Created attachment 127630 [details] the glitch SUMMARY Holding Cmd seems to allow Outline Selection Tool to draw straight lines, similar to Polygon Selection Tool. But instead it causes UI glitches. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Switch to Outline Selection Tool. 2. Draw a curve, but don't close the outline 3. Holding Cmd. 4. Click on canvas. OBSERVED RESULT It does nothing but glitches the UI. See attachment. EXPECTED RESULT A straight segment should be added to the current unfinished selection outline. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS macOS: 10.14.6 Krita: Nightly build (44e3f62) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Same with 4.2.9.
Im sorry but I couldn't reproduce the issue with the instructions given. If I make a curve and lift the pen the selection is created. Then pressing and Hold Cmd and click on canvas creates a new selection. Could you explain some more or post a video that shows the issue? Tested on macos 10.14.6 krita (94a83a7)

I attached a video. Hope it makes things clearer!
Thanks for your comment! Automatically switching the status of this bug to REPORTED so that the KDE team knows that the bug is ready to get confirmed. In the future you may also do this yourself when providing needed information.
This is a problem caused by the fact that the canvas isn't using graphics acceleration. We implemented graphics acceleration via opengl to resolve issues like these, though it can be turned off when your device's opengl support is terrible. I recommend turning on graphics acceleration in the preferences, or just living with the glitch.

And it's not a visual glitch only, but functionality issue too. So I think at least one of these two should be considered a confirmed bug.
Uh, actually this issue still happens to me with canvas acceleration on.
Does this happen with canvas acceleration turned on using 4.2.9 or only in master? I cannot get it to happen with opencGL turned on in any mode. High quality, triliniear, nearest Neighbour, in any version. Also please attach the information in from menu: Help -> Show system information for bug reports.

It happens to me with any combination of (4.9.2, nightly) and (canvas acceleration on, canvas acceleration off). No discernible difference.
Created attachment 127936 [details] the selection is inverted
In 4.3.0 (git 2bae978), the UI glitch doesn't happen. However it selects the "outside" of my intended region. Is this normal? (See the latest attachment)
Its normal if you press "alt" while releasing the selection action. Notice how in the video you can see selection change to substract mode (the minus sign). so instead of replacing the selection it substracts from your current selection. Im closing this bug as you no longer can reproduce the behaviour in 4.3 If you have other problems with selection open a different bug to give every issue a better follow up.

Yeah but I were 100% not press "alt"... Anyway I'll submit another bug report for that.
