Ink to shape functionality has some fundamental issues:
- having to hold the pen on the graphics tablet for ~0.5s for the app to recognise a shape is slow, unintuitive and inefficient. In the old version you finish drawing the shape and lift the pen and the shape is (much of the time) recognised; it worked fairly well
- once a shape IS recognised, lifting the pen off the graphics tablet, in my experience, results in the shape getting rotated
This functionality, to me, is broken and I've just wasted a load of time trying to work out how to get the shape recognition to work in the first place and also trying to find out if there's any way to avoid the shape rotating when I lift off (I haven't managed that bit) so I'll be looking at reverting to the old version until it's fixed.
