- Default font for text was too small when at the (default) full-size page view.
No problem. Feel free to change.
- The context menu for text should include a link to the Text and Font dialog.
OK with me. I just never use context menu, so someone else would need to do that.
- Changing font color should be easier to access via the context menu and/or the text and font properties dialog.
There's no "font color" in Inkscape (or in SVG). A text object is just an object, so it uses the same way to change its color as other objects.
- The zoom mouse cursor shows a '+' when zooming in. It should show a '-' when you're zooming out (shift-mouse click)
Yes. And all other cursors need to be redrawn too.
- It would be handy to have a way to select objects "under" the object on top. E.g., a modifier to the left mouse click that would cause it to select the next object down in the stack for each click.
Yes, I was planning to do that by ctrl+alt+click. Keep getting sidetracked into other things :)
- When you select 2+ objects and right click, having access to some of the 'Align' and/or 'Boolean' commands could be helpful.
OK with me.
- When you're editing a multi-stop gradient and then close the dialog and do 'undo's, it appears to undo each individual edit to the gradient rather than just undoing the entire editing transaction.
Not an entire transaction. Rather, sequences of similar actions (such as movements of the position tracker or color edits) should be lumped together for undo. This is easy to do, just pass a string key when you call sp_document_done, and adjacent actions that have the same value of that key will be undone as one. Simarilius: can you please look into it, see e.g. keyboard object move functions for an example of lumped-together actions.
- There should be a way to not only convert a text object into a node object, but also to convert the individual letters in the text object to separate text or node objects.
It should _always_ convert a text string into a group of paths, one path per letter, instead of the single compound path as now. As for breaking a text object into per-letter text objects, what might be the use? With kerning, you can move letters freely without breaking, and text remain editable as text.
- Pasting text from open office to inkscape or vice versa.
Why OO only? We have an RFE for making Inkscape work with system clioboard on all platforms, that will take care of that.
- Paste style is very cool and works as expected. Some sort of 'paste size' might also be useful, if you want to force a range of shapes to have exactly the same dimensions.
I don't see how size could be "pasted". Instead I'm thinking about improvements to the Align dialog, one of which might involve a new alignment mode that is allowed to stretch/squeeze, not only move, objects.
