Latest svn has ctrl+scaling (to preserve aspect ratio) broken. Carl, this looks like a side effect of your snapping changes, can you please look into it?
I'm reporting it here because it's a rather major breakage that needs to be fixed ASAP.

Hi,
Sorry about that, it's almost certainly my fault. I'll take a look in the morning.
Cheers

Thanks, but now there's another problem which didn't happen before. Grab this file:
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/inkscape/doc-docbook/trunk...
select all, and start Ctrl+dragging the lower right handle diagonally, so that mouse stays _below_ the shapes, scling it up, then down, then up again etc. Most of the time during drag the shapes maintain the ratio, but sometimes they "flash" down to the mouse, i.e. stretch vertically to the mouse cursor breaking the ratio even though you keep Ctrl pressed. If you drag very slowly, you can even freeze it in that broken-ratio state and get wrong result. So something is broken here, this kind of thing should never happen.
Can anyone else reproduce this?

This should be fixed now.

Hi developers.
"Ctrl+scaling broken" was originally my report. I can confirm this issue is gone. Which is great.
Question is: Should I leave this report opened for you to close it, or should I do it myself? Altough, this program is great, I'm sure there will be many other problems to indicate to. I must know how to behave in the future. :)
Thanx for the great job, Vlada
a couple of warnings seen from the latest inkscape from SVN, while playing around with 30,000+ node paths. This is on Mac OS 10.4.6

Please feel free to close bugs when you can confirm they are fixed.
Thanks, Bryce
