Drawing Task - Rectangles shrinking on save #771

Description

@shaunanoordin

Functionality Bug?

Original report: Freshdesk ticket 25406, dated Mon 8 Dec 2025

It's seamed like there is a techniqual issue on selecting (drow rectangles) the orders.

The issue occurs after I press on "save and close".
Am using the Zooniverse's app which is been downloaded from the "Play Store", but it depends on the projects which may needs to open a page or window on the "Edge" or not!!.

Image Image

According to the volunteer, when they draw a Rectangle on a Subject image and click "save and close", the drawn rectangle changes shape.

  • The expected behaviour: Rectangles should retain the dimensions & position when they were drawn by the volunteer.
  • Applies to: possibly all projects with Drawing Tasks that use the Rectangle drawing tool (e.g. GWitchHunters)

Dev Notes

  • App version 2.15.0/102 on Android 14 (Motorola Moto e15)
  • Example screenshots demonstrate the issue in GWitchHunters.

Status

Initial report. Requires investigation & confirmation.
