1.5.04 Issue Rectangle and Ellipse shapes missing nodes

Updated LightBurn from 1.5.02 to 1.5.04 and ran into an issue (possibly a bug) where I created a rectangle and tried to add a node in the middle of the top/bottom lines. With the rectangle shape selected and node tool selected, there are no nodes on the screen. I tried to edit an ellipse, same problem with no nodes.

I was able to see nodes when I use the line tool to create a rectangle, or any other shape. Also the “create Regular Polygon” tool also works as expected with nodes.

Noticed this in the 1.5.03 version as well, but not in 1.5.02
If I downgrade the version back to 1.5.02 and save it, then upgrade to 1.5.04 I am able to see nodes on all the shapes in the project, but not able to see them on any new rectangles or ellipses.

Has anyone else ran into this problem?
I am running Lightburn on macOS, so windows may not have this problem.

I have the same configuration except a beta LB version. I haven’t had the problems with setting nodes in 1.4.xx - 1.5.xx. .

Just to be sure, have you converted your shapes to Path…?

(if I’ve misunderstood your problem, please let me know)

I edit nodes very frequently in 1.4.04… No beta here. Can’t say I’ve ever tried working from a primitive, tho. I can give it a go in a couple hours if needed.

I am able to edit nodes on primitives, but only after I round a corner on it…
Took a few screenshots of what I am seeing.
Let me know if I can try anything? or what other info I can provide to be helpful in trying to debug this.



I think I’m not completely with you, I always have to “convert” a shape to a path before I can edit nodes…
When you have used the radius tool, you have automatically converted your shape with this operation.

Thank you for pointing this out.

Using the “Convert to Path” option under edit did allow the nodes to be enabled.
In the past I didn’t have to do this step, which threw me off now.
