Shift Modifier functions in Vector Tools are not what they are described in Tooltips or Documentation.

Bezier Curve Tool

(Tooltip in toolbox):
Shift-mouseclick ends the curve.
Shift-mouseclick or double-click ends the curve.

* Only double-click and Shift-double click can end a curve now.
** Shift+doubleclick to end a curve doesn't align with what we do with Polygon and Polyline Tool.


Shape Editing Tool

(Tooltip in toolbox)
Drag to move point. Shift click to change point type.
* It's actually Ctrl + Click to change point type now.

(Documentation)
You can add and remove side handles from a selected node with the mouseleft + Shift shortcut.
https://docs.krita.org/en/reference_manual/tools/shape_edit.html#selected-nodes

* The shortcut can only Show/Hide side handles. It doesn't change the "type" of a point. It is impossible to add/remove side handles now. I remember when I was translating that page 1 year ago I was able to do so.

Are these new arrangements intentional or just regressions?

Wolthera, I'm assigning this to you -- I think it's just the documentation needs updating?
Comment 2 wolthera 2022-07-18 11:42:24 UTC
Both documentation *and* tooltips need updating, unfortunately and that is a string change.

Git commit 61ebab95e6e90a4d6b9a06c4565f9fe530f0b83b by Wolthera van Hövell tot Westerflier.

Pushed by woltherav into branch 'master'.

Update path tool page.

Some of this hadn't been updated in ages, but part of the problem is
also that the canvas input settings and tool functionality interaction
isn't ideal.
