Inkscape 1.3
Yes!<p>I use regularly Inkscape, and it has been a constant source of frustration. The UI is the exact opposite of how I expect things to work.<p>It's improving at breakneck speed though. 1.2 already solved some of my frustrations (the new interface for linecaps & line dots, amazing!)<p>Almost all the features in this release seem to solve a major frustration I had with Inkscape.<p>* The node deletion behavior, it was so annoying, how you delete a node on a straight line and suddenly you get some soup.<p>* The awful color palette. You had to manually edit text files to get your own palettes, couldn't edit them in Inkscape. I, in fact, never managed to create a custom palette. Pinned colors seem to solve this.<p>* Lasso selection. It was soo fiddly to select a group of nodes. One missclick and you had to start from scratch, clicking on the tinny controls.<p>* Multithreaded rendering. The single-threaded software renderer is a misery for complex projects, or just zooming in. Now Inkscape is going to be 12 times faster on my machine<p>* Font selection was utter garbage, the new UI seems promising<p>* Patterns was also a constant source of frustration, looks like this release improves it.<p>This is exciting. I'm looking forward to use this new release.<p>Now please give me a dialog for key rebinding, similar to Krita. And better key binding discoverability.
