Hello !
As a designer I am a fan of the Shift + Draw feature which is so useful for example when using the Calligraphy tool.
As a svg filter effects designer and because objects groups management is promised to increase in importance in this area I would suggest an improvement to it.
At the moment if you select a path, press Shift and draw, when you release the Shift key the newly created path combines with the previously selected one.
What I would suggest is :
- if the selection is an object it would work like it does now, combining the paths ;
- if the selection is a group, then when you release the Shift key your new path (or any newly created object) is simply added to this selected group.
That could add a new functionality to this feature without changing anything in the UI !
kindly, ivan
