Clarify: The composite is in full control of the designspace location of the component #5

Closed PeterCon closed 3 years ago

I gather "the designspace" in this case is that of the composite, not the global designspace?

JeremieHornus commented 3 years ago

Yes indeed, variable components have their own designspace. This designspace can be accessed when a composite instanciate the component along with a set of transformations.

This also relates to #1.

Then I'd spell out, "... in full control of the composite design space location of the component..."

You could introduce acronyms after first use, "component design space (CDS)", and then use CDS everywhere appropriate so there's no ambiguity.

This should be better now. Feel free to reopen if it is still ambiguous.
