Open up Inkscape and type some text at a font size of say 30. Then change the font size to 64 and type another piece of text. OK. Then go and select either of the pieces of text and hit the "Text and Font" dialog and you get the correct font size indicated. However, scale either of the bits of text (larger or smaller) and then inspect them with the dialog. It still indicates the original size. This is not a bug I guess, but it raises the question of how can I tell what size my font is after scaling? I could put it in as an RFE but there may be a workaround or some way that I'm not familiar with-any suggestions?
Yeah. I've been meaning to change that since forever. Will do now. Scaling text must change its font size. Thanks for reminding me :)
Another problem that comes up frequently is that when I have rescaled several bits of text (these are on maps) I finally want to get them all to be the same font size. Is this possible? Ideally I'd like to say have them all at a font size of 8 but how to do it? The dropper does not work with text. Can it be done? or should I put that in as an RFE as well?
Once the scaled text will have its font size correspondingly set I guess that won't be a problem anymore.
