Odd oval gradient mask movement
Posted: January 16th, 2024, 1:28 pm
When I create a mask and use the 'Oval Gradient' tool, I see unexpected movement of the resulting mask when I try to move it around. Here are the steps to reproduce it:
1) click the over gradient but in the masks menu, shape the oval to really be oval, not circular.
2) click on the center point and you can move it around, as expected: drag left, the oval goes left.
3) click on the line going from the center point to the edge and rotate the oval by 45 or 90 degrees.
4) now try moving the oval again via the center point. It no longer tracks the cursor.
It looks like the rotation amount is also being performed on the mouse movement???
Thanks!
