Description Stephen Mikesell 2013-11-09 17:45:15 UTC
Request ability to create a straight Freehand Line by holding the shift key, such as found in Scribus. This would be especially useful for underlining passages in scanned documents in which the Underline won't work.

Reproducible: Always

hi,

i am new to kde and want some help in solving this bug.

i am not clear about "creating a freehand line by holding the shift key". I tried in scribus and unable to create a freehand line by holding shift key. Please guide me

He basically wants a way to create straight lines, I am confused though, since we have a tool for creating straight lines. So maybe I was a bit too quick setting this as confirmed.

Stephen, can you clarify why you need the straight line creation in the freehand tool when we have a tool that creates straight lines?
