Hi Friends, I just was wondering something. Keeping in mind, as many of you know, I'm not very technically oriented. So this could be totally impossible. But it seems like it might be, and I guess it can't hurt to ask. I'm often doing a lot of node editing, and often snapping nodes to a pixel grid. The part that slows me down the most is positioning the mouse pointer precisely over a node, to be able to click it (select it) or move it. Would there be any way to give Inkscape an optional feature that would snap the mouse to something - like have it snap to nodes or handles? I mean, snap the mouse pointer that is not dragging something yet. The snap of the mouse would have to be disabled by the selection click, I guess, so that you could move the node. Well maybe there's a better way to accomplish this? Since recent versions (I think 0.91 is when I first noticed it) you can make the nodes and handles larger. But I find that blocks the drawing too much. I've also tried making the Grab Sensitivity bigger. But that doesn't seem to affect selecting nodes. And yes, I definitely drag a selection box, when possible. But often it's not possible. Of course I would be open to other ways, to make selecting individual nodes easier. But I thought I'd ask if it's possible. It seems like it ought to be possible. Actually, this could help people who don't have very good mouse control, to be able to use Inkscape easier. Oh! And it would be totally awesome for the mouse to be able to snap to a guide, because those puppies can be so frustrating to grab sometimes. Maybe such a feature would come under the heading of accessibility?
Thank you very much, brynn
