+| 2026-10-28 | minor | The center drag turns only the rays by one degree per document point of increasing pointer y and back at the same rate for decreasing y. This is an application rule independent of event frequency. Shift keeps the current turn. Space freezes rotation on every sample, including the first; the initial samples establish size until the gesture begins, after which Space translates the flare without changing its size or turn. Releasing a modifier resumes from the current pointer position without catching up skipped rotation. Scores and remaining estimates unchanged. |
