Hello,
One feature that would be really nice if one can "node-edit" an image, which crops it. What I mean is: select an image, switch to the node tool, then knots appear on the 4 corners of the image. When the knots are moved, a clipping mask is applied to the image and the knots (and corresponding path) belong to this clipping path.
Instead of an "image-cropping-tool" wouldn't it be better to give users an easier way to edit already-applied clip paths?
Have you tried current trunk or 0.47?
It seems the only way to do this currently, is un-applying the clip path, editing it and re-applying it, which is too complicated. There should be an option, to show the clip paths (on double click) of clipped objects, and able to edit it, while the object is still clipped. (Or better yet: ability to adjust the transparency of out-of-clip regions)
The Node Tool Controls Bar has buttons now to edit applied clippaths/masks so they can easily be edited. Works here...
