Well OK ... perfect hit, guys! You see it is a tool I use very infrequently.
Two remarks:
- current behaviour of the fill and stroke editor is imho
contra-intuitive as when selecting gradients and modifying them in this dialog, I expect Inkscape to switch to the gradient tool (when dropping the old editor, this problem should be gone, no?)
For the record, this bug report covers improvements to the F&S dialog that would compliment the changes to the gradient tool. It eventually (once the stand alone editor is completely gone) could be made so when clicking the edit button, it would just switch to the tool.
- the gradient tool is not discussed in the tutorials delivered along
with inkscape. For such an important tool I (and quite probably a novice user) expect an example or discussion in one of these tutorials
Our tutorials really need to be updated in general, including adding new tutorials for features like clipping/masking, filters, live path effects, etc.
