Unable to edit region below #267

Open regexgit opened 1 week ago

regexgit commented 1 week ago

I create 2 polygon regions: photini_bug_1

I don't want to overlap, so I would like to modify the 1st one (the one below) as follows: photini_bug_3

To do this I select the first polygon and and rigth-click on the line, but apparently it was the 2nd polygon that received the event: photini_bug_2

with the error:

14:31:03: ERROR: photini.pyqt: 'PolygonRegion' object has no attribute 'highlight'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/gto/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/photini/pyqt.py", line 190, in wrapper
    return func(*args, **kwds)

    self.highlight.setPolygon(polygon)
AttributeError: 'PolygonRegion' object has no attribute 'highlight'

Need to move the 1st one, modify it and put it back in place (no big deal).

Thanks for reporting this - as you can guess, it's not a situation I'd tried. Something else to fix before the next release. (Would not have happened if you could only see one shape at a time!)

You can right-click anywhere inside the polygon, not just on the line, which might help in some cases. The new vertex is created on the nearest edge to where you click.

I've just done some tests and I think this bug was fixed in commit 0a52b1e, although that was intended to fix something else.

Commit 0a52b1e ensures the active region has a higher Z index than the other regions (i.e. it's on top of them) so it receives the right-click events. An exception is if the active region completely covers another region. In that case the other region has a higher Z index, so you can click on it to select it. Commit 5e133ad3 ensures that unselected regions ignore right-click events.
