Hi all,
is there a reason why the current selection is not indicated by a rubberband in (at least) Tweak and Calligraphy context? I keep stumbling across this issue when I want to tweak an object but the Tweak tool refuses to work - until I select the object in question (which I can't verify, though, since the selection is not visible).
The idea was that these tools are more artistic than technical, and therefore the selection cues would be an annoyance. Though I agree of course that, at least, they need an option in prefs to show the selection cue, as other tools do. For tweak tool, it should perhaps be even on by default, but off for calligraphic.
OK, I added this in SVN (rev. 17017). It's off by default for calligraphic and paint bucket, but on for tweak tool (though this "on by default" didn't really work in my case - not even after deleting my preferences.xml file - but since it's only a click away and is remembered across sessions, I haven't inspected it further).
