For that I need to know what is faster -- to select one of available formats in a combobox, or to type three letters after the dot in the filename to let Inscape automagically figure out, what export algorithm to use.
I prefer to have the combo box because I hate requiring file extensions for anything. I think that they are an evil hack, but I understand the need to support them.
the combo box is useful because a simple user is not expected to know which is the list of all supported formats for export and in the absence of this list has to guess in order to type the extension name. for the advanced user, typing may be faster, so both options should be present.
Before I start doing discussed things like
- get rid of bytes counting label - add combo for file format - add hideable preview - HIGifize
I'd like to know, whether I should keep in mind batch export. I haven't found any RFE neither at SF that has "batch" in summary, nor in Wiki.
Judging by my own experience using usual guides for slicing is not very nice, and it's not really awaited by people with Adobe or any similar background. Again, my experience maydiffer from yours.
