Hi all,
Because people are starting to use LPE and perhaps make tutorials? ;) I'd like to settle on the names for these two effects:
They are now called: Path along path and Pattern along path in SVN.
I think I'll keep one named Pattern along path (in svg now it is called "skeletal"); this one mimics the extension. The original path is some curved path. And it has a path *parameter* that is taken as a pattern and bent along the original path.
The other one, I am thinking about "Bend path". The original path is the fish. And it has a path parameter that defines the curvature / the path along which to bend the fish, i.e. the now called 'bend path' parameter.
Picking a sensible name is important for inkscape's svg. The UI text can be changed, the SVG text not. (because it would break people's files)
Thanks a lot for your input, Johan
