Markup changes

Roger Harris All Messages By This Member #18860 iPhone 13. ? ? ? iOS 17.1.2 I've been a frequent user of the "Markup" editing tool in photos and am wondering if anyone else has experienced the same issue. ?After selecting the Markup tool, I want to add an arrow to a photo. ?Getting to the arrow is a little more complex than it used to be but that's not my problem. ?Once I've selected the arrow and I want to position it on the photo, I find that it's very jerky, where it used to be smooth. ?I could drag the arrow around to just the right location and angle, whereas now it seems to be pinned to certain quadrants (NE, E, SE, S, SW etc). Eventually I can usually get it where I want but not always. ? Additionally, the middle button on the arrow, which allows you to bend it often doesn't work at all. Another feature that I used to use frequently was the magnifier, which allowed you to place a magnified circle anywhere on the photo. ?Drag and drop. ?Then increase or decrease the diameter and the magnification. ?That seems to be gone completely now. It's rare that Apple takes a good feature and makes it worse, but that seems to be my experience with this.

Additionally, the middle button on the arrow, which allows you to bend it often doesn't work at all. I didn’t see this on my iPad, but I did on my iPhone. ?It can be difficult to grab the middle green dot when the arrow is straight. ?However, I didn’t encounter the problem when the arrow is curved. ?Also, it now has a snap to a straight arrow which makes it almost impossible to have a slight bow in an arrow close to the straight line.? Another feature that I used to use frequently was the magnifier, which allowed you to place a magnified circle anywhere on the photo. ?Drag and drop. ?Then increase or decrease the diameter and the magnification. ?That seems to be gone completely now. I see a lot of complaints about this, and it hasn’t been fixed in the recent 17.2 revision. ?It’s still in the documentation, but not in markup. It's rare that Apple takes a good feature and makes it worse, but that seems to be my experience with this. Please give bug feedback to Apple about these issues, otherwise they won’t be changed. ?The more feedbacks about them then the better chance that Apple will correct them.
