Release them Magnets

Hey Gil,

Looks like you are starting to take care of the stuff on your list.

Releasing Them Magnets would be Nice.
 

Thanks

I haven't heard that song.

[bpducman]

How about a song that will back us up one key stroke and that could also release the inadvertent magnet connection.

like pressing the "end" key just one stroke not holding ctrl and pressing r.    I am not to demanding am I.

 Lol

Don't get me wrong I like the magnets... I want to keep the magnets. But I am just a Klutz sometimes when I get moving fast.

I already provided a way to release or prevent the magnetic connection that's why I made fun of the question.  If you zoom in and move your cursor over a handle you will notice there are 3 hot zones.  The middle zone directly over the handle is the way it used to grab.  The 2 new hot zones I introduced weeks ago will turn into a left or right pointing hand.  When you use the hands it doesn't magnetically connect and it will release an existing connection.

OH

never mind

Hey Gerry and Steve, did the graphic and topic of the hot zones ever make it into the manual?  I scanned through the Google Docs version and didn't see it.  I could have very well missed it.  I'll try to locate the image and drop in the manual otherwise.

I took some time off of new content for the manual.  I'll get back to it soon and add it in.

I think others have stated it, but just in case, 4.2.8 doesn't allow releasing magnets, no matter how far I zoom in.

Confirmed, Michael Jackson's gloves are missing in 4.2.8

[Gilrock]

I don't think 4.2.8 came anywhere near that cursor hover logic.

It could have been 4.2.7, but I never installed that version.
