## Info panel

|

`info.readout` takes no params and returns what Window › Info shows for the selection and the tool in use:
|
||||
`{tool, width?, height?, readout?}`. `tool` is the active tool's id. `width` and `height` are the sides of the
|
||||
selection's bounding box in points (of the box around the anchors selected with Direct Selection when there are
|
||||
some), measured as the `usePreviewBounds` preference says, and are left out with nothing selected. `readout` is left
|
||||
out unless the tool has something of its own to show:
|
||||
|
||||
- `{kind: "drag", dx, dy, distance, angle}` while the Selection, Direct Selection or Group Selection tool moves the
|
||||
selection, or the Gradient tool draws a gradient vector on the art.
|
||||
- `{kind: "scale", width, height}` during a Scale tool drag, in percent.
|
||||
- `{kind: "rotate", center, angle}` and `{kind: "reflect", center, angle}` during a Rotate or Reflect tool drag.
|
||||
`angle` is the angle turned, as `object.rotate` takes it, or the angle of the reflection axis, as `object.reflect`
|
||||
takes its `axis`. Both are in degrees counter-clockwise.
|
||||
- `{kind: "shear", center, axis, angle}` during a Shear tool drag. `axis` is 0 for a horizontal shear and 90 for a
|
||||
vertical one, and `angle` is the shear angle in degrees, as `object.shear` takes it.
|
||||
- `{kind: "brush", brush}` while the Paintbrush is the tool. `brush` is the brush it paints with, or null.
|
||||
|
||||
Lengths are in points. A drag's `angle` is in degrees counter-clockwise from the x axis. `center` is the center of the
|
||||
selection's bounding box as the drag has carried it, in document coordinates. A param is an error. In the app's panel, X and Y show the
|
||||
pointer's position from the rulers' zero point, or `center` during a Rotate, Reflect or Shear tool drag. W and H show
|
||||
the selection's size, `dx` and `dy` during a drag (with the distance and the angle under them), or the Scale tool's
|
||||
percentages. The Zoom tool adds the view's magnification and the Paintbrush its brush's name. Several selected objects
|
||||
show only the fill, stroke and type values they share, and Show Options adds a tint's swatch and percentage and the
|
||||
name of a gradient's swatch. The number formats, the rows shown between drags and the Direct Selection and Group
|
||||
Selection readouts are VectorCraft's own. Behavior reference: the Info panel overview in the

`effect.setParams` in one undo step. In wireframe mode the effect stays live and draws the edges of the faces it

builds instead of its shaded surface: each edge once, in the paths [Expand as Wireframes](#expand-as-wireframes)

gives for the 3D effect, with a 0.5 pt black stroke, round joins and no fill (VectorCraft's own choice), and no shadow or graphics.

object's own opacity, blending mode and opacity mask apply to them as a whole.

Geometry effects after the 3D effect reshape the drawn edges. Expand as Wireframes reshapes each face before it

joins the edges, so with such an effect its paths can differ from the drawn ones. The mode is saved in the native file, SVG and PDF exports
