What were you trying to do?

-Drop roto tool -Draw square -Select the 2 bottom or top points -Try to move just them The sticky box transform gets in the way and I can't disable it

What did you expect to happen? What happened instead?

Be able to move points without move the entire thing and without a sticky box showing every time.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

-Drop roto tool -Draw square -Select the 2 bottom or top points -Try to move just them The sticky box transform gets in the way and I can't disable it

Additional details

The option on the toolbar to disable the sticky box does not work.

Just an addendum:

[devernay]

proposed solution: the selection box should have a 10 pix margin, so that all points are still easily accessible.

I can use that in some situations another thing that I am doing to do is to nudge which helps a lot but I don't think either is a ideal solution maybe this should be more a request feature than a bug report either way thanks for the feedback. Natron is a very needed alternative to the narrow options for good compositing tools.

Hello, a workaround for the problem:

1. select the points
2. Z
3. select the points
4. Shift Z
5. and move the box a bit uncomfortable but it works,

possible solution: the box cannot be smaller by XY size under selection
