(13762 , 13764 , 13765) Drawing Editor Feedback

Hi, I've been trying out the new Drawing Editor for Perspective. Here's some things I've noticed that impact the usability of the tool:

  • The snapping is great, but it snapping doesn't work when adjusting shapes using the anchors/arrows on the outside.
  • Scrolling is a little cumbersome - would it be possible to add scroll click for dragging and navigating the drawing editor?
  • Adding styles/events to elements: it would be super useful to be able to add style classes and events to individual elements, especially if they supported element states like hovering for dynamic SVGs.

Hi @Cade_Allen , I'm the developer of the Drawing Editor.

I agree that it'd be nice if the resize anchors would snap- particularly to the edges of other elements.

Your scrolling idea needs some further incubation on our end, perhaps being able to drag the entire canvas to scroll would be a good feature?

Yes I agree that being able to manipulate/bind to Perspective Styles would be a good feature for the Drawing Editor.

I'll create feature appropriate tickets internally. Thank you for your feedback!

I would be looking to existing products for this. I.e. middle mouse click to pan is the stock standard for all other image editing software I've used (Inkscape, Coral Draw, Illustrator)

Thank you!

For the scrolling, I'm imagining dragging with middle mouse click similar to Inkscape like @nminchin mentioned.
