Hello all, jsut wanted to thank all of you developers for creating this amazing piece of software, just made a nice Christmas card (sorry, "season's greetings" card, gotta be PC these days) for my boss with it and he loved it.
Anyway, there's this feature request I made long ago and every so often some other guy pipes in with a "me too" and I get a reminder in my email about it.
It;s a request to make inkscape remember dialogs window status: https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/171579
That is, make dialogs such as layers, paint/stroke, align etc. stay open if I opened them in a previous session. This is really important guys! It's really helpful not to have to open them again whenever you open a file. It doesn't have to be a file-specific feature, it should be global, so once you set up the interface to your liking, it should just stay this way across all documents you open later.
Also, the layers dialog always opens very small on my machine (showing maybe 2 layers) and I always have to resize it.
I will thank you without end if you decide to implement this on 0.48.
