Sketching Constraint

Question
Taylor S.

The Constraint "point on a line" is a default when initially drawing a sketch on an existing line. I am wondering if instead of "point on" and "vertical" the default should be "collinear" for vertical or horizontal lines landing on vertical and horizontal lines. Maybe I just need to give it a chance?

I am also wondering about the icons for constraints; they are coming up a little small for me on both my work 32 in monitor and my 16 in laptop. making a custom appearance scaling for just the constraints might be a good option. I also wonder about changing the icons themselves to be a bit more distinct one from another.

EDIT: This constraint change is implemented as of 0.9.6.

Hey Taylor, that is a good suggestion on the collinear constraint topic. I will implement it, so if a line is placed on another line, parallel to it, collinear will be the automatic constraint. Should be live on either the next release or the following.

As far as the scaling goes, please let me know for each Leta instance you're using-
Your monitor resolution
Your windows scaling factor
Your Leta scaling factor

And I will reproduce your setup on my end and see how I can improve it
