Hi,
playing with the 29nov04 build on win2k, I got a very bad bug with spiral
Here is the way to reproduce it : Start inkscape Draw a spiral, then set its divergence to 0.00 Select the spiral, and switch to node or spiral tool Try to modify the spiral with the mouse (inner or outer handle) -> crash with an error pop up : **Error**: file sp-spiral.cpp line 446 (NR::sp_spiral_get_xy(const SPSpiral*, gdouble)): assertion failed: (t>=0.0) aborting... I don't think it has been reported yet.
By the way, I'm wondering about the toolbar: being in node tool, when selecting a shape (spiral, ellipse, rectangle, star), it displays node commands, that are not applicable to shapes. would it be possible to have it switch to the appropriate toolbar ? (example : selecting a rectangle -> rectangle tools, then selecting a path -> node tools, ...) Shall I submit a RFE for this ?
Regards,
Matiphas

I cannot reproduce this. Both handles move OK. And in any case I would not call this a very bad one, since divergence=0 is not very useful in practice - the spiral then reduces to a circle.
Anyway, please submit a bug report and we'll look into it.

And what if I clicked on a rect accidentally - I want to edit paths, but it switched me to rect tool. I now need to return to node tool manually. Annoying.

I think hes suggesting it stay node edit mode, but offers the rect toolbar when you select a rect, so if you selected a path again you'd get back the normal node tools. Not sure how easy it would be to do, but an interesting idea.

I think he means switching only the aux toolbar, not tools. So, you'd remain in the node tool, but you'd get the aux toolbar for rects. Which makes some sense to me actually.

Build 28/11 win32 2000.
I am confirming Gerauds spiral bug. It happens whenever the divergence is set to 0.00. Inkscape has to be closed down by repeatedly shutting windows and then restarted. It is annoying because it is a bit hard to get rid off when you are in the middle of doing something.

Yes I apologize for my bad explanation. But it is the idea
