Hi, sorry I did not know who to contact for it so I am mailing to the lists. In the https://wiki.inkscape.org/wiki/Release_notes/1.4, under New User Interface - ( Experimental and Optional ), where it says "If it is activated under Edit > Preferences > Interface > Dialogs : Text and Font dialog" should say "Edit > Preferences > Tools > Text Tool : Text and Font dialog". (at least for the released official beta, the option is there) Kind regards. -José

Wrong files being merged in merge request
by David Milkes 28 Nov '23

28 Nov '23

I created a branch out of my main fork from the manuals project. I used it only for changes to the Finding Your Way Around chapter of the Beginner's Guide. I now want to merge the changes to inkscape/inkscape-docs/manuals:master, but the request page is saying that the files that will be updated are those I already sent for a previous merge, and none of the Finding Your Way Around files are listed. Am I supposed to wait until the first merge is approved? What am I doing wrong? Thank you. -- *David Milkes - Technical Communications Cell: 917-797-0011 See my LinkedIn profile <http://www.linkedin.com/in/davidmilkestechcomm>* -- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. www.avast.com
