Hi everyone, in the last month+ I have conducted a tiny survey with a few fresh Inkscape users. A mixture of ethnographic research in design and 'papercuts' by mr. Siegel. ;) (http://davidsiegel.org/one-hundred-paper-cuts/) I asked a few colleagues to try using inkscape for some time and put down all the little irritations they find. I tried to systematize the list somewhat, but that could use some more work probably. They are mostly small inconsistencies, unnecessarily complex jargon, etc. Anyhow, it's a list of roughly 100+ small issues (some with suggested simple corrections), a la:
-- Inkscape preferences: Color management: 'Black point compensation', the tip says: 'enables black point compensation' not too informative. -- Inkscape preferences: Interface. 'Enable dynamic relayout'... Technical jargon. -- Commands Bar: Import: The Tip says: 'Import bitmap or SVG into this document' but actually it imports so much more (see import in the file:import) -- Text and Font panel: The 'Layout' area is a misnomer. Solution: The correct title would be: 'Text alignment and direction'. (Alignment being: Left, centered, right, justified. Direction: horizontal/vertical). ...etc.
What would be the best way to present those? Should I submit them as bugs? Should I try to out down the solution suggestions for the issues, too?
Thanks.
Alex.
