Cannot move small signature

Open Royal2000H opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

I tried using the Sign tool. I drew a signature and added it to the page, moved it to the approximate location. I made the signature smaller to fit in the proper form field. Now that it is small, I went to more accurately move it into the field. The interface only allows me to resize at this point.

It seems that once the signature drawing is smaller than a certain size, I cannot move it, only resize it. So then I'd need to make it large again, move it, small again. This can be difficult to get right.

I ended up just using the "View PDF" tool and drawing there instead (but that's not ideal either, the thickness can also get so thin there).

I wouldn't necessarily consider this a bug, as it's just not the best interface design. In my opinion, the solution to this would be to allow using arrow keys to move it around.

Arrow key support would be welcome, but not being able to resize and move a signature in the Sign tool with a mouse will be clunky, in my opinion. It would be nice if the resizing borders were either smaller, or perhaps a percentage of the size of the signature. Alternatively, a movement handle above the signature could be added.

Hey, I am new to contributing here and would love to work on this issue, as i have seen that the "bug" still exists.
