1.5.2 Watermark gets repositioned constantly during resizing

Post by XnSoldier »

Viewer - Watermark Function.
I am using various PNG watermarks with transparency. When I use the top middle box to resize the Watermark it gets constantly repositioned further to the top. Keep dragging the anchor and resizing larger/smaller to see the effect.
This happens only with the top middle anchor box not any other one.

There are four "anchor points" (aka little boxes) to resize the watermark.

no such issue in Draw mode

remain issues
  • movement
    • to reproduce
      1. grab any anchor point (eg left one) of inserted watermark
      2. drag it over opposite side
      3. drag it back to original position
      4. repeat steps 2,3 multiple times
      watermark's opposite side will move horizontally
    • expected behavior
      watermark's opposite side should not move
  • flicker
    • to reproduce
      1. grab any anchor point (eg left one) of inserted watermark
      2. slowly drag it over opposite side
      watermark will flicker
