As I was testing the line feature in Microsoft Paint in Windows 7 (Version 6.1, Build 7600) I noticed a (small) bug in the line drawing behavior.
When one draws a line (and before the line loses focus), I noticed that Rotate 180 degrees, Flip vertical, and Flip horizontal all don't work on the line. It seems as if a line gets treated differently as the other shapes (all other shapes have a dotted bounding box around them, whereas a line doesn't). However, its strange that Rotate left/right 90 degrees both work but Rotate 180 degrees doesn't -- maybe somebody just forgot?
The issue can be resolved in one of two ways: gray out the three Rotate drop down options, or (better) implement the logic necessary to get the three malfunctioning rotates to work.

its kind of the same thing with me, only its reversed for me. rotate left & right does NOT work, but rotate 180, vertical, & horizontal DOES work.
ReplyDelete& its with anything, not just with a line, its with everything. text included. its a disappointment because i love MS paint, & this is the first error ive found in it. :/
