How does one disable the radius drag handle introduced in 1.5?

We can disable move, size, rotate, and shear in bottom left of window, but I see now way to disable to the radius grab/drag. This is impacting my ability to grab that corner to align to another shape.

Correct me if I am wrong Lowell, however, isn’t the radius tool selection only active when the radius tool is selected?

Maybe I am missing what you mean, would you maybe post a picture?

There are 3 ways to radius (without getting into Boolean and node editing)

1. using the radius tool
2. using shape properties
3. using the new shape handle introduced in 1.5

See [LightBurn 1.5 Features - LightBurn Documentation](https://docs.lightburnsoftware.com/Version1_5.html#radius-drag-handles-added)

I 100% got you and makes all sense from documentation as well, just cant see it on mine. Must have toggled something off - which - answers part of your question 😑

This has been fixed for version 1.6.00. The radius drag handle is no longer visible by default, instead, it only appears when you hold the CTRL key (CMD if on Mac).

You can download a beta version of 1.6.00 here: [Public Beta Release - LightBurn v1.6.00](https://forum.lightburnsoftware.com/t/public-beta-release-lightburn-v1-6-00/134616)
