1. It is no longer possible to scale/rotate patterns used to fill text

(related to changing the snap point for text?).

Reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.0 and 0.48+devel r9860 on OS X 10.5.8 Possibly not implemented in the new node tool?

Pattern editing is seriously broken at the moment, sorry :( I will investigate ways of mitigating this in a few hours.

Looks like I have fixed it. As a bonus we get multiple shape editing (e.g. editing 4 rects and 2 ellipses at the same time) for free in the node tool. The shape tools still can't handle many shapes at once though, and there are no multi-shape features.

See rev. 9867 in trunk, 9708 in stable.

I still don't see any pattern handles for text objects filled with a (stock) pattern in r9867 [1]. This worked in Inkscape 0.47 by selecting the pattern-filled text with the node tool and allowed to scale and rotate the pattern.

It works when selecting the text with one of the shape tools, which was unexpected to me, but it allows to change the knots of the pattern.

Could you maybe take a look at (just reported) bug #669162? Besides the missing feature in the new node tool, it can also cause Inkscape to crash after trying to stamp paths while dragging a node or its handle.
