streching the whole shape). In QCad you can do something like select the _ " \ " _/ part and drag to elongate the shape along the lines at the selection/nonselection boundary. There would have to be a modifier key to allow selecting individual segments in a shape, or to allow a selection window to "cut" a shape in half. | ||||
| Additional Information | See screenshot for the actual case that inspired this request (from another feature request). I had to open the node editor on each frame to elongate each section (and it wasn't trivial to do) when I needed to accomodate more text, since stretching them would have messed up the 45 degree joints. I also saw a feature similar to this for rounded ends of rectangles on a screenshot on the Inkscape site. | ||||

Hey, what happened to my shapes? They were supposed to be hexagons. |
|
|
Do we really need this in a layout program? |

Laser, this ticket reminds me of one of your tickets, right ? |
