<pre>Description:
The Draw/snap option labeled "When creating or moving objects" implies that
when you create or move an object, that bounding boxes will snap to grid
points, etc. But this option does the opposite.
Steps to Reproduce:
N/A
Actual Results:
One would expect that new objects would snap when they're created, in any
arbitrary aspect ratio. In actuality, the option:
* disables snapping on new shapes (the exact opposite!), and
* fixes the new shape's aspect ratio at 1:1, which is completely unexpected.
Expected Results:
One would expect that new objects would snap when they're created, in any
arbitrary aspect ratio.
When a user is trying to draw a rectangle and it always comes out a square,
they'll naturally look through Draw's options. But they won't find a
corresponding option. As I did, they'll have to find the solution in a forum or
by digging in Help.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: N/A
Additional Info:
The simple fix is to rename that option:
"Aspect ratio of new shapes is 1:1"
or
"Default aspect ration of new shapes is 1:1", which hints at the keyboard
shortcut to unlock the ratio.
