Editor

This document is for detailing usage of the Editor by regular users (as opposed to the [API of the Editor for programmers]{@tutorial EditorAPI}).

Until we may flesh this document out further, we may begin with tips on the features which are more non-obvious as to usage (including for novices to graphic design). Feel free to file an issue to request documentation on a particular feature.

See also some possibly out-of-date documentation at [FrequentlyAskedQuestions]{@tutorial FrequentlyAskedQuestions}.

Paths

When working with a path (as created by the Path tool left ("mode") toolbar item or "Convert to Path" in the "context" toolbar at the top), chosen by the "Select" left-toolbar item, clicking the item once will allow the normal resizing/rotation, and clicking the item again will allow for independent manipulation of the path and display a different context-dependent toolbar at the top of the screen.
