The "enter group" feature also is activated by double clicking the group ... leaving the group can be done by double clicking outside of the group

I always used node tool, select path then change to select tool but if rotating use the transform panel. Press escape returns to group. Yours is a good tip, many ways to skin that cat.

The bomb is an appropriate icon for the experimental effects. The only ones I've tried ... crash. Still, cool to see there's more stuff being considered and/or worked on, and to have the ability to help test.

Great Video Nick. The hyperlink will also work if you open the svg file in a web browser. Double clicking groups with the select tool will enter them. That needing to reset thing is certainly a bug.

Quick request for the Inkscape developer: Is it possible to have the rest 'faded out' when you enter a group double-clicking, like it is in Illustrator? Maybe for Inkscape 1.4 :)

@@GraphicdesignforFree We do it for the objects/layer dialogs, if you hold alt and hover over the items, I cant image it would be impossible to do as a preference feature.

@@doctormo Thank you so much for considering :) And yes, Alt-hovering over the Layer items is a great feature! Thanks :)
@GraphicdesignforFree 10 ай бұрын
@@doctormo Also, I think it would be a great feature for beginners, because it gives visual feedback when you're inside (or outside) a group. Illustrator also shows at the top how deep you are in a (nested) group, but I find that actually annoying, so you could leave that out :)

Can I use the PDF hyperlinks tool to add relevant page jumps from a PDF’s Table of Contents page?
@riel4553 10 ай бұрын
If the PDF is very long I think Scribus might be a better option. As in, create the PDF with Inkscape then switch to Scribus to make the anchors and let Scribus generate the table of contents,. I don't think Inkscape would be user-friendly with that task.
