- The 45° move assertion compares dx and dy with a small tolerance instead of
exact equality (the matrix's floats are rounded), keeping the non-zero check
and the message.
- The engine test helpers say what they do, so the docstring coverage of the
functions this pull request touches is complete.
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 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.
Escape also clears state that earlier clicks set up, so taking Escape for a
dropped press lost it in five tools. Each now drops only the press:
- Blend: the object picked first and the blend being added to are put
back as they were at the press.
- Dimension: a dropped click picks nothing, and the points or lines picked
before stay; a dropped drag is canceled as before.
- Width: the drag ends and the width points selected at the press are
selected again.
- Gradient: a dropped click on a freeform gradient leaves the line being
drawn open.
- Selection: with the pointer loaded with text, a dropped press threads
nothing and the text stays loaded; a dropped press on a port loads none.
The snap targets of a Shift-drag that starts on a highlighted Global Edit
match are gathered when the drag begins, for the selection with the match
added, before the first preview moves it. The first preview is now snapped
to the grid or to points, and later previews snap from the original
position.
A Shift-press on a highlighted object of the Global Edit waits for the release
to leave it out of the edit. A drag from it now selects it when the drag starts
and moves it with the selection, as a Shift-drag from an unselected object did.
The snap targets are gathered after the object joins the selection.
Cmd/Ctrl held with the Pen lends the last-used selection tool (Direct
Selection until one is chosen), which already moved anchors, straight
segments and curves of the path being drawn, one undo step each, and
handed the path back to the Pen.
With the Selection tool used last, the lent tool hit-tested the
bounding box even though the canvas hides it while anchors are selected
on their own, as the end anchor of a path being drawn is. Over the
path it showed a resize pointer, and the drag scaled the path by a
handle nobody could see: a flat path did nothing at all.
The Selection tool's handles now take the pointer only while the box is
shown (View > Show Bounding Box, no anchors selected on their own), so
the lent Selection tool moves the path being drawn.
Tests: select::tests::hidden_box_handles_take_no_press_while_anchors_are_selected,
tests::draw2::pen_cmd_drag_edits_anchors_and_segments_and_goes_on_drawing.
Holding backquote while dragging with the Selection tool (move, bounding-box
scale or rotate) or the Rotate, Reflect, Scale or Shear tool applies the drag
to the selected objects' pattern fills and strokes and leaves their geometry
in place. The key state at release decides the result: the key may be pressed
after the mouse button goes down, and releasing it before the button comes up
commits an ordinary transform. Objects without pattern paint do not move.
PointerEvent gains a `backquote` flag (false when absent). The desktop canvas
reads it from the held key on every pointer event, and `ui.pointer` and the
`pointer_gesture` tool accept it per event or as a default for the gesture.
The check of a selected object's masked art looked at its own place
only. A click goes down from the layer (or the isolated container) and
never reaches a Shaper group's original shapes outside Construction
mode, however deep the object lies in them; and below a layer whose
Preview is off it hits art in outline. A press inside such a path's
fill, or on a path in a Shaper group's hidden shapes, started a move.
The way down to the selected object is now checked as a click goes:
a Shaper group's part a click can't reach on it rules the object out,
and a Preview-off layer on it (below the isolated container) makes the
object count by its outline.
Tests also cover Shift with Direct and Group Selection (a marquee) and
an object a click hits over the masked art (it is selected).

An image in a clipping mask, picked in the Layers panel, shows its
whole frame, but a press on the part the mask hides hit nothing: the
Selection, Direct Selection and Group Selection tools started a marquee
there, which dropped the selection, so the image could be dragged only
by the part that shows.
Such a press now grabs the selection by that art, as a press on its
visible part does: a drag moves the selected object (the image, not its
clip group) and a click keeps it selected. With nothing of it selected
there, or with Shift, a press there starts a marquee as before.

While an opacity mask or a pattern is edited, a press on a selected Shaper
original shape now moves it when it is not the first selected object or
shares the selection with shapes of another Shaper Group. An object in
front of the Shaper Group at the pointer is selected instead.
While an opacity mask or a pattern was edited, a Shaper double-click
selected a Shaper Group's original shape without isolating the group's
original shapes. A Selection tool press on that shape then selected and
moved the whole Shaper Group over the art the group shows, and started
a marquee over a part of the shape the group does not show.
A press on the selected original shape now holds it for a move, and
the pointer shows the move cursor over it.
Escape during a Selection tool move or Alt-drag copy, a bounding-box
scale or rotation, a marquee, or a drag of a corner widget, a pie widget
or the brackets of type on a path did nothing, and the release then
applied the drag. Only a ruler guide, mirror axis or grid repeat drag
and the loaded text took Escape.
Escape in any of these drags now cancels it, the way Direct Selection
cancels its drags: the art returns to its state at the press, an
Alt-drag leaves no copy, no undo step is added, and the release does
nothing.
Outside a drag Escape works as before.
