Feature request: ruler

Open tna76874 opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, thanks for your great project. Sometimes I miss the function to draw straight lines. Would it be possible to switch into "ruler-mode" by first starting a draw by clicking left and after pressing shift and a straight line will be drawn as long as either the mouse button or shift is released?

Regards

Thanks for the suggestion! I implemented a test version of this in the straight branch and ... it feels a bit clunky to me. It might be that I just haven't gotten the interaction quite right, but right now I'm leaning towards something more like the "shape recognizer" in xournalpp, for example, where it automatically recognizes straight lines.
