    Default Is there a bug in the handles?

    If I work with the Shape Tool on a bitmap no handles will be shown.

    Thumbs down Re: Is there a bug in the handles?

    ernie, well on mine they come and go too for images as a shape bitmap.
    I have had similar experience with other filled shapes.

    I have to press the Tab key a few times to restore them.
    I am still getting ghosts. Where controls lines are, there are no end controls. This happens on a Cusp.
    On a Smooth Join, I lose one control end as I traverse clockwise, left gone > Tab: right gone and the reverse in the anti-clockwise direction.

    My best proof is Shift+Ctrl+T (TimeRedraw) removes all the control heads.
    My next best proof is scrolling the shape off screen and back does not restore the Control heads.
    My next to next best proof is select the shape then with the Shape Tool, click+drag over the object. Control points appear and on drag release, they vanish. Pressing the Delete key shows they were selected but invisible.

    I am glad it is not just me.

    @Xara - you repeatedly seems to fail to test any new feature adequately.
    The New Control UI is another FAIL added to my list.
    Every time this happens, you destroy the precarious merit of the Magix Update Service as you leave so many behind with broken versions.
