PreserveOverTransform: the ability to optionally preserve certain attributes whilst transforming an object.

A good example is be the stroke width of a path. When you resize the path, the stroke also gets resized, making it fairly awkward to maintain a regular stroke width across several objects that you might be manipulating. It would be nice to be able to preserve the stroke width so it does not become inconsistent.

This should be controlled by toggle buttons in the selector toolbar. Things to preserve/not preserve separately:

  • stroke width
  • gradient fill
  • pattern fill
  • bitmap fill (when we have it)
  • mask (when we have it)
