There's still a bug that makes scale factors larger than 2 somewhat harder to use. Have to figure out what's going on here. Another issue with larger scale factors is that the model will extend past the window border. So I'll have to add scrolling for the canvas in order to allow editing of larger (scaled) models. Fortunately, this is a feature already used in both dlgedit and mapedit, so it should not be hard to implement. I also improved changing shape sizes directly, by dragging the appropriate handles. So far, dragging stopped once the mouse left the handle area, which made the feature cumbersome to use. Now, once dragging started, it will only stop when the mouse button is released. Apart from the scrolling, the one bit still missing is the creation of irregular shapes. But with the dragging working reliably, that'll be fairly easy too. All that's needed is a second mode, where each individual corner can be dragged to a new position. So a feature-complete modeller should be ready soon. Then I can move on to mapedit and see what improvements are possible there.
