Selection & symmetry

[ghost]

1. when you make a selection on one side of an axis and then move it relative to the axis the mirror selection moves in the same, not opposite direction.
2. that one-pixel disparity (affects the vertical symmetry mode too):

It's a known issue but too risky to fix it on v1.1 (it needs a special behavior to do this)

[ghost]

this might be related then: when you select something in no-symmetry mode and then switch to a symmetry mode and move the selection, the corresponding pixels on the other side of the axis don't move.

Also this symmetry mode seems so "limited", why only one symmetry point (either vertical or horizontal)? Why not allow all of them (vertical, horizontal, and angled)?

Hi @ArekX, I've decided to add a simple symmetry mode for the first iteration (v1.1.1). But in the future we could have other kind of symmetries (even multiple symmetries at the same time).

[ghost]

when there are several symmetrical objects on the canvas and they all have different symmetries it might be reasonable to put each on a separate layer and associate the corresponding symmetry mode and axis position with that layer.

@ArekX there's also radial symmetry.

Bumping for mirrored selection movement. :D

Would love to see selection respects symmetry. That would be a fire feature to work with. 🔥
