Line width request

[Ultra Pulse]

Another request from me.

Can you put in an option so that you could choose a custom amount of pixels for the width? instead of doing extra work, apperantly line 8 width as a max doesn't work for me, I don't know about you.

Not interested or your eye didn't catch the topic name.

I noted your request.

Ultra, Attached zipped fun file has an eight pixel line and 2 rectangles; well, they started out as rectangles. First rectangle had the right end points selected and moved down. Second rectangle (copy of first) had a couple points added to the center edges and then the center and right end points were moved. KoolMoves' point handling tools give you a lot of drawing flexibility.

Check your grid settings under File > Preferences, and select a grid style under Movie > Options to help maintain consistent line width, if needed. Use the magnification to help tweek the final point placement. You may actually prefer this approach as it allows you to have variable segment width.

Using the point tools is covered in the Drawing, Selecting, and Reshaping sections of the Help Manual or in Chapter 2 of the User Guide. You can also add curves if angles aren't your thing :) .

Please post a response if this addresses your requirement. If not, please post what visual effect you are trying to achieve; someone may have a solution.
