G1: Gradient tool shows length and angle in measurement labels while drawing or resizing the gradient vector - #3169
Conversation
While drawing a new gradient or dragging the bar end handle, honor Measurement Labels with the same D/angle/dX/dY readout as the Measure tool. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Thanks @nrq6993-a11y. I'm not landing this as it stands. Illustrator's documentation describes Measurement Labels for drawing, selecting, moving and transforming, not for a Gradient tool drag, and we're matching Illustrator's documented behaviour. A link to a public source that shows the readout on gradient vectors would change that. If it does land later, please build the label with the shared helper from #2983 ( |
…rity). Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Code-only review at ca5fbfb; no CI has run on this head yet.
This PR currently shows no changed files (0 additions, 0 deletions), so there is nothing to review. If the Gradient tool measurement labels were meant to be here, the commits may have been lost in a rebase or the branch may already match its base. Please push the change again, or close this PR if it is no longer needed.
Re-applies vector length/angle readouts while drawing or dragging the end handle, gated on Measurement Labels like other transform tools. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

gradient.rsandmeasure.rscontain the same formatting.segment_measure_labeldoes not exist on this branch, so add the helper to the measure module and use it from both call sites. Whether gradient drags should show measurement labels remains a separate product decision.Suggested fix

Reviewed the full diff: the Gradient tool's end-handle drag now records the gradient vector, and the length, angle and offset label shows while the gesture has begun and measurement labels are on; tests cover the label, labels off and the end-handle drag. FreeBSD build + test green at 6248d8e.

cargo xtask ci is incomplete or unchecked on this PR. Run it end to end (fmt, clippy, tests, assets, brands, layers, wasm), tick the checklist when green, and reply here with the outcome. That is required before any approve from here.
Summary
While dragging a new linear or radial gradient vector on art, or dragging the gradient bar's end handle to change length and angle, show the same distance, angle and dX/dY readouts as the Measure tool when Preferences › General › Measurement Labels is on.
Plan
Grab::ArtandGrab::Enddrags inGradientTool.overlays, whenmeasurement_labelsis on and the drag has begun, add anOverlay::Measureviaxform::measure::measure.Tests
