Draw tool - Possible to draw shape outside image canvas

Post by cday »

When using the draw tool it is possible to draw a shape on the screen that extends outside the image canvas:

When the above image is saved, only two horizontal lines extending across the width of the canvas are added to the image.

My thinking was that when drawing a shape, it shouldn't be possible to move the mouse cursor outside the edges of the image canvas being annotated, if that can be implemented?

So the rectangle tool, for example, would always draw a rectangle.
