v2.3.1 - Max 3 - Erase stroke mode deletes circle by bounding box and not the stroke

When using the pen in erase stroke mode (where individual strokes are removed rather than the area under the eraser) a circle is erroneously erased by its bounding box and not when the eraser contacts the circumference of the circle.

It is obvious this issue occurs because the circle is drawn with a square bounding box and this box is used to detect erase events over the circle. This means the eraser deletes the circle as if it were a square, which is very annoying!

This makes it very hard to erase lines that are close to a circle as this will almost definitely erase a circle.

 

Solution: Instead the circle should ONLY be erased when the eraser moves over the circumference of the circle. Avoid using a bounding box and instead define the geometry of the circle by its circumference.

 

BOOX please fix this issue.
