Hello,
Thanks Bulia for the reply.
Yes, this is in our RFE tracker for ages.
Before posting this suggestion I made a quick search through RFEs but didn't find a similar one... Can you please send me its #, so I can have a look at it and maybe add there the screenshots of corel I made?
Accelerated Simplify: similar to scrolling, a single Simplify (Ctrl+L) does a slight simplification, but invoking it several times in quick succession makes it act more and more aggressively on the selected objects. It is thus easy to apply the exact amount of simplification you need for each case.
Well yes, that sound quite reasonable, but the difference between Corel and Inkscape is then in the smoothness of this operation: in Corel it is only one single operation where I control its strength, and in Inkscape it is a serie of the same operation with the same strength. Maybe in the future (past 1.0 release?) this function can be updated in Inkscape to match the same smoothness as in Corel? Future will tell. :)
Thanks!
Molumen

Hi! If I may have a suggestion about the node simplification function of Inkscape: The idea is to enhance this function in such a way that Inkscape will simplify only a group of selected nodes.
Yes, this is in our RFE tracker for ages.
Also, another enhancement could be a smooth "on the fly" control over the simplification strengh/threshold (0-100%). This is also realised in Corel Draw (see attached screenshot "corel_node_optimizationtool.png")
From release notes for 0.38:

Perhaps not the best or most obvious feature, but it's there and it works.
