I just wanted to get some feedback before I submit this as a bug.
In the new 2.57, when moving, scaling etc, the mouse pointer no longer wraps to the opposite edge of the viewport i.e. you can’t just continue scaling when the pointer reaches the edge of the window.
I’m using the latest 2.57 on Windows 7 64-bit, installed from the .exe installer.
Many thanks Richard; I feel really stupid now. I’ve never had to check this option, it was always on by default on previous installs, hence the confusion.
