A shape tool now takes a press as a bounding-box handle's only on the
drawn handle square, kept square to the screen: 3 screen points from the
handle's centre along each axis at the default Anchor Size, a half point
more or less per step. A press just beside a handle draws a new shape.
drawing_gestures_snap_to_smart_guides started its second rectangle on the
first rectangle's corner handle, which stays selected; it now deselects
first.
Since #5839 the Rectangle, Rounded Rectangle, Ellipse, Polygon and Star
tools draw the selection's bounding box with its eight handles, but a
press on a handle drew a new shape from it. A shape just drawn could not
be resized without switching to the Selection tool.
A press on a handle now scales the selection as the Selection tool's
handles do: the same cursors, snapping, Shift and Alt, Use Preview
Bounds, area type frames and Backtick for patterns. The box stays on
show at the changing bounds during the drag. With the bounding box
hidden, a press there still draws.

The Selection tool's cursor now checks the ruler guides before a selected
object's centre point, as a press does. Tests: a ruler guide under the centre
point keeps the pointer and drags; on a box too thin for its centre to clear the
handles the handles take both; a shape-tool move from the centre snaps and shows
the hollow arrow; and Alt pressed mid-drag copies the shape through the engine.
The Selection tool's cursor now checks the bounding-box handles before a
selected object's centre point, as a press does (on a thin box the centre lies
within a handle's reach). The shape tools' tests cover a Live Corners widget
that lands on another selected shape's centre (the widget rounds), Alt pressed
mid-drag (the preview copies and the copy cursor shows), and the engine tests
check the copy's place and both gestures' Undo and Redo. The cursor catalog says
which arrow a drag of the selection shows.
- The Selection tool takes a Shift-press on a selected object's centre point
too: a Shift-drag moves the selection held to 45° steps, and a Shift-click
there takes the object out of the selection, as a Shift-press on the object
does.
- One rotate zone for the Selection tool and the shape tools
(`select::rotate_zone`): a press on a bounding-box handle is not a turn, so
the shape tools' zone matches the Selection tool's classification exactly.
- The shape tools' hover cursor follows the press order (corner and pie widgets,
then the centre point, then the rotate zone), and a move of the selection
shows the Selection tool's feedback: SelectionCopy with Alt, ArrowHollow while
it snaps.
- Engine-level tests for the whole gesture (`crates/engine/src/tests/shapetools.rs`):
repeated previews and one undo step, Alt copy, Escape then release, a turn
about the centre, the corner widget still rounding, and an unfilled shape
moved by the Selection tool.
- docs: evidence in target-app-parity.md's Shapes bullet and the M2 milestone,
and the Move cursor's entry names the copy and snap cursors.
A shape just drawn keeps its bounding box with the Rectangle, Rounded Rectangle,
Ellipse, Polygon and Star tools, but its centre point (Attributes › Show Center)
did nothing and the box's handles only drew: a press anywhere started a new
shape, and with the Selection tool a press on the centre of an unfilled shape
started a marquee.
- The Selection tool now takes a press on a selected object's centre point as
the start of a move (held by that point, so it snaps and Alt copies), as
Direct Selection has since #4891. A click there still makes the object the
key object of a multi-selection.
- The shape tools take it too, and take a press in the rotate zone just outside
a bounding-box corner (the Selection tool's own zone and cursor) as the start
of a rotation about the box's centre. Live Corners widgets keep the corners
themselves, so a press on a corner still rounds it; every other press still
draws a new shape. Escape cancels, as for the Selection tool's drags.
`hit_center` moves from direct.rs to select.rs, shared by the three tools.
While a polygon, star or rounded rectangle is dragged out, Up and Down
change its side count, point count or corner radius, and Ctrl/Cmd on a
star changes its inner-to-outer ratio. Escape canceled the drag but kept
those values, so the next drag and the tool's options started from a
shape that was never made.
- ShapeTool keeps those options as they were when the drag began and
Escape puts them back. A drag that is let go keeps the changed values.
An option set with tool.setOption during the drag stays.
- Session::tool_key saves the tool's options when a key cancels a
gesture, so the saved options and General > Corner Radius hold the
values Escape put back.
- docs/target-app-parity.md has one line for it.
The reference app keeps the inner radius of a star constant when Ctrl
or Command is held after the drag starts. VectorCraft's Star tool took
the held radius from the first drag event that carried the key, using
that event's outer radius. The canvas sends a drag only once the
pointer moves, so a key pressed with the pointer still scaled the
inner radius with the next move before holding it.
Ctrl/Cmd now holds the inner radius the star showed at the last drag
position before the key went down, with Alt's straight shoulders when
Alt was held. A new press and Escape clear the held radius. Before,
after a drag canceled with Escape, the next star took the canceled
star's inner radius when Ctrl/Cmd went down before that star's first
drag event.
