Beta 3, OSX line width entry

When trying to enter a value in the line width field, Moho seems to be performing other actions. For example, if I type '1' it switches to translate layer, if I type '2' it switches to scale layer. It's as if Moho doesn't recognize I'm where I'm typing. We're I on a PC, it would make me suspect that num lock was on/off.

I haven't seen this behavior in any other entry fields though, just in the line width field.

Thanks.

I noticed the same issue and I'm sure LM will fix it. As a workaround, when I want a constant line width around a shape, I just select all points in the shape, and use the line width tool to adjust all the segments simultaneously.

Yes, we'll definitely fix it. Another workaround is to hold the mouse over that text field and roll the mouse wheel (if you have one) up and down.

Thanks for the tips.

I don't have a wheelie mouse (I like my silky smooth Apple mouse), but my PowerMate does the trick - it's not just for scrubbing the timeline anymore. I hadn't thought to try it in the entry fields until you mentioned the mouse wheel.

Moho 5 is sure looking sweet. Keep up the good work.

This might be a bug with several text input fields in Moho. I just found I cannot change the name of fill styles on Moho 5b3 on the Mac.

It's actually a problem with floating windows - they're not receiving proper keyboard focus. We've fixed the problem, but yes, the problem is there in the current beta.
