Hi,
In updating my book, I've done a comprehensive test of the node tool.Here is a list of regressions I've found (a couple where reported earlier today).
- Clicking on the background with a node selected deselects the path
rather than the node. 2. Page Up/Down no longer adds/removes nodes when cursor is hovered over a selected node (mouse wheel still works).
Regressions
- Node selection via mouse wheel swaps with/without Shift key
functionality (spatial distance vs. distance along path).
I'm not sure about this - currently it's the Control key that selects between linear & spatial selection. If it was Shift previously, I can change it.
As ~suv points out, I should have said with/without Ctrl key. The problem is that the modes are swapped.
- Shift no longer prevents grabbing the path when doing a rubber-band
selection of nodes. 5. Shift no longer disables snapping of nodes while dragging nodes. 6. Space bar no longer drops a copy of the nodes while dragging.
Regressions. I'm not entirely sure what should be stamped when using the space bar: the current subpath, the current path (which can have many subpaths) or the entire selection?
In v0.47 it was the entire path.

Obviously a bug
- Node-sculpting pressure sensitivity with tablet lost.
Feature change or regression. The behavior of all node tool drags made uniform in that the outcome of the drag depends only on the current state of modifiers and the change in position of the mouse pointer. If pressure sensitive sculpting used the same paradigm (outcome depends only on the current pressure and position of the pen), it would be rather hard to do anything with it because the pressure decreases smoothly as you lift the pen from the tablet. If there is demand for this feature, I could break the paradigm in this one instance.
In 0.47, the shape of the path between the selected nodes is frozen when the Alt key is released. This isn't the perfect solution as the nodes will still move a bit (with the shape fixed) as the pen is lifted. Perhaps releasing the Alt key should also disable moving the nodes until the pen is returned to the tablet (or the mouse button released and pressed again).
