I don’t think the transform tool from Senocular does resize the controls containing the text elements like textarea. It actually scales the target. I have created my own custom transform tool which works wonderfully also with rotating cursors.

My guess is that you need to use embedded fonts.

I want to add delete control on top right, i tried alot and added 2 neew classes as well “TransformToolDeleteControl.as” & “TransformToolDeleteCursor.as”, but that control is not getting visible anyhow.
And one more thing if i move rotation control in to center then it stops working.
Can anybody please share their ideas with me.

@rui That was ultimately why I stopped using this tool and went with ObjectHandles instead.

I don like it, it just implements matrix, in some cases this is great, but if I’m applying to an container, I don want scale the container (just width/height), imagine that I have a frame border on that picture, then the border will stretch too.. i had senocular full implemented on adigitalbook.com, then i had to remove

I think there is one line missing in the function scaleTopRightInteraction. Add below
_toolMatrix.ty += oldBounds.subtract(boundsBottomLeft).y;
the line:
_toolMatrix.tx += oldBounds.subtract(boundsBottomLeft).x;

Otherwise, scaling of a rotated target does not work properly.

There is also the issue with resizing the browser. The controls and the target move apart as soon as the browser window is resized.
