Cp is not reachable when placed at end of path

Hi,

In the attached example model you can see an issue where a control point can’t be reached (cp distance is infinity). Control point 2 is placed at the start op path2. If path2 would be longer (such that the control point is not at the start of the path it does seem to be working.

Does not work:

Does work:

It actually almost looks like if the control point is already laying there before the end of the path is placed at that location that it works, but if the control point is placed at this location after the end of the path is already there that is does not work.

Note: Create transfers at crossings is enabled

I think this is related/similar to the control area question you had.

If you extend the path even a tiny bit by altering the snap point setting then it will find the CP correctly:
