The second would be to have a view option which shows the above information as little labels that appear when you begin a drag operation. so next to the lines that the node effects would be size and curve information, a label near the node would tell you it's position and angle (maybe with on of those arcs to show what it is), now I know this is not useful to artist types because they don't so much design as just draw, but for creating regular complex shapes this information would be invaluable and having it near the object while the operation is being carried out would make it easy to understand as well as being closer to your eye.
You may want to talk to Mathieu Dimanche about this. I found his initial post on the list regarding this topic and I'd say it wouldn't hurt to contact him directly about it (his email is in the header for the message). http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=14084283
What do you all think of this idea?
I think it's a great idea... but as with the plans for other visual feedback it must be optional.
