Absolute positioning, right now, has more than one issue and I'd like to address them all here:

  • Wrong position on a different Devices
  • Wrong position on a zoomed/panned canvas
  • Wrong position for children of the absolute component
  • Support multiple selection
  • Support touch devices
  • Support % unit

I don't know exactly when I'll start working on it but I hope soon, and as always, any help is appreciated.

Hi everyone,

Thanks a lot for the feedback and detailed discussion.

We’re happy to share that we’ve addressed some of the requested functionality. Also, we’ve introduced a new absolute mode plugin that should cover most of the use cases mentioned above.

You can read more about it in our new documentation here:

Feel free to try it out and let us know if you have any further suggestions!

Hi @artf, this feature is crucial for my current project, so I have two questions:

  1. Is it possible to pay you (or someone else) to prioritize this feature?
  2. If not, can you outline the steps necessary to resolve the issue and give me a starting point?
