Description benedikt.kircher 2016-04-12 06:55:40 UTC

"Menu->View->Show Painting Assistants" settings does not globally hide the assistant-effect previews. 

Test: Make parallel Line Assistants and try to hide them globally.
Applies to 2.9 as well.

Hi Benedikt,

Thanks for your report. I can confirm there's some weirdness going on here!

Comment 3 wolthera 2016-05-05 13:59:13 UTC

that's weird, both options are working here on ubuntu 16.04 with master git 3991551

Comment 4 Camille Bissuel 2016-05-05 14:10:33 UTC

Sorry for the duplicate… was working for me on 2.9, but is not on 3.0 under Antergos (Arch linux).

Comment 5 Scott Petrovic 2016-07-14 12:43:05 UTC

For me, hiding the painting assistant option is working, but NOT the "Show Assistant Preview" option. 

The assistant preview is always being shown

Comment 6 Odysseas 2016-07-15 07:25:57 UTC

I am on Windows 10, and the results are inconsistent: 
If I have just one assistant, both options are working as they should, most of the times at least. 
The weirdness starts for me if I have more than one. Usually they remain visible no matter what, except if I click on their eye button to switch them off.

Is it possible that *some* assistants have this issue?

Comment 8 Scott Petrovic 2016-07-17 16:58:59 UTC

I tested out different scenarios and think it should be working ok now. I only did one fix, but there might have been others after 3.0 was originally released. 

I thought there was another issue with the perspective assistant, but it ended up that I just needed to rebuild that file and it worked ok.
