[Inkscape-devel] Strange fill/stroke settings in freehand tools after fresh install

Hi,

after freshly installing Inkscape (rev. 21524), the Pen/Pencil tools produce lines which are filled black but don't have any stroke. This is very counterintuitive. The small info field in the toolbar (on the right hand side) displays "Fill: None, Stroke: Black (000000/1)" (these are indeed the values specified in preferences-skeleton.h for the freehand tools). However, both in the Fill & Stroke dialog and in the Preferences it says: "Fill: Unset, Stroke: Unset", and this probably explains the strange appearance of the drawn lines. What's happening here? Why are the values in preferences-skeleton.h not correctly taken into account? I think this should definitely be fixed before 0.47.
