Description

data stored in the selection buffer might not be displayed in a few specific scenarii, misleading the user into thinking it's lost

Steps to reproduce the bug

  1. previewing a transformation of the selection
  2. opening a new image (ctrl+t)
  3. changing the active tool to a tool which isn't a selection tool, nor another transformation tool (eg the pencil)
  4. coming back to the initial image

result:

  • it keeps the pencil as the active tool window-wide, which includes the tab of the initially edited image (correct?)
  • it doesn't deselect the area (correct? incorrect?)
    • but the app doesn't know how to handle the selection buffer when the tool is the pencil, so it displays a transparent area missing pixels, as if the data was lost
    • yet the data is not lost, if you enable a selection tool it's displayed again (correct)
    • but the transformation has been cancelled (incorrect?)

System

  • Device (desktop computer/tablet/phone/...): any
  • OS: any
  • Desktop environment: any
  • Package format: any
  • App version: 1.1.x
