Does Inkscape have a "wireframe" or "preview/outline mode"? This is again extremely useful when drawings get complex with many overlapping objects.
It
may allready be present but I have not found it yet. Please let me know
if
it is here.
I am pretty sure the answer is no. However, would someone confirm this please?
Not that I know of.
From a users point of view this command is extremely valuable.
One use is that it enables the user to pick an object that is buried inside a heap of other overlapping objects without having to go through object re-arrangements.
For this, I will program "select under" by ctrl-alt-clicking in selector. Not ideal, but works in many situations. Stay in one place and ctrl-alt-click repeatedly watching the statusbar that shows what is selected, it will cycle through the entire stack of objects at this point.
And lest I forget, the raise/lower commands need to be rewritten so that the selection, too, cycles through only the objects that overlap it, not all the objects of the document as now (this presently makes lower/raise almost unusable in large documents).
